There will be 3 turns per year. We found that number to be the sweet spot, as 2 are too few and 4 are too many!

There will be difficulty levels for both modes, yes.

Couple of questions? What will be the price of the game? Any idea?

All real astronaut names? Will there be photos of them?

With the game start date I guess the X planes will be included? Could you recruit chuck yeager to NASA?

I have no idea, but I'll point Iain to this thread so that he can chime in sometime during the week.

We won't be using real astronaut names but... stay tuned! We'll be announcing something even better soon [;)]

Yes, the X-15 is included, but we don't have plans at the moment to provide Yeager as a selectable astronaut.

Cheers,

Look forward to hearing what that will be!



IainMcNeil -> RE: Couple of quick questions (6/17/2013 3:51:24 PM)

We haven't agreed the pricing yet so we'll let you know once that is all set.



RLA -> RE: Couple of quick questions (6/21/2013 6:22:45 AM)

Well, the X-15 become in-game, but only for sub-orbital trips, or maybe also even for orbital flights? And comes something like the X-20 Dyna-soar?

The X-15 in the game is only meant to be used for sub-orbital trips. We're not planning to include the Dyna-soar at the moment, but we will evaluate the possibility of adding it in an update.

Hello lyonsajh,

We're getting closer to the beta, yes. Stay tuned!

Cheers,



lyonsajh -> RE: Couple of quick questions (6/22/2013 10:48:42 PM)

Any new screenshots ;-p

How much we can thank you and the rest of the team? [:)]

Anyway, can you give a bit more information now about the Russian parts who going be used? And would the moon race have more choices then the traditional Apollo landing? (Something like BARIS, where you can choice what for type you will do for a moon landing)

Sure! Two more of the X-15. We're working on the animations for this mission at the moment [:)]

Buy a copy (or two!) of SPM once it gets released so that we can continue working on games related to space exploration [:)]

Part I will feature several russian probes, such as Venera and Luna. Take a look around in the forums, I recall posting a few screenshots from russian probes.

Regarding the Moon landings, you'll be able to choose different approaches: LOR, EOR and Direct Ascent. You'll also be able to make flybys around the Moon using a modified version of the Gemini spacecraft.

Cheers,



lyonsajh -> RE: Couple of quick questions (6/27/2013 10:01:30 PM)

Thanks for screenshots ! Looking good

Yes, I seen the screenshots of them. Its very awesome already, and I can't wait to the release of BASPM.

But by the Gemini, become it only moon fly-by mission what it can max, or can it also be used for the orbital and lunar landing mission (Like the Gemini-Centaur plan)?

We have provided options for both. There's a "Circumlunar reconnaissance mission" program, which uses a Gemini in order to perform a flyby around the Moon, and also there's a "Direct Ascent", which lands a modified Gemini in the surface of the Moon.

Cheers,

Wow - this game is getting better and better



kokubokan25 -> RE: Couple of quick questions (6/30/2013 9:21:25 PM)

Fiuuuuu, waiting gets tough.



Nikolai -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/1/2013 12:06:02 AM)

I can't describe how excited I am about this. I have a soft spot for Gemini, and have long wondered what some of the lunar Gemini plans might have yielded. This is amazing work. Even as greedy as I am to get my hands on this, though, I'll try to encourage you to take your time and get this right. :)



jjknap -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/2/2013 12:34:02 AM)

[&o]Gemini + Moon Landing = Cool!

Any news on the above?



czert2 -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/20/2013 8:10:21 PM)

what are resons to not use real names ? licence ? well original baris tried to have them all, but -mainly for russians - there were to many mistakes to booth misspeling and simply lack of knowlenege of real names. 



Nacho84 -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/21/2013 2:53:31 PM)

Hello lyonsajh and czert2,

I've exchanged a couple of e-mails with the guys from Slitherine last night and they told me that the conference went really well! In the next couple of days they will start posting the announcements that have been made at Historicon and all your questions will have an answer.

Have a nice weekend!

Cheers,



lyonsajh -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/21/2013 3:42:48 PM)

Look forward to it!



jjknap -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/21/2013 6:50:46 PM)

Blind Sniper -> RE: Couple of quick questions (7/22/2013 1:18:40 PM)
