Great trailer.  I especially like the "Coming November 2009" part! [:D]

[Wade1000]

Nice. Thank you. You all are keeping us informed. Just yesterday I was hoping some new information or video comes out soon.

It's a good commercial. I hope you could also release a video of several minutes of game play and voice narration.

Yeah, they "accidentally" let slip the latest possible release date...

[Terminus]

Definitely going to get this, BTW. Been seriously deficient in good 4X games for a long time now.

[martok]

Very cool. I anticipate being able to order this when I get back from Thanksgiving (I hope, I hope!). [;)]

[IronWarrior]

Reminds me a lot of Sins of a Solar Empire which was extremely too fast paced for me. My opponents all had APM's of like 434234 and i was at 42 lol. The graphics were pretty cool, but I couldn't enjoy them because the pace was so fast and I had to remain zoomed out.

Am I totally wrong (I hope)?

[ASHBERY76]

It has a turn based campaign and real time battles.

[IronWarrior]

Ah that sounds interesting, I saw 4x and immediately thought RTS. [:D]

[balto]

This looks really, really, really good. A must have.

Thanks for the video.

Huh? I'm guessing you're not very familiar with the 4x sub-genre, then.

I say that because the vast majority of space strategy 4x games are turn-based, not real-time. Games like Sins are the exception to the rule, not the norm.

(EDIT: Or are you merely implying that you're that addicted to Sins? [;)] )




In any case, I've long been waiting for a game like Armada. A space 4x title that has turn-based empire management combined with real-time battles? Sign me up!

No, I realize it's not the first game to do this. However, it is the first one I've that appears to really incorporate most of the things I've been looking for in a space strategy title. The release date can't come soon enough for me!

[PDiFolco]

The trailer is nice, but it goes waaay too fast, as if it was done to promote the idea that it's a clickfest RTS !! [X(][:D]

I also have SoaSE with the expansion and I won't play it anymore. Just can't do well with most real time games and SoaSE gave me a hard time too. You are not alone... [;)]

However, this title I WILL buy the moment it is available. [&o]

[noxious]

Don't worry, there is a pause button for the real time battles. And the rest is turn based
Shogun:TW in space is not an inapt comparison, not at all.

[GShock]

I'm trying to resist but I already have the debit card at hand...

Gamestop has this game release date listed on tuesday, November the 17th(tomorrow).  Will this game be ready for download tomorrow?

[EisenHammer]

I guess not. lol

[martok]

I learned long ago to not trust release dates by Gamestop (or just about anyone else, really); they're rarely more than educated guesses anyway. Unless & until an official date is announced by the developer/publisher, I always look at such "release dates" with a very large grain of salt.

Matrix has said they're shooting to have Armada out in time for Thanksgiving, so hopefully we'll be able to get in the next week here.

[EisenHammer]

Gamestop now has it listed as release and shipping within 24 hours.
Still not to sure if its real or not.
