Star Citizen

Anyone looking into this?

Of course, it's going to be the the game Roberts imagined Freelancer would be before cutting of funds/time.

As for the ships not being as agile, that has a lot to do with the realism part. If you manoeuvred as sharply as in Freelancer, you'd pass out immediately or you'd just die in case of LFs...

I think it's strange how people buy into an already unrealistic setting (sci-fi space combat totally unachievable with today's technology) and then defend the internal logics of said fantasy as if it was truth.

If a ship is fast or slow has nothing to do with realism, it has to do with design choices.* Also I am the type that prefer a game that is fun to play, rather than a game so rich in details that my character can go to the john when I do, and from what I've seen so far there's a heavy emphasis on the latter. I hope I'll be proven wrong though.

* Do note I am not proposing Freelancers style, and yes the Freelancer engine's physics are all over the place with spinning Valors etc. etc.
