Das Projekt sieht interessant aus. Ich befürchte jedoch, die Steuerung wird genauso schwammig und ungenau wie bei Descent Underground. In meinen Augen vermögen nur die Entwickler von Descent und Overload sowas richtig hinzubekommen.
Auch wenn es ein Prototyp ist, die Ungenauigkeit ist mir beim Steuern sofort aufgefallen. Ich habe eine Maus + Tastatur benutzt. Jede Richtungsänderung war immer um eine Wenigkeit zu heftig/stark - ob nun beim Neigen nach links oder rechts oder oben und unten. Das nervt ungemein.

The movement issues in the initial prototype build (Prototype 001) were definitely anticipated/expected.

There have been a significant number of follow-up bugfix builds, which have addressed the movement, mouse and joystick problems.

These builds have been posted on the Ascentroid Discord under the #downloads channel:
discord.gg/pktfw78

A number of testers have approved of the movement changes and have confirmed it no longer behaves like Descent Underground, and I've been told it feels like Descent 1 & 2 now.

Furthermore, some Overload players communicated a desire for faster ship rotation; so the variables to edit ship rotation are (temporarily) available on the "Game" settings screen (right panel). They've been exposed so players can fiddle around during testing.

If you're still having issues with joystick deadzone in these latest builds, I'd love to hear about it. Best place to reach me is on the Ascentroid Discord.

I am working on more bugfixes and some enhancements before posting a more official download (Prototype 002) on https://ascentroid.com and making announcements about it (forums, other Discord servers, etc).

I wanted to reply here in case anyone is interested in trying out the bugfix build increments that are available on Discord.

Thanks! Take care!

Davon abgesehen, dass ich die D2-Grafik nicht grade liebe und hoffe das wir sich ändern, sieht der Spielablauf gut aus und es gibt sogar schon einen Rückspielgel. Sieht so aus als müsste man auf Fertigstellung hoffen. Zumal er ja wohl auch besonderen Augenmerk auf den Netcode legt.

Nachtrag:
Das letzte Video auf twitch zeigt allerdings schon gute Grafik, die vielversprechend aussieht... bin echt mal gespannt und bin in der discord Gruppe - mit ner Menge OVL-Spiler und somit vielen alten D3ern usw

Ascentroids gameplay is fantastic and it feels a lot like that of Descent 2 with 3dfx Glide mode.
it's like what D3 should of been with no oversensitive controls, Ascentoid is by far the best new-gen 6DoF I ever tested and played.

Currently I am one of the main game play testers with Verran, tonight we will test again and I see this game being a very good one if not the best new gen-6DoF game as for DU..sighs lol, this game is miles better than that, if feels very like D2 for me and as a Descent/Freesapce collector I am definitely adding this one to my collection Cool

Mein Deutch ist nicht so gut aber Ascentroid ist viel malen besser wiel andern 6DoF Spiele.

See, my German; it sucks xD

Heute mal die neue Version angeschmissen und kann nur sagen, DAS FLIEGT SICH TOLL. Die Einstellung der Steuerung ist easy, wiem an es von Descent + OVL gewohnt ist.

Lohnt sich auf jeden Fall das zu testen.
