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.

..Hi all,

have you ever tried Space Rangers 2?

Amongst other genres it should definitely stay in the space sim category too....I'm playing it right now and it's quite incredible.

Space sim, RTS, FPS, Text-based adventure, RPG....name one category and you'll discover that this game have it!

Load of humor too.

Bye!

Welcome to SSC niphredil.

I have this game on the link list and played the demo and had the first reactions as Pinback where I died, and died, and died 🙂 Maybe i'll download the demo again and give it another chance at some point.

Currently there is no plans to release a Space Rangers 3 that I could find anywhere.

Hi,

It seems that the developer team has been disbanded....but I'm not sure.

The game it's quite challenging, but the merchant way is possible with some patience...

Bye!

Reboot was supposed to be an expansion of Space Rangers 2. Personally it's a shame on some of these games out there never getting the promotion they need to be successful. Maybe in a few years SSC can be a voice for the indie space gaming developer.

well,

the only help I can give you is to take a 2 way approach: fight the dominators on the RTS part of the game to make money and, meanwhile, trade a lot...once you have the money you can get a decent ship and enough firepower to survive 🙂

I bought a boxed version of Reboot (just a dvd actually 😀 ), for five euros, in a burgain bin. 😀

When in a battle, use "pause" a lot. (Play it as a TBS game). Buy a gun with a long range, and a lot of missiles. And fight while keeping your distance.

No. I think that they are the same team that made "King's Bounty".

Well, I's like to play SR2: Reboot, but there is one thing that bothers me: I don't know if Reboot has the dreadful Starforce copy protection or something other (you know Starforce, the little thing Lucifer sent to Earth to punish gamers 👿 ). So, the question is: does SR2 Reboot (retail, disk, not from Impulse) have Starforce? ❓
