Distant Worlds - [Space RTS 4x]
« on: January 24, 2010, 07:50:44 pm »

Anyone saw this yet?
Made by Code Force, published by Matrix Games..

[Weird?] Video, description got some links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGG9AVI2mSI

I don't know if it has been released yet, I got too excited so I will just post here to see what you guys got to say.
Will search their forums or something.

EDIT-- Well it wasn't released yet, and this is a nice thread, people asking the dev's some interesting stuff:
http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2347203&mpage=1&key=

Also modified the thread name.

EDIT 2 -- This reminds me of Aurora, with "private sectors" and the way planet conquering is dealed with.
And I got the feeling they are simplifying everything a bit too much, maybe..

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

Well... They've only released a couple of videos. So I'm not going to get my hopes up of this actually being released... (I'll rather wait that someone posts in this thread when they release a demo and/or the whole thing ;))

It sounds promising though...

I might try their previous space opera Armada 2526

btw: "Everyone" is playing Aurora anyway so we're kinda busy with an other 4x game... ::)

Seeing as this isn't exactly mega-dead, i'm going to be bringing it back up because it's coming out soon! There's a wargamer article, here's the website for the game.

www.codeforce.co.nz

and, of course, it's been delayed by about a week because of the race portraits, but they say there'll be a firm release date by the end of the week, and that they'll have it out by next week!
