Hell yeah I'll be camping outside the game shop

Absolutely!

The demo is keeping me busy at the moment but it's still a bloody long time until April 11th.

FL is really cool as it stands but if DA were to release a patch or expansion to add/correct some of the things people have been griping about, that would be better still. Just as long as it doesn't take them another four years ...

I am in the gang... :7)

I preordered the game after playing the demo. Therefore, that means I liked it.

I'll probably get blacklisted and/or get this thread locked for saying this but I am still a little disappointed that 1st person isn't fully supported, and the demo at least had some odd voice cut-offs while trying to talk to people in bars etc.

The voice acting was a little goofy too, "so, you're new here"....."uhhhhhh huhhhhhh" but hey it's just a game not real life.

The space combat, ambience, and performance on my system was quite nice (even though my video card is well over 2 months old so it's not anywhere near new).

Game on........

Bargib comments here: You need to do a lot worse to get this thread locked I find some conversations a tad goofy too, so I've been using my <ESC> key a lot on those to speed it up... To speed the game a bit further up, select "Skip Transistions". Though you still have to press <ESC> for those rumours/info/missions... But hey - that button isn't to hard to hit

I just placed my pre-order. I'm partially addicted to the demo.

Yes, I'll buy it, although mainly for the RPG elements--the last true SF RPG I played was "Captive" on my Amiga 500...

Yes, I am very impressed with the game.. except for Trent's "uh..yeah"

Post Tue Feb 25, 2003 8:56 am

Even though I got the full warez version I'm gonna buy the game for sure.

Looking forward to multiplaying

after my first disappointment vansish, now I have a nice game for death match with abit flying skill, and a great living and breathing universe in eve

BUY BUY BUY give it to me :-)

and I mean both of them :-D

still I think the game could have been alot better, for the stuff that is in the game (and no I do not speak of any secrets, I speak of the plain funktions the game offers you direkt) 4 years is just to much dev time, heck even blizzard works faster

Well I downloaded the Demo... played it... hated it... uninstalled it....

Microsoft.... WHAT WHERE YOU THINKING.... If I could swear in public forums without being censored I would!!!!
The graphics are obliterated by Earth & Beyond. You physically can run around the space
This is an insult to the Space Combat Genre....

I was sceptical of the "Mouse only" setup but was willing to wait and see for myself... Suffice to say people I was not impressed at what seems to be a joke (god I hope this demo was a joke). Because I'm not laughing...

I for one will not be buying this game, and I wonder if anyone else feels like they've been kicked in the guts after being avid fans of the original Starlancer and waiting so patiently for years...

A Joke Microsoft.... a bloody joke!
