To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Video showing some of the suggestion which have been added to the game on Steams early access.

 

Bit of a shame you can't see anything as they have overlaid it with some sort of graphic fuzz.

A new trailer to celebrate the full release of Starpoint Gemini 2, that is just around the corner.

 

Will we finally see the box version of this or do they just mean it's coming out of Steams early access?.

Haarlem, The Netherlands – 11 September 2014 – A year after entering Steam’s Early Access program, space sim/ RPG favourite Starpoint Gemini 2 is nearing completion. To mark this, a new cinematic trailer has been released today, featuring a spectacular raid in deep space. Check it out now on the Iceberg Youtube Channel or download it here

 

 

Developer Little Green Men Games will also push another big update for the game on Friday 12 September, which includes the Steam Big Picture feature. With full controller support, Big Picture mode will let gamers kick back and enjoy the game on the biggest screen in house. 

 

Other update highlights include:

About Starpoint Gemini 2

The sequel to Starpoint Gemini is a tactical space simulator with tons of RPG depth! Players will captain their own space ship and roam the galaxy in 3D - space has never looked so inviting - but images can betray... It has been two years since the end of the second Gemini war, and the situation in the war-torn system is further from resolution than ever before. 

 

Key features: 

• Complex, but easy-to-use RPG system, now coupled with dynamic real-time 3D combat. 

• Explore the dynamic game world as a whole, rather than through individual maps. 

• Use T-Gates, wormholes and rift ways to travel faster around the Gemini System . 

• Fifty diverse factions ranging from states and companies to outlaws, locked in a power struggle, with over 100 commodities to trade or plunder. 

• Special revocable licenses acquired from factions offer various bonuses and unlock new options. 

• Hire mercenary captains to follow you on your travels and share your fate, and employ officers to fill key positions on your ship (engineering, navigation, tactical).

• Random missions get generated depending on the player’s actions and allegiances.

• Over 70 unique ships, fully upgradeable with various ship systems, with, amongst other things, visible turrets, and a large arsenal of heavy weapons to blast enemies to pieces. 

• Direct ship controls create complete immersion. 

• Advanced physics provided by NVIDIA PhysX technology 

• Enables modding through Steam Workshop
