On a related note at MWNY I talked to a certain unnamed Ambrosia employee and I said something like EV3 dosen't even have a title yet and they said "yes it does, EV3:Nova" **

At the end of April I posted a messege asking when any new plug-ins, like Star Trek, Nova etc. gonna be out. And I think Pipeline said that the annauncement would be made in 4 weeks or so. Anyway what's the big deal? May be you guys are having fun reading all this rumors about EV3 being Nova, but I don't really care. All I want a good game/great plug-in(?, whatever). I think the ordinary players want the same thing too. What's the big deal if EV3 is Nova,or EV3 and Nova a absolutely different thins, or....whatever. All I would like to know is when ANY of them gonna be out. As well as would like to know when any other big TC gonna be out. Last year we had GS,New Horizons, Empire2 etc. It's August now and what do we have this year-Empire3 (that's it!!!!!). Ofcourse we've got EVO1.0.2, but still it's EVO with good improved engine. There is no movement in the EV society, just look on the board. What new messeges do we have here? Aha.., EV/O best ships, best weapons poll-haven't you seen that like, say 3000 times. OK next, here we go. so guys want a walk through the plug-ins step by step-where is the old spirit of EV player. Nevermind, next. Some guy ask plug-in developer to make ship with 100 guns slots and 10000 shils, saying it would be cool to fight in that kind of a ship-yeah, right. And here we have multythreads about EV3 and Nova, where everybody's saying "you don't know jack but I do". Whatever. I'm just frustrated today. That's probably it. Is it?
------------------
Frankly I'm far more interested in the new engine as opposed to the new scenario. It's already proven that plugin developers can outdo Ambrosia when it comes to plot and story... it's not that Ambrosia sucks in this aspect, because they do a great job,it's just that others are better.

Opinion should not be passed off as fact. Many would disagree with you enthusiastically, and the argument is pointless in any event.

No personal offense to anyone affiliated with Ambrosia, Andrew, but I have seen plugs with better graphics. (Magma, for example) But from what you've posted of EV3, it's fantastic.

I'm sure you've seen plugs with better graphics; consider that EVO has been out for several years. It's only a matter of time before someone comes up with some really cool stuff (as Magma is).
No offense taken; but just wait until you see EV3

Like everyone else, patiently waiting... I don't suppose there's anyway you could use snapz pro on a higher-end G4 and show us about 15 seconds of game play? For the engine and weapon glows?
Hey, ShadeofBlue, what do you remember about me? and andrew, I was right ,you were bluffing, you said it was going alpha in about a month on a differant board.

Perhaps you should realize that alpha isn't exactly a major announcement. I was not bluffing, and alas, you are not right.
I find it really funny how Andrew Welsh and I are the only people who believe EV3 isn't Nova......
UE Crusader, Why do you find it funny?
Originally posted by UE Crusader: **I find it really funny how Andrew Welsh and I are the only people who believe EV3 isn't Nova...... **
He is not Andrew Welsh! It's Welch. And I know that the Nova plug that is going to be released by ASW (supposedly) also has nothing to do with EV3.
It is funny that all these people believe all the lies and rumours. It is all a joke...
I just ahave to say that the engine looks absolutely stunning in it's curent state. Great job to Andrew and all others who are working on EV 3! (You are one person working on it, aren't you, Andrew?)

Matt Burch is the one working on it... Andrew's just the president of the company... right?

We are all working on EV3 (Matt, myself, and a number of other key EV3 team members). None of our titles are done in a vacuum.
'soem cool stuff is coming' indeed... you should see what this guy has got done on his plug, 'cold blood'... access from ev links page..
