I could never stand Starlancer for more than ten minutes. I don't even know how the game plays because for some obscure reason some idiot decided to translate the german version with a rally annoying american accent. Maybe i should get the english version and hope it's not done with a german accent
, at some point in the past i really wanted to play that game but got alienated far too soon by these voices.
If I remember all the nationalities were represented by some horrific accent impressions (us Brits included if my memory serves me my old chap, tally ho!). But I'd still highly recommend the game, you'd only be robbing yourself of a game I've happily replayed at least ten times.
You know...I think I have Starlancer still in the box in my collection some where. I bought it thinking to multiplay it with my brother but we never got around to it. I may have to go looking for that once the dust settles between MWLL, FSO, Tribes 2, etc. 
I can only really repeat myself again and Leeko, next time you browse this thread you should also make it a priority.
