Re: Do you want [V] to make FS3?
Well, according to gog it still belongs to Interplay....Anyway, if [V] acquired the rights, I'm sure they'd make it known.... :nervous:

Weird that there would be this kind of suspicious threads turning up when Gen Disc has turned to page 666.

Re: Do you want [V] to make FS3?
we should all agree on this one I guess... if there's got to be an FS3, then it should come right from the same people responsible from the 1st and the 2nd and no one else.

If they make it, everyone here will play it and then some will love it some will hate it for sure.

From my part I would really love to see where the original story was headed, even if it turns out to be crappy.. I really want to know.

Re: Do you want [V] to make FS3?
TBH the storyline probably wouldn't go anywhere. At least, it wouldn't have much to do with the first 2 since they came out a decade ago and the current gaming generation wouldn't have played them.

isn't the original staff that made FS1 & FS2 still part of the volition crew? If so... then maybe someone over there might have a pritty good idea on how to keep the story going.

Re: Do you want [V] to make FS3?
My concern is that they might revert to FS1's relatively simple story structure. Who was the one guy who contributed most of the FS2 story? He seems to be the key.

(Now, granted, he might have done FS1 as well.)

 
Re: Do you want [V] to make FS3?
I think they should make a frikkin awesome cutscene with snatches of voice from the first 2 games, allowing players to get the gist of what's happening.
Sig nuked! New one coming soon!

As long as it has FRED, or similar modding tools which usually only come for PC only, I am happy :).

Re: Do you want [V] to make FS3?
According to Interplay's third quarter SEC filings, they are trying to get funding to make the Fallout MMO.  No mention of Freespace anywhere in the report.  I don't think they plan to work on it any time soon.  But please, continue speculating.  It's fun to watch :)

I would've thought you would have more of an opinion on this. Nonetheless

FS3 is still FS3

While I'd definitely play FS3, it probably wouldn't last as long as FSopen...

I won't simply because I find that things are currently quite all right. Our community's attached by the admins' duct tape, we've got Swantz and his mirror site freespacemods.net, the chat room's being run by chief1983, and Wanderer patrols the Wiki. There really isn't much to ask for from FreeSpace.

I see your point there. The only thing I'd honestly want at the moment from V is the rest of the storyline. Fulfill my 'Inner Child'

If Volition do make FS3 it won't be the same guys who made the first two so really who cares anymore?

Well it would be, I mean apparently most of the dev crew is still at V, including the writers, or one of them at least, if there were more.
