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!

There is some sort of reboot according to this site.was this not available on the download only sites http://www.excalibur-publishing.co.uk/space.htm

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.

Any tips on playing the game niphredil,I spend a lot time dyingin that game

[niphredil]

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.I

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?
