Flagship (First person space RTS) Kickstarter trailer - General

[QUOTE=Firefox42;46097441]I meant as in designing your own ships.[/QUOTE] They've said you can upgrade ships and chose things like weapons, engines, shields and other equipment though.

[QUOTE=nightlord;46097901]They've said you can upgrade ships and chose things like weapons, engines, shields and other equipment though.[/QUOTE] Still not designing though. I want a space yamato. [img]http://www.the-blueprints.com/modules/gallery/originals/02756-05475.jpg[/img]

I know the assets aren't finished, but the ship designs imho are butt ugly.

[QUOTE=VikCreamCake;46098872]I know the assets aren't finished, but the ship designs imho are butt ugly.[/QUOTE] They're going to get someone to redo them properly.

Oh man I really want this game. Backers, please. Keep backing. Back 'til you cannot forward.

[QUOTE=VikCreamCake;46098872]I know the assets aren't finished, but the ship designs imho are butt ugly.[/QUOTE] Agreed, they look like the blocky ship renderings from Halo CE.

This game does have a really neat concept though, much more hands on then other "bridge sims" like FTL. I'd back if I could afford it :(

I hope you'll be able to do EVAs, lead away-teams and board enemy ships... I also hope that you won't be restricted to just capital ships. I want to pilot multi-crewed fighters/corvettes.

[QUOTE=Valiantttt;46100381]doubt you can do that. although there is this small game that might allow you to do this. It isn't out yet.[/QUOTE] No man's sky, right?

Poor man's Star Citizen? I want to believe!

I want to pilot multi-crewed fighters/corvettes.[/QUOTE] [quote=Kickstarter FAQ][B]Can we board any ship in the fleet?[/B] We're aiming to make all human ship classes boardable, and you’ll be able to command from them in the same way as you would from the flagship. [B]Will we be able to fly the smaller ships like fighters and bombers?[/B] Yes, but we're not looking to compete with Star Citizen and it certainly won't be the focus of the game. It's also going to be harder to win a battle from the cockpit of a fighter, so make sure you have the upper hand before leaving the bridge! [/quote]

[QUOTE=DarkWolf2;46103401]quote[/QUOTE] Looks nice but again, I will be pessimistic even more since the budget they have for kickstarter(ofc private investors). Enough things have failed to live up to hype that I am very careful with hyping myself.

I want to pilot multi-crewed fighters/corvettes.[/QUOTE] The video even shows piloting a fighter, and they have said on the kickstarter page you can command your ships from any other ship in the fleet. They've said you probably won't be able to go on boarding missions yourself, although you might be able to direct your crew to do them. It wouldn't make much sense for the captain of a fleet to be boarding enemy ships.

Enough things have failed to live up to hype that I am very careful with hyping myself.[/QUOTE] They've actually shown on the Kickstarter page what they are going to do with the money though, they seem to know how much they need and aren't just guessing or something like that. This is one of the more unique games I've seen in a while but it seems unlikely it will actually get funded at the moment because of the lack of attention it's getting. Why would you rather miss out (If the kickstarter isn't successful) on a unique game with an idea that hasn't really been done before just because there's a slight chance it might not be as good as you are hoping, even though nothing really suggests that at the moment?

[QUOTE=nightlord;46103868]It wouldn't make much sense for the captain of a fleet to be boarding enemy ships.[/QUOTE] They do it on Star Trek.

I totally want to ram my flagship into stuff.

[QUOTE=Valiantttt;46100381]doubt you can do that. although there is this small game that might allow you to do this. It isn't out yet.[/QUOTE] What game is that?

They've released some examples of the ambient music they are working on: [url]https://soundcloud.com/farcloud/music-of-flagship-work-in-progress-1[/url] Seems pretty good.

There is a game already out, where you can design whole ships by yourself, colonize planets and build giant penises of spacestations around it if you want, all as a massively multiplayer online RPG, go boarding enemy ships if you want to, form alliances with other players and rule your empire in first person. And it is free.

And if you people are talking about these great space games how about ACTUALLY TELLING US THE FUCKING NAME

This is something I've been wanting for ages, a first-person FTL with multiplayer. This is going to be glorious!

They've added some exclusive rewards for anyone who backs the kickstarter and pledges at least £40. You'll get an exclusive turret, ship and pet shark.

Man we should do something to give this game more attention.

[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;46148066]Man we should do something to give this game more attention.[/QUOTE] Sites not saying anything about it seems to be the main reason it's not getting much attention, but i think it's the high tier prices and lack of many rewards in them that's stopping people from backing it, really. I've also seen people say they aren't going to back it because they aren't asking for a large amount of money for a game of this scale and because they aren't a well-known developer.
