Icingdeath Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Oh my god. Someone else actually plays this! I had Descent on one of my uber-old Acer computers. God, that game was pure ownage. I really wouldn't call it an era. It was more of a definitive time period during which dinstinctive characteristics were expressed in similar ways.

Mercifull Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Didnt it evolve into Freespace? I could be wrong tho.

Pete_the_Viscous Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Seeing that screenshot brought back memories! Not seen that game for ages. It was good -- I don't think it would work on my computer these days, but there we go. deviantart account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I was right. The team did eventually base Freespace on Descent. aparently the code for Freespace2 was released open source and now there is a huge modding community. :D Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

I tried to play multiplayer for Descent but i suck lol. Course i was facing a bunch of old guys who sit around and play Descent all day but meh... axeraider70.deviantART.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOWSTORM Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Cool! someone else actually played that game! I played it straight from Descent 1 to 3 and the Freespaces (although they really played nothing like Descent ) I even published a few levels for Descent 2 :-) Descent 1 used to run great on the old 386's :-) My brother was unbeatable multiplayer, though. I would just spawn, run around, drop a black shark missile, and get flashed and end up in my own gravity well. You remember the sound that used to come up when the missiles locked on? I hated that sound :wall: The final boss in Descent 3 was pure pwnage, too :mrgreen: When you are learning, you are growing. If you stop learning, you stop growing. If you stop growing, you die.

Adam007 Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I got it as a present ages ago on my old computer, but I remember my computer being too laggy to really handle it. It seemed like it woulda been fun to play though. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
