    Bearcat Joins the Formation (December 17, 2025)

    It handled beautifully, but needed to iron out two serious issues with its beam weapons. First; the location of the tachyon cannons on the wingtips resulted in a convergence point with a significantly limited field. As a result you had to maintain a rather specific distance from your target to...

    Wing Commander 1 AI enhanced Characters

    Looks a lot like how I picture Fleming's James Bond

    Wing Commander 1 AI enhanced Characters

    Pretty good. Needs a bit more of that constant look of disdain and arrogance that Tom Wilson brought to the character.

    False Colors Chpt 9: Belisarius ?

    I would say the bigger issue is that we had 5 Wing Commander games in which the concept of Pilgrims was never mentioned or even hinted at.

    Wing Commander Arena End of Life FAQ (June 24, 2024)

    This was the worst way to revive Wing Commander IMHO. It showed no confidence in the IP. No surprise it did not kickstart a revival. I am, like everyone here, a hardcore fan and never even considered playing this game. Mileage varies I suppose.

    Best Weapon Combo

    The Morningstar's triple particle guns are also quite good. Their position right under the cockpit means all three will hit at almost all times - maximizing damage.

    False Colors Chpt 9: Belisarius ?

    My brother had Pilgrim Truth at some point...but I never was interested. Don't like the whole Pilgrim thing at all. It had no place in Wing Commander and it was a shameless attempt by Chris Roberts to try to piggy-back on Star Wars hype that had been building since Lucas announced the prequels...

    Keep this stuff coming! Paladin, Hunter and Iceman all look near perfect IMO. Long Live Wing Commander!

    Perennial Rumor: Wing Commander Making a Comeback? (May 15, 2021)

    WC3 really nailed it. It balanced both gameplay and the FMV beautifully. WC4 was too heavy with FMV (especially for the time), and WCP scaled it back too much. Other games with FMV (or so I am led to believe) just didn't seem to bother trying to get quality performances from the actors. WC3 is...

    Perennial Rumor: Wing Commander Making a Comeback? (May 15, 2021)

    Do big companies do Kickstarters? Or "matching" Kickstarters, like they will spend an equivalent amount to what is backed by the public?
