Hello all, Liam here

I've heard about new graphics coming to this game, all information I have is that they are 1/3 in the process of making and that is being made by someone in Los Angeles, California. Also they are (99.9%) they are making:

-New 3D Graphics
-New Game-rooms and layouts
-New Vehicles
-New Infrastructure's/Buildings
-New Map design's EG. new replicators ETC.

Apart from this info it's about all I know...

If anyone could out up a date on finish time then please let me know...

Thanks,
Liam

Yeah umm 3d no new units no new buildings no new replicators I'm not sure and Game room probably. Where did u get this info? I've been talking directly to Scott and none of that is right. Also the dude working on it is a designer of star wars battlefront, Lego starwars, and some other games too!

Trine and Liam, and other others who are wondering, here's what Scott has in-store for us.

1. Swear detection
2. App update- 4.0 Apple update
3. App update- 3D Graphics

Scott will most likely (and hopefully) have swear detection within the next couple of weeks. There is no date set for the other two updates, and no order that I know of for any other updates to follow.

For more information on the 4.0 update, go to the topic called iPhone OS 4.0 in the Multiplayer Discussion forum.

The graphics will be 3D (not pop out of your screen 3D), and will really change this game. When this happens, I don't think we'll have to worry about "Armada." Here's the status for that: The graphics are done, but need to be implementd into the game. Yes the guy is based off of LA, and is the graphics designer of all the games galm mentioned. He is also the same designer of the current graphics of this game.

As for the other four things Liam mentioned, there is no saying. They may happen eventually, but it is way too far off to even mention them. Clan stuff will come before those other things mentioned.

Answer your questions?

They are rendered from 3D models, but they won't be 3D models in the game.

EDIT: thanks for the write up Nate :)

I just don't like 3 dimensional units and structures. I like how scott is pre rendering from 3d models but they wont be 3d in game

I think 3D would be awesome if thas all it was no zoom or other features. I don't see anything bad with that.

Please keep 2D, I don't like StarFront cuz it's harder to make formations and attack with that view.

But you can make the resolutions higher for the retina display.
make the unit models sharper perhaps. make the levels look crisper perhaps.
