Re: OT: modern day Elite? X2:Threat on the way
naaarf.
transalation: this game is an impressive example of it's genre, and i look forword to many fascinating hours of play.
this is a good space sim that needs advertising, i think.

Re: OT: modern day Elite? X2:Threat on the way
Looks cool.
It could be way better than the much over-hyped freelancer. Well, freelancer was not so bad, but I really need the feel of a joystick in these sort of games. Then most of enemy ships used to come straight at me instead of splitting targets with my buddies. And random missions were ALWAYS "go there and shoot ". Boring.
Overall a disapointment. I regret the money I put in it. If I put 1 €cent in X2 and get disapointed, I will go directly for Puke's head in every single PBW I can find him.

Re: OT: modern day Elite? X2:Threat on the way
Ahh, Elite. My once favourite game. I still think thay had the best 3D radar map made.
And in the sequels, the stellar map was brilliant aswell.
Looking forward to this on.

Re: OT: modern day Elite? X2:Threat on the way
Would you like to play the original elite again? Some very kind and dedicated person has ported it to java and dropped it onto their website for your enjoyment:

Re: OT: modern day Elite? X2:Threat on the way
It's good but I can't decrease the speed, I don't use an american keyboard.
Edit 1:
Hey, what if I press Ctrl ALT f1....
Will have to try.
Edit 2:
It's windows, not as good as DOS used to be.
Will have to add it first in the control panel....
Work...You don't have permission to do this!, will have to wait until I get home.
