They are alive, working, and the campaign will be cool.

What more do you want to know  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Seriously tho, you can only give so many updates.  These things REALLY do take time to put together.

That's true.

Though I can't reveal our new work right now, I can say that it's really progressing. The status up to now is something close to:

Storyline: 100% done
Scripts: 90% done
Mods: 60% done
Fiction: 75% done
Cutscenes: 15% done
Missions: 10% done
Voices: 0% done
Briefing Animations: 0% done

We can say that the overall status of the campaign is close to 45-50% done, though we still have a lot of work ahead of us. We plan to finish all the mods in two moths top, for an instance, but the missions will require more time.

You can rest assured, though, that we have a lot of surprises, and some of them will be revealed in the near future.

I´ve read the cutscenes scripts and they´re going to be a blast! Even me, with my crappy 56K will download them.

Try to find some friends with a good connection and a CD burner to download it for you.

Damn, now I know what you've been doing all this time! And Styxx will we see a preview of a cutscene soon? Like Kazan posted the Unholy Alliance fail cutscene. Or are you still working on the first cutscene? Sorry for all the questions but I've been very excited now that you finally updated.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

You'll see some results of the development soon. I can't tell you what it is yet (would ruin the surprise) but I'm sure you'll love it...  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
