[Hosting Request] Stellar Assault FSO
Goober said to post this here:

Stellar Assault is a Total Conversion that has been in the works for 8 months now. You may or may not remember the thread I opened a year back...
http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=62362.0

But we are ready now for hosting, we've come a long way, and we would highly appreciate if you took the time to consider this application.

In general, our design goals are 3 fold:
1. Modernize the old Sega Classic "Stellar Assault", a game from 1995.

2. Define a new style of gameplay that is seldom seen in space combat shooters; focusing on simple controls that are easy to learn, but making the combat difficult to master.

3. Create a rich original universe, based loosely on what material was available from the original games.

These are recent renders featuring about 40% of the craft currently ingame, all modeled and textured by me.

The team includes:
Myself - Project Lead, Modeling, Storyboarding, Character Design
Andrew of Doom - Lead Mission Designer, Tables, Storyboards
Thaeris - Concept Art, Storyboarding, some Modeling
Spoon - Mission Designer, Character Development
and
Backslash - HUD & UI Expert, SCP Liaison

We also have two dedicated testers,
Hades and a fellow outside of HLP
Battuta has also recently assisted in testing

Host us, for there will be eternal shame upon you should you not.

Re: [Hosting Request] Stellar Assault FSO
Basically my contention is if Syrk got hosted (no offense Syrk) this should be.

 
Re: [Hosting Request] Stellar Assault FSO
Host this.  Their No Quarter video looks great, and no offense to Spoon, but their dogfighting looks more fun than his due to the ridiculously fast speeds and of course, the Roboteching secondaries.  It probably lacks WoD's character though.

17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

It's not a contest man, Spoon's on SAFSO as well.

Re: [Hosting Request] Stellar Assault FSO
Exactly, he was on our team even before he released WoD. And we recruited him exactly for his awesome mission design skills.

Re: [Hosting Request] Stellar Assault FSO
Having played them both I'd say they're different but comparably fun. Both stylized in their own ways.

 
Re: [Hosting Request] Stellar Assault FSO
Oh.  Thumbs up to Spoon and the SAFSO team then.

EDIT: GB, I know it isn't a contest.  I just didn't want to say something bad about WoD (the combat there not looking as fun as SAFSO) and not try and compliment it to counterbalance that.

Don't mind me, I'm just overly defensive.
