well.. the post is old... more than "half a year" old :)
By now, i have less and less time for my hobbies, so i don't think i will change to supcom. I´m happy to be able to do most of the stuff i need in Spring, learning it all over again for supcom ... no way.
Even more after i heard of FA and Supcom2... don't want to develop for an nearly dead engine.
This being said, i like supcom. its fun, for me and many other people on the net. Its not spring, and yes, that is why i play both, they are both fun.
Also supcom has some nice things like the auto formations for ships and a better hit sphere system: Boxes are better than "blobs".
By now i will be glad if i can finish ES 0.6 and maybe the third faction for 1.0 ... but it will cost another year of moding for sure, maybe even more.
Btw, i want to thank everybody who tried the older versions. I decided nearly to stop the project when i realized that ES0.4 was having more than 1000 downloads.
I know not everybody who loaded it, liked it. But at least man tried it, thanks again for that.
@sniff: i hope you are not serious with that statement. i made 0.x-0.5 for spring, so why don't try it? Only because the game will be remake for another engine?
Like most mods here, it surely will never be finished...
@smokingwreckage: it would not that reason, more like some features of the engine and that i like the game... nothing more. The size of the audience here is just fine, i find some people, who like to play sometimes ES with me and give me hints on what is missing or wrong. I don't think i need more, and in supcom, a space mod would be as welcome as here... people don't play such games like TA or supcom for space battles, they want to play ground fights: tanks, planes, ships.
