Re: How'd you find out about First Strike?

I'm another one who was a big GC fan and heard about this from the GC/Shattered Faith folks.  I'm glad I kept checking.  I liked what I saw.  Spacecraft and vehicles were a big sell for me.   And I loved the fact that there'd be no artillery spamming. and Jihading big_smile


Oh, Canadiens, here's some more replies from a similar thread I started a while back:

Take note too of what caught peoples eye, or made them say, "I just HAVE to get this!"  And make sure it's part of the media blitz. smile

Re: How'd you find out about First Strike?

I googled for Star Wars mods and games. We were trying to find an up to date Star Wars game or mod that featured ship combat. I'm part of a clan that has been playing XvT and XWA for a LONG time. The absence of any decent space sim in recent years has been affecting the online player base so when we found this we got all excited. It rocks! I bought BF2142 just for this game.

Anybody else out there lament the lack of Star Wars space sims in the XvT, XWA etc style? Apparantly no space combat sims have been created because there is no market for them.

I found 2005 a newspost at Battlefield-news.de (a german BF site) and have been waiting for it since then wink

I long for a Falcon 4.0 AF-style X-Wing simulator. Would be so awesome.
