Hey, Baby Geniuses was very big at my school a few years ago ;) .

Ice Pirates was a movie made to punish all of humanity :p ! If you see it run!!!

Just getting the basics right doesn't make it a good movie. I could make a movie that covers the basics in my backyard, but that doesn't make it good. The movie really isn't that bad though, it just didn't seem to be a good interpretation of Wing Commander. Seeing a Dralthi blow up on screen, is...

That is a very valid point. In almost every sci-fi game, we have energy weapons that we can see fly through the air. A laser doesn't have any real travel since it is light. Therefor, you need to shoot at something extremely far away, like from planet to planet, to have any real need to lead your...

However, the lasers wouldn't make any noise to begin with, and things like Mass Drivers would make a little wooshing noise through the air. Something you would be unable to notice, especially in the cockpit with a helmet on.

Wow, I never thought my one question would get this kind of response :D !!!

The problem with using planets as points of reference is that they are moving at a pretty good clip too, just in a circle. Or, you could use them how we do with the space shuttle. Whe say how fast the shuttle goes relative to the speed the earth orbits, so instead of saying the shuttle is...

I've got to disagree with you and be the negative nanny here I'm afraid. EA has so many successful franchises that are coming out with new editions every year, like Madden. Why would EA even risk bring back a new game from an old series from a genre that appears to be dying out. The only way I...

Well, the movie was a bit of a let down in my opinion. The ships were nothing like the game. The actors sucked. The Kilrathi looked bad. However, I don't think I'd slame it that hard. For me, it seemed a bit more like a good made for TV movie, but not something I'd pay eight bucks to go see...

That is why the whole supership idea is useless. Especially if a group of bombers could take one out. I'd rather have a 100 Excaliburs and Longbows each launched from a hanger with an engine than a massive Dreadnought/Supership. Just think about what kind of a blow it would be to lose one of...

The sound thing just makes the game a good one. If you are really looking for realism, you can just turn the volume off and turn the voices full on, if that is an option. As for me, I LOVE my big explosions. KABOOM!!!

I would caution against the Maverick style callsigns. We already have one charecter named suicide, who does that sound like? So, I would advise something a little more unique perhaps. Then again, Gambit does sound pretty nice...

Looks very good indeed :D ! You might have a future in this kind of stuff if this is one of you first works. Keep it up!

The scoop theory certainly clears things up, but where the heck do you find this stuff LOAF?

cough casey cough

Don't you just being able to make stuff like that up. Jump Drives, inertial dampeners, anti-matter guns, it's all good in sci-fi :D !!!

Yeah well, whats a game without nice loud explosions :D ? Also, to add to what you were saying about twists and turns lowering the thrust, it seems plossible. However, a human pilot can barely survive 9gs which you get turning sharply at a relativly slow speed. If you snapped a Ferret around...

Strike that whole several thousand kilometers, it actually said just a few hundred, which makes a whole lot more sense.

I saw some info about some of Confed's carriers and how they have a several thousand kilometer bubble around them filled with fighters flying CAP patrols. It might be your klick theory, but I seem to recall reading kilometers, I'll check back with the solid info later. However, if this is true...

If by CS 2, you mean Crimson Skies 2, the XBox version is the closest ting the series got to a sequel. It is way different then the original, which I think is way better. Anyway, if you are interested in flight seems, the PC is the way to go. CS, Secret Weapons, and Robotech are all a lot more...
