Vi har mottatt en pressemelding og noen screens fra Psychosys, som er på utkikk etter en internasjonal strategisk partner for lisensiering av det neste kapittelet i Battle Isle serien.

Spillet er allerede ute i Nord Amerika og det ser jo temmelig fett ut. Om vi får se det spennede MMO-space strategy spillet her hjemme, er usikkert. Men har er litt bilder og info fra hva som kan være i vente.

Features:

- Featuring 3D accelerated graphics using PaleStar's proprietary Medusa engine!
- Command over 18 unique spacecraft and installations from the three warring factions!
- Dynamic stereo rendered environmental sound, ranging from the crackling hum of alien particle beams splitting 5-kilometer capital ships in half to the frantic radio distress calls from allied ships on the verge of destruction!
- Massive planets, asteroid fields, orbiting moons, brilliant stars, wormholes, and black holes rendered in beautiful detail!
- Real time particle systems showing ship damage, torpedo impacts, nebulas and various other gorgeous effects will startle the senses!
- Players subscribe and participate in massively multiplayer world shattering campaigns, receive dynamic content updates of new ship types, new races, technology, and strategies that will make the game virtually replayable.
- Global Ranking boards keep an active career report on players: tracking ranks, achievements, kills, campaign wins and a host of other statistics and accolades, such as Merit badges, medals and commendations. Subscribing members only!
- Team play capability supporting anywhere from 1 on 1 skirmishes to an all out 200-player grand scale war with a full host of capital ships, frigates, interceptors, multi-atmospheric bomber squadrons, orbiting battle platforms, stealth craft, marines boarding ships and assaulting planets. Zero- G commando units and over 25 unique weapons systems with each faction having its own specialized weapons!
- Use the intuitive command system to send orders to subordinates, allowing player-to-player communications with a click of the mouse. View your ship status from the Engineering window, setting repair priorities and viewing the state of ship's systems and weapons!
- The game play supports a variety of skill levels. New players will be commissioned on a smaller, less complicated craft learning how to handle basic tasks and eventually gaining prestige and rank to take on more responsibility and command!
- Various victory conditions in different scenarios will challenge even the most skilled players allowing a multitude of strategies and attacks. Intuitive control allows players to set waypoints, pre-plot hyperspace travel routes, and move fluidly through the universe!
- The Fog of War requires stealth and scouting to know the enemy's location and win the battle. Spies can raid enemy installations and gather valuable intelligence on fleet locations and technology. Spy drones can be attached to enemy ships to intercept valuable enemy communications!
- Over 49 types of versatile starship enhancements, ensuring each player becomes a vital team-member!
