Waited all the day for this vid!
very very nice
The Kickstarter has absolutely exploded and I am excited to get in on this game at the ground floor. Having pledged for 4 sets of Shaltari I am off to a good start. This game continues to look better and better as more info is released. It is clear that the kickstarter has gone far better than hawk imagined and as they play catch up with the amount of data and feedback they have received. This silence as the work has disgruntled a few because they love communication with the company during a kickstarter. This will sure change in the… Read more »
SO EXCITED.
C’mon! Release all 3 videos at once please! Who wants to watch part of a video?
Just thinking about it would it make sense to up speed in low orbit and again in atmosphere to account for curvature?
The backers broke the Hawk guys a little yesterday, they weren’t expecting the acceleration of it!
well as long as hawks not making any move right now i’ll watch the vids over and over again i guess *g*
Still really excited about this game. seeing it in Action only imakes me want it sooner!
Dropzone Commander already looked impressive but as a fan of spatial encounters i’m more interested in Dropfleet Commander. I’m gonna keep an eye on it ! 😉
Can’t wait to see more on this! Getting some DZC in this weekend to celebrate.
The spike and scan values remind me a lot of modern naval warfare games where managing your electronic signature is critical.
Can’t wait until this is released!
I’ve increased my pledge! I hate you guys haha
Great, keep up the good work.
Just back from work, just what I was looking for 🙂
I can’t wait to get my hands on this beauty 🙂
Love the terminology; station keeping, weapons free, etc.
You should call the standard order weapons tight. Sounds better.
I waited for this Video really bad! 🙂
Thanks a lot for doing this BoW and Hawk games. Hopefully we will see another KS update today?
Great video, can’t wait for more.
Really excited for this! Great vid.
I like the way this seems to play. Still similar to dropzone but with some neat different mechanics.
Im in for captain.
Looking great. Really enjoying the videos.
June is so, so far away….
is there a mechanic to hide in the environment or since it’s orbital assumes you can see trough clouds and pretty much anything?
i guess i’d try a mechanic to hide my ships untill they are in spike + scan range (something like camouflage in infinity) but i don’t know if it becomes a little much cumbersome
