That game needs to be stripped naked for a controller. Horrible horrible starbase tycoon game. That there is so much focus on starbases in the screenshots has me writing this off at the announcement.

Eh, looks like just another facelift installment to me.

Ha!

God bless you and yours. ...and may they not be as ugly as you are. :p

They were all good, but the eye-straining blue Halcyon on red walls just holds a special place in my heart.

Plus all those wasted man-hours just playing the Standoff episodes as they came out. ;)

I'm glad an anonymous commenter could show me how the Saga team is evil and after me lucky charms.

Somehow I think we can figure it out.

Ba-dum psh!

It's not. LOAF got side-tracked by a signature.

Considering greebles, like windows, are used primarily for scale I see no problem with them.

Patience. Proofing and editing an almost 400 page manuscript takes a long time when you have many other obligations that come before it.

I believe the liquid suspension he's talking about would work to put pressure on the body and push the blood back up. It wouldn't negate G-force but it might allow the pilot to take a couple more Gs before blacking out. Even so, liquid anything is very heavy. It would royally mess up the...

I wouldn't know about imminent, but I do know what LOAF is talking about. It's supposed to be headed up by the guy that was with Warhammer Online and helped with the archive project. Paul Barnett was it?

There are a few good reasons to use a sphere, but confining concepts to a primitive shape will become prohibitive to practical design. Consider taking a basic, boxy space computer and trying to rearrange it so it fits in a sphere, versus building a hollow sphere around it, versus just wrapping...

Oh man I can't wait. Look at that ambient lighting!

I think a lot of people prefer the WC1/2 style over WC3/4. It's not exactly something we're going to burn you as a witch for. As for the style of the ships, I think it's less about making things look realistic (really, the Longbow? the only bomber that looks like a giant freaking torpedo?)...

I would hate to think 'science' has locked us out of fantastical advancements already. Thankfully we're still very ignorant and inexperienced, leaving the possibility of there someday being giant space carriers armed with flak lasers and jumping though swirling blue clouds.

I don't see the point, from the creative angle. The original teams for all those games have moved on. And then moved on two more times. So you have a scenario where either you bring in a new team and tell them they need to neuter their creativity to adhere to the last thread the franchise...

Wing Commander wasn't just a cinematic experience. Not by a long shot. It was a trendsetter for the "must upgrade" multimedia video game. You wanted VGA. You wanted a Sound Blaster. You wanted a solid joystick. This is standard fare today, where any game you buy from one of the big...
