Tachyon: The Fringe

The game literally WILL NOT RUN on Windows 10. Why TF are you even selling it, Steam?

insane игра детства из журнала с трансформерами

Лучший космосим от лица кабины. Самый душевный, проработанный, завораживающий. Познакомился с ним ещё в детстве через бонусный диск к журналу Трансформеров из киоска Росспечати с локализацией 1С-Snowball (На то время не менее разъёбной)

I played SO much of this game as a teenager, crazy good campaign and phenomenal multiplayer. If anyone out there remembers the 2000-2002 era of Tachyon clans I was in Phoenician Republic and later New Dawn. I still remember clans like Iconian Knights. Multiplayer is dead now obviously but imo Tachyon is still worth playing even now, the graphics hold up alright and the mechanics are still excellent., especially the "slide" function".

This game is and forever will be an absolute nostalgia bomb from my childhood and i recommend anybody curious on a good, old school, basic space shooter with the protagonist voiced by BRUCE CAMPBELL! to try this out, prob wait for it to go on sale tho

I tried to get this game to run properly but nothing helped, maybe its good but I never knew. Keep in mind this wont run on Windows 10/11 and apparently some tinkering is supposed to make it work in my case I did get it to "run" but I couldnt see crap because the resolution is too low and cant be maximized either. I am a Delta Force Veteran and enjoyed those games (classics) so yeah I wanted to enjoy this too

I first played this game more than 20 years ago, and recently picked it back up when I found it on Steam. It is very enjoyable, has a great underlying story line, and was ahead of its time when released. Even with today's new terrain models and graphics, it still works. Add the nGlide wrapper, and you can play this on your Windows 11 computer. The single player is fun to work through. It is not exceptionally challenging, but it is fun. The BASE WARS and ARENA are where this game excels in the entertainment category. Get a few friends involved and you will lose yourselves for hours!

Bruce Campbell in space! Easier than the star wars space sims! Good plot!

I first played this game when it came out, and I enjoyed it this time around every bit as much as the first time. As far as the plot is concerned, this game has two very interesting possible stories to follow - each with their own unique take on a well crafted universe of lore and fun characters. If you've ever seen a Bruce Campbell movie, you'll love this game by default as he voices the main character. The game mechanics and controls are truly ahead of their time. I have yet to play another title that has the same level of scientific realism integrated into their space flight gameplay. Do yourself a favor and play this if you want a fun, space flight combat experience - especially if realistic physics are a draw for you.

Played this game again, the other day. A recommendation is to use the fixed nGlide driver for an even better experience from here (https://www.zeus-software.com/downloads/nglide/compatibility). In any case, the game plays incredibly smoothly on modern-day hardware, and aside from "sounds in space", it's just such an enjoyable single-player experience hearing Bruce Campbell's constant banter, along with the smoothness of keyboard and mouse controls. Ultimately, one of those works that IMO still holds up because the moment to moment gameplay is just that enjoyable. I honestly wish this game got a remaster just to get a fresh graphical coat of paint, and wonder why this style of game fell off. I have very, very little bad to say about this game beyond "I wish the Galspan route went on longer. I finished it in a day." =P
