I really hated the new forums for a long time, but a combination of getting used to it, and some of the problems i had with it being patched out, and i actually like it now.

Scott Manley did a video on it. Hopefully should bring in some more publicity.

It looked pretty shaky for awhile there but glad its been boosted up.  Will probably be funded in about 3 hours.

Oh god, infinity has a kickstarter?  I watched the trailer and maybe it's my lack of faith speaking but aside from the neat environments I saw nothing special.

More or less, Infinity has the best looking planet/planetscapes in the business.  However, they are rapidly being caught up on, and they should have kickstarted a long... LOOONG time ago.  Like, preferably before Star Citizen happened, which beat them to the punch.

That said, Battlescape isn't quite the original Infinity: Quest for Earth that was pitched years ago.  They are more or less doing a smaller game (arena shooter thing)  because the big game is kinda insane and they need to polish the engine anyway and hopefully finally actually get paid to work on their thing so they can work on it more.

If you haven't seen them, watch the gameplay overview vids they put up on youtube, they're quite good demos as well as explanations.

What punch?  Star Citizen doesn't exist.

For not existing, they certainly got plenty of crowdfunded cash and lots of people with sunk costs into a 'next gen space game'.

Whether it exists or not, that's millions of dollars that people won't be throwing at someone else.
