Another good space game.

Rebel Galaxy is a solid space game recently released on the market. Being limited to only 2 planes seems weird at first but you can get used to it. The voice acting is great but the voices seem to have been recorded without using top of the line microphones so if you have music off you will hear constant static whenever someone talks. Additionally to that some songs also have some weird crackling as if they were played on a gramophone. The other big problem is the controls. The game is HEAVILY consolized. Manual turret control is... bad. Very bad. And on top of that the turrets tend to snap to target and that can get annoying when there is a load of strike craft zipping around and your aiming reticle jumping left and right making it impossible to target anything specific. Same thing applies to mining. Your mining laser simply jumps between asteroids while you are trying to get a bead on that one roid with minable resources in the area.

Better than Freelancer!!

Didn't expect to love this game the way I do. It's so much fun! It's soooooo Freelancer style it's funny. However the plot is pretty damn cool, ships are awesome, controls are simple yet very cool, easy game to learn to play, music is GREAT!! Very Firefly soundtrack. Graphics are perfect for the style game this is. Weapons are awesome! I honestly can't complain about it at all. .....now, I might take a lot of crap for saying this....but I'm gonna say it. Are you ready? I like Rebel Galaxy much more than Freelancer. Yeah I said it lol. You see, I didn't like Freelancer much so I didn't expect to like this game so much. I love all of Roberts games but Freelancer was my least favorite because of the controls. Somehow because of the fighting style I actually love this games controls. Mouse and keyboard for me. I'm thinking about trying out with a gamepad but I just love the easy controls with the mouse and keyboard. Guys, for the price I highly suggest you trying this. This is the first space game to be released since Starlancer(which was a long time ago) that I have truly loved. Can't wait to play it more tomorrow. Here are some vids for those who haven't heard of this:

Unterhaltsam

Rebel Galaxy gehört sicher zu den unterhaltsameren Vertretern der Gattung, krankt aber im wesentlichen an der sehr dünnen Story und an der geringen spielerischen Abwechslung. Jede der generischen Missionen ist letztlich gleich. Man fliegt zum vermerkten Wegpunkt und zerstört alles, was im Radar rot aufleuchtet. Gelegentlich darf man noch per Traktorstrahl ein Objekt aufsammeln oder einem anderen Schiff Geleitschutz geben. Dennoch macht Rebel Galaxy Spass. Die in nur einer horizontalen Ebene arrangierten Kämpfe erinnern sehr an Schlachten auf offener See. Die richtige Positionierung des eigenen Schiffes kann entscheidend sein und man kann durch geschicktes Manövrieren durchaus auch deutlich größere "Pötte" in die Knie zwingen. Es gibt zahlreiche Schiffe, die man steuern kann. Sie unterscheiden sich allerdings spielerisch nur wenig. Je größer die Schiffe werden, desto weniger beweglich werden sie. Allerdings steigt dann auch die Zahl der verfügbaren Geschütze. Am Ende steuern man eine träge Festung mit vernichtender Feuerkraft, der kaum ein Gegner etwas entgegensetzen kann. Dementsprechend fällt der Spassfaktor dann aber auch rapide ab. Wenn die uninspirierte (und kurze) Story durch ist, und man das stärkste Schiff mit voller Ausrüstung sein eigen nennt, kann man zwar theoretisch weiter spielen, aber es fehlt dazu schlicht der Grund. Fazit: Kurzweiliger Spass mit originellem Soundtrack. Es fehlt jedoch an Spieltiefe und Langzeitmotivation. Trotzdem kann ich den Titel empfehlen.

One of the best space sims out there!

I was intrigued by this game when I saw it, and the description. Having a good few hours of play under my belt, I can honestly say that this is the best amount of space sim fun I've had since Starfleet Command and Freelancer. That being said, this game also successfully combines those two games, and the kind of combat style, even if it's less tactical than Starfleet Command. The galaxy/universe is highly immersive, the contacts you talk to are well animated and the voice acting is great. So far there is nothing that pulls you out of the immersion, the missions are varied, upgrades are great, and you can randomly stumble upon some great stuff. For instance, I found a cargo container containing a very good laser turret that, if bought, would set you back 39,000 credits! That thing has made my combat a lot easier since! Stuff like that keeps the game exciting. People have likened the combat somewhat to the naval combat in the Assassin's Creed games, and I agree. It's refreshing to have to deal with broadside shots more, rather than just do the old dogfight. Being a Starfleet Command veteran, X-axis only movements don't bother me all too much. The only time that really gets annoying is when you want to mine asteroids and have to spend some time maneuvering your ship into a proper position, or when firing on an enemy becomes difficult because of it, or the angle. Additional camera controls/zoom options, or even presets for various distances would be great, especially during long warp flight sequences. Those are minor issues though, and if more games had so little to comment about in terms of 'would-be-nice' improvements, that would be awesome. In short: If you like space sims, if you enjoyed the X series, Freelancer, Darkstar One, Starfleet Command and other semi-tactical spacer-trader-combat sims (you don't get an in-cockpit view here though), you will definitely, without a doubt, enjoy this game! To me it's one of the best games I purchased in recent years.

Rebel Galaxy - A Small Meteoric Diamond

Possibly my favorite (sorta) 1st person space combat games. Especially for larger than fighter action. Flavored with Firefly. So engaging you do not even notice the tricky ship physics secret for a very long time - possibly years.
