im like 240K something. SO hopefully next batch. I hear its a bit buggy right now though so I guess we're not missing much.

Thats right. V0.8 of the Arena Commander is now out to download! This is the first of a few major parts to the full release that will allow everyone to fly in MP settings in all the game modes. This is the first time we can officially fly some of our ships! IF you have any Auroras, 300I or hornet ships you will have access to the basic version fo them for this part of the release. IF you dont have any of those ships, you will be giving one based on how much you've pledged for. This release includes the free flight mode for everyone along with the Vanduul Swarm. Fight against waves of Vanduul fighters in those mode. As time goes on and they ramp up servers and test stability more and more people will get access to the MP side of the game based on Citizen numbers. For now, ENJOY! WOOT WOOT! https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/13909-Arena-Commander-Launched Ducky

From what they actually had running and showed, I'm stupidly excited still for this. Just need to polish a few things from what they showed and we will be awesome.

CIG is at Pax East and todays the big day that they show off what they have done for the dog fighting module. This will be shown with their back end servers up and running hopefully so its what we can expect for when they release it to us Im excited to see what they have. If your up and want to watch, heres the link to watch: http://www.twitch.tv/roberts_space_ind_ch_1 If you miss it, im sure they will have it uploaded soon after for all to watch ducky

This is a game thats fun at the start, then becomes very quickly a hair polling out experience. After level 5, the game pretty much says "Good luck from here on out. Heres a level 30 with tank armor that makes your gun a BB gun while he's shooting nuclear bombs at you"

At least their admitting its in the alpha stages.. More than you get with an EA game

Cent. We need to know what you want to do. If you want to explore, then the 315 would be a better ship. If you want to bounty hunt, then you should look at the Avenger. The nice thing about the 300 series is you can really upgrade, or get it up to a good dog fighter or explorer ship or just a strait up zip around ship. It really comes down to what you want. Personally, I would go for the 300 series ship (350R more spacifically) as I like them a bit more than the Avenger, but I own both so.... =P

Ill pick this up on sale =P

minimum without alpha and beta access is 30$ https://robertsspaceindustries.com/store/315-aurora-mr if you want alpha and beta access then the cheapest is $40 https://robertsspaceindustries.com/store/316-aurora-mr both of those come with decent starting ships that will let you get money on game to buy other ships. If you want a ship with a little more punch, for 5$ more than that last pack you can get the aurora Ln pack. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/store/318-aurora-ln

Im excited for this, but the one downer to it is that you can only join 1 group at a time.. I have about 3 groups of people that I wanna fly and play with.

SOLD! I bought this at 75% off. WOOT WOOT

If it goes on sale for 50% off ill be grabbing this. Its on my wish list.

I have the Tali as well. I cant wait to see it fully made and in hangar. =) It will be a blast to fly around in. Also cant wait for my Cutlass to be finished. Its sooo close to being done I cant wait any longer. lol

WOOOO! more space ships! pew pew pew.

I love Battlefield friends! This is still by far my favorite episode:

Get a hold of Kal or Tyler. They can do it for you.

Evilducky is mine =)

cent just so you know that pack doesnt give you access to the alpha and beta stuff of the game. you need that digital mercenary pack for thay.

They are going to be releasing parts of the game in a modular forum. So they started with the Hangar modual, then they will add the dog fighting modual, then the ship boarding modual, then planet side modual, then the Squadren 42 Beta, then the Persitant Universe beta then the full game after that. Roughly everything stated there by the beginning of 2015 for everything being done. They are working hard on getting the dog fighting part done next, which is scheduled for around December to start. Wont be much, and the ships will be limited to what you have, but they will expand it and make it better over time. More info can be found: https://robertsspaceindustries.com Their 1 year anniversary live stream event can be watched here: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/about-the-game A bunch of concept arts can be found: https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/13863/official-concept-art-a-compilation/p1 Anything else you wanna know there killer, just ask and I can try and answer for ya =)

^^ more people yay!

They have the Hornet variants coming out today. Just so everyone knows.

I took some pictures this morning of my ships for anyone that doesnt have some, or have the hanger downloaded. Enjoy https://plus.google.com/photos/106284750072407732021/albums/5920923930219280289?banner=pwa&partnerid=gplp0

So I finally broke down and pledge and got a ship.. That was pretty much all my game money I had put aside of other games. Oh well. This should be fun. I got the RSI ship there and the 325i I think it was. So Im sure Ill see you guys around for this.

Like I said, even if they did port it over, all they would need to do is add graphic adjustment settins and control settings. The new consoles are running, 64bit O/S with DX11 cards, and 8gbs of ram. There will be no barriers or limitations to the game ports for a little bit with these specs. No until a 128bit os/ dx 12/14/18 or whatever comes next video cards, and a minimum of 16gb of ram are required.. So to be honest, Im not worried at the moment of consol ports. There is one concern I have right at the moment i guess it could affect this game as a port and that is the fact that they are doing this, design for the current gen consoles. They havent stated if they are designing for those first and porting them up. Once they start making for the new next gen consoles, then ports wont be a problem as stated above.
