Long ago i remember playing the infinity combat prototype. It was a kind of team deathmatch affair in space. The prototype featured various ship types fighters and carriers i believe. The best thing for me about this prototype was the fact that fighters could dock within the carriers.
Heres some old footage, Please remember this likely has no connection now with infinity battlescape. But it may give us an idea of how the capital ships will work and hopefully fills some backers with confidence that i-novae can pull capital ships off.
I never managed to play much on the ICP, but it was all kinds of fun High speed jousting and dogfighting with other fighters… taking down capitals… progression through ships…
For such a simple prototype, it was just as good (if not better) than a lot of other fully-fledged release titles!
Yea i agree. The prototype wasnt polished and some of the assets were incomplete but the game was quite stable and very playable. If they can replicate the fun of the combat from the prototype within the battlescape then its going to be amazing.
'twas indeed a great way to kill some time. Simple and easy to pick up, big arena feel to it, and players COULD coordinate if they wanted to, usually to great effect.
