How is the progress going?

Post by WarpRat »

Are we at the Gamestorm version yet? Im only asking because I'm bored with what is out there on the NET! And Im so tired of paying way too much for something that keeps me about as interested as a caterpillar at its crucial moment before the butterfly. So here is hoping that "we" our close to a version that we all love.

Text version is about as exciting as text porno!

Well I can tell you that what's keep ME busy is Call of Duty:MW2, but again, that's me... gotta level up somehow ;)
otherwise not much I can say except a little bit of nothing so far, some chat client to test is it, hardly needing testing till there's more to do with it than there currently is/was.

The alpha PM test appears to have gone well, just with very few participants. I don't really foresee any more 'PM Only' runs as the interest just isn't there without the rest of the game.

As Beaker stated, there isn't much in terms of a finalized products, but I feel I am making steady progress. I have the base code complete for the Flight Server and Client which has full interaction with planets, but there are no ships or flight yet, I am just starting that now.

My initial goal is to have something 'playable' by the end of February. Whether that will be an 'alpha' quality or 'beta' quality product, I'm still not sure, but I'm gaining confidence as I expand the code base. I suspect I'll have ships & movement in an alpha format (probably no or little combat) within a month.

It should be noted that part of the length of this project, aside from the fact this is my hobby project, is that I'm making everything as dynamic as possible, and I'm trying to make sure it will have expandability in the future as well. This means various things, like having different speed settings, and cost settings, but also ranges up to more ship classes, different ship values, more stars/planets/provinces, etc.

I just purchased a PS3 a couple of weeks ago. Im playing CallofDuty4 Moderen Warfare online. I love the game.. just not feeling it as much as others. I played Americas Army and Socom2..sort gets boring after awhile. "Learn the map and shoot the other guy" BORING!

I play Warbirds constantly. I love the feeling of flying and am a big fan of WW2. I can SNAP ROLL a "ZEKE" with the best of them. So thats me.

Anyways.. Just waiting for SE to come back on-line. With all the games I have played ..I just keep looking this one up.

Good luck Willis I hope you succeed and bring a bigger smile back to my face :) and regardless . We all appreciate the hard work.

2 Thumbs UP!
