Default Re: SE:Starfury

All that is true, but after messing around with Starfury for a while, I find that it's still very limited. Suicide Junkie's P&N mod helps make it more fun but only for a little while. The game is very pretty, but everything is too simplistic, the 2D plane, the flight model, all astronomical bodies are fixed objects, no physics to speak of, etc.

This sounds harsh, but aside from being a much prettier game, I would say that Starfury is no match, gameplay-wise, for games like Elite, Frontier, Hardwar or even Privateer.
