MM Chat on #se4

[Fyron]

Next Tuesday, November 4th, at 2 PM PST (5 PM EST, 10 PM GMT), #se4 will be hosting a chat with Malfador Machinations as special guest speaker. Topics will naturally cover MM titles such as Space Empires IV, Dungeon Odyssey, Starfury, and Space Empires V.

#se4 is located on the Gamesnet IRC server. For information on how to connect, check out the #se4 Web Site, which has a connection guide.

If you will be unable to make it, but still have questions for Malfador, please post them here, and we can compile a list of them to ask during the chat.

Hope to see you there!

P.S: If a moderator wants to sticky this for a bit...

Ask about progress on SE5!
How far along into development is it?
Is there a projected release date?
Is it too late to become a beta tester? *sweet smile*

Not sure if I can make it. I'm sure someone will save the chat log.

The only questions I have was if MM was going to have any more updates to Dungeon Odyssey. I think it was asked in the Last chat if he was going to release another patch. His reply was that there wasn't any more bugs that have been reported.

What I'm asking is more of an upgrade to the game. Quite a few people, myself included, have posted and sent long list of changes that would make the game better, or maybe another module?

I guess I was always hoping he would do some of those ideas and upgrade the game like he was doing for SE4.

The other question is for Space Fury, and if the movement will ever get changed to make it 3D or at least it changed so it doesn't seem like I'm driving a car. I know others have problems with this also.

This wasn't brought up at all in the Last chat. Maybe it's not that important, but I would like to know anyways.

If someone can bring these up to him, and save the chat log, that would be awesome. Thanks!

well, about damn time.

Wasn't the 2d vs. 3d issue discussed Last time? I thought it was? Either way, I am fairly certain that MM plans on keeping the game on a 2D plane, and not implementing 3D movement. It can still be asked though.
