Cluckmoo, don’t complain that the new build isn’t out, this game is FREEWARE and he makes NO money from this game. Having an awesome freeware game that’s actually updated often is rare. BE HAPPY.

Tomaster shouldn’t be asking in the first place…
Get a life for Christ’s sake.
Can’t Data have some time AWAY from working on the next build?
Give him a damn break…

I don’t like the idea of this game bing freeware. It has to much of a potential to be a free ware game.
If this game is released for free for PC would make an XBLA release a waste because you will be like “should I buy CC for Xbox 360 or get it for free on PC”?
I recon when the game is finished it shoud cost around $15.
Please, look at CC. Everyone loves it so much. It will need to cost something for the final build.

I don’t think so, the guys that make this game have other jobs, this is kind of a part time kinda thing, unlike some games, which pay for people’s lives.

It’s been known for a long time that we will have to pay for the final version of Cortex Command. This is just a sort’ve beta of it.

Arg, I want the new build! Fortunately the coop will last me a while. I would pay twenty dollars for Cortex Command, just so the developers can be successful since this game deserves a medal of funk.

great pic, hope you guys got some great ideas whilst you were talking to the other people SERIOUSLY instead of just playying games for 4 days….actualy i think the games thing would be better, more ideas 🙂 I dont think this game will cost, maybe they might have some companies advertise in the game whilst it is loading e.g. nazi german loading index.ini and then at the side it says “got to germany for a great holiday deal, http://www.germanair.com” adverts to do with mods hmmm….probably not a good idea but please dont make us pay for it please!!!!!!!!!

Honestly, I do not want the final version to be freeware. It seems only fair, right? He’s been working his butt off to get all these different builds out, and to meet OUR demands, that if he doesn’t make money off of it, then it would have been a waste of time. So seriously, if you don’t want to pay a measly 15 bucks for an awesome game, then you can play the betas.

dont say that you want it to be money just yet moron!:P I dont want to have to spend money on the game until its done! Don’t give data any ideas.

I want the final version to cost 15-20$ because if Data make enough money off of his game perhaps he will make Cortex Command 2.
Of course I a thinking far far ahead but still.

I wouldn’t complain.
Data, networking: the greatest thing you can do for yourself. You’re not there to see to games, or find out new things, you’re there to network. Remember that.

The game is going to cost money! This project was started when? Around 2002, right? That’s roughly 5 years now! If five years + however much longer it takes before the final game comes out have been dumped into the game, it would be silly to release it as freeware. There are plenty of people willing to pay for the final game!
Along those lines, I think that the time when we’ll stop seeing beta builds is when everything but Campaign mode is finished. We will probably get a short teaser of Canpaign mode and then we will have to buy the game to see any more. Of course, there will probably be other things built in that we won’t see unless we buy it as well. Data! Give the final game unlockable secrets!
Also, if they can get some money off of this game, Cortex Command online might not be just a dream! If money can be gathered, good servers could be built! So buy the final game!

Though i agree with you because many people would by this including me I dont really want him to make it a buyware any way.
By the way it has been more than a week, where is he?
-
AquaGeneral -
# March 16th, 2007 at 3:21 pm
He will be back soon. Hopfully as we speak he is working on the new build.
I agree with sylverone, the games quality is to high to be free-ware. This might be the best indie game ever.
