Same plane

Post by Comet »

Greetings,

I noticed how in the demo (still playing it) all objects in Space are placed on the same plane. They take no advantage of the 3rd dimension.
Just wondering: is it the same in the retail version too?

Thanks
Ciao [:)]

P.S.= Since the retail version has now been released (btw --Milo: congrats!) can you please tell me in what is different from the demo (demo was from February, correct?)?
I'm not asking for spoilers -of course-, I'd just like to know about major changes.
Thank you very much in advance.
Have fun!

- More ships
- Cooler ships (Cruisers, fortresses, Hot XXX Email Teens)
- Better Mod support
- Several more single missions
- Three more complete dynamic campaigns and the complete version of Operation Highland.

Hmm I think everything is still sitting close to a level plane, at least what I've seen so far.
I don't mind though, if you throw things high above or far below each other they just take longer to get to. The only stuff you'd place like that are secret bases and such.

Of course ships are free to move about wherever they want.

More of everything. Straight off the bat as a new career in highland you get to see a cruiser sitting around and you get to fly a new bomber class ship which IMO is awesome :)

From what I understand there is heaps more still to be discovered ;)

Are you referring to private mails what is get in the game?
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

No, no, I'm not talking about the low low prices on, uhm, enlargement procedures.
