That was my guess.

I would say the chances of it showing up are not good.

But then 3 weeks ago I would have laughed at the idea of a game looking just like ASL showing up this month too. Sure was surprised there.

I miss playing Steel Panthers. It got me into computer war gaming in the 90s. But I've gotten tired of the agro trying to play it on anything other than a museum computer with a OS I'm glad to have forgotten.

If it shows up, if it looks just like Steel Panthers, I will cheer.

No need for that. Get WinSpMBT - plays well on Windows 8 and at higher resolutions.

I saw Erik post something on DW 2, not specific but there appeared to be life in DW 2 land. I thought that was never going to happen. So add in DW 2 to my must-haves for this coming year.

Looking forward to get Hearts of Iron IV, Stellaris and Polaris Sector. If they are working on Distant Worlds 2, I would be interesting in that as well.

It is more likely that they release the 'flying pig' simulator.

MOO?? !!!

Post by balto »

I follow Quill 18 and he is playing a new version of MOO. I checked Steam and crazy enough, it will be released (beta) 2-26-15!! I do not know how this game slipped under my radar. I watched his first video and it looks like fun. Polaris does not come out until 3-22-16 so I am going to get MOO in the interim and see if it is any good.

I have a feeling this will not be as good as Polaris because MOO kind of snuck-up on me and Polaris has been leading us down the road of development for a while now and it looks mega-great.

I will read the Forum on Steam for this in the coming days. It seems others have known about this for a while now because some of the posts are from June 2015. AS I said before, I have no idea how this snuck past my "gaming radar."

2016 must be the year of the Space 4x.., MOO, Polaris, Stellaris, Endless Space 2, and hopefully DW 2.., freaking great year for gaming!!!!!!!!!!!

I hear ya, though I was the only one wanted part two. It can be done, just need 3D models and realistic maps and keep the codes as it is. Really like to see real time naval engagement from above or controlling the camera pov.

I just bought it and it works!! Steam says it is not up until tonight (6 hours). But it's up and its running, I went thru about 5 minutes of it to ensure it is working. I have some errands to run but I am going to put some hours in tonight. Appreciate if anyone could share some info on this if they get it also.

Just bought what? MoO came out lastnight, early and look nice. Gonna wait til they add my favorite race the Klackon. Many fans are upset over the turn based, real time combat seem perfect for that game.
