Some of you might totally get what I'm suggesting from the get go. If not let me explain. Simply put this game was amazing. If was a 'space sim' dogfighting joysticker made my Volition and published by Interplay. The three games were Descent: Freespace, Descent Freespace: Silent Threat (expansion) and Freespace 2. They all had excellend sound, voice acting, and a killer story that took very traditional Sci-Fi elements but made them feel snappy all over with creative mission design and realistic political writing.
While Playing with Uzi's mod I couldn't help but feel that the beam weapons felt like the beam weapons from these games. And that's when it hit me. The last Freespace game totally ended on a cliff hanger with the Shivans detonating a star for some unexplained reason. The Shivans themselves were a fascinating threat in that there were a species that had been space faring for so long that their genetic eveolution had addapted to it almost exclusively.
Could it be possible to make a mod that might address some of these mysteries? Maybe recapture some of the truly creepy missions? Would we want to see a Freespace 3, but at a Sins mod? What do you guys think?
