Badly optimised for modern machines
Great game from my childhood. Somehow I remembered about it in 2025 and decided to play again, but I simply can't! It keeps crashing every time I try opening the in-game shop or missions list. This has never been an issue in 2000's, but it is now. None of the proposed solutions worked :(

Broken game!
I wanted to like this game, but it's just too broken. Firstly, the in-game music is too loud, but you can't lower it because the music volume doesn't lower it. It instead lowers your MIC VOLUME! The only way to deal with the music is to either edit the music track and lower it that way or delete it entirely. Secondly, the HUD is horrid. It moves as you move so it's hard to see at a glance what your ammo and shields are without having to stop moving for a second. Finally, the missions are a problem. Some of the missions are scams where no matter what you do, you either fail them or they never complete! Go fishing with a guy looking for a whale? Nothing happens. Chase a scientist? He vanishes and nothing happens. Fight all the cops in town for 30k? The cops are endless. And there are a few missions that straight up won't launch, no matter how many times you press enter! And you can get softlocked if all you have are scam or busted missions. The graphics are fine and decent looking and the music is okay when it's not destroying your eardrums. The controls are fine, and they can be rebound if needed. The game CAN be played in windowed mode, but it's stuck in the top left hard corner of the screen. I reccomend avoiding this game until it's fixed, no matter the price!

Only has 2 axis input despite being 6DOF
I was only interested in playing with a joystick, but the game only has support for yaw, pitch, and throttle on a single joystick. Not even roll. This means that you will have to use the keyboard for roll, strafe, altitude, and throttle, since no one's actually going to use that on the joystick. This is pretty poor considering it's 2 years after Freespace 2, which at minimum has the 4 primary axis and multi-controller support. A lot of the other complaints on here seem incorrect, the menu navigation is done with mouse or arrow keys, and there is an options menu to rebind things.

Game is fine
But I just did not understand how to play it. I can fly around the city, destroy cars, fight with the police and that is all. So...may be later

won't hold your interest...
it's good for about half an hour/45 minutes or so. my experience was "hey, how cool is this..360 degrees of freedom of movement". and then ended up being "soooo.....is this all there is to this game?" it just did not hold my interest and so i can't give it too high of a rating, i love full freedom in games but there HAS to be some type of an actual GAME in the actual game.
