Overall I'm mighty impressed with the polish and quality for a free game with the graphics, voice acting, sound and overall feel of the game, some professional studios should take hints from the developers of Diaspora. It is very unforgiving, although the game is short, several of the missions took me a few tries to finish because if you don't keep on your toes you can get demolished pretty easy by accidentally flying into friendly fire, letting a Raider get too close or just blowing yourself up with your own missiles. Story is good, as I said, it occurs at the time of the initial Cylon attack and it kept me interested. The standard controls suck, I haven't tried tweaking them yet though. Menu system is a bit cumbersome and overall the UI is a bit clunky. Soundtrack is awesome, they really captured the feel of Galactica. Graphics look good, not mind blowing, but it looks good enough and is immersive. Tutorial is long and complicated given you won't use most of it in the actual campaign (which may change if they ever get around to releasing more episodes). Far too short (apparently they are planning episodic releases, though given how long this has been in the works I don't know how that will work out).
You get to pilot the MkVII Viper in a story that parallels the modern Galactica series at the time of the Cylons returning.
#FREESPACE 2 GRAPHICS MOD MOD#
This frakking shocked and horrified me because it's an awesome game which is FREE to download and play, it's a standalone mod in the Freespace Source Code Project, so you don't need to own Freespace 2 to play it.
I did a search on "diaspora" and didn't see anything.
