Topic: Questions about Descent: Underground?

*Sigh* I can't help it but I'm still feeling a bit worried.
There are just 4 days left on the Kickstarter campaign, and it still needs 38% to succeed!

I know there will be a final rush on the last 48 hours of the campaign, but I feel afraid that it may not fully reach the $600,000 goal.
Please any Descenter here, unite and spread the word as much as possible and let's make this happen!

Together we can do this.  People have counted out Descent before- let's make sure they'll never dismiss Descent again!

Oh, speaking of cool stuff...

Did you guys see the Oculus Rift in-game test today?

They just put up a video about Single Player:

If I had the money, I'd help some, but I am close to losing my job. My last day is the 10th. I may have another job lined up, but I am falling behind on bills as it is.

I wish you the best of luck. Nice to see Linux getting more attention, being that's all I have for an operating system/distro.

Thanks... I just watched that... with my eyes crossed.

I haven't donated, but haven't because A: I probably wouldn't be able donate much more than, like, 5 bucks, given my present economical situations which wouldn't really make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things, I feel, and B: DU hasn't won me over enough to make me comfortable with donating money to it just yet, as there wouldn't be much point to it if it ends up being a game I'll never play. It's sort of a precaution sort of thing, reason B, and it doesn't help that, unlike most Americans, I'm quite stingy and sensible with my money.

But I do want it shown on the record that even though I started out being VERY skeptical with DU, you've been slowly winning me over, to the point that I'm now more cautiously optimistic. And that vid discussing singleplayer has notably helped with that, dunkelza, so thank you for sharing that.

Wow.  It looks like a lot of folks are in a rough spot right now.

I'm sorry guys, I've been there way too many times.

I hope things turn around for you soon!

Just in case someone here would decide to support the project, note that there's a Kickstarter referal contest going on and you can win an AMD 295X Video Card!

I pledged.  It might even get me back into the mines!

[Pumo]

The campagin just entered into the most tense and stressful moment, it needs its final rush right now! 
Just 48 hours to go, be sure to pledge now if you really want to make this happen!

Also with the referal contest going out now, you still may have a chance to win the AMD 295X card!

Tell your friends, tell your family, tell your fiancée and even tell your dog or cat!
We need this to become a reality!

Did you guys see the new trailer video that just posted?

Oh my, that is gorgeous!
Whey there's not a jawdrop or drooling emoticon here for these situations?

a lot of it looks very nice indeed.

Maybe it's the age, maybe it's the different lifestyle, or whatever else, but I care more on if it's fun than a Descent feel. Both would be nice though, and maybe that will happen.

Nice promo I like how you used the design theme of the old promo for D3. I wonder, though, why did you use 'prepare for war' instead of 'Prepare For Descent'?

Not sure.  Maybe to stress the larger number of players in the biggest multiplayer options?

I saw the video at the same time as everyone else, so I don't know.
