Freespace Story

I thought it might be fun to discuss where we think the fs3 story was heading and why.

[Duelron1001]

ah what timeing, just as the FSNA mod team has a debate about the resons behined the stories for FS. Most of the debate is about the Shivans are their resons for interacting with the GTVA in the way that they have. Right now we are bringing ideas togeather to from another story, while I doute that anyone could do what we are intending I am still not going to tell you anything :P

[ShadowWolf_IH]

ummmmm....check Origins.....i know you have access....lol

[Duelron1001]

oooo ok :D

[ShadowWolf_IH]

lol, it's a pretty long read though. but it's where i think the story was heading.

[Duelron1001]

it didn't let me in, have you set it up so only a set group of members can enter? as I guess I am not one of those, but I have admin rights shouldn't I be able to get into anywhere?

[ShadowWolf_IH]

try now, you may have to log out and log back in.

[Duelron1001]

hehe I was looking at the users in the Origin group just as you added me.

[ShadowWolf_IH]

i can't figure out why you couldn't get in, being an admin you should have had access. anyway.....like i said...the mission doc is long, but the cutscenes and cb's are scripted and in there...although i need to do some more work on the cb's. and all 106 missions are in there, there is only 1 cb missing, but the technical info that is important to the campaign is included right before the part where it is needed anyway. have fun...and by the way...if you want to comment on the missions or anything, just put them in the apropriate place and post it back to me.

[Duelron1001]

3.2 only gets up to 102! but you guys have being busy.... gee I thought that we had done alot by having 2 completly diffrent stories (well 2 story out lines, still working out the scripting side of them, and other 2 in the workings). No matter I can't wait for you guys to finsh it; now back to reading. If you want I could P.M you them

[ShadowWolf_IH]

right, only 102...but there is a 4 mission loop in there as well, bringing it up to 106. or you could just send it to me by commenting on the sheet itself and then sending it up as an attachment in there. we'll work it out. be ready for a mind screw.....lol

and boy did this thread get derailed...lol....

ok my vision for the fs story involves Bosch, Shivans, the NTF, some Pirates, obviously the GTVA, the Acients, the current government on Sol (the node has been reopened) and a fifth race, i consider the Ancients to be the fourth race of Freespace. anyway...it includes why the Shivans attacked, the fate of Bosch, the fate of the GTVA, the fate of mankind, how the Shivans found us, how the war between the Shivans and the Ancients turned out, and where we came from. Does that help?

[Duelron1001]

so you have given me the Origins story and thus i feel that i should share the same gester with you. Whatch you PMs, but note that anything I send you sould not be released, same goes for me for Origins.

[ShadowWolf_IH]

of course.

Well, I believe a Freespace sequel would attempt explain the following things:

1. What exactly Admiral Aken Bosch accomplished by communicating with the Shivans
2. The origins of the Shivans
3. Why the Shivans are so intent on destroying
4. A greater meaning of life in the universe

Needless to say such a sequel would probably be very exciting to play for Freespacers should it ever be created. I would imagine it ending with some kind of ultimate sacrifice. I believe that by the campaign ending on such a climax like this would only raise more questions then answers (as FS2 did.)

Those are my thoughts on what I would think a FS3 would encompass. My thoughts on what exactly would happen as far as story in a FS3 is a completely different matter :).

[Axem]

I would feel that FS3 would really focus on Earth and/or the Sol System. It got sealed off in FS1 and they mentioned how they now have technology to go back home in FS2.

Bosch would probably come back and continue his attempt to save mankind. They said the Shivans were part of a bigger problem, maybe Bosch tries to save them from this "bigger problem." Although I'm not sure how the Vasudans would take that, the guy led a largely Anti-Vasudan uprising, so they might not follow willingly.

All mindless speculation mind you.

[FusionStorm]

My story would tell how the Shivans first talked to Bosch in the Hades rebellion and told him where the Knossos was and told him how to build the ETAK device to talk back and forth with him, And the would use him to activate the Knossos. I would explain how the Shivans are way smarter than we could have imagined. And what the Luci was really for, why the Sathanas destroyed the Star of capella. And why they did not attack earlier. Very evil storyline, I have. :biggrin1: But, in my head it is.

[Gloriano]

there would be atleast another great war but who would enemy maybe shivans or something else and there would be sol gate opening

but I really would want that community would make FS3 because we have some really good Story writers
