Well, I just checked it out. Why's he so upset? The site hasn't even been active in some 2 years.

Re: Feb. 6th News Update - Ryloth, New Vehicles

It's not just Bandu, the entire team became very frustrated with being compared to Galactic Conquest constantly just because they were a Star Wars mod and we are a Star Wars mod, and the constant comparing reached epic levels when some ex-GC devs joined our team.  At one point, GC/Galactic Conquest was in our profanity filter because we couldn't take the comparisons anymore.  First Strike is not Galactic Conquest 2 in any way, shape, or form.  Please don't ask for something just because 'it was in GC, why isn't it in FS?'.  GC was a fun mod during it's time, but here at FS we have different ambitions and goals for our gameplay, our accuracy to the Star Wars universe, as well as stuff and things in general.

...and that's that.

Re: Feb. 6th News Update - Ryloth, New Vehicles

Because people always compare FS to GC.

FS is actually GC2 tongue

Just kidding, don't quote me!

When hte mod first began people came onto these forums and constantly went back to GC like, 'will FS have x because GC had x'

It got on their nerves, especially Bandu's or at least he is the only one that's still around who gets annoyed by it.

So there you have it smile

Edit: Redmonkey somehow posted it up before me xD but you get the picture.

ROFL lol

Back when I first learned about FS in January '06, I had originally mistaken FS to be an updated version of GC for BF2 and was even under the impression it was being developed by the same dev team. Well, let me just tell you I was promptly "corrected". I still have the scars to prove it. tongue
