Universal Combat?

Anyone grab the demo for Universal Combat yet? Is it any good? Looks vaguely like 1000 other sci-fi shooters, but it looks like it might be a good holdover until one of the big games comes out.

Haven''t tried the demo myself but hey, the game is only $19.99 so it''s not like you can really go wrong.

Check out this huge impressions thread.

I played battlecruiser 3k years ago and was massively underwhelmed. I can''t imagine this one is much better, given Derek Smart''s track record.

What? How can you say that!? Derek Smart is the greatest game designer ever! He said so himself!

*snicker*

You boys are clearly looking for a ride on the pain train.

The love for Derek goes back a long ways.

Sorta seems like DS is kinda a joke from what I see around the web.

Sort of like John Romero-promissing everything, delivering nothing.

Is this impression...umm, wrong?

Depends on who you ask.

You know, I''m stretching the rules a bit here but I don''t really feel like viewing yet another Derek Smart thread roll out with the usual content. I''ll just lock it up here.
