Wow!! It is looking better and better!

[quote who="bleybourne" reply="71" id="3707063"] I'm not convinced there's even going to BE a GotP. It's been 25 years, you might think they might have found some time in the last 25 years to doodle at least an idea or two about a possible next game on a napkin. But no, there's nothing at all, they have literally not started a single thing for a sequel/new game, and yet chose to jump in with their threats and lawsuits right as SCO's hype was starting to get to decent levels (and have man

Wow, I am proud to be a lifetime Founder of Star Control Origins. Hats off to you again for a great update!

[quote who="SchismNavigator" reply="10" id="3687413"] It's great to hear that founders will soon get access to a full fledged version of Super Melee. With any luck we might even have enough people to do some kind of friendly tournament hosted on the Discord server. The ship builder is sure to make even something like that more interesting than it would normally be. However, I confess that it is the adventure mode I am most looking forward to. For me it does not matter if the v

Welcome to the forums!

@ Xiaorai I know what you mean, however a lot of good things can happen to the game if the tools are good. Just look at the many diverse and amazing ships that players created i

In the recent voice chat, it was mentioned that the story has been written for over 3 years. I agree with Coure, Story, dialogue and Flavor-text all are a substantial part of Star Control. I am looking forward to how the dialogue evolves.

Rhonin, thank you for the update. I will troll the ashes board for information.

I will chime in here for Hyperspace. I agree with Volusianus on interpretation. I would like to see a red haze that you 'uncover' as you pilot your ship thru hyperspace, very similar to how FOW is removed in Gal Civ III. Initially you do not know where any stars are and will have to head off into a general direction blindly. Once you 'discover' a star, from that point you can 'click on it' and have the option to auto travel to it. I am positive this is NOT how Frogboy wants to i

Greetings folks. I had wrote a bit over on Discord and realized that it should be posted here. I have some questions about the engine itself which is running SCO. To my knowledge Gal Civ III was a custom engine that is now optimized (very very well) to utilize multi thread cpu's with really no limit on the number of threads it will use if you give it to the game. Ai determinations and many processes have now been off loaded onto its own thread. I daresay that thanks to the CEO o

Indeed, thank you for the link over in Discord. I have got my voice set up and look forward to seeing how things evolve and having the privilege and opportunity in participating in the process. I like the idea of ship construction. The engine and parts from Gal Civ III are perhaps the best ship designer on the market and I am eager to see what the modding community comes up with.

So I am not a game pad kinda guy. Will we still be able to play..and play well using keyboard n mouse?

Greetings, So after a few articles it is clear that Stardock is actually hurting itself by rewarding its most loyal clients with beta access. Those of us (including myself) who have purchased into the Lifetime Founder package would normally get access to this game and others somewhere in the Beta process. By having this access we founders are not unable to have our review count on Steam. Its complete and utter crap as Steam 'thinking' that we somehow got access to the game for f

Discord is what has replaced skype as its easier to communicate. I suggest if you reconsider not using Discord. The 'Star Control' Channel is by invite only right now. I am an elite founder as well and there have been NO KEYS distributed for Beta since Beta has not started yet.

I wanted to update you folks on what my issue was. One of my ram modules was bad and was the reason why I was crashing. After RMA'ing my ram and getting new sticks the issue I had went away. Months now after this post I have had zero issues. Thank you all for the info here. As posted prior I will have a chance to build a new rig and will likely go I9 and either a pair of gtx1070's or one gtx1080. I wanted to upgrade my monitor. I curre

Well you will get access I guess to the Beta. Its not actually open at the moment.

Greetings S.C fans~! I am a 'virgin' to the entire experience. I am reading now on the lore and the game. I am a big fan and supporter of Stardock and have heard of Star Control but never played any version of it. Since I have no experience with it I guess the lack of the previous races does not bother me and I look forward to seeing what will be coming down the road. I am curious to hear about the previous game though. .. What is floo?

Thank you. I have been reading much on the game and the Lore. I can see the attraction. I have read Frog's articles and I am very happy to hear of a solid single player campaign. This is what I was looking for, an immersive Sci Fi game. What is super melee and why is it such a big deal? I am just now catching up on reading Frogs monthly updates via the vault. So much good stuff in there thank you!

Greetings folks. I know absolutely nothing about Star Control the game or its lore. Where can I go to learn more without bothering all of you? What is floo and why do I care? Thanks very much!

Greetings Folks, New lifetime founder here. looking forward to all things Star Control. Would you believe I know NOTHING about the game or original SC1 or 2? Never played either. I have no idea about the lore. I just now that the game will be good. Cheers!
