To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hello was wondering if anyone knew out of these 3 video games which would be the best , was looking at evochron mercenary, starlight inception & starpoint gemini 2, only problem with last 2 games are they are still in alpha stage but are 5 dollars cheaper than evochron , any thoughts or insights from any who have played these games would be helpful, thanks in advance.
signed the noob (lol!)
Oh & have been reading about game called x3 ? info states its a strategy game but everything ive read sounds like a sim or rpg? just trying to get most bang for my
buck , would really like space combat sim ,iam running a geforce gtx 760 video card , so long & short
is I want a game worthy of this. Thanks in advance .
Welcome to the forums Shadowma45
Can't say anything about them as I have not played any of them but as you say both Gemini 2 and Starlight are still in Alpha so you can expect bugs while playing the game,
Starlight has more of a linear (Wing Commander) type gameplay, the other two are open worlds or universe space trading games IIRC.
X3 Rebirth should be out on the 15 of November and should give your graphic card a work out.
Thanks ssc Ill be buying starlight when its finished as iam a huge wing cmdr fan, Oh by the way I hear Chris Roberts is comming out w/t another space flt
sim similar to his last wing cmr series , cant wait !, Oh well , thanks for the help & have a good day

With playing the Starpoint Gemini and liking it and liking the dev team I would probably support their second effort because they have taken a lot of the negatives described to them here and fixed them and they have made a huge improvement to the game graphically. And I thought I would mentioned Wing Commander Saga just incase you haven't played it since you mentioned WC, and yes I cannot wait for Star Citizen and Squadron 44, only bad thing is that I have to upgrade my PC because I can't even play with the hanger preview.
Thanks good to know dark one, uhh by the way when you said hanger scene were you refering to the new chris roberts game? if so , what are you running on you computer ? The reason iam asking
I may need to upgrade my pc lol! I definetly want to play that one when it comes out, thanks again
I basically need a DX11 compatible gfx card, mine is only a AMD 4890HD which only supports DX10. But to be safe you should get a mid-range DX11 card one with 1GB+ of memory and 256bit or higher. For system memory I would go for 8GB of memory (more the better 16 would be ideal). After that just a decent processor and system will suffice. I should be able to build me a system for June sometime and should be able to run SC with no issues. I knew I was going to be in trouble when I couldn't play Strike Suit Zero on decent settings (because of the action) so saving up some cash and hope to have a new system soon and this one will go to the kids 🙂
