Evochron On Steam = Ton Load Of New Players

Post by Knoxx »

Tacking on my hello as I'm apart of those that never heard of this game and just found it because of Steam. I LOVE this sort of game, recently been playing a bunch of X3 and used to play Freespace. Now I hear this has multiplayer... sold. Already got another friend of mine to buy it and we're planning on playing together.

Unfortunately, all I have is a Cyborg Fly5. =\\ ;)

Throwing my greeting out to you fellow space sim junkies from a Steam pilgrim. I've been playing them since Wing Commander/Tie Fighter, so I've been around the block. Funny... every once in a while I'd do a search for a good space sim, and somehow, I always missed this one - but no more.

I look forward to flying with all of you. Thank you for the welcoming community and the readily available help (see: hint book). Looks like it's gonna be a good time. :)

Good to see another veteran of wing commander and tie fighter, those were my introduction to space combat games that are instant classics. Hope to see you in multiplayer Bishop!:)

Welcome to the game and community Bishop. You will not regret buying the game at all, it's by many people considered to be one of the best ones made. But we're looking forward to reading your own experiences.
Have fun! :)

Hello Everyone.

I am shocked that I didn't know about these games until they hit Steam. That first dive into the soupy atmosphere of an unknown world fairly brought a tear to the eye of this old Elite junky.

What a brilliant achievement by Mr. Vice!
