It is allowed 2 ask what you working next on?

I want suggest something but after i read MainPage Upcoming Features, in this Game is everything inside i want. Okay maybe some REALLY Big Ships. And some more Electronic Warfare like Tracktor Beams ECM Jammer etc.

Do you think about Multiplayer? or Steam release?

Multiplayer has been brought up a few times, There won't be any multiplayer and the reason is that multiplayer and singleplayer experiences are fundamentally different, so it would tons of work to do it right and the MP/SP would end up being different games anyway. That and singleplayer isn't even near completion right now, personally i'd rather us get a nice complete campaign mode before multiplayer is ever even considered. Though coop might be fun :P.

Steam only publishes released games, this is at .50 alpha so its not really up to that point yet and even then steam likes to say "we already have many similar games to yours, you need to prove this can sell/is different" so its unknown whether they will let starfarer in or not.

Just as a heads up, I do not think this is entirely true.  Endless Space is still in Alpha but you can pre-order it on Steam and play it.

That could be the 5 seconds they need to manouvre just close enough to the enemy before they explode!  :D

This looks really, really cool.

It took me three run-throughs of that third segment to understand what was happening, haha.

Then I was look: HOLY CRAP LOOK AT THE FLAMES ON THAT ONSLAUGHT.

:O

Do want. This is what I was hoping was next.  :D  Anyone excited for the omen? Man this is cool. I wish we had a list of devices and how many of them were done. I assume this patch will take some time since it's a huge deep dark change to so many engine components.

Also flares look amazing.

This is awesome. :D  I am geeking out, haha.

That wasn't the infernium thingy, that was the "Burn Drive" system.  :D

QUESTION!

Will these systems be able to be disabled?
Can they be enhanced with hull mods?
PLEASE can the Hound get the burn drive? (I'm laughing just thinking about it.)
