Space rangers 3

It's the truth. I would rate this game, even the reboot version as probably somewhere around 5/10, avg, not too bad, fairly good and entertaining. But there is no other game that I have found so indelibly replayable as this one.

Even amongst my favorites such as Oblivion, Fallout, X-com, Command and Conquer, Age of Empires, no matter how much I like these games, none of them have ever so called me back to play again like this game has. It's like it doesn't matter how many times I fail or go through it, building my ship up, taking out enemies, and doing various missions, pushing at all costs to remove the Dominators, from a system or sector, it's like no matter how much I do it, the game never gets too old. Most games get to a point, except maybe for Age of Empires, where it just doesn't interest me to do the game again. However, I have felt the call of this game more than 4 times in the last several years that I've owned it.

There's just something about the simplistic playing style, the way it's all put together that simply calls out to me every so often, like craving a session of a classic board game with your family or friends. Most of those board games collect dust and would never be rated with a 10, but some reason, somehow, the game becomes a mainstay because it is so indelible, like this game. This game is an excellent purchase if only because of it's lasting appeal. And especially today, at it's current price which I'm sure is $5 and under by now with the Reboot version and a copy of SP1 thrown in, it's one of the best deals one can ever get like Monopoly, Risk, Stratego, and even Axis and Allies. All indelible unforgettable games, none of which may make any top-ten lists, but cannot be forgotten, and are easily classics.

Personally, I would buy a Space Rangers 3 not because I expect it to be the best game in the world like a bunch of these guys are saying, but because I'd expect it to be as indelible as Space Rangers 2 has become. It's truly a rare find to find a game that is so repayable, so simplistically yet intricately enjoyable as Space Rangers 2 is.

Dear 1C Company,
Space Rangers 2 is a very, very epic game and I can't believe that there isn't planned a following game.
What is the reason? Low sales?
My idea: You should expand to the new platforms Android and iOS. The round system of Space Rangers makes it very compatible for mobile games. So...
why not?
If you fear that it would not be sold you can maybe make a Kickstarter Project

But please, please don't give this up.
I hope that you will publish Space Rangers 3 soon
and I would buy it (on Android) and show it all
my Friends.

For those of you reading this forum, read some of the other posts to realize that currently Space Rangers HD is in production and it will have new content as well as a graphical upgrade. If it does well in sales, then Space Rangers 3 will be considered as a viable option. So spread the word! SR HD comes out 1st quarter 2013. Look for it on Steam.

A kickstarter project is a great idea. Personally I'd rather see a Space Rangers 3 project for PC. Other platforms being secondary.

as i_am_memory said
it maybe true that orginal space rangers dose not working on sp2hd, but take note that space ranger HD is working by people who created space ranger revolution unofficial patch, and i think they know what they are doing.
one of them said if space ranger meet the minimal sales goal of 1c, they probably can create the sp3 (or whatever its name will be).

i know some of them (not that much) their most important characteristic is that they hear other peoples opinion, so i guess they won't screw up atleast i hope

kickstart has a lot of advantages (if they raise enough to bypass a publisher) but 1c might own the copyright on space ranger series.

I'm about to purchase Space Rangers HD on Steam, and I hope that my purchase goes that much further to make Space Rangers 3 possible. I really enjoy the balanced living world you've created, and with little more than a few minor tweaks and a modern update I think Space Rangers 3 could gain alot of traction (just look at X-Com, turn based strategy is having a revival in the US at least, I know it never died in Europe and Russia).

In any case, thanks for your hard work and your magnificent creation!
