Eighteen years have passed since FreeSpace 2 and the destruction of Capella, and the shattered colonies of man are finally ready to re-open the jump node to Earth. As the Alliance teeters on the verge of total social collapse, the Security Council deploys the elite 14th Battlegroup to re-establish contact with Earth, and young pilot Samuel Bei finds himself once more under his estranged father's command. Age of Aquarius describes the journey of the 14th Battlegroup as its mission to the Blue Planet goes shockingly wrong. War in Heaven takes place eighteen months after the events of Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius and details the final stages of the civil war between Sol and the rest of her colonies: a war without good or evil, only shades of gray. Built at the cutting edge of the FreeSpace Open engine, Blue Planet is a fan-made conclusion to the FreeSpace saga, a story of sacrifice, triumph, and destiny, and one of the most beloved FreeSpace mods of all time.

Description

18 months after the 14th Battle Group's disastrous expedition to Sol, the civil war between Federation and Alliance enters its apocalyptic final phase.

I gotta admit, as much as I loved Age of Aquarius and the amount of tense action both it and this mod deliver, I liked the former more. Not just because of the voice acting, it's more the fixiation on two or three main characters, all of them speaking in Microsoft text-reader about moral issues of killing and socialising with each other while there's a war going on. It felt a little out of place to have a dialogue tree in a space combat simulator. I was also a little disappointed not to play as Samuel, just after starting to really relate to the Character I get a new one I didn' like a lot at first. People don't really want to hear a rookie whining about war they CAN relate with game, they want the grizzled veteran they WANT to relate with. Other than that, the professional execution of this mod is just amazing again, the hard work you put into is definitely worthy of at least a special spot in Valhalla/Heaven/Nirvana/Afterlife of your choice. I am still playing it right now, but I cannot possibly wait for the ending any longer, so I hope that Part two is done anytime in the next few years.
