    Is there any timeline or roadmap on KS commitments? How high are these on the priority list? Do you guys have plans on working on these? Near-term? Long-term? Are they presently being worked upon? The majority of these are not completely implemented. I just don't want to see what happened with HR occur again.:(

    A couple of those are already in the game....

    Unicron is in, gas giant and giant straws are in. You should really try out the game again? XD

    There's a reason I put an asterisk on the Gas Giants and Enhanced Orbital units because I wasn't sure on how much was completed. Just like the rest of the stretch goals it could've been partially implemented. I will come back and play as soon as they make Galactic War easier to play. Also /S on the giant straw is a joke from neutrino. He made it a while back little over a year ago.:eek: The unicorn cannon aka unit cannon also a joke.;) I shouldn't tell jokes because I feel that.:oops:
    One unit does not count as multiple separate units. Which is why it's plural not singular.;)
    Mods don't count as if Uber did it themselves. Mods are by nature are not made by the original creators because third party content.;)

    I have one requirement for this list it must be directly and cited from the kickstarter campaign. Now for the gameplay visualization or concept video or pitch video; PA was never going to look exactly like it. It is reasonable because it's purely conceptual video.;)

    Congratulations, Planetary Annihilation made its Kickstarter goal, panic over.

    I don't remember Tsunami's, and you can make any kind of asteroid you like.

    Okay, I read through the Kickstarter sources and I can't find anything else that you missed.

    I thought the developers confirmed that tsunamis and water simulation were not going to be in.

    So far, the only way to make asteroids is to add a moon template, reduce radius to 100, and build three planet thrusters. The game needs to have dedicated asteroids like the ones in the visualization video.

    Where did they say that and did they give any reasonable reason?

    IIRC, the video showed three small rocks called asteroid. I can make three small rocks and call them asteroid. Asteroids are small rocks.

    Goal accomplished.

    Did they ever say they were going to be in the game? I don't recall that.

    None of your naval stuff is sourced.
