RE: On the galactic fence
<r>I share your enthusiasm for seamless planetary transitions, it certainly makes it feel like the universe is more complete. However, if I'm honest with myself I have to say that it usually isn't that relevant to actual gameplay. I played Evochron Mercenary a lot, which has beautifully seamless ...

RE: On the galactic fence
<t>This is all great to hear. Thank you all for the input. I am still taking a leap of faith for this because in the case of, say, the planetary add-on not having seamless transitions between orbit to atmospheric flight (ala Frontier), it could destroy even the slightest enthusiasm for picking this ...

On the galactic fence
<t>Considering picking this up. I have waited for almost 30 years for someone to create a proper followup to Elite Frontier. There are many flight sims I love, but I've measured them all against EF. I realize one of my favorite features, planetary landing, isn't implemented at launch, and if it ...

RE: Looking for an early, realtime 3D space-shooter
Fantastic. I am 99% certain that the game I was looking for was Starglider 2. Seeing the title screen immediately slapped my memory to life, and then the HUD with it's pseudo-holographic display sealed the deal. Thank you all so much for your answers and help.

RE: Looking for an early, realtime 3D space-shooter
<r>Ach, this is great. I was a little dismayed I didn't get replies right away. I blame my impatience. You've given me a couple leads though! Hardwar was definitely not it. My family didn't get a PC until 94, and the game I'm thinking of I saw at least 3-5 years before this, when I was in my tweens ...

Looking for an early, realtime 3D space-shooter
<r>Hello, I'm new. I was hoping there were some other old-schoolers here that could help me identify a game from ~25 years ago. The description is at the bottom, but first: It is not the following:Terminal VelocityFury3HellbenderElite 1 or 2Wingcommander (any)BattlezoneArcticfoxStellar 7 (any)Nova ...
