Thanks Sunderer for this great news.

I was reading overall all the FAQs and features and Mercenary is going to be the best. And it's great wanting Evochron get better and better on every release. You can immediately see the gfx improvements over Legends. More ship equipment, station building and shipwrecks 🙂

The FALL cannot come soon enough for me... looking forward to chatting about this one.

Here is some of the pics I liked:

Wow. Awesome.

So, with school, and job searching, I have really only bothered playing IL2 Sturmovick and a few other flight sims. The only space sim left on my comp was Evochron Legends. I have yet to really dig deeply into the game. (Have only visited one other system, and gotten a taste for combat.) On the official Evo forums, they mentioned something big coming, but I didn't think it would be an entirely new game! Plus I can choose my start now? How awesome is that. Probably my most anticipated space sim right now. (Should REALLY get back into Legends.)

<3 for the find! Teaches me to leave my space sims behind! 😛

*EDIT*

After making a post on their forums I noticed they had a series of training videos. Head to this link.

I will try to pick this up day one, then it is finding the time to dedicate to the game 🙂 Time is my worst enemy these days it seems.... Wonder if the price will still be $25 like all the previous releases?

So excited. So sick of waiting. The price point was mentioned at 25, or 30, but with a 5 dollar discount if you own Evochron Legends. If I recall correctly.

That a pretty good size I just need to get my paypal account sort out. 🙄

Do you know if there will be a demo of the game,Or will it like the previous games where you download the whole game.

There has been demos for all the games I wouldn't see why not because it is a sales thing as well. Because it is a timed demo and usually only runs for 60-90mins of gameplay.

Since Mercenary is going to be released very soon (tomorrow) I have created a gallery for it so please Upload any of your pics to it that you might want to share. It's empty for right now but I will include a few that I really like from the website.

Whoever asked about the size, Vice just put up a post.

The download is about 230 MB in size

So its quite a bit larger then Legends. Also, Vice just put up a post mentioning that the game will be up soon, both on Impulse, Gamershell, and the main site. It may be live before your emails. Here is a link to the post.

I'm pretty angry right now, so I'll leave it to you guys to decide whats what. Hopefully I'll be playing before midnight. Or maybe Im just getting excited.
