[quote who="Frogboy" reply="8" id="3603239"] We expect to begin sending invitations out next week but it'll probably take awhile to go through them all since we're manually going through each one. [/quote] Everyone! This is the week! :D

[quote who="IBNobody" reply="27" id="3603095"] I'm going to catch flack for this... But this is what I thought of when I saw the alien. [/quote] Haha, that's hilarious!
[quote who="Hunam_" reply="15" id="3603026"] ^ Exactly what I said earlier. It's just a 2D concept art. 3D model of a planet will look better as in MUCH less cartoony, more life-like/real. Trust me, I'm a 3D modeler. [/quote] Haha, okay then! You've abated my concerns. I'll have to wait for more art to be released t see what you mean though. :D I'm a voice actor, so not exactly fluent with 3D modeling.
[quote who="Hunam_" reply="12" id="3603002"] ^ But the aliens don't look "realistic" either. I think the cartoony art style of the alien and planets match nicely. Do you think this matches the alien image better? [/quote] No, I dont expect HYPER-realism. I just think the planets in this post are a bit too cartoonish. I'd rather see a planet-like object and have loading screens than have these clumps of clay and seamless tra
[quote who="Hunam_" reply="10" id="3602968"] @billia the planet's pic is just a concept art pic. As it's mentioned in the post - all is 3D. I'm sure the disconnect you're talking about isn't actually there. [/quote] I dunno. This line seemed pretty straight forward about it: "When you explore the galaxy, the planets won’t look like realistic planets."
Great work Star Control team! Loving the progress reports! There's only one issue I see here. I like the art. I like it a lot. That new alien is a masterpiece all on it's own. Then you add the environment it's swimming(?) in and it just elevates the composition to an entirely new level of awesome. But then I see those planets and I get so sad. :( One of my favorite activities in Star Control 2 was going to the planet, and just admiring how pretty and random
Is there a definitive date on when the invites will start to be sent? Just wanna know when to check my inboxs for a hopeful surprise. :D
My favorite moment has to be when my best friend showed me the game for the first time. He came over and helped me install the Ur-Quan Masters and subtly guided me through some of the tougher puzzles. He got me hooked. I got really involved in the fledgling community at the time and even got to work with the creators of Ur-Quan Masters: Project 6014 as a voice actor. I don't think one video game has left quite as profound an impact on me as Star Control II. It'll forever be one of my
[quote who="CivHunter" reply="5" id="3601024"] Quoting , quoting post Invites have not been sent out yet for everyone who has filled it out and haven't heard anything yet. I know the wait can be agonizing. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] So this seems to imply that "some" inv
