I think he means missile weapons :) Many Wing Commander games have had these cheats built into the options menu, in order for less experienced players to beat tougher areas.

Space rangers 2 is awesome. It's like four games in one. You have the main turn based space part of the game (which is IMO kind of like a mix between star control 2 and privateer), the planetary RTS part, the asteroids style shooter part, and the text based RPG part. I highly recommend this...

Weird, in regular FS2 when you use TC even though the speech lags, everything else plays at the right speed. Maybe it's something to do with the way the Saga team uses FRED?? An easy solution, I would think, would be to disable time compression as a bindable key.

I think it's cool that you're disciplined for not following orders, but I also find that just getting booted out of the mission is somewhat... limiting on the player's freedom. If I fail to get into formation I would rather have my wing leader say something like "get into formation NOW!" and...

IRT key bindings: What I do is move all of my bindings to the right side of the keyboard, as well as ALT and SHIFT modifiers. I have my thumb placed on alt, and one of the side buttons on my mouse is mapped to shift (you can also map this to a joystick button, providing your software will let...

Found a bug on the second mission. Right after launching from the Wellington I started playing with Shelton slide. I found that I could maintain high afterburner speed by using the slide, and I slid in that way behind the carrier for awhile. Once I was pretty far behind the carrier I terminated...

Hey guys, I just thought of something that could really help streamline the game. As I see it, the autopilot is nice, but kind of gets old after awhile (especially when multiple attempts are needed to beat the mission). I imagine that in the full release AP would get downright boring pretty...

What's supposed to happen? The mission just ends after one cruiser is destroyed?

Try mouse control. A good mouse is more accurate than a joystick, but you will often need to recenter it, which IMHO makes it worse overall, but still far better than using a keyboard.

That didn't happen in the one game I played. One of the kirathi cruisers dies, and right after that the dover (is that the name?) exploded, and the other human Cruiser destroyed the remaining Kilrathi. The debriefing then told me that both cruisers were lost, even though one of them was still...

Yeah, I got that much, but you really should have a separate debriefing for if only one of the cruisers survives. Having the debriefing not match up to the events of the mission is generally considered a bad FREDing practice.

Just finished playing and... wow that last mission was intense! Found a bit of a bug though: If the friendly Cruiser (not sure what the name was, it began with 'd' though) is destroyed, the debriefing will report that both cruisers were destroyed, even when the other one survives.

I can't help but be impressed with the performance of this build. Running on a crap integrated graphics (geforce 6150) laptop, with all details max. Getting awesome frame rates (with no indication of frame rate drops) and amazing details. Good job to the modelers designers and coders - this game...

Just completed second mission, game looks great so far. There is a bit of a problem when you press F1 in the main menu though.

Try going into the configurator and select generic hardware from the menu. If that doesn't work, see what happens when you select 'no sound'.

The rumor I've heard is that System Shock 3 is being developed by the Godfather team. IMO, out of the franchises listed I think that Ultima has the highest chance of being revisted, due to the success of WoW, System Shock has the second highest chance as there are already whispers of a new...

Clam down, you make yourself sound really stupid when you go insane like that. I'm tired now, but I'll refute your claims tommorow, k? (User was banned for this post)

Apple and especially Alienware have huge mark ups on their machines. I could buy from pretty much anyone besides Alienware to get a better system for the same price. It is often cheaper to self build as well. While it is very hard to match a lower end tier one machine on price, it is easier to...

Yeah, SAaB was pretty good, and had WC written all over it. I have to agree about the cheese though, especially at the very end where they are on the Chig home moon. "Look at this creature... I'm going to suggest -- without any kind of evidence -- that this creature is the last of his kind...
