    I'm getting into it more and more myself.

    It's a beautiful game. The lighting is fantastic, and the glare is so realistic it gets annoying. And the really have got the weightlessness done really well.

    The game play itself though is still lacking something imho. Methinks it's nothing more than a tech demo really from them, i.e. put out a game, have some commercial success with it, and license the engine on the back of the publicity.

    Looks nice, but its not a great game tbh.


    Its like a little level from a bigger game that someone tried to make a game out of.

    Im thinking of the greater implications though: I want a Gundam Mod. Like: Now.

    Just read this on the wire:
    Shattered Horizon TM "Moonrise" Content Pack Announced

    Free content pack will double the number of levels in the game

    HELSINKI, FINLAND – NOVEMBER 16, 2009 – Futuremark® Games Studio today revealed plans for the first content pack for Shattered Horizon™, their PC exclusive multiplayer first-person shooter. The "Moonrise" pack, which will be free to all players, will include four new levels effectively doubling the number of levels in the game.
    http://www.shatteredhorizon.com/

    In Shattered Horizon, a catastrophic explosion on the Moon has filled near-Earth space with billions of tons of rocky debris. Teams of players fight in zero gravity to control the limited supplies that mean the difference between survival and death in the cold of space. The Moonrise content pack includes four new levels set around the shattered Moon, taking the fight deeper into space and showing a new side to the conflict.

    Although a release date for the Moonrise pack has not been announced, players who pre-ordered Shattered Horizon will be invited to start play-testing the new levels this week.

    "Selected players will help us test the new Moonrise levels from a very early stage," said Antti Summala, lead designer. "Level design for zero gravity combat is a big challenge and we are looking forward to having real players help us create new experiences that cannot be found in other FPS games."

    Azza, I tried sending you the game. I have to add you as a friend to do it but it says user Azza doesn't exist. Have you set up a community profile separate from your main account name? You have to do that to have friends I think.

    Strange, I was able to find\add you through the boards group but when I search for your name on the Add Friend function, it can't find you. Oh well.

    Thanks Wayne!

    Played for a while last night - it didn't run as well as I'd hope (I've a Q6700, 4GB ram and a GTX 260) - shadows are very pixelly. The earth looks awesome though!
