It's a one time buy.

[Jopax]

I've been rolling around in my Cruiser, players are crappy when they leave or don't want to surrender but i've had a couple of very fun matches, mainly going for a big rolling fleet type of thing that pummels things with various ballistic stuff while soaking up damage with meatshields and shieldshields

[inEQUALITY]

This game sounds awesome, I'm signing up for this. Assuming my crappy little rig can run this thing.

Anyone setting up something for us Bay12ers to get together and play on this?

EDIT Damn my need for a better processor. No play for me it would seem.

[Nilocy]

Are the games hosted P2P or is there a main server every game runs on?

If its the later than, man lotsa lag to be had. But I'm assuming its the former as when I tried hosting a 5v5 it lagged quite badly, so much so it became unplayable.

Also, rather annoyed free accounts cant swap up skills. But I guess there has to be some form of limitation.

[Ahra]

Corvette ftw srsly first game and i solo kill 2 ships?

[Tres_Huevos]

I'm assuming the games are hosted on some central server. Every game I've tried has lagged too terribly to even fly my ship, including a practice "match" that only had me in it.
Looks quite interesting, but it's unplayable for me.

The only game I've had with bad lag was a 6v6; the rest have been reasonably smooth sailing with the occasional hiccup.

Same, This might be a over-zealous netcode since my gf stated rubberbanding on her shitty mmos while i was playing.


Anyway, fun game needs a few more audio cues and a slight speed up because one 3vs3(soon turned into 2vs3) took around 100minutes and that's just too much.

Speed could be nice in the game since all attacks are effectively "skillshots". You can lock a target, and your turrets will automatically lead it, but the shots still have to travel and can miss if the target changes course enough. Though since weapons have arcs, rapid maneuvering will mess with your accuracy as well.

Now you've perked my interest.

I've been waiting for a DotA-esque that doesn't intentionally try to be an awkward Warcraft 3 mod.

Kudos to the devs for being innovative in a stagnant genre.

Bloodline Champions has had the all skillshots thing (well, plus standard point and click AoE, but all of that has a delay) well before this game came along. Reasonably innovative, focuses completely on fighting.
BLC is more of a coffee break game tho.

Hrmf. The site refuses to let me register or download.

BLC was better than your average DotA-esque, and I particularly liked its direct control scheme compared to its contemporaries. However, it still suffered from the devs feeling compelled to emulate Warcraft 3 in order to appeal to their target audience.

The whole reason why I'm interested in Stellar Impact's development is because the devs don't appear to be haunted by the legacy of WC3. Gameplay aside completely, it's shocking as hell to see a MOBA even attempt to not replicate WC3's setting, graphics, UI or fonts! Even if Stellar Impact turns out to be a flop, I'm hoping that it can gain enough buzz to show future developers within the genre that it's okay to not be WC3.

I need more friends so my Dreadnought skills can come into action on this game. No use if erryones running in first and dying without me supporting them.

[forsaken1111]

friend me or whatever, I've been trying this out though a lot of the people playing are somewhat retarded so I want to play with some good intelligent people. (that's you guys fyi)

Should be the same name ingame

[Jopax]

[forsaken1111]
