Seems like textures are a bit bad. Needs work on physical damage effects. Something like plating coming lose and holes in the armor or laser burns on the hull would be so EPIC i swear u could win game of the century.
good ol gustav holst music. i'm pretty sure. can you fly HUGE battleships? what is the fighting like. it said it wasn't point and click.
i wish there was a game that made it so each guild had it's own flagship that it could fly around and people could walk inside (like SWG) and then the guildmembers that weren't high rank could have smaller fighters in the hanger while high ranks fly the biggies. and you should be able to board ships. i love in SWG how you can walk inside ships with others.
you have complete control over your ship so unlike other games where only stats that matter you have to drive your ship with WASD i think pitch and yaw with the mouse and target and shoot your lasers with ur mouse
of course, that is not set in stone yet. Ongoing discussions about this is taking place on the forum and the general idea is that the style you described will be the one fighters and sub-hunter ships will have. The larger capital ships like haulers, frigates and carriers etc, will probably use a more convenient system. In the prototype i think piloting the carrier with wasd and mouse seems out of scale and ruins the experience...
i've played the prototype. even though its in development, its still pretty deep. such flying INTO (not just on) an asteroid. tunnels, dogfights, mining (yes, mining) can all happen inside an asteroid. i think thats pretty sweet.
This game looks great, just cant help think that some of the ships look like they've come from Homeworld2, EVE Online and StarWarsEmpire at War:Forces of Corruption
Um... what's wrong with that? Those games you just named have some of the coolest looking ship designs. I think what's more important than originality, is variety and quality. Borrowing some of the best quality ship designs ever made, and focusing time that would've been spent on originality elsewhere would be far better. "Elsewhere" being perhaps higher quality textures or even just enhanced game play experience (fights, flight-control, LANDING ON A FREAKING PLANET WITH NO LOADING TIMES, etc.)
but, in favor of this game, i would like to point out that planetary landings and dogfights are something EVE is sorely lacking... if this game ever makes it to prodution, i would not hesitiate to try it
this indeed looks like a genuine star wars fight :D
i think its pretty interesting that the game will actually feature close-up planetary surfaces. imgaine housing/building factories on planets and shipping off yer goods to space under escort weee
This is how i wish eve combat was like. But anyways, it seems possible someone could just land a fighter on a big enemy ship and just shoot everywhere.
for anybody else who looks at this before the site, the game isn't going to be out till at least mid-lae 2008, there is only the Combat Prototype u see here to play, and it is NOT representative of the full game, only a test for the combat mechanics and other basic mechanisms of the game, the finished product will be much better :D
I'm guessing u fly the ships directly, from wot it looks like though some ships r slower to turn than others, and if ur using a mouse it can go off da pad b4 u've even made it round (ala X Universe). I'd like to see the 'Freelancer' way where u move da cursor da way u wanna face and the ship moves at best speed to line up with it, just a thought ^_^
You guys rock! I've been following Infinity since the first screenshots when you could see other planets from the flat surface of the one you were exploring! This game has evolved beyond any space game I've ever seen! :D
could u upload a How to download tutorial im having trouble Getting it to work?

It kind of reminds me of Escape Velocity from Ambrosia Software for some reason. Apart from done in three dimensions as opposed to a top down view.
