Space Backgrounds Preview

We mentioned in a previous update that all the missions for Episodes 1-6 are gameplay complete. I've personally played through each mission, and I am very excited with the results. In refining the missions, our team has taken a new approach to the mission design. We are conceptualizing the missions in smaller sections (e.g. individual nav points) while planning out the overall mission experience. We have focused on testing and reworking each smaller segment until it's fun. We, as designers, want to ensure that the entire experience is going to be great, and we think our new strategy is really paying off.
We are also knee deep in the production of space environments. We have a lot of pots on the stove right now, so to speak. We are playing with reintroducing some of the features we trimmed out of the Prologue, along with several new ideas that are already proving pretty promising. We may say more about those in future updates. I will say the entire team is really psyched right now about the way things are coming together. We think that the energy and synergy we are finding right now will really show in the final product. To give you just a small taste, take a peek at the following screen shots.

Uhhh those screens look sexy. This is torture, why r u doing this to me? I CAN\'T WAIT ANYMORE ... pleaaaaase, I\'m dying. I hope it comes out this yr.
Amazing! :eek
they look awsome, i love the style and everything, and that hellcat and excalibur look good, they look like they have been threw hell and back. hahaha.continue the great work, belive me like so many other im tryin to be patent. lol
Those look really nice! Both the backgrounds and the ships are almost photorealistic-looking. :)I am really looking forward to this...
Great job, guys!
:eek Amazing guys!!!:roll Thougth I put an idea I had into this.
Not every plane of the same kind should also wear same skin.
Different squadrons should use differend insignias and maybe also different paintings!
I don\'t know if you guys work on that allready, but it would give the game a more realistic touch!
Keep up the great work!!!
Been watching WC Saga for sometime now and it\'s nice to hear that the game is very close in being complete and your new batch of screenshots look good.
every time i look at this site i get more and more exited about this game these screenshots look incredible ... i was just wondering if you guys were still planning on including cockpit views in the final release?
Guys this looks amazing... Congrats to your team\'s perseverance.
The original plan for cockpit implementation had to be scraped due to some change in the source code. While it is still possible to add cockpits, it is not possible to use HUD gauges as instruments. So it all comes down when SCP developers implement map_hud_to_text ure function. The release of the game does not depend on cockpits, although I agreee, that it would be nice to have them. Should this come to pass, then we\'ll try to implement cockpits after the release.
Those look...amazing.There are two things I\'d be willing to do:
1. Wait longer for proper cockpits.
2. Buy, as in for money, this game when it comes out.
Ditto that, I would gladly pay for this game. It is very clear that a lot of effort went into the mod. At least put up a \'donation\' pay-pal account once released. Thank you for putting this mod together.
