Im a huge fan of the 1995 version, but I cant judge until Ive played this one.

Early alpha already? They are moving fast!

I remember so clearly being told about this game before I played it.

One friend told me it was like Doom, except you could move in all direction!

I was sooo excited!

The game did not disappoint, it was a masterpiece and a big step forward in gaming.

yes it's on steam early alpha. it started like 1 month ago for subscribers (proving grounds $10 /month) .
I played with the devs yesterday, it was fun! The game is pretty crude right now, there are 2 game modes: free for all called anarchy and capture the core. you can do test flight and they just included practice vs AI bots.

It was awesome and a great game. I hope this new one pays respect to the old :)
they spend quit some time trying to get the same flight model of Descent 1. its a fast pace game totally arcade, that's what wingman said they wanted. they gonna have another contest for making a bot/drone. I missed the first one... lazy 3D artist I am

I was a huge fan of the older games, 1 and 2. Played them for hours at a time. I'll pick this one up, might be fun! I do kinda wish Wingman came back to CIG though, he brought a certain amount of fun with him.
