Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
Despite some strangeness/inaccuracies in the article, it's still publicity.  |

Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
I don't like the mouse pointer. It's huge!

Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
Metroid? Hmm, they reminded me more of the Imsaeis and Eoladi in MOO3...
Hey, there are two empires with the empire type "Continuum"... isn't THAT weird?

Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
I agree about the mouse pointer, way too huge.
I also don't really like the system view. I'm not sure if it's just because it's so 'sideways', though. I suppose it can be rotated, moved, and zoomed as you wish? So much more orderly when it's top-down. And those flags are too big.
Not sure how I feel about publicity for the game. I've never actually experienced any game series becoming better when they got popular. More like the other way around.

Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
SEIV has proven to be an order of magnitude or two greater in popularity than SEIII was... It went from shareware to having an actual publisher. Would you say SEIV is worse than SEIII?

Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
My concern is the floating/ghost status reports on each ship in combat...get a bunch of ships on the screen, its going to be cluttered with ships, and status reports...

Re: Article about SEV on Gamespot!
Don't count too heavily on the projected release date, no one really knows at this stage what the release date actually will be. It may be sooner, it may be later, but it wouldn't do to get people's hopes up just to have them end up disappointed.
