The game will be twice as fun as Freelancer!

Freelancer is a very fun, if slightly grindy, single player game. The customization left something to be desired (simply put the best modules money can buy and mix quick and slow guns to prevent shield regeneration) but i still play it from time to time.

Even compared to DayZ it's empty and meaningless. With no economy or any sort of progression I can't see even the hardcore Citizens playing it very long.

In the case of DayZ i think the emptiness actually helped the premise, since your supposed to feel the isolation and solitude of a lone survivor. Also they did not ask for 45$ to play with a poo poo ship.

Wtf.... This game really does have everything!!! How the hell did he train that horse to defecate on command?

I assumed they were asking for hair effects that another small studio with 100 million dollars of well-managed money had: http://gfycat.com/DamagedMajesticConey

The best part is that the horse poop is not only "for the lulz". You can command the horse to drop a deuce in the middle of a road and any wheeled vehicles that run in it will swerve and stop for a moment, allowing you to spring ambush or sneak under a truck to be carried inside a fortified base.

quote:

In our setting of Banshee, there were ten stimpires which were united under ten galaxies. They were all allied as the United Galactic Stimpires, until one day, when the Sixth Stimpire noticed that the Fourth Stimpire was adopting laws that were against the regulations of the UGS. High-ranking military servants noticed that at the end of their favourite sporting event, the losing side was being rounded up, with all 11 players wailing in despair. They then noticed that the center of the stadium was now revealing a large, cylindrical container with a sharp floor. The floor was in the shape of a grinding grater, except there were several discs each turning very slowly, one being further out than the other from its center point. They were then pushed in by very powerful cybernetic stadium security officers, and the container was sealed up. It was then, to the horror of the colonels, that there was blood being smeared against the glass of the machine. They both left for their transit van, only to be stopped by Fourth Stimpire Enforcers. They demanded that they get past, only to be told that the Fourth Stimpire is a sovereign, socialist empire which listens to its people. They were then being transported to a greyscale soundproof room, with very sharp machinery decorating the room from all over.

They were never heard from or even seen again. The only traces of them were blood trails located in the very room. The Fourth Stimpire had announced to the UGC that it was now allied with Vanduul forces, and any attack will result in immediate deplanetation, much to the dismay of the UGC. The Seventh Stimpire warned them that the other nine would revoke their UGC rights if they carried on, but they did far from what they were demanding. The Fourth Stimpire didn't massacre the First Landmass population, but left them in the worst pain known in the universe for eternity. The drug was capable of keeping the victim the same age as they were, halting growth and aging, whilst keeping them alive forever. All growth cells are killed and the drug repeats any respiratory cycles.

The other nine declared war on the Fourth Stimpire, which ultimately led to the demise of the First, Eighth, Ninth, Fifth and Tenth Stimpires. They were deplanetated, all of their planets were razed and reduced to nothing but an asteroid field, a reminder of the power of the Fourth Stimpire, and a historical monument, and a book, a tale of what was once a mighty, populated planet.

The Seventh Stimpire ordered their planets to be relocated out of the range of the Fourth Stimpire Satelitation Force through the use of planet movement technology. As the Seventh Stimpire was completely artificial, the planets were able to be relocated to a faraway place in the universe. The Second Stimpire however were unable to relocate, as they were natural to the full extent and had a ban on fighting on any kind. Weapons were not permitted in the territory, and anyone caught fighting would be exiled permanently from the planet. They were the Second Law, as the rest of the universe know them by.

The other stimpires were unable to relocate aswell, and ordered their planets to be mined until they were fresh clean, and turn artificial, so they could be moved away from threat. They did not want to meet the same fate as their brethren. As a result, the war that remains going on to this day, is now a fierce, stalemate battle. The United Earth Empire eventually joined to help them against the Fourth Stimpire in 2754, 100 years after the war began, but this would also lead to Vanduul interception, as the Vanduul were warmongering to the point of following the UEE's every move and intercepting it.

hypothetically, if sandi had zero involvement in this game, do you think it would it be finished (albeit closer to the original scope) by now?

Sandi is but the nitrous oxide on the Star Engine himself. She's allegedly accelerated the burn rate with empire building in LA and extravagant personal spending, but she is not to blame for the scope creep that has doomed this project. That's all Chris.

Oh. Ok. It wouldn't have surprised me one bit if you could actually hang under them too � the tricks available in the drat game never seem to end � but it would just have been so annoying to find that one out at this stage. Getting in and out of the back of a truck exposes you so much more than being able to crawl under them would � think of the infiltrations that could have happened!

Not really. Depending on whom you ask, some will say that playing the previous games will either heighten or lesser your appreciation for part 3 and/or for the series as a whole. You know the characters a bit more and might have formed some connection or opinion before you meet them in 3, which may further inform some of your decisions in the game, but that's about it.
