If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
What Does a Martian Look Like?: The Science of Extraterrestrial Life
by Jack Cohen and Ian Stewart
In addition to his "day job" as a biologist and lecturer Jack Cohen (D.Sc) worked with sf and fantasy authors and with science fiction TV shows regarding the creation of plausible aliens.
He had some great ideas - rooted in science (as we know it) - about how they might look etc. Could help provide some of the "focus" they talk about looking for.
They already did Space Whales, lmao.

Yes... let it die with the best funding month to month of CIG existence. and ten thousands New backers joining at every patch... during alpha buggy phase. Clearly a majority of the gamer community support you rather than CIG :!) 90 days top man!
Meh. At least it's not about ships for sale that may take years to ever actually be flyable.
Do players need any kind of special properties,types of weapons for types of creatures,resistances etc etc.
Game=sum of the parts
Game bin=a whole bunch of parts,sort of like dirty clothes in the hamper.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Back in March they still planned to have Squadron 42 beta in Q3, but they've since announced that that ETA is not kept up to date any more.

Kyleran on yours sincerely
'But there are many. You can play them entirely solo, and even offline. Also, you are wrong by default.'
Ikcin in response to yours sincerely debating whether or not single-player offline MMOs exist...
'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless.
It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.
It is just huge resource waste....'
Gdemami absolutely not being an armchair developer
Reporter: What's behind Blizzard success, and how do you make your gamers happy?
Blizzard Boss: Making gamers happy is not my concern, making money.. yes!
mmorpg junkie since 1999
Worst scam ever. Words have a meaning.
After so many years they have the courage to show a space crab walking on a flat and rigid surface and all those aliens with claws on their hind limbs and considering the size and weight of these animals by the images, notice that they are creatures that have evolved over millions and millions years to finally develop hind legs with extremely thin claws that look more like pocketknives that the real function is only to bring pain and suffering when the animal moves.
Artistic concept is not by far OK, all the creatures presented seem to copy / paste from some classic RPG book.
Even mobile games from 4 years ago have this kind of creature designed that way.
Stay firm, they are not scam the fan base to keep this project forever in the development phase.
I never talk about games, I've been here since the first few months, not only in the first days of this site, but since the first days of MMOs and about this game I only have one thing to say:
Enough is enough.
I hope the game will come out but I do not have my hopes high for it actually being finalized at all.
Thank you sir!
