I'm sure there are others who would take the exact opposite view, but the more I see, the more impatient I get for the thing that whenever anyone asks when it's going to be ready the stock reply is, "when it's ready." I respect the stock reply, but do ya have ta make it look so darn good when we can't get hold of it yet? Between the VCF and the screenshots I'm gonna go nuts! ZM out... ...of his mind!

Mordax Blyrr Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 Very, VERY nice indeed! Also checked out the new shots and I am sure UC will kick ass even more!! Let those reviewers come again and see if they still have such a lame opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Cmdr Posted April 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 ...and just think. Its all free. For a $19.99 game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobcat Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Just wanted to let you know that it's very much appreciated. I've enjoyed the Battlecruiser games since the beginning and each new incarnation and the subsequent patches has brought the game ever nearer to all I could wish for in a space simulation. No other game gives me so much freedom and really makes me feel responsible for my ship and crew. Looking forward to the new patch and again thanks.

Supreme Cmdr Posted April 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I have uploaded three new shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almostpilot Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Well, the new shots and graphics improvement are incredible !!! Congratulations and thanks for this Kind of game suport. But i┬┤m just so anxious to "test" it by myself. I know that "the patch is ready when it┬┤s ready", but any possible date to release it ? Please.

Grizzle Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 In one of those screens where the troops are blowing up a SAM, you can see one of the marines running *away* from the area. It's the little things that make this game so great. Just where is that marine going? Doesn't really matter, but knowing 'he' decided to run that way and is not following a predefined script/path gets me all giddy. Yup $19.99 is a steal for this game. Think you might release a gold version sometime in the future SC? If not, I may just pick up a second copy as a show of support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takvah Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I stepped away from the game for a bit when the new patch was announced deciding that I would wait for the polish to be applied to the product. I like UC as it is but I really wanted to do missions etc., with the patch's upgrades. I'm a guy that will play through the campaigns ONCE so I might as well do it in style *snickers*. Obviously, seeing these new screens and reading about what is coming with the patch I am totally psyched about retaking my captain's chair and I am really happy that I get to play MOST of the campaign missions in the "enhanced" environments. Couple that with the enhancements to multiplayer that will allow me to spank some of my verbal sparring partners on these forums and I'm elated! *Begins writing his Death List* (Kill Bill reference). Nice work Derek, I can't wait for the patch to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, at least I have the satisfaction of knowing I supported this game by paying more - 19.99 POUNDS. By the way, SC, where do I send the bill for a new carpet? I've ruined mine by drooling so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetaops Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 That's unfortunate, because Interplay is upon bad times, last time I heard. They're facing eviction. Anyway, I'm gonna look at the VCF now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
