Trailer looks cool to me. Very good production values. Create ** own ship is cool feature too uisng parts from lots of pieces etc. Think i may get this and thought some here might like to know about this hidden gem of a game. Could be good. Of course im gona try the 400 meg demo first like but i think i will enjoy it.
 
Demo was bug ridden to bits, generic space shooter in my opinion, maybe I'm just bored of them?
 
Trailer made it look cool tho very nice cutscenes like homeworld black and white style which i like. The action i saw wasnt much but looked good. I hope its not always 3rd person view tho as fs2 was first person and would be good if this was 1st person as well. Saw a screeny of big ships with ion weapons like in fs2 which was nice.

There is a new demo out compared to the very first demo which probably fixed the bugs. Well i presume the demo is new on gamershell as the description reads in the 2nd paragraph.

The new demo features several missions from the game's campaign, and will challenge the dogfighting skills of the most talented space-fighter pilots. Players can also check out the game's customization options by jumping into the hanger and changing out various ship parts including hulls, energy weapons, rockets shields and much more.

Btw what bugs are you refering to just so i know what the bugs are before i think abotu downloading the demo. Cheers. Also what makes it a generic space shooter in your opinion?
 
It was the new demo that I downloaded, it seemed to spend forever going through loading screens, it crashed serveral times and the worst bug was that it was taking mouse input from my rudder pedals from the outset and this was causing the pointer to stay pretty much locked into the top left corner of the screen which forced me to unplug them. Utterly unimpressed.
