Yeah, that's frustrating as hell, 'preciate all the efforts though..this is a great thread

Yeah thanks for all the efforts maintaining this thread mate :)
Hmmm whats with the sudden rash of space sim type games?. Before it was rpg's and adventures.. what comes next? lol

Best ways to keep track of all the final completion/release dates of projects if one has backed a lot? KS doesn't make it easy...(any suggestions?)

A better comparison for Squadron 42 would be Starlancer / Wing Commander : military story-driven campaign.

Star Citizen is indeed aiming for a Freelancer / Privateer MMO.
I've never played a MMO in my life but I would if Star Citizen could achieve at least half its promises.

$23,000 to go until Single Player Campaign and only 22 hours left.
That will be a close one...

And that's official : <span class="bold">FleetCOMM</span> is back for another run.
But this time there's a $50,000 goal.

I asked Slade Villena about a DRM free version and this time it's OK : @Astral Wanderer : that's an unexpected move, isn't it ? :D

I agree, yeppers, he has even made several references to Wing Commander in his many interviews. Either way, looking at the most recent update, and the video showing the individual thusters and "fly by wire" mechanics of ship control, looks simply awesome. Kinda looks like you'll be flying a "Harriet" type space ship, with Newtonian Physics...how cool is that? This may be the first game to pull me into MP online..we'll see, lol.

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on MORE also, hoping to see a bunch more peeps joining on, or many of the very lower tier folks upping their pledge a little to make more stretch goals. Looks like this is gonna be a another good time waster also (just what I need :-P)

Thanks :)

For the record, the M.O.R.E. team plans to put up an Indiegogo campaign too, so you can always pledge more later.

lowyhong, you do a great job keeping the OP updated. Kudos to you, good sir (or madam).

Thanks!

Putting this here first in case I forget to add later.

Looks gorgeous, but I'll probably stay out - I'm never going to have time to play it along with all the other stuff I've pledged to.
I'm gobsmacked - did someone hit him over the head recently? :)

However he has some gall saying : "Tired of having to buy a game over and over again? Mercenary Games would like to offer you a simpler gaming investment. " when this is his second KS and third crowdfunding campaign for the same game. I'll give this a miss - not least since I've got Skyjacker and Kinetic Void to look forward too.
*cringes*
OK, the three I'd single out would be , [url=http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/327124867/aldarok-games/]Aldarok (probably more for its artwork) and Mercenary Dark.

And thanks again for keeping this thread up-to-date - despite all the money it's costing us!

PS: backers may want to check out the forum if they've not already done so - lots of info like the [url=http://www.malevolencegame.com/forum/threads/i-found-a-thing.83/]I found a thing! thread.

Last updates:

M.O.R.E. finished sucessfully, achieving $90.925 from a minimum goal of 50k
The Silver Token achieved his minimum goal of 1.5k, with 15 days to go


Campaigns finished without sucess:

Nexus 2: The Gods Awaken
StarJacked
Origin - The Flood Is Coming

and 3089 has only 2 days left to go, it is now 400% over the goal (trending towards 430%)

As I told him, $50,000 will be a tough run. I'm not sure the 467 backers from the first run will invest more on FleetCOMM. We'll see...

Is there some news about Skyjacker ? I saw some Digitilus comments on <span class="bold">Divine Space</span> KS but nothing about their own game.

It is 1939, a war is showing up as a possibility in Europe, and the U.K. goverment decides to organise its most intelligent people in an operation that was so secret that it only was revealed decades later and even today most people don't know about it.

This is the real-life story of what gave inspiriation to the James Bond novels, of what made the very PC, laptop, tablet or whatever you use possible.

It is the story of Alan Turing and eight thousand other people saving the world, and of what happened to their workplace afterwards.

Without them, the invasion at the Normandy never might have happened, Hitler might have stretched on the war for a few more years and completed his genocide in Europe. And then the Russians might have raped every woman they find, conquering Europe, ultimately - in the Cold War Crisis - culminating in the end of the world. Although this fictional scenario is not described in the book. :-)

Last piece of news I heard from them was that they closed off the crowdfunding campaign on their website. Looks like they're going full speed ahead soon, cap'n.

Oh boy this looks great:
