I wish this game weren't so disappointing.

freespace 2 when T_T
>>343812764
yeah
>>343812282
>no games where you can fly biomechanical ships
Best Battlestar coming through
I like space ships
I have never tried it, but why exactly is the game so bad? I mean, that ship os gorgeous
Post some comfy interiors.
Covenant ships are so cool.
>>343813891
>3 polygons
I'll take your word for it
>>343813859
That looks like a horse cock
>>343814084
Well that one is supposed to be far off in a skybox, so it's not a very good example.
>>343813859
>but why exactly is the game so bad?
its not, people just have a hard time dealing with the fact eve is a long term investment game, most people want immediate rewards which eve doesn't give, also it doesn't pander to carebears at all
>>343813875
new desktop. thanks
.
Drifter battleships are pretty spooky.
>>343812637
Wasn't

>Had the chance to buy Battlefleet Gothic during the Steam sale
>Was put off by the "Mixed" review rating saying that is has a lot of "performance issues".
>Decide to get Rainbow Six Siege cause I was looking for a multiplayer game and need to fix that itch.
>See this image and reminded at how cool the ships looked in Battlefleet Gothic and how I can be commanding an armada of Battle Barges right about now.
>Starting to feel regrets for not getting it.
>>343814505
all the eve trailers are legit as fuck
>>343814760
just get it the next time it's on sale.
By then there should also be Tau in it.
love this one
More games need motherfucking megastructures, they are just so damn cool and such an integral part of space shit and so many settings leave them out.
>>343814919
>That Eve Citadel trailer
Just goddamn. I only wish other games could pull off something like that but within first person cockpit.
>>343815679
have you seen eve valkyrie yet?
>>343815984
I have. It looked pretty cool but the focus on VR has left me disinterested
Sleek designs always get the best of me
ORKS IS BEST
>>343816160
yeah, its not really my style but for people that want a game like that, its probably the best option
I've always had a soft spot for Armour type, like pic related
pseudo magic design is fucking garbage
>>343815386
learning that HW2 was supposed to have megastructures and then had to drop them due to development issues was the biggest goddamn tragedy ever
>>343816242
You barbarians know nothing of void combat stra(CRASH)
>>343813891
>tfw no good models of covenant ships.
>>343816295
Hopefully you can play it without VR. I don't give a shit about that gimmick.
>>343817642
agreed
http://store.steampowered.com/app/310380/
Play this
Thank later
>>343816717
>>343818321
>Moba
No thanks. Reminds me of that juggernaut game though.
>>343818321
i have this but i never played it
>>343816717
>not the Bestia
>>343812282
what about superior nipponjin design?
>>343818494
>>343818586
It's actually great
Had it on my HD too for the longest time when it was promoted to be "free" if you downloaded the very first build
Now it's a regular F2P game, but it's fantastic after the latest patch.
Intense battles and lots of power struggling, grind has been reduced.
>>343818810
There will never be a proper space trucking game in which you have to go through space highways and jump points and navigate through asteroid clusters and avoid pirates to get to your destination.
>>343819297
honestly though, the day nippon does a game where you can be a bounty hunter and roam the galaxy with the almost cyberpunk look cb has all other shit space games will be blown out of the water.
>>343813563
That's a nice ship, would be a shame if somebody crashed it.
>>343819297
>he never played Freelanceronline with mods
>>343812282
pretty much anything from Escape Velocity
>>343819667
I didn't. I should probably look into it.
>>343819498
One can only wish. I hate how all the current space sims are. X Rebirth has gotten the traveling down decently and the atmosphere down, but the flying is rather shit and on foot movement is weird.
ED has got flying down but the game is empty, there is nothing to do and all major features are Soonâ„¢ plus behind season pass expansion paywalls. SC is still in development and probably won't be out for another few years and No Man's Sky looks to be the same shit as ED content wise. Then there is Dual Universe that just got announced but we know next to nothing about the game other than an alpha in game trailer showing off two planets and a whole lot of shadow pop in.
>>343818321
>Fractured Ass
Yeah nah an update mid May broke my game, devs are doing nothing about it.
I like sins of a solar empire, some of the ships look neat.
>>343821342
I was pretty damn disappointed by HW2 remaster version.
I cant have more ships than i have fleet space, even by capturing enemy ships.
I wonder if a (pseudo) realistic space warfare game could be fun
as in massive engagement distance, focus on target acquisition, momentum management, high lethality per shot, heat management etc
>tfw still no space game with high detail bulky lander ships like in Prometheus that allow you to land anywhere on a planet without loading screen between space and on-planet transition with interesting exploration mechanics
why life..
>>343813891
>>343817424
>>343816163
>>343816562
Should I dump the starship scale charts for Halo?
>tfw no good models of covenant ships.
Look up Adjutant, it's a program to rip models from the halo games, I used it to get a few running in Space Engine.
There's also the models from the sins of the prophets mod which were supposed to go open source with them but last I heard they changed their mind.
>>343815386
I candump the charts for the megastructures too
>>343822740
>shall I post pictures of purple dildos
pls don't, Halo is normie cancer
>>343822740
I wonder what sort of ship giant ships do you prepare
Massive nuclear carrier style ships with extreme population still living in ship-like conditions
Massive ships with large open spaces designed for habitation and potentially recreation
Massive ships that are 99% engines, cargo and and fuel with relatively little crew
or some form of hybrid?
QUICK
What is best warp style?
Homeworld style 'phasing'
Elite dangerous style suddenly appearing out of fucking nowhere jumping?
X style worm holes/hyperlane gates?
>>343818321
I wish more people played it.
>>343812501
>tfw there will never be an Overlord 3
>>343813212
Genesis Rising? Y
>>343823021
>implying
Normies haven't liked Halo since 2007 before CoD got big. The series is actually somewhat niche now. Also, Halo lore of all things certainly isn't, even if the games are.
Anyways, i'm gonnna dump them anyways. I'll start with covenant aircraft, move up through covenant ship sizes, then do UNSC aircraft and move up through their ships, and then do the combined chart of larger ships up through megastructures.
I'll obviously therefore be skipping ground vehicles, weapons, objects, and so on, if you wanna view those yourself, you can find the charts here http://halo.bungie.org/misc/sloftus_scalecomparison/1280h.html, just click the red boxes to zoom in
>>343823169
One of the UNSC ships in that image is a colony ship meant to serve as a residence for a population prior to settling on a newly colonized planet, and one of the covenant ships there is an agricultural support ship meant to grow foodstuff for fleets.
>>343823174
is there a style that dumps a massive wave of relativistic particles infront of the ship when the warp bubble collapses?
because if its possible IRL that's pretty much what would happen
>>343823174
I like Homeworld style mechanically
I like EVE style worm holes and gates because they look cool.

Why is the sound design so perfect?
>>343824289
>>343824421
Hey while we're having a space thread how is that EVE war going against the goonswarm?
>>343812282
TEC a shit
Advent master race
>>343824554
>>343824678
>>343815386
here's some of your megastructures senpai
>>343824782
>>343824889
>>343824319
Because all they focused on was graphics and sound design. No gameplay.
>>343825016
and finished
Again, if you wanna see the charts I didn't post, use http://halo.bungie.org/misc/sloftus_scalecomparison/1280h.html and just click the red boxex

>>343819498
You can give Rebel Galaxy a shot, it's a small spiritual clone of Freelancer with a Firefly/Bebop paint over it. The difference is that you play only as Capital Ships while Freelancer you play only as fighters though both games have mods that lets you play as each other.
Posting my shipfu, the sexiest rustbucket from the game just slightly above the Polaris
>>343824319
The sound design in the game is so good, but the actual gameplay is really lacking.
>>343812282
my GIRLFRIEND!!!!!!! says over and over that she really wishes there was a game similiar to bethesda games etc, but in space or high future setting. I've pondered it and I can think of precisely 0 games like that
Is there anything that would scratch that itch? some technomancer game just came out but it looks shitty and also like it's hard to run
>>343825138
never seen those before, thanks for the share
>>343824319
Is a player controlling that massive ship?
>>343826253
No. It's a static object that shows up in the system and then shoots at things.
>>343826427
Can you ever get a ship of that size?
>>343825138
I always wonder if people who include dyson spheres into their settings know just how large they are
like say, take that one, if we put every single person who ever lived in earth's history on that thing and divided it equally between them they'd all have a front yard the size of Argentina
>>343826624
The biggest ships you can get are about 1/20th the size or so. However they function like slower turning fighters so the only difference between the largest ships that players can fly and the smallest is the size (which affects cargo capacity) and sometimes number of weapons, but even those are just one or two more hardpoints for weapons.
>>343823174
Wormholes/gates are cool as fug, but i also like the idea of FTL drive jumping like in BSG or whatever. There's also instantaneous travel vs. actually travelling through hyperspace/subsapce like in star wars, while instant travel is probably a bit more realistic and practical, traveling through "hyperspace" for hours or even weeks is a pretty cool concept.
I like how Stellaris features multiple FTL methods for different races even if it was annoying as fuck trying to defend systems lategame as a hyperspace method empire against a warpdrive empire.
>>343825302
>2d combat
Otherwise I would buy it in a heartbeat.
>>343827357
actually the long duration warp drives are the most "realistic" ones
>>343827357
>while instant travel is probably a bit more realistic and practical, traveling through "hyperspace" for hours or even weeks is a pretty cool concept
Freespace kind of combines the two. Subspace jumps within the same system are nearly instantaneous, but jumps between systems require traveling through a subspace tunnel for a while.
>>343823021
>CS:GO, Overwatch and CoD are normie cancer.
FTFY
>>343812282
Best ship
>>343827562
It seems like shit at first but the combat might surprise you with how fun it is.
>>343826624
It's planned to be played available
>>343825615
No, there really is nothing like that. Fallout is sci-fi, but it's also post-apocalyptic and has that horrid 1950s retro-future aesthetic. If I had the skills, I'd make a total conversion for it that makes the aesthetic more like Mass Effect and takes place in a non-destroyed sci-fi world.
>>343823921
>CRS-class light cruiser
>smaller than a corvette
>smaller than UNSC frigates
I feel like someone really fucked up the scale for that one.
>>343814919
4u.
Anyone else trying not to feel hopeful about No Man's Sky?
I was weary of it at first, but after reading about it I feel honestly super hopeful considering the devs seem to be really passionate about the game.
>>343832329
>Trying
No need to try, the CEO and everyone else has already removed any and all hope for that game.
>>343822607
Try evochron mercenary...
>>343832521
What did they do?
Why no organic ships like anywhere?
Battefleet will probably avoid tyranids, khaaks were nonplayable in x3, freelancer doesnt let you buy nomad ships... and so on.
>>343835090
Every video they've shown off has been the same recycled garbage of landing on planet >shoot some animals or mine a rock >leave planet. The CEO absolutely refuses to clarify if things like multiplayer are actually in game (we know the only thing you'll see are planets that people named). And major gameplay features such as trading, alien interaction and even extensive space dog fighting have yet to be shown off properly, in fact we only got the first glimpse of the speech system about two months ago, and that's for a game that's been in development for how many years now?
This on top of the fact that so far all the planets they've shown off through screenshots and videos have been too similar to me. Creatures shown off so far have been mostly boring shit we see on a daily basis in real life or are have lost their wow factor (generic dinosaurs). And everyone is parroting the game is "too fucking huge" PR speak. Clearly none of these people have played Elite Nothing to do Dangerous, I know I have.
