Saw this cool new game on kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/project...ategy-from-a-first-person-perspe?ref=category Its an RTS....in first person....? ya, looks really interesting ^^ as you can be in a starship commanding a fleet.
I've been following the devs on twitter for a while, there's lots of attention to detail, things like fuel/ammo trucks for the hangar. My first PC game was X-Wing vs Tie Fighter so I have a soft spot for space sims, plus it has Rift support. Backed!
I think I was going to make a thread about it but at the time there were already about six other threads that I'd made on the first page so i thought "better not".
This just looks amazing, I've backed it at the new beta tier. It's ambitious, still I've *always* wanted to play a space game from this perspective. The style of play is very reminiscent of 'Wing Commander' type combat (i.e. space carrier based warfare with battle groups and wings of fighters + bombers) so this just looks perfect. I also like the idea that battles are going on in different systems and that you can only *directly* control whichever battle you happen to commit your particular battle group and that you must rely on the AI to handle the other systems. That coupled with ships getting significantly better with experience suggest you could level up your battle-group then use your experienced ships for head up new smaller groups... oh the possibilities!
