| Post subject: | Supremacy Test Game |
I went and loaded up the test game. WOW. It is old BOTF 1 only 3000% better! IT plays rather like botf of old..HOWEVER.. there is so much more to do. Now not all ships have pictures... but you still know what they are. I fumbled starting my game as I was not thinking that it would be like old both... I should have asked first! lol You build your items you need for your planet + you can build ships along side!!! From my first play.. 101 turns... You really have to watch your planets closely. with the growth speed it is excellent... I am going to play again here shortly... Just wanted to give a heads up to everyone to go and try this game! more to come... [ EDIT] Here is a screen shot of my movements and making contact and setting up a trade with the Klingons.. this is set at a long Zoom out.. you can still see and move your ships this way. It is limited as it is a test run. BUT You do get a feel for the game.. and talking with Mstrobel there is more to be added in... The ships move fast.. and if you try, the scouts here do cloak... kinda cool... Oh if you want to upgrade your systems you only have to use the "F11" key. So you all try it.. I know I am having fun!

No need to be so harsh on him, Mattress, he's a first time offender. Personally, I don't really care if people swear from time to time, as long as their posts aren't excessively vulgar or in poor taste. |

mburrell1979: yes, 3D tactical combat will be the last feature implemented. The reason for this is that it is a huge undertaking, and as I am the only developer on the project right now. I would like to get the rest of the game (mostly) finished before I turn my focus to the combat engine, which will undoubtedly take a while to finish. |

Ok, just wanted to know. It looks great! The only other issue i have encountered is that some systems only have a max pop of 5, which isnt even enough to produce food. especially if there is no chance for wind turbines or charge collectors to power replicators or the like. |

i mean the pace of the game way i had no problems with the speed. but the pace was to slow for my style of gameplay i get the feeling i have to push the turn button 20 times for something happens. Not really my style construction of simple ships already takes ages. may be more realistic but i prefer faster. Maybe you give out 2 versions one normal one fast gameplay version And in the release will it be able to change the color so that some minors can be changed to majors and i love minors makes it more realistic ive the al had there small empires and own colors expect the non spacefaring minors ofcourse. Not like in original where few had ships and you could easy conquer them rather than trying the diplomatic route. And what are you planning to do with the diplomatic screen. It would be cool if your able to transfer planets and systems and bases as a peace resolution. Negotion about claims on systems Like both empires contest for 2 systems and they come to an agrement with both getting 1 of the 2 systems Dont know if this is to complex but this kind of diplomatic means you can win territory without fighting. Or have systems switching sides over and over. |

Gameplay speed hasn't even begun to be tested and refined yet. I'm sure one of the reasons that it seems to drag is that there are a lot of features missing from the game (like diplomacy), which would normally add a lot more depth to the passing turns. As you've noticed, the diplomacy system hasn't been implemented yet, but it's one of the next things I'm working on. |

That's one of the things i'm looking forward to most about Supremacy. The new interface with the floating heads is a great addition already. |

| Post subject: | Re: Supremency Test Game |
Probably not any major updates for a while. I've just recently resumed working on the game after about a 3-month sabbattical. I put regular interim releases up on the forums for anyone who wants to test them, so just check the topic header of the Supremacy Pre-Release Download thread to see the last time an update was posted. |

I can understand DuBois about the micromanagement |

| Post subject: | Re: Supremency Test Game |
DuBois, I don't know if you noticed but Mike released an update to Supremacy only 7 days ago. Again, Keep checking the very first post of that thread, because that's where the latest Supremacy download links go. ...Actually, i'll post a news item so more people notice about it. We hardly ever post news items and this is as good a reason as any to post one. |

| Post subject: | Re: Supremency Test Game |
I don't see much point in posting news items about minor releases... the only thing I added to the latest version was animated stars, after all. |

^^ mstrobel will hunt you down anyway MoE when he wants a news item posted up on the site and you won't follow the order.. |

| Post subject: | Re: Supremency Test Game |
Actually, the main reason why I posted the news item was due to one of the comments posted on my last news item, which stated that we hardly ever post news items - which is true. There have been months and even years between some of the news items. We really need to use it more often. Besides, an update is an update. It doesn't matter if it's small or big. It's still something to talk about. We wouldn't be here if we didn't care about the project, so lets make sure people know about our triumphs. |

The graphics are good and the music adds a lot. I hope that in the opening menu you can later add in some of the monolog as was herd in original BOTF. It breaks up the quite and adds a lot. My personal favorite is that recorded by Ms. Robin Ty. http://www.botf2.com/Shared%20Documents ... 44987A3%7d |
