I do have to agree with you, progress has been slow for freeorion. They are still in the v0.3.something. I know they publish incremental builds once in a while though (check here: http://www.freeorion.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4208) Regarding Supremacy it seems that Mike is strongly commited to go a head with it. He's going to Vegas for the StarTrek conference and all. Aphelion I don't know, I haven't seen a lot of action latelly. In the near future I'll check with both Mike and Brad to see what's their status. yes .. I do have to agree with you, progress has been slow for freeorion. They are still in the v0.3.something.

there is more hope in a moo4 than freeorion sadly.

I was on vacation from work and looking for something to pass the time with a few of my online friends. Hi,

Given that this project has been goin on for like 6 years now, and they are still in alpha, I tend to doubt there will be massive progress anytime soon. It has some nice bits in it, but it seems to me like a long ways to go before its really playable. Maybe another 6 years? “FreeOrion is definitely a project to take seriously and to watch closelly in the near future.”
