Rebel Galaxy - General Discussion

I've been following this game for just about 2 weeks now, and put it on my Steam Wish List, but I still have a few questions.

1.  Is the release date still for sometime in 2015?

2.  Are there any more beta tests scheduled?

3.  Any beta keys available?

4.  Is there an NDA in place, and if not, any testers willing to discuss their experience with the game?

    I heard about this game from the Runic reveal article about Hob (which looks amazing). I am interested in this too, though not as much, especially after it sounded like the guys who left Runic ripped a bunch of the design stuff with them.

    Article at Polygon.


    will still check this out, as I though those guys had great ideas.

    Still waiting to hear any new news about the game.  Not even anything from their FB page.  I have to guess it is in a Closed Beta with an NDA, otherwise there would be some chatter.

    They posted on steam a few days ago they were close to being ready to release. I don't think there's been any more tests. I was in on the previous testing. It was a blast.

    PC launch is tomorrow - October 20, 2015!!!  This was quite unexpected.

    This looks interesting ... couple of questions if anyone can actually answer:

    1) Is there a single player campaign .. and is that good?

    2) How much RPG elements are there?

    3) How does combat feel? Is it more tactical, or more action oriented?

    May be i will follow it on steam a bit and see how the reviews shape up. (Or heck, i can just buy it because now i can return games on steam).

    it seems it has story missions but the story is nothing special. that's as far as i researched cause i lost interest afterwards. it seems to be a great game for those that like to role play though (Han Solo Style) but i rather do that in a multi player game. personal preferences. i assume it's gonna turn into another Steam hit if it is optimized.

    my top MMOs: UO,DAOC,WoW,GW2

    most of my posts are just my opinions they are not facts,it is the same for you too.

    yeah i saw that. In fact, i probably won't touch it if it is multi-player only. Now i am interested.

    I might look into this.  I've been on a bit of a single player game kick lately.

    They do have a serenity inspired ship. However, Firefly is totally NOT about space battles.

    Downloading it now, very excited!!!  Going to unlock the achievement "a Pirate's Life " and "Skull and Crossbones" really early on, I hope.

    That's the first thing I thought when I heard the music in the beginning. Looks interesting enough, may have to try this one.

    No movement through the Y axis. . . I think it could still be fun. . but less "free" feeling.

    For under $20 you really can't go wrong.  I didn't have much time to really dig in tonight, but I enjoyed the time I did play it.

    I agree on the price and I have found I almost only play indie games now, they are fresh at least.  Maybe I will give this one a shot.  It has decent reviews but mostly it sounds like it is enjoyable.

    Isn't it funny that the game discussed most positively here is a single player game?

    May be MMOs should be more like single player games.

    As gamers, we all want some social interaction in our games but then we realize just how poorly people act when they can hide behind an avatar on the screen.  I think our online experiences would change considerably if the west implemented a system like Korea has and every gamer used their social security number or some other means people could use to track them down in real life.

    Put a couple hours into this last night, feels a bit like Elite: Dangerous but more user friendly, plus there's an overarching main story to drive you towards accomplishing a specific goal.  I know some people don't like that, but I like having some kind of direction in the games I play rather than just wandering around and doing things without a specific purpose.

    wait .. says who?

    YOu do not speak for me. I don't want social interactions in my games.

    I have to admit, part of the draw is that it is single player.  After over a decade of playing MMOs, almost exclusively (other than Elder Scrolls and Fallout) I'm pretty darn tired of people.
