I don't know why I'm hearing absolutely nothing about this game outside of PC gamer or IGN. Maybe its because iron clad hasn't posted enough videos and info about the game. From what I've played so far though(I'm in beta 3)the game seems to be amazing and a true revolutionary step toward RTS games. It's practically a perfect mixture of gameplay elements of TBS(Galactic civilization, civ, etc)and RTS games.(Supcom, etc)

Anyone else excited for this game or is currently in the beta?

I'm extremely excited for this game, but I see what you're saying. The only hype I've heard about it has been from PC Gamer.

Yeah...I'm hyped, my second most wanted strategy game. Still..it's 4x game and those aren't exacly getting much hype unless they're called "Master of Orion".It will most likely be amazing game ,but not a 1+ millions selling one (altough I do think it will sell very well, just like GC2 did)

It's shaping out to be a fantastic RTS game. I'm currently in the beta and apart from some of the necessary tweaks to the AI, the game plays really well. I have yet to play a MP game so i cannot comment on this aspect of the game.

I'm glad that they pushed the release date to february, which will give them plenty of time to polish the game.

I've been playing the Beta since August and can't wait for Feb. 4. It's a game I can see myself playing for an awefully long time and losing many nights of sleep. As for hype, it will come as soon as people see the reviews and the 4X community realizes that there is a new game out to entice them.

It's a niche game. It isn't going to be mainstream popular, like COD4, Half life OB, Crysis etc etc.
