I guess an eventual FS3 will be compatible with all kinds of FS2 modding. The devs must be stupid to prevent tons and tons of mods made for FS2 from being imported into FS3....even if the game itself is a complete failure there will be a lot of stuff the players could appreciate...

Whatever Interplay does, they had better not mess it up like they did with Descent 3.

Don't let Hunter hear you say that.

Some of the threads on the FreeSpace section of the forum are pissing me off so ****ing badly.

[Fenrir]

They may be, but what can you expect? This is going to cause those FS Fans who aren't part of HLP and those who are to end up crossing paths, and of course there will be conflicts (and there already have been). And we need to remember that we aren't all perfect over here, either. Looking back on the Derek Smart fiasco, it's pretty obvious that certain members of the community shot themselves in the foot worse than the damage from the actual opposition. Let's not repeat that kind of thing plz.

Well their most common post is "I'd like a FS3" in various variants.

Damn forum doesn't let me get past the login screen when I use Firefox. It accepts my password, but any action (or inaction for a few seconds) takes me back to the login screen.

I had the same exact issue. It works fine in Google Chrome, though.

[Al Tarket]

password lockout aside.

im not asking for a variant snail im asking to see if the real deal will come one day. im willing to make a bet in a comment that fs3 might be out within a few years because if decent 4 hit's pay dirt, why not fs3 in that case.

Derek Smart tried to take fs2 away from you guys and failed claiming he did the whole thing. heck even JAD and its variants took the pee out of Derek.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

JAD could take a pee out of DRM if Axem wanted it to.

FS3 is still uncertain, so don't see it as a cue to go , "AHH HELP RUN!"

From the posts I've seen most of the HLP members who have accounts over there support an FS3.

I am strictly opposed to any FS3.

Is Snail an idiot? (Y/N)

[Spicious]

The whole discussion is moot as it's financially non viable, at least if it were to retain the style of earlier FS games.

I'm not strictly opposed to FS3, but looking at the conditions in which it would be developed, it would suck. :V: can't develop it because they're owned by THQ or whatever, and I doubt that any but the most gamer-friendly developers would adhere to many of the policies under which FS1/2 were developed. A good FS3 can't happen, or rather, it's quite likely not going to happen.

[Akalabeth Angel]

I like how people assume a game that hasn't even started to be developed will suck.

What about Duke Nukem Forever?

That'll have pole dancers so

What if (the hypothetical) FS3 will have Vasudan pole dancers?

If you know it doesn't come from how can you expect it to be fascinating? I'm not saying that devs are the best in circulation but they surely know how to create the true FS3.

Possibly not even. AFAIK most of the devs that made FS1/2 are gone.

[Inquisitor]

Lots of good devs out there. V was great, but V is no longer V, they are THQ, with different masters, different priorities, and different staff.

This is a thread that is oddly violating one of the oldest rules of this forum...
