Infinity: Battlescape - long-range torpedo cruiser going into battle

Saved up credits and took out the cruiser with torpedo platforms and extra torpedoes (these have a 100km range) for a defense mission. I could probably fire them for effect from greater distance, but that wouldn't have been as fun. ;)

This just reminds me of Battlestar Galactica Online, except with less gameplay options or ship options and AI to fill out the game but the graphics and combat are much better.

@Azuri e this game was supposed to be a cinematic space experience game according to the trailer 7 years ago, not a tactical hud space fart rocket colouring book.

[@Tuxfanturnip]

​@@ummerfarooq5383 they wanted to make a vast galaxy ultimate sandbox go anywhere do anything space game like everyone else, but they couldn't get anywhere near the funding so they're making this game to help develop the engine further. At least they're raising money starting with solid combat gameplay instead of a glorified 3D model viewer.

@@Tuxfanturnip that trailer that came out way back, was good enough as a game. Now it's just Infinity Hudscape: The Search For The Next Reticle. Come on, observe that meme of Ubisoft potentially designing Elden Ring.

Damning with faint praise: The blue explosions were pretty.

[@AbiNubli]

In reality war in orbit is dangerous for everyone there. Imagine the countless wreckages that orbits and hit everyone at supersonic speed. You don't need no missile

[@TheArtikae]

Ah, yes. Supersonic. Technically correct, but kind of like comparing a supersonic jet to a man on horseback.

[@hnhgnjj6078]

Those wreck aren’t altering course nor can the be guided to a target.

[@Tehn00bA]

In reality battles in space are unfeasable because its hard af to hit anything with difference of speed of 10000mph. Thats why the Mutual Assured Destruction philosophy still works: because intercepting stuff on low orbit is hard. Not to mention reducing too much orbit speed may put you in reentry. Also any fragments from explosions would not slow down because of the vacuum, meaning explosions are extra dangerous.

Seams interesting, but , is this a "Wolrd Of Warships" in space? Where it's fun in the first 5 level, then, you need luck to survive and win ? At least, i like the sound, the ship design, the "neon" colors. If there is a story with a good writing, i probably try it ! I will keep a eye on it...

I say it would be more immersive if missiles didn't produce trail in space :D

[@raspberrybitch4299]

I dont see why they couldn't release a smoke trail as a tracer. Sure, itd spread out until it dissipated, but it'd be useful to visually confirm the missile went the right way once you fired it in case of emergency. Like have bullets with tracers.

[@ziggyz8345]

some crude engine sources might produce water vapor and as it touches space it freezes instantly and all the super small particulates of the liquid are visible given if theres a light source on it there could be a faint " smoke " trail

[@keamu8580]

All my space missiles periodically release battery-powered beacons that slowly dispense smoke so I can tell where my missiles flew.

hi thanx for video.I know i buy the Infinity Battlescape.I see much video is list server for going to battle.Is posible changed and create maps planete ,is equals and i know is much realistic.Beacouse i dont like game multiserver ,multy lobby thanx :-)

[@shaamaan]

I'm not sure I understand your question, but I'll try to answer - no, it's not possible to create your own maps, and I don't think it'll be possible. The final version of the game should support single-player (offline) mode, but currently it's online-only.

[@omaracevedo4784]

Graphics look good but I was trying to figure out what he was shooting at. Are all the enemy combat fights like that?

[@wiktorhood8475]

Didn't play that game but my guess is the enemey were engaged in a close dogfight combat that looked preety static from 100kms away

[@rykehuss3435]

Looks refreshing like this. Though personally I would love to take this much further. To thousands of km's, way beyond visual range. Make space fights realistic. It should resemble more like submarine fights, not pew pew dog fights. Railguns and hyper-velocity missiles. Emphasis on reading your instruments, knowing your ship and knowing your enemy, not watching pretty sparks fly in space. Could even give the ships some supa cameras so once you get decent enough radar lock you can zoom in on the ship, get a visual cam feed in one corner of the screen. That way you get to also enjoy seeing your enemies blow up.

[@williamturner7131]

@@rykehuss3435 To be fair, railguns would be exclusively close to midrange. They can accelerate to ridiculous speeds, sure, but that course and that speed is static once it leaves the barrel. Missiles and torpedoes would be the way to go And if some sort of warp drive was developed that allowed for fast recharge and near instantaneous travel across a relatively short distance, then fighters/bombers too.

[@rykehuss3435]

@@williamturner7131 Mid range is fine. If the time to hit is like 3-4 seconds, thats fast enough to hit big spaceships, theyre not gonna be maneuvering out of the way in that time. And since the projectiles are basically free, you can just keep blasting with the rail guns, doesnt matter if you miss most of the shots.

[@williamturner7131]

@@rykehuss3435 Tis true Could be also be nice to have a sort of mechanic like World of Warships Where you can just passively fire large salvoes of railguns [and wait for them to cooldown and charge their capacitors] to create what's effectively a "slowly" moving field of "mines" Not mines, ofc, but if you're inside these fields fired with rough guesstimation even at twenty times the normal effective range (40-80s flight time away) then you'd get shredded I'm used to this style of gameplay just because of World of Warships; launching torpedoes is very literally like this, dropping a few racks of dumbfired torpedoes and it taking up to 90 seconds for them to hit a target at the edge of their range
