This is absolutely incredible to see how far this game has come from its humble beginnings to the titan it is now. This just goes to show the heart and passion that you dont even see in AAA developers most of the time and im proud to see this game looking at its best right now and who knows Volition may have wanted it to look like this all those years ago
@Elurin Жыл бұрын
Not so humble beginnings! Freespace 2 was the Best space fighter game in its day! It was my Favourite game when it first came out.
@captainandros Жыл бұрын
@@Elurin I may not agree with Watchmojo on most things they do in videos but at least they gave the #1 Space Combat flight Sim to Freespace 2. Guess they can be right once in a while lol. Now that Volition is gone I wonder what could be next for this IP

This was AMAZING! I remember I was about 9 years old when I watched my dad playing this and Freespace 1 and Wing Commander back in the day on his pc. Ended up playing it myself and it was the best games I played. He passed away in 2014 and I would have loved to shown him this video. Im happy to finally know that theres a mod to play this game now. Love the graphics now. This is giving me Battle of Endor vibes.

I love freespace and wing commander. I hope some day they will be new game like that. Because all of last titles are more about exploration, building and mining. But not about fighting as a spacefighter pilot in huge battles in history driven world .

Wau wau wau. Last time I played was around 2020. Looks like I will need to fire it again. Those new textures looks great. Still my favourite space combat game. I still remmember when I was reading about some new FS 1 game in one PC Games magazine. And later there was review for FS2. Oh man the memories with this game are never forgotten.

For those still looking, you buy the base game off of GOG, then download and install the Knossos launcher. From there, you can find all the visual mods and campaigns in click-and-play format. I’d start with jaded’s mod packs for fs2 and FSPort. Chronologically the campaigns go FSPort, Silent threat reborn, fs2

I have not played this for several years. Trying to reinstall it now. Can anyone help me figure it out? Point me in the right direction to reinstall everything. Thanks for the notes. I figured it out. it seems to only work in 1920x1080 resolution. I was thinking it would work in 4k. it turns in a small part of the screen at that resolution. Struggling to play it on my new pc. This is my favorite game of all time so decided to play it again. this kronos interface is confusing compared to the old one.
