Michael Juliano Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Be sure to make an announcement if you plan to go for a crowdfunding campaign. :) A Kickstarter is planned for sometime in Feb, yes. I'll certainly give a shout when it goes live. Thank you in advance for your support...
SlapStik Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 This looks very interesting as I too am a space junky, for me it is the X Universe. I'm looking forward to future development and plan on participating in the Kickstarter! SlapStik TM Warthog #1547, TM TPR Pedals, TM MFD pack & TIR4

falcon_120 Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Incredible stuff,seems a fresh new idea or concept in a time where innovation is difficult to say the least.Keep on and don't give up.Though for a project like this I see really neccesary to get quick financial support to set a bigger work team.I'm afraid this kind of complex simulations like for example seven-g taken by just one man is to much,because time is a very limited resource doesn't matter how capable the person is,and more than 5-6 years of development makes the project to be born already old. Anyway, the best of lucks to you and your wonderful project.

Anyway, the best of lucks to you and your wonderful project. Exactly the reason for the Kickstarter in February. Rogue System is at a point where I have a lot of code that needs art assets to support it. If I work on the art then the rest of the code doesn't get done. If I do the code then I have no art. I now need a team to support me, and to have it done in a proper development cycle we have to be able to work on it full time. The only way to do that is with enough funds to support the team, whatever size it is... Thanks for the kind words...
nemises Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 from FB: Rogue System FINALLY! Kickstarter approved the project. I'm aiming for a midnight launch, which is 11 hours from now. I'd do it now, but I want to make some last minute adjustments. I'll give a shout when it's live... cant wait to see the campaign, really hope this succeeds...will be pleging

jimcarrel Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Did anyone completely understand the process for getting to test alpha and beta releases? >>Reward Upgrades: I realize that some people may only be interested in receiving the Core Module and early testing. If this is the case, please select either the $20 or $25 reward, and then increase your pledge by adding one (1) of the following amounts: Open Beta Testing: $10 Closed and Open Beta Testing: $20 Alpha and All Beta Testing: $40 So, if you wanted the Core and all testing for it you'd select the $20 (or $25 if you wanted the rank increase) but you'd make your pledge amount $60. If the Kickstarter is successful we'll send out a survey to make sure you want the additional funds applied in this manner.<< You can't add the $40 on the 1st page, they are null and void after your first pledge. When you go to manage your pledge, you can type in a new amount at the top , but, it specifically states that doing so does not add to your original amount. If you pick another amount further down, you end up "changing" pledge amount, not "adding to". In order to gain testing ability, directions say to "add to" the original pledge. It seems unobtainable, the "pledge for testing" directions. Win 10 64 bit Intel I-7 7700K 32GB Ram Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 6gig
Yurgon Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 A Kickstarter is planned for sometime in Feb, yes. I'll certainly give a shout when it goes live. Huh, where's the shout? :music_whistling: Anyways, I just backed the project. We haven't even reached 1% yet, so come on, guys and gals, do us a favor and throw your money towards it! :) With more than a month to go, we can surely do it!
cichlidfan Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Remember, your money will be worth less by the time it is released, so you are actually getting a discount! :D ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero, i7-6700K, Noctua NH-D14 Cooler, Crucial 32GB DDR4 2133, Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 256GB, Samsung EVO 250GB & 500GB SSD, 2TB Caviar Black, Zotac GTX 1080 AMP!

SHOUT! ;) I was actually going to, but jimcarrel beat me to it, so I moved on to other forums to continue spreading the word... Jim, I made a post over at SimHQ about how to add the upgrades, and I re-worded the instructions to make it a bit clearer. To explain here though, if you want the $20 reward, but want to add Open Beta testing, which is $10, you'd select the $20 reward but then would manually change the pledge amount to $30... Thanks for all the support and kind words everyone! I really do appreciate it greatly! Thanks...
Ali Fish Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 i wonder if total biscuit would be interested in rogue system ? he could be a big help to RSys if he was. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
nemises Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Might have better luck with GiantBomb ... him and his cronies seem to have a penchant for hardcore sims
jimcarrel Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 I just added 40 to my 20. Slowly more backers are getting in. Hope it snowballs in a couple of days! Win 10 64 bit Intel I-7 7700K 32GB Ram Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 6gig
Michael Juliano Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Lots of successful campaigns start off rather slowly. RogSys is kind of starting off on the back foot anyway because I just didn't have the people to put together I bunch of presentation media to get massive hype going. I do believe it will steadily increase for the next few days, taper off, and then pick up again towards the middle to end. That's typically the pattern. That's my HOPE anyway ;) Will just have to ride it out... Edited February 17, 2013 by Michael Juliano
leafer Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Michael, yea, yeah just shut up and take my money! Take it. Take all of it! ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
LordLobs Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 i wonder if total biscuit would be interested in rogue system ? he could be a big help to RSys if he was. I Twitted him about this game, but I don't know if he read it at all. But I think he would be interested since he always complains about the lack of proper space games like the X-Wing/Tie-Fighter series... maybe the dev should try to contact him :P

Michael Juliano Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Yeah! Great, thanks. I'll give him a shout and see if it gets us anywhere...
LordLobs Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Great, thanks. I'll give him a shout and see if it gets us anywhere... You're welcome! He also has an email address for PR stuff on his Youtube channel description if you wanna try that too: http://www.youtube.com/totalhalibut (note: his main Youtube channel is "TotalHALIBUT", not "TotalBISCUIT")
