at last people being honest. 
Everyone that i meet while playing FS2 online all say they have finished FS2 on Insane and since FS2 has a more advanced AI then FS, i think they are lying.
I have trouble passing the mission where you need to inspect the cargo containers where you get the Shields, Sensors and Weapons.

i remember back in the 'ol SSC days, 7 of us tried to do a run-through on the shivan gauntlet - on insane.
the only thing i can remember, is half of my team laughing over the intercom as i'm about 80 klicks out, hunting down that one, last dragon! it was worth it in the end, though. I believe we made it through

Going up against a wing of Dragons on Insane is suicide.
I can't beat the second mission of FS1 on Insane, and I can only get up to Love The Treason on FS2.

Re: Freespace 1 & 2 Difficulties
Sigh...here we go again, always complaining...

your own damn fault for choosing a difficulty level you're not ready to handle. Have you noticed that ais litterally fly in straight lines on easy? so what do you think they do on insane? I'll give you a hint: they move. [V] invented the INSANE difficulty level for a reason, its for experienced players who want a challenge, if you dont want a challenge, dont play it on insane.

All they care about is the points.
most players are also good enough to handle it and it is more fun for them because there is actually a challenge, *GASP*.

Personally, i think whoever says that they have finished the entire FreeSpace 2 Campaign on INSANE difficulty is a downright liar.
done it, after playing through the whole thing on lower difficulties several times, still took a while.

If you knew ANYTHING about FS2 you would know that ALL beams IGNORE shields.

Also, the fighters are 100% more manuverable and have faster recharge rates for shields, weapons AND Afterburner, if not unlimited.
Once again, YOU chose the difficulty, if you can't handle playing a game with a challenge, dont play on insane. Why do you think they call it insane?

if you cant blow up anything short of a rock, you might want to consider a easier game, i recomend solitair; but in that game everything is somewhat dependent on odds, so you'd probably just end up complaining about how that is so unfair too that not all hands are winnable. Go back to the ****-hole you crawled out of newbie.

Ease up, Lieutenant! The AI already grilled him (j/king). 
The line between "real, hardcore challenge" and "impossible" varies from person to person.

Had I known how quickly and easily promotions come in FS2 online, I wouldn't have picked this name
