Terran Command, hands down. Always knew what he was talking about. :D

The only problem with FS1 Command was that his brothers had taken over the entire GTA fleet.

It's probably not discrimination, it's just that most of us (well, at least me) still hate the FS2 Command for the "Avoid The Beams And You Won't Get Hit" Moment.  :hopping:

Re: Who was the better command
i preferred the fs2 command, he gave you an order, and you had to follow it to the letter, you failed its your problem. he also gives support to the collossus to destroy the sath.

and the 'you fly into it, what do you expect!', he makes an example if you get it wrong. i always learn from a second mistake thanks to fs2 command.

Re: Who was the better command
I'll vote for FS1 command. They just seem to be a bit better with the pilot.

Yeah! FS1 was better!

"see if you can get into the lucifers bay, pilot!"

yeah thats real smart :p

 
Re: Who was the better command
FS2 command.  I don't like him, but at least he didn't send me into a shivan armada in a broken down fighter, then advise me to dock with the enemy command ship.

"Avoid the beams and you won't get hit" annoyed me, but "Oh my god, it's the lucifer!  See if you can get into it's fighter bay!"  annoyed me much, much more.

Re: Who was the better command
Freespace 2 command felt like there was a much deeper plot behind it, whereas Freespace 1 it was just a voice in your head

I thought that was a cool idea actually. Infiltrate the sucker, fire some weapons inside its fighterbay, cause some damage. See also: Anakin Skywalker, Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace

 
Re: Who was the better command
Which, would've made perfect sense, if command hadn't made it perfectly clear that if you fire one shot, the shivans are gonna say "Hey,lookie there, a broken down dragon with terran weapons.....KILL IT!".

I found him annoying because of the stupid things he told you to do, such as to destroy the Maelstrom's cannon (not a bad idea in itself, but if you didn't, the other idiot got mad at you) or to lure the Shivans to the Renenet before destroying them.

Re: Who was the better command
Fs1 command was like the inexperienced space faring command with only it's own experiences to draw upon. Fs2 command was the intermediate experienced space faring command with more than it's own experiences to draw upon and with stuff to hide. I think it's obvious to say and say again command had one hell of a big secret objective in the works.
They knew about bosch and etak, so they probably knew about the knossos much ahead of time, so they probably also had the meson bomb ready to go and appear to be in meer testing :drevil:
Every pilot's goal is to rise up in the ranks and go beyond their purpose to a place of command on a very big ship. Like the colossus; to baseball bat everyone.

Re: Who was the better command
Actually I think FS1 command wanted you to board the Lucy and single handedly destroy it from inside out like in STAR WARS: Dark Forces.

 
Re: Who was the better command
Semirelated question: Are the FS1 voices in the FS2 to FS1 port? Cause I've only played FS2, so I'd be a bit biased.
