Two images of the game and interface and the diplomacy dialog. Also two ship images.
Stays very faithful to the original, but with colorful new graphics.
While I wouldn't mind a new GalCiv game, the blast from the past I'd really like to see updated or redone is Imperium Galactica II. Go vote for it at GoG and we may see it available there soon.
Alpha should be out around early 2014. And every other week more info gets thrown at us (though mid December Stardock takes vacation). I'll try to keep folks updated from time to time.
Guys its just a trailer saying hey were baking GC3 and whats going on in Brads mind in his little universe he created. Take it with a grain of salt. Its what starts getting peoples attention and then they slowly give out more info once things get ironed out ie alpha, beta, release, yada yada... They do have some crazy good leadership that Brad brought in with all that Impulse money. Best thing they ever did selling it off and getting back to software and games.
I would also like an updated IG II. I would pay good money for it. [:)]
Oh and one last thing. Yes Elemental started out really bad. Why- Brad did goof ie Impulse sucked up most the finances ie software division dried up ie like Fences, game division dried up and most experience and resources went into Impulse due the crazy money it was making. So after firing lots of people Brad had 2 choices, A. Stardock goes digital Distribution route and scraps both the game and software division or B. Sell Impulse.
We at the end of the day Brad wanted to make games and tech so they sold it to Gamespot. This was a good move, Rehired everyone that got canned (with one exception that found another job elsewhere). 2 free expansions to say they were sorry, Hired up crazy good leadership and workers, made a new company that will develop engine for RTS called Nitrous, investment fund for new companies to make games, and GC3! I don't know how much money Brad got May 2011 from GS but its crazy...
