[sscadmin]

Hehe which one? Starwraith Games has quite a few:Arvoch ConflictEvochron Series (Evochron, Evochron Alliance, Evochron Renegades, Evochron Legends)RiftspaceStarwraith I,II,III,IVEvochron Legends being the latest and there is a free demo you can play to give it a spin. I have only played the demo of this game and liked it. The transitionless planet to space and vise-versa is great and I like the one universe system (no loading screens ever). And I particularly liked the modular ship design.

I found the game to be fun, but offering little in the way of structure. For instance, I joined, flew to a station... and...It took a bit to get used to the cluttered HUD, and when I did, I accepted a mission that had me cleaning Solar Panels. Easily earned cash in hand, I flew back and tried mining the planet surface. During no point during any of this did I ever see another ship. It felt empty. Multiplayer seemed to aleviate this, and the one server I joined happened to have folks willing to play. Everyone gave some pointers, and I learned about the campaign 'buoys' as well as the fleet battles going on in the fringe. Overall I didn't stick with it after I bought it. I think it just needs some polish on the HUD front, some more NPC's, and maybe more types of missions (Let me join the military, or a merchants guild or something. Let me fight pirates etc etc.) Its an amazing accomplishment in regards to it being developed by one person however, and I am still impressed at the amount of work put into it.

There is a few mods for the HUD in there forums. I usually cannot believe that Legends is in a small package (60MB download) and all it offers in that small package. I know Legends is supposed to be totally open and you can even find some sectors not on the maps.

Love playing Legends, its open game play lets you do whatever you want to in the game, no being tied down to a linear storyline. There is a beacon quest for people that like doing that kind of thing that leads to a system way off the charts.Multiplayer adds a great dynamic to the game. Legends is not an MMO, so often the servers can be found empty. I've found that if you stay on a server for a while others will also join in.I hear that there is a brand new (not a sequel like Legends is for Renegades) freeform game coming out in the fall of 2010 that is also based in the Evochron system.

Sunderer, do you have a link to a post or a page for this info I would be grateful. I have looked before and never could find anything on the next new project.

There was an article at thegamecreators website about the new planet rendering system.There is some music released from the game on youtube. I guess we're all waiting for more info on the game details.

Is there a working title name for the game yet? So I can do some digging.

[Sunderer]

I think it's Mercenary, going by the youtube result I found.
