Why did you let the wing commander universe die? What was once a wonderful place of imagination and epic space battles is now dead and wilted. Now I see games like Freespace and the up coming microsoft's alliance ready to fill the void that you have left. Games that were inventive like privateer are no more. I will miss the times spent in the wing commander universe. But, I guess all good things must come to an end. The francise has not release a game for over 3 years. There was an attempt to end the life of prophecy by releasing secret opts. Now, after years of being on life support, Wing commander is best to left to rest in peace. Rumors of a privateer 3 have died with any hopes of reviving the much popular universe. Here is hopes that you will prove me wrong, but I will not be holding my breath.
Open letter to Origin
- Thread starter nova21
- Start date
Bad news for you, Origin probably won't read this.
Anyhow, Wing Commander isn't dead. The games, although the most important part of the universe aren't the only ones. There are almost half a dozed WC novels and the WC movie. And Privateer Online should be anounced this year.

It's Aligence IIRC. And FS sucks. Big ships and nice colors, nothing that made the WC series so good.

And what do you call SO? Not only it was a new game, it was released for free.

WTF? End the life of Prophecy?

Um, where the hell have you been? Origin canceled P3 in 1998. And since there was a lot of other WC merchendise, the universe doesen't need any reviving.
God, people don't get a new game for 2 years and they start biching that WC is desd.

Ahhhh!!!
Warcraft is dead... There hasn't been a Warcraft game for... For a long time!
Ahhhhhh!!!!!
Hang on... They're making Warcraft III. And because they waited those three years or so, it's gonna be far better than anything Blizzard has released so far...
I hope you get my drift, Nova21. At any rate, you should keep in mind that Origin does not bother to come here and read these posts (I don't blame them
). This is, in spite of everything, a WC fan site. Which, btw, is also a good reason not to bitch about WC here
. If you think WC is dead, that's your problem. But keep in mind that everybody who's here are here because they disagree with you
.
Incidentally, I still don't understand people who register at this Chat Zone only to announce that WC is dead.
A note to everybody else: Just control yourselves. No matter what you might think, I will not tolerate any insults aimed at this poor, misguided soul

Yeah, I know. I think this is the third person to do this in the last 2 weeks.

Why would anyone insult him/her?

Good thing we are only doing friendly insults, it would not make me happy if I logged on to unwind only to read nasty argumnets.
