Re: You know you've played too much Freespace when...
when you pretend you are a mara trying to scan items in reality that are so-called "freighters"

LMAO!

I drive a van, so that's not much a problem, but I have consistently had to brake hard because I was thinking that I was "flying" formation with the car in front of me....

So? You just pretend you're in a captured Seraphim (or in your van's case, a Vinhyachal  :P) instead.

actually, I'm a pretty good driver. That van has four-wheel disc brakes with an ABS system. It'll stop on a dime, but throw everything in the cabin forward....

...Whenever you see a semi-truck or dumpster you run up to it and try to scan it.

I know I've played too long when I'm driveing down the road and the intersection in front of me looks like a jump node. I have however noticed that my truck doesn't launch countermeasures when I hit the button, and the wepons systems are inop.

Actually guys I'm a excelent driver, no tickets in 25 years of driving, I just want to put one across teh bow of teh id10ts that sit at a green light and look at it like deer in the headlights.

You know you've played FS too much when, during sex, you say "This is the GTVA Colossus requesting permission to dock", and then you have the woman say "Docking approved".

I've never played too much Freespace...


...but I think I did play Red Baron too much.

I played it enough that I had several nights when I played it in my head while getting to sleep (yes, I could play it in my head consciously), and then dreamt about playing the game, and it was not terribly different from the actual game. :nervous:

I swear, I knew the AI's tricks so through and through that my head just randomized them one after another and I actually didn't even win every time.

Re: You know you've played too much Freespace when...
That's a very good mentionable considering the overall knowabout of fs2 in the general gaming public :D
Not that i get answered with wtf, i get answered with, "you're too ****ing obsessed with this game."

You know you've played too much FreeSpace when you thought (if ever so briefly) of doing your creative writing and art A levels on them. Ugh. :rolleyes:

When at school you see somebody you hate and you look for a flamethrower under the chair....

And when you realize that there is no flamethrower, you say him "Look that ventilation duct. There must be something wrong in that. Go take a look..."  :D
