Crimson 0 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Wow, now this is a sweet RPG. Its like Morrowind, but instead of being on land, your flying in space. Now, I had my doubts. (Not much of a Sci-Fi freak.) Then I went over to a buddies house and watched him play. About 30 minutes later I went out and bought it, and all I can say is, wow.

Specter 0 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 It is a totally awesome game Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Havok 30 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Wow that looks pretty kool ! It reminds me of a game that was supposed to come out, and the name has totally slipped my mind , a while ago. The only difference in the game I am thinking about was that it was on modern day Earth and you would've been able to work for the cops or against them and stuff. Grrrr what was it called ( keep wanting to say Rolling Thunder ) . I have it in an old PCGamer mag from 2yrs ago but it was cancelled due to the company being bought out or something . --> Havok wanders off to the storage room to dig that mag out 'cause the title is really bothering him <-- Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cobblers 12 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 I have played this game to death now!! It was that good that it stopped me playing GR or RS for about two months flat. The only problem I had with the game was that it didn't last long enough for me. But if anyone wants a recommendation, then I'd tell you to buy it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
firefly2442 0 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Privateer? Oh yeah, I think I remember that. Was it in PC Gamer or Computer Games Magazine? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rocky 1,224 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 (edited) I tried the demo, found some bugs, found that lots of other people found the same bugs (no sound at certain scenes), so I gave it a miss - although it did look fun. Has it been patched yet? Edit> I see a patch but looks like it does not address the sound issue Edited July 30, 2003 by Rocky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XavierOnasis 0 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Privateer? Unless they're making a sequel, you're talking about a 8-9 year old game. Actually, I hope they do. It was cool. The original Privateer is from the same company that put out the Wing Commander games. Drawing a blank on the company, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Suicide Commando 0 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Yeah, it was the sequal to Privateer, as the second took place in a non-Wing Commander universe. I was sooo looking forward to Privateer 3 too, I just adore the Wing Commander games. Was my first love before I stumbled into RSE's world. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
warhawk 0 Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 There is nothing better, aside from sniping with a Hectate II mind you, than setting down in the cockpit of Titan armed with Nomad Energy weapons and distroying everyone that opposes you!
