Been a while since I visited here, but what a great post to read on my first day back! At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I just have to say that I wish more publishers and developers are like you guys.

Thanks Lionheart and Blair! My recent Beta testing for a space RTS that doesn't have 3D movement left some really bad tastes in my mouth @Blair: your comments here I think deserves to be stickied somewhere. Availability of advance tactical control such as moving ships in 3D, and the presence of limited customization of ships are points that I am sure any fan would want to know, and an
beta... Now when will that be I already check SDC for updates twice a day... Don't make me have to hit the refresh button on SDC every 5 min
speaking of ship control, can you guys remind me if SoSE will allow movement in 3D (like in HW)? I don't remember reading it on the old forum. thanks
Good to hear that you guys are going to go at it again schem and TFL Blair: I am not worried about the 10 min wait. I was just wondering if there is going to be some technology that can speed up the travel. I ask this purely for strategic reasons, since if such tech exist, teching to it may be vital if the map is HUGE (ie many galaxies)
This is great info indeed. I just hope that the game will make liberal use of these massive galaxies. However, if it does take 10 min to travel between systems, what is in between? I recall old posts about not making the game boring to the players, so there must be a mechanism to make those 10min fun or go by faster right? Personally I don't care about the wait. Heck I'd love it if the game is REALLY to scale <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Tongue.gif" border=0
problem is that we cannot pre-order right now
Frogboy please do tell Like whats the first thing you thought when starting up the game and so on Yes please do TELL. Don't keep us fans waiting! (I have been lurking on the old SoSE forum for a loooong time now and I need more info <img src="
I am so happy that SD and Ironclad are getting together for this game! *tears of joy flows down my face*
