When is the projected release of v3.0 Final?  I want to try out the pre-release but if the final version is close to going live I would rather wait for that.  Also will this enable the Armada to work on 64 bit systems with lots of ram?

I use 8 gigs of ram on vista, and it would suck if I could not play it.

It probably won't be out for awhile  ; play the PR, and join the rest of us online 

It'll be worth the wait  [br]Posted on: February 25, 2008, 11:27:33 PM

I just noticed something... not sure if anyone saw this... but one of the pictures has an explosion occuring NOT on the main plane: in other words, the explosion is vertical! Does this mean all explosions have random explosion vectors (not like PR) or is this just a mirage?

Is that your German heritage showing through in your grammar?

Thank you so much  [br]Posted on: April 24, 2008, 06:53:28 PM

Just wondering... does that also mean all the other effects are spherical as well (like mine detonations, artillery explosions, special weapons etc...)?

Yay!  News!!

Any screenshots of the effect?

Yup, first page: there is an explosion in one of the images that looks vertical, instead of horizontal. Although the team did not announce it, it looked peculiar to me... and tadaaa!!! we have spherical explosions!

that one just looks vertical.

could be the angle throwing me off, though.

Trust me, it ain't vertical (plus, even vertical would be a BIG change...but no it's not  ) . Plus the developer's confirmed the whole spherical explosion thingy
