If this works as well as it says, it sounds fantastic.

Be a pilot and dogfight in space, or land in the hanger and shoot your way on foot to disable ships from inside? Look forward to trying this out!

At 0:34 in the video, I am sure he says that humanity was divided into 2 FRACTIONS instead of factions.

Doesn't show a lot of the control system and they way those men move around really makes my chuckle.

It looks ok and I will try it when it is released however I won't get my hopes up about it being amazing!

Thought this was a bit meh. Then they hopped onto the ships and flew outside I was like "wwwwwwwaaaaahhh?!" :eek:

The reinforcements at the end were sweet too

Definately gonna give this a go!

Curunen · 30 May 2008 at 21:31

That looks really cool!
I'll be giving this a go for sure.

i remember playing the beta of this a while ago, was great then but was so many bugs it got annoying. Is it still buggy?

JIM_BOB7813 · 30 May 2008 at 21:47

Played this a while ago and it wasn't much fun. Vehicles in HL2 just don't seem to work and the lag is unbearable.
The weapons were quite cool, a gun which sprays fuel then you light it and a remote control sentry gun IIRC.

Makhaira · 30 May 2008 at 21:52

Concept seems great, but like Jim Bob said, I've yet to find a vehicle in HL2 that I actually enjoyed controlling...

Neolink · 31 May 2008 at 02:10

Will be trying this when 3.0 comes out, I quite like the concept and I've had a freelancer craving all month, Maybe this will help

Megahurtz400 · 31 May 2008 at 02:12

Is this online?

Schnippzle · 31 May 2008 at 07:50

Looks quite cool

Skeeter · 31 May 2008 at 09:53

Played this a while back, earlier version or beta or something, its very meh.

Sniper123 · 31 May 2008 at 18:38

Looks good.Will give it a try when its out!

MoNkEyMiKeY · 1 Jun 2008 at 00:39

Do the soldiers in the video have broken backs or something?! Is it really hard to model up right humans?!

iamdjdz · 11 Feb 2009 at 16:59

*BUMP*

Did anyone download this when it was released on steam the other day? I'm currently downloading it now and will see how it plays. Best of all it's free.

FrenchTart · 11 Feb 2009 at 17:06

I'll have to give it a try. If the lag is the only problem, I'll save it for LAN parties

iamdjdz · 11 Feb 2009 at 18:09

Well first load with steam gives a blue screen before the menu - hopefully another try will be ok, or else it'll be a redownload

psychas · 11 Feb 2009 at 18:13

can u enter the atmosphere of the planets ? is it mmo rts ?

Hectic Glenn · 11 Feb 2009 at 18:15

ES is a good mod, it's now supported by SteamWorks meaning you can download the mod directly through Steam. It automatically updates too, which is useful because there have been major lag issues since the first SW's version was released last week. This has been patched since and should improve the gameplay.

Other good mods include: Insurgency, Dystopia & Synergy if you're looking for some free extras from Steam.

Cheers for the heads up, i liked the look of the concept but the word at the time this thread was made was that it was near unplayable. Sounds like many issues have been fixed so i'm gonna give it a whirl.
