Looking good so far. Those screenies really makes me think we should finally improve jump-in and jump-out animations.

I've always thought they were too small

While I have to admit that the game looks good, the Gameplay in the Demo was just insanely hard to wrap my brain around. Is the actual game any easier to play?

Y'know, I wonder how an Freespace Mod for Nexus would look...

The Enemies reminded me of Space Orcs. Orks. Yeah...

Yeah, the Gorgs?

The game's plot is painfully cliche:

Enigmatic "Friendly" AI
Ancient Evil
Young female love interest who is either an alien or "alienated"
Earth in danger of being invaded/invaded/saved

Long cutscenes dealing with story elements no one really cares about, etc. Painful voice acting... (Just about *all* of them are as bad as Cordoba in FS2: "EPSILON PEGASI!!!!1111")

There are a few clever bits here and there, but overall mediocre.

Beautiful graphics though...

Post by: Jetmech Jr. on May 10, 2005, 04:32:48 am: I see...

I'm still failing to understand how to get my ships to do anything other than drift around and die in the demo. They could have done much to make it simpler to understand. "Realism" only goes so far...

Post by: Todo on May 21, 2005, 11:03:41 pm: Looks awesome! I might try that.

It's very unfortunate that the game itself is quite buggy even after the update. I mean I can't finish the main campaign's last mission because when the second wave of the enemy ships have jumped through the wormhole the game crashes. It's extremely annoying.

Too bad screenshots and videos are out of dated badly. Hopefully we get them updated in few days.
