Default Progress report on SE5

I wonder where SE5 is up to currently - if anyone is able to just give us a quick update on what stage SE5 is at that would be good - dont need to much detail just a generalisation on the progress made so far - ie have beta testing begun are we at early design or later design stage etc.

I've heard some rumors through the grapevine that the engine is done, and the UI and other grapics are well on their way.

Just rumors though..

Most people who don't post here post in the news group.

I don't post to it, I cannot, as it won't let me because my email allegedly bounced once. I checked my filter and Yahoo Groups is not blocked so I have no clue as to why I cannot post. I gave up on it, but it is where Aaron Hall has been reportedly posting. Good luck on finding out whats going on. His Last update here was about a month ago and was very very informative.

Hi All,

The game is coming along well. We're just slogging through the UI at this point. The basic engine is running but it still needs a lot of enhancements. Its starting to look pretty good! I hope to post some new pictures on the SE5 web page in the coming months.

Aaron

You aren't going to get any sort of a response to a request like this for a game that isn't even in beta yet. And even then everyone involved signs NDA's, so you won't be hearing anything.

If you want you can check out the SE4 Yahoo group. There has been a lot of discussion there in the Last couple months. Most of it is questions and ideas from people like us not involved in the design, but Malfador did make some Posts and gave some hints about some things we might see in the game.

This morning that link isn't working. Yahoo must be having a problem with their server. But try it later today.
