Epsilon 5 Report post Posted June 9, 2003 Suprisingly good. And I like that for once, the sky isn't all clouds, or no clouds (or stars, for the matter) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supreme Cmdr Report post Posted June 9, 2003 The stars are based on real world positions btw i.e. the constellations are all accurate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You guys are just kicking some but on this game!! The terrain looks fabulous. The new Hud is freaking great. The models, lighting.. we are talking sweeet!!. I am seriously wondering how any of upcomming reviewers are going to be able to fault the Graphics this time around. when you consider the Scale of rendering entire planets all to scale within an entire Galaxy. sheesh. Again That/Those new Hud/s are very impressive. Hey, is there perchance still some time to toss in some deer and rabits. Looking at those terrain picks made me want to do some Buck hunting. Heck realy that looks like the only mising feature from this game. some Big Game Hunting heh. Roll on up onto some foreign planet and whip out a nice 6 point Space Yak for trade to the Gamulans In all seriousness, you guys are just doing a damn fine job. There can be no doubt that this game is going to be the Difinative Space Sim of all time. heh, if you change the subject, you automatically created a new topic. So, I've deleted yours and just posted your message in here for you. List of animals/insects etc in the game 5 animals 4 birds 6 fish 2 insects 2 reptiles oh, and its not a space sim anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kodiak Report post Posted June 11, 2003 Are there any plans for any sort of atmospheric glow for the planets? I mean, everything looks so much better (textures, colors, poly count.. etc.), but the planets still seems really plain from space, especially close up. Also, we arn't going to see the Earth pop up in different parts of the solar system are we? I find that a bit odd. Also I'm new, and I love this game... really looking forward to an updated version Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supreme Cmdr Report post Posted June 12, 2003 Animals, birds etc are just there for populating the terrain and making it more alive. However, the aggressive animals (e.g. the bear, snake etc) will attack (just like regular NPCs) if you are too close etc and you will take injury. Yes, you can kill them since they are just regular 3D models like any other in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
