what a classic story, what happened to all the games that were like this. you know just a thought so few were produced to have a good story line. question why isnt the video game industry geared more to that idea?
Can this run on Windows XP? I have a Pentium III processor with 512 Megabytes of RAM. It runs Tachyon the Fringe perfectly (with the help of an old but still working graphics card).
I don't care what they say this is one of the best space games, if not games in general ever made. It was GTA in space for fuck's sake! And the distances between planets were gineormeous, you really felt like you were in space.
@alendostan No but you can customize them with weapons, because most ships have weapon slots. You're a space bandit; you find cargo ships, fight em, steal the cargo, go back to base, sell it, buy bigass guns, be a motherfucker, it's all good!
@Vroktar2009 WTF this isnt fraking eve lolololol for all we know everywhere in this system is 0.0 cause if some one wants to they could kill you well aslong as the police arent around :D
I have only briefly played this game... alright I accidently slammed it in a drawer. Have you any idea where I could get this game? All I remember (those many years ago) was basically autopiloting my way around, and even then I couldn't get any where. I was young, now I'm wise. I'd like to play if I ever got the chance. So, do you know where I might purchase it? And how much would it cost, or at least a guesstimate.
Great game indeed. I still have my copy after all these years but I could never get around to finishing it.

@celticbattleaxe Your rig should be able to handle it, as long as you have a decent video card. Enjoy!

@Provakator Thanks!! I think it should - it's an ATI Radeon Rage (came out in 2000).

Seeing this really takes me back; it is kind of depressing that in the nearly 10 years since this came out there hasn't been a good space-sim.

Best space simulation ever made. Too bad you can fly just so small ships...

Small? The Heavy Corvette is the size of the USS Defiant!
BlasterMaster555 3 years ago
I meant in comparison to other ones in the game, not physically. I'd love to commandeer a destroyer some times ;)

Thanks for uploading this! What a great game this STILL IS. Good story and the best space combat physics model ever used.

Thanks! Yeah I'm annoyed with space games where ships have to keep their engines on to move, as if they're pushing against an ether.

I bought a copy on Amazon for next to nothing last week. I haven't gotten it working yet, but I'm still tinkering with it.

@GoonSquadCommand I totally agree with you, I wish they would make a third one... imagine how it would look with modern graphics...
