    15 Years of Wing Commander - What Was Your First Time Like?

    I started playing WC about 4 months after it hit the shelves. I was 15 at the time and even then, games weren't cheap... but my father was when it came to my allowance. I'd been trying to think of a way to get some cash to buy it when I went over to my friend's house and, lo and behold...

    Yeah, I remember Freedom Flight... thought it was a great book! I played all the way through SM1 but only got part way through SM2. I guess that's where my confusion came from. Thanks for jogging the ol' memory.

    Back on the uniform topic... In WCP, didn't the Space Force duty uniforms have red undershirts? (Hence the CIC jumpsuits having that look) Thought that would be worth mentioning as, only in WC1 and WCP do you see undershirts. (Though, with the graphics being what they were, I sometimes...

    Hmmm... I guess that's what happens when your chance of making sequels is dependent upon player or audience response: You suddenly find yourself given the opportunity to develop a new story, but in order for it to work, you have to contradict some of what you said earlier. (a la Zephram...

    Gee... Is it bad to express opinions all of a sudden? Or is it the fact that I'm just a "cadet" on this board and therefore need a nice virtual hazing?

    Hoboy... A case of Star Trek-style story contradiction.

    Actually, Blair was a Commodore, not a Commander. I suppose that the makers felt that appropriate as Blair is seen as an admiral at the end of WC4 when he makes the comment about using Black Lance fighters to supress a rebellion. Anyway, whether it makes sense or not, it is what the games...

    I wouldn't even consider the movie in this discussion. In the case of the Wing Commander Movie, I'd simply call it a case of Hollywood-induced alteration. As a stand-alone film with little to no bearing on the games, the movie was okay. I'd call it a nice tribute, but leave it at that. As...

    Mods to other games

    I've seen mods done to that game Nexus, but has anyone done a WC mod to Homeworld or Homeworld 2? Just wondering. - Mufossa

    Promotions and Medals in Remakes and Sequels

    My WC experience Yeah, like everyone else, I made it to Major in WC1 and then to Lt. Col. in SM1... and landed all 12 possible ribbons and a few bronze, silver, and gold stars. I also got the Golden Sun. Anyone get the Medal of Honor? Mufossa

    Promotions and Medals in Remakes and Sequels

    Hey all! I was just wondering if any of you folks making remakes or sequels to the WC games would consider adding in the promotion and medals concepts from WC 1. I always thought it was really cool to advance in rank and have more "chicken gut" on your chest after playing for a while. -...
