Question for Vice about EM patch and future support

Fulghore · Post by **Fulghore** » Thu Dec 19, 2013 3:28 pm

Hi everybody!
im very new in the forum and in the game, and i can say: I LOVE IT!!
a very, very, very great job!!!.
I read the thread created by vice (great man!!:;)) about a possible new future sci-fi projects, in which he ask what kind of features it could have..this means LISTEN TO FAN!
i also saw the new sw3d'game AA..all is very good but...
what about Evochron Mercenary?? its not a new game, i know but...
Vice, what's your future plan about this spectacular game? Do you think to support it anymore with some corrective patch and new content?

i ask u this because i think that EM is just a great game that could be a real master piece only implementing some features without making a completly new sci-fi game!

this is obviously my opinion and i dont know if this argument has already been discussed on the forum (if so i apologize).
i thank u again for the great job u maded and hope to play EM for a long long time!!

Hello, you will see above that I edited (erased) two of the three auto placed Edit notes above. Every time you edit and re-edit a post, the system adds a new edit note. You should remove these to keep posts as clean as possible. All you have to do is erase any "EDITED NOTES" you see and the system will put one back when you exit as it will do for mine when I exit this post.

No need to be sorry.

You should have seen me in the beginning LOL!
This forum was the first I ever joined. Did I have a lot to learn or what!;)

Current plans are still the same as I've answered previously. EM 2.X will likely be it for a while, I plan to continue to support it with patches/updates at this point. A lot depends on whether it continues to sell or not and the level of interest there is in it. As mentioned in the design questions thread, a new game in the series may be a possibility in the future, but it would still be quite a while away.

Lol. Well, one thing I realized recently, I've been working on EM for nearly 5 years now... half a decade! Wow, times flies, lol.

That is truly Amazing.

And the level of hard work, dedication and how you listen
to players is nothing but Amazing.

I remember when I bought Legends and only a week or so after,
you launched EM. I bought it right away since I was so hooked
already. My wife haven't seen me since!!!!!! (Lost in Space):P

Merry X-Mas Vice. Enjoy the holidays with your wife and kids
and do log on for some fun if you have the time.

30 secs of the demo was all i needed to hit the 'buy' - and honestly I think my mind was made up watching some of the videos people had posted.

Very amazing game... scored my first 'kill' on an npc last night.. pitched up, lit the can for a few, ids off..spun 180 and tracked him with guns blarring; took it right in the belly as he pulled up to try to make another pass at me (we had been going back and forth several times already) lol

Havent been that thrilled with a kill in a game in a very long time

Thanks for creating such a great universe to play in.

thank u so much for your answer!
so for now im very happy for your continuos updates to EM 2.x..
i hope u decide to implement some interesting feature like more sized planet and ground updates (like walking on foot with weapons, more cities, farm, colonization and clan war or something like this) directly on EM or in a new game.
thank u again for your work!!
