Some generous people have posted that they would be willing to donate to Data Realms to help us keep developing games… well, that’s great (just buy multiple copies of the game instead!), but this is what we really need:
Underground in rural Washington:
All that, available for the very reasonable price of $1.5M USD! Here’s the details. And here.
In other news, we’re hard at work on the updated submission for IGF which the judges hopefully will wait to see before they score. Once that is delivered, it won’t be long until the first commercial version of the game will be released. We plan to make it available at a discount from the final full price, since it will still not yet contain many of the campaign missions. However, if you buy the early discounted version, you’ll also get all future versions up to when the first full campaign is completed and released.
Also, you may have noticed that we’re moving servers.. we hit a snag with that and are still on the old box - but not for long. The new machine will be online in time for the first commercial release and should help ensure fast downloads.

well…hows Central Indiana? I have most of this build, except the antenna silos. ill let it go for a retail version of CC
http://www.themissilebase.com/
I lol’d
And with this, Data’s true plans are revealed: To have the most epic CC base IRL.
I think Apocalypse Towers would be more appropriate.
But we’d uh… Place you higher up.
No need to worry about the building breaking or anything, the buildings seem to be able to float.
Or we could just place you in the triple-steel barred brain room, whatever suits you best.
Ah, but does it have an fully equiped heli-pad? Post-apocaliptic video game room? Indoor pool? Data, I think you can do better!
Eternjc:
IT IS A FUCKING MISSILE BASE.
Can be equipped with helipad easily. Hell, you could land a helicopter on the doors of the silo!
In other news, NEW BUILD.
One - 6 story Entry Portal Building
Very…. Ominous.
I can’t sprite…at all
I am of no use to myself. *sigh*
Data, please don’t kill me for asking, I only ask what I ask once, will there be one final build release before CC goes commercial?
How much can we expect the Discounted commercial build to be?
no this wont be the final build he said earlier that when he updates it we will get the for free to so he will keep working and working and working and working till it is perfect.
we will get the updates for free sorry for the bad grammar
$1.5M? Doesn’t sound TOO costly. Can’t wait until the commercial build is released. It is going to be the first game I ever bought for myself with my own hard-earned money. ![]()
Build a rocket in case portal storms start opening up.
I’m buying for sure.
Great work getting to this stage, it’s all coming together!
Will you continue working on the game, updating it with patches/versions after the it is complete?
yay! New build! Hope Data wins the first prize in IGF, he earned it.
About the missile silo, looks cool. Just the place to hide when the zombies take over the earth. Oh, and make the server move quickly , I can’t survive without new mods!
Washington State represent!
I with Kallemort, talking about zombies will CC have any?
Hope you win Data ![]()
Wait what. Discount for the next build up to the first commercial version and then we gotta pay again for it?
Please clarify this, I don’t want to waste 50 euros again for The Orange Box and get ripped off again because this is a scam at the end.
So, if i buy one version of CC, i get the newer versions of it when they come out ?
And Data, please say one way to pay without cards, account numbers or something like that.
@aquageneral, Every game needs zombies, and the more the merrier!
@Karvabopi, yes, when you buy the discount version you get the later versions for free, so better off buying the discount one.
sounds cool! I wish I had 1.5M but I don’t…sorry ![]()
I’ll take eight!
Heh. This thing was being sold about 4 years ago. No one bought it, despite the bidding starting at around 500,000 I believe. The person stopped the bidding because everyone was making fake bids.
Nice! I am really hyped for Cortex Command now :D.
I want that! It’s so cheap! (relatively). It costs about the same as a very nice apartment!
haha i saw that on gizmodo looks cool, maybe you should buy it with all the money you make from cc
can wait for the cc commercial version, gonna be awesome!
Oh yay! A Missile Base! Let’s play NUKE WARS!
*Checks bank account*
For $1.5 million you could get a reasonably pathetic detached house in the UK. Housing prices here are ridiculous, I think I’m selling up and living in a missile silo, they wouldn’t charge me f**king hideous poll tax either.
Data I have a question. What is esactly the campainge going to be like? strategy, or maybe 2 sides fighting eachother. missions?
Aaaaww man, you must be kindding… we’ll need to buy the next version of the game???
O hai gaiz, the comment panel is not a substitute for our currently broken web forums. Keep spam out of here. fo realz.
Also, at least we know Data reads CAD.
How do you know that? (That Data reads Ctrl+Alt+Del)
I’m waiting on a “Buy now” link for CortexCommand ![]()
im not sure i trust data with my credit card number, hes young daring, unemployed and HE MAKES VIDEOGAMES FOR GOD SAKES. jk im gonna by 3 keys
God I just know there are gonna be some lifless pirating idiots that will hack the keys for this game and post them everywere. Its a shame. data i rly dont think keys are a great idea.
LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
(bored)
The funny thing is that it’s being sold via eBay.
This game has gotten way to big, I can see it now, getting fucked up by the second. Another game ruined, first Halo, now this?
Data you deserve to win IGF and you most likely will (unless it is rigged, then we might have a problem)
Cant wait until full version of the game comes out, ITS GOING TO BE SICK!!!!!!!!
@Whef:
“This game has gotten way to big, I can see it now, getting fucked up by the second. Another game ruined, first Halo, now this?”
Holy SHIT dude.
This game has maybe 250 actual active members in it’s community.
VERSUS HALO’S SEVERAL FUCKING MILLION.
Also, hurr, big community means game = shit?
Lolwut?
there are actually missle silos sitting around under peoples houses in countries with over averagely corrupt governments.
Iraq is one(not that u can find them).
Russia is one.
The US is one.
Why you gonna build this thing?
Just take advantage of the stupidity of the american military during and after the cold war
Go join the infantry GRIF
Go to iraq, safer than being in LA or any other large city
oh shit nvm
ummmm… lol?
shut up
Oh Jesus, I can’t wait for the new build. Fuck, it must be close to almost near the release!
for fucks sake, stop hyping it youll make it bad, just chill and tell your self its shit. that way when you get it youll be like OMFG THIS LIKE TOTALLY OWNS ALL!!!11!!!1 and im sure it will DATA…..would you kindly make it own DATA
you heard.
Come on…
You said soon, Data.
How soon is soon?
ten seconds from now rendering this post pointless?
an hour?
tomorrow?
a week?
a month?
a year?
a decade?
a century?
A date is much better than “soon”…
lol i wanna live in a missle silo,that would be the coolest shit ever,too bad you dont get a free cruise missle,that would be epic right there.
In other news…..I think im gonna rig the IGF thingy so CC wins,and leave no traces :P.
date please people are getting restless! many people will stop bugging you if you ell use a release date! ^^
Ygh. The forums are down, and it says “a day or so”. It said that a week ago.
No, it didn’t, it popped up yesterday.
We need to change servers so the forum is useable, so it’s down.
Prefer being incapable of posting or viewing topics?
Oh, wait, same thing.
As for dates, the next version will be out when he’s not too busy working with IGF.
Last, the deal with paying is that if you buy the next version, it will be at a discount, and not have all the features, but you will get any versions after that until the final build for FREE.
i know, i was like (a week ago) yes tomorrow itll be out! woo (funky dance) WOO! but it didn’t! data if you wouldn’t mind, please make a official non-move date! PLEASE!
He cant. He could just make a guess, but that’s probably the best it gets. Really, I think all we need is a date in the “how many weeks” range.
@31: What forum spam? You’re the only one spamming here…. talking about the Missile Base is On-Topic!
@ 55, or Tison345, if I feel like spelling your name out:
Half of this shit is spam. This is just more evident proof that this community is full of idiots.
yep and we are good at being idiots. besides, its the idiots that run the world.
I was banned from the forums for saying just that: There are lots of idiots in this community. By Thor, of course.
Anyway… I will definitely be buying multiple copies of CC, what with there not being a donate button. Is there an estimated price yet?
1-5?
6-10?
10-20?
20-40?
God stop bugging the guy, just zip it and let the genius work!
If you dont stop bugging him he might stop alltogether!
*off subject because lack of forum*
Data, how the hell did u do the realtime image rotation?
hmmm i was just thinking, i think this website needs like a media section. in that i mean a place to put lots of screen shots, gifs, movies and wallpapers(not that you have the time i guess)
hey vash, cruise missles cost at least 200 thou extra, and are kinda hard to get. But possible. And with the current economy, im not talking buying from the russians(they ran out)
BinLarden, thats true. Once you put a price on it, people are not gonna pay for it outright, because of your 4 movies on the front page
Eric, FUCK YOU, if you dont like it stfu and leave!
There Grif goes, being a fucking ass
hes obsessed with the fucking game, and still insuting it
obviously, this game wont go as big as halo
But that dosent mean only 25 people will buy it.
I know 5 people who play and would probably buy the game.
Thats in one small(ish) city.
But guess what! theres 1000000 other people i dont know
Once this game gets better the numbers will grow
Aim lower
NOTHING IS AS GOOD AS HALO
theannoyed1, i agree whole heartily, i will 12 of my friends will and many more that i don’t know in my town will. there are a good couple thousand in my county tons of people will buy and this ins in the us alone^^
I hope the price is between $15-$30
And I hope data releases a mac version side by side with the windows version D:
Otherwise I might cry. That’s right, tears will fly out of my eyes.
“NOTHING IS AS GOOD AS HALO” errrm, yes THIS IS BETTER but that’s an opinion.
No mac version, I believe he said that once… And Half-Life 2 is better than Halo…
Eric, before your post (31), there were no more than 5 posts that could be considered spam considering the devlog entry.
No, he told me in the forums that he was planning on a mac version.
I hope he sticks to that promise, because people with macs just LOVE awesome indie games :D. Plus it can’t be that hard to port as it’s mostly text and images (just a code-illiterate guess there), and it’d get him at least another $300 in a worst case scenario.
Plus, if you post it on macgamefiles.com, that’s going to get you a ton of buyers and lots of popularity.
@The Annoyed #62:
Lolwut?
When did I say only 25 people would buy it?
When did I say Halo was better than it?
Also, unless you’ve met 6,499,900,000 people in your lifetime, there are more than 100,000 people on the earth you don’t know.
I said that the ACTIVE COMMUNITY had no more than 250 members.
As in, the people who regularly post on the forums.
Please to be trying to read my post before attempting to troll me in future.
@Tison:
Mac version will come once the game gets close to being complete. Which may mean with the first commercial build.
@Robolee:
Agree muchly, this game is far better than Halo, and if TheAnnoyed had bothered to read my statement he would’ve realized that I never said Halo was better than this.
Also, you’re all being far too optimistic.
This is a tiny indie game with a pathetic marketshare.
Sure, it’s an absolutely fucking awesome indie game, but being awesome does not mean that people will spontaneously stumble upon this site, with 30 dollars clutched loosely in their hands.
Just to prove the point, not saying it will cost 30 dollars.
Sorry, missed a zero on “TheAnnoyed”’s comment.
Should be “unless you’ve met 6,499,000,000 people in your lifetime, there are more than 1,000,000 people on the earth you don’t know”
Can I pay with brazilian money?
I THINK YOU SHOULD ALL SHUT UP AND SPAM THIS DEVLOG LESS FOR THE LOVE OF CHRIST.
I don’t care how much the final costs, just PLEASE ship it officially to U.S. games retailers. I’m not messing with hackable Paypal BS. Seriously, if I can’t just go down to Best Buy and get it, I won’t bother. I’m not waiting for weeks to get a game in the mail.
What spam, Eric? Goddamn it, shut up!
And Jox, I’m brazillian too… if you have an international credit card you can.
Eric has no life if he just sits all day monitoring the Dev Log for spam!
yup
pretty much^^
well at least he’s addressing it and not doing it.
yup
hey, karva, some is becoming a Mr. Grumpy Gills. ^^
Ok, those were 6 posts of spam, stop making him right! Just so this isn’t spam:
When will the IGF version come out, do the judges already have it? What new features can we expect?
Hmm i don’t have that kind of cach on me buy i could buy some shovels and we could build oure own, how does that sound?
People, quit swearing at eachother or I’ll have you all personally banned from the Dev Log comments.
I think we can expect a KICKASS level editor and an AWSOME campaign mode. Im gonna buy this game within the first two seconds that it comes out.
Hey dude swearing is so 10 - ll year old-ish. its stupid an immature
Way to go LastBannana !!!!!! keep the dev logs clean. not that i don’t swear, its kinda just unnecessary
If someone says “Spam” one more time I will kill myself
Jesus Christ, I can’t fucking wait anymore! We don’t have any forums to get mods or shit, and the new version has no release date… AAAAARGH!
NO SWEARING!
JESUS CHRIST FORUM BACK!
oh my god seriously most of you are like little 11 year old kids, and you just annoy the **** out of me and most other people. i personaly think swearing is a good thing to let out steam but i do agree DONT DO IT ON THE DEVLOG SO MUCH BECAUSE IT MAKES VISITORS THINK BAD THINGS…
back to the point, seriously data by not releasing any info you all have us completely hyped up. its not fair ![]()
I still think you should make it non-commercial and open source. Generous people would donate and contribute - the project would never die.
i suck ass hole
:)
IMPORTANT: Forums back up. :IMPORTANT
:)
Keep conversations to the forums please. The dev log is for discussion of the dev log posts only.
Sorry for the backseat moderating. :p
where will the game be sold, will it be all over he world or just in the states or somewhere like that?
just dont insult anything grif
wouldnt that solve a lot of problems
Oh i know its not the american way, but, do it anyway
just DON’T SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE
@ #73 PointlessSoldier:
Do you know how much does retail selling cost?!
It’s about millions!
And Data doesn’t have millions, do he?
“just dont insult anything grif
wouldnt that solve a lot of problems
Oh i know its not the american way, but, do it anyway
just DON’T SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE”
Hooray American stereotyping, whee.
Also, nice job being a hypocrite.
I suggest you both shut the hell up before you both get
banned off the devlogs.
Fippe, id say thousands not millions, but yeah…
he should get sponsors and relase retail version, or get a contract of some kind, he’d get hell richer faster but wouldn’t get ALL the money
Ei, Tison, daonde vc é?
100th post!
Jox: Curitiba
“I still think you should make it non-commercial and open source. Generous people would donate and contribute - the project would never die.”
LOL; JUST LOL! Sure, because people will jut donate because it’s a great game, and that will get more money than selling it. If he wants to sell it, Let him sell it!
WHEN WILL THE NEXT VERSION COME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“many people will stop bugging you if you ell use a release date! ^^” ~TOBBS40
And then, when the estimate is off, and the game doesn’t release THE EXACT SECOND he said it would, he would get mobbed by the part of the 1,000,000 people waiting for the game that don’t understand the meaning of “tentative release date”. Since he hasn’t put up a release date, it probably means he has no idea how long the game is going to take (remember that even though the engine is there, there is NO story in the game yet, save for the opening intro, although he might have something in for the IGF version). He really doesn’t have any way of knowing, because as you add things into a game, it makes other unforeseen things necessary to make the new stuff work. I imagine that some additions and tweaking of the engine will be necessary to allow storyline and missions and such. I think he doesn’t give even an estimate of how long it will take because he’d rather have the devlog filled with people telling him to finish the game instead of spa*, hate messages, and threats from people who can’t handle him missing the estimated date. I will give you an estimate that probably isn’t much different from what he could give you; CC will likely come out within a year, almost definitely withing two years, and definitely within five years.
“just dont insult anything grif
wouldnt that solve a lot of problems
Oh i know its not the american way, but, do it anyway
just DON’T SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE” ~THEANNOYED1
You’ve got the wrong look on it; it’s not that it isn’t the American way; it’s that it isn’t the way of many individuals living in America. I’m an American, but I do my best to keep from insulting anyone on the forums or anywhere else. It’s my personal choice, not rest of America’s. I’m not offended, but I wanted to point this out because what you said could very well be taken as an insult (thus as “SOMETHING NEGATIVE”) by someone else.
As long as the questions are about CC (even if they might be a bit annoying to some), they aren’t really spa*. In fact, someone who comes in and looks at the devlog to find 100+ posts eagerly asking about features and how the game is going might actually be inspired to look around a bit more and learn about the game (= +1 CC fan that might buy the final release). However, if they find 40+ posts that contain swearing, pointless gibberish (which is kept out of here fairly well in my opinion), and people arguing amongst themselves, they might miss the posts praising the game and decide to leave.
With all of the posts about asking about the final release, maybe Data will release a FAQ eventually, answering some of the common ones. Otherwise, we’ll get to find out mostly on our own (and from previews which will prossibly be given along the way). I don’t consider that a bad thing.
As far as everyone giving Data advice, I prefer to think that he is rather intelligent and has thought things through. Assuming this is the case, then asking that the game be made free is pointless. Regardless, there is no denying that he deserves to make money off of it because of the amount of money he has undoubtedly sacrificed to get this far. Mow much money are his six+ years of work worth? Assuming that overall he worked an average of 2 hours a day for six years, his work would amount to about 25,400 US dollars at a minimum wage of $5.85 (and that is assuming no profit over the hours he worked). So even if he only worked an average of half an hour or less per day, it adds up to thousands of dollars, plus the fact that he’s quit two jobs along the course of the development, partially so he could focus on the game. Besides, folks, you realize that part of the funds that he gets will probably be put into the next game he makes, or whatever other project he might begin right? If anyone wants the game enough to beg for it to be made free, they probably want it bad enough to be willing to pay the money when it comes out and isn’t. Anyway, assuming 1,016 games are purchased for $25.00 each, data will have the $25,400 I mentioned earlier. Hopefully at least that many people will (I’m pretty sure he’ll get many more sales than that). I’m happy for him.
(To avoid confusion, that wasn’t sarcasm. XP) And hey, look! I actually just used the math I learned in ninth grade!
Alright, I’ll stop now. Have a good day everyone (and especially you, Data, now that you have an idea of how much you might hopefully get off of this
).
[Note; the word spa* (* = |\/|) has been censored in this message so that DELGADO may spare his own life.]
Hehe. Sorry ’bout that…
How to make people happy about release date in three easy steps:
1. Estimate very roughly the the time it would take to finish the product.
2. Add 20+ days to this time.
3. Announce this as release date.
Everyone has a date to look forward to, and they will be even more happy if it gets released before then. Yay, we all win.
it’s not that simple Hiro, not that simple…
when your programming in your SPARE time a bug can take weeks to fix a whole new AI… think about it
damn:
when your programming in your SPARE time a bug can take weeks to fix.
a whole new AI… think about it
Robolee, Data doesn’t have a job.
He’s got lots of spare time, not that I’m saying that debugging’s easy.
Pie2.1, if you really like the pretty yellow and black stripes that much, you can set it as your desktop. I like them, but as a /border/. Do the internets a favor, and don’t pagestretch.
Data: I know you shouldn’t have to, but could you(or some team member) keep a closer watch on the devlog? It’s on the brink of getting ugly.
Data, stop spamming out the Devlog.
Prom & Data, what ARE your regular jobs btw?
“Robolee, Data doesn’t have a job.
He’s got lots of spare time, not that I’m saying that debugging’s easy. ”
HE HAS A WIFE women demand certain things THAT TAKE UP YOUR SPARE TIME, also how do you know he doesn’t have a job, he’d be like homeless by now.
@McFuggly
also we demanded updates, he gave one it may not be CC related but it’s HIS devlog therefore NOT spam.
DON’T BE SO UNGRATEFUL
@robolee wow another person that uses like as a connective.
anyway i seriously think there should be more updates, like daily or once every 2 days talking about what they have achieved and ideas for what they might next implement. because then we can follow more closely as a community. sort of like a blog but not all the “wow i just had a turd and it was like 3 inches long” kinda crap.
actually I don’t use it as a connective I use it as a replacement for “this is exaggerated:”
@ Robolee
I know there are complications
that’s why I said 20+ (Note the +)
@robolee: you die now
..
.
erm yeh cant wait for next build….
well, hiro, essentially 20+ could mean up to infinite, so I would say that you meant a maximum of 25-30, but what ever.
also brinlarden I don’t see how I offended you? (unless someone posted as me???)
What’s up with the forums?
I CANT WAIT!!!!!
That was serious devlog spam.
Also, where is Data? I haven’t seen him post in the forums or here in a while… Work? Busy? Plot thickening?
This is what I hate happening, the forums become dead causing everyone to flood the Devlog with spam.
I thought the same as you Agent15, Data has not commented for nearly a week.
Everyone is complaining about it not being released, the forums being down, and data not posting. But the time he dedicates to the DR project he spends on making the game.
He might wanna finish it soonish, because he’s looking at a few thousand dollars immediatly
hey, how about this. if someone kinda insults you think (in your head) “they are just morons”and just don’t retaliate. there would be a lot less spam, and people wont get mad. its a win win situation. it would also hopefully reduce spam a bunch, or not you know the worlds not perfect. plus people won’t be pissed off and one last thing, people who see a less spammed blog will be like “hey this seems like a good game, and theres not much spam, too”.
and don’t hurt me, please I’m just some one offering suggestions
that is a good suggestion…i like it.
on topic,Data are we going to get WORKING WATER? because that would be awsome,or maybe suffocation without air would be good too.
Water would be very hard to do. If you made it pixels: hard to code and major lag. Not really any other way except having “areas” of water, which if you went in for too long you died. But that wouldn’t really be water, since it wouldn’t drain.
STOP ASKING FOR WATER! It has been discussed many times.
let it use the GPU and physics card (if that would be possible?) and working pixel water would be fine…
if we wanna donate than can we buy in a bundle? and can you PLEASE give us an estimate on when the game will come out or @ least where you are at?
but don’t worry. we still love you data. Maybe.
I’m going insane without an update! Data hasn’t posted in a week or so. Lack of news… killing… me… urg…
Data is busy still with the IGF version, or so i’ve heard.
Need.Update.Now.Please.Data.Don’t.Torture.Me.Like.That.
*has heart attack*
no, wait!
*gets back up*
whew, now I can keep checking. Data, enlighten our souls as to the state of the game!
It’s easy to see why data isn’t posting! Orange box!
No new posts in the DevLog or by Data in two days… I’m worried.
I quote as earlier:
“Data is busy still with the IGF version, or so i’ve heard.” - Me
hahaha…..
dude..
idk what to say
that would be awsome to have thou…
Still… it’d be nice if he showed up for 2 seconds to make a post…
Support you all the way, Datagod!
is data gonna make us pay to play it cause it sounds like it
Only $ 1.5 m !
That’s about £750,000.
A small flat in London costs more than that.
Do want.
Yes. That’s why the new build is the commercial version.
Start listening, you might learn something.
Read before you post
and if you dont have time to read… DON’T POST
and to every person complaining and/or demanding,
if you dont like it play something else
really good games
like halo,
battle field,
or on a way way way worse note
soldat
and Barbie video game
If anyone is seriously thinking about buying multiple copies, i would gladly accept one, seen as I cannot buy a retail version, no matter how much I want one. ![]()
email me at brendan@blacksunpro.com
Make sure you have a good excuse, I don’t want to be handing our copies to lazy people.
If I believe you, I’ll send you the key or whatever.
Data, since you don’t know the release date yet, can you give us a price estimation with and without discount?
We’d all appreciate it. ![]()
I heard around $30 is the estimate… I’d pay it gladly.
Since CVS and all of those other drugstores now have those preloadable debit-card thingies, I can buy stuff on internets.
lol $30? $15 at the most for the 1st commercial build. final will be more though, unless you bought the 1st commercial build.
This would make a great multiplayer online game
I’d say that anywhere from 10-20 dollars is about right for the first build. Really, I would pay up to 35, since I love Cortex Command, it has great mods, and I know it will be updated. However, I wouldn’t buy multiple copies. I am buying a copy for some other guy who can’t buy a copy, so I would hope the price isn’t too high.
yah 10-20 dollors sounds resonable and also the charecters are a bit heavy say if im a robot and i have one of theose long cannon guns all my booster fuel goes away just trying 2 lift off the ground also.If u tap the booster button for a rocket or a comando dude u will fly super fast.But for the robots this doesnt work.
@grif
most people who will buy cc live in north america
to the rest of you, why are you so patriotic?
you know your country is screwed up
My country is fine the way it is. I love my country a lot, if you can fuck yourself if you don’t like it.
Give me one reason why my country is bad.
@THEANNOYED1
What country isn’t screwed up? As long as people are involved, nothing quite works right. At any rate, “patriotism” isn’t one of my traits. Live abroad for a few years and suddenly people become more important than location.
USA USA USA USA USA USA PATRIOTISM! I LOVE MY COUNTRY AND THE PRESIDENT! LOVE IS THE RIGHT WAY!
Hey! Stick to the topic. this is about cc grif. Not about what country is better. So to stay on topic, and this ‘?’has been asked before, when will cc grif be out? please data tell use where you are @ least! pwity pwese?
Data has been rumored to be working on the new build a bunch, just not been active on the forum and whatever. He is probably having a life. Or vacation, but he would probably tell someone of the latter.
I’m sure he’s busy with his own shit.
On the other hand, I FUCKING NEED THE NEW VERSION ARGRGRH
Agent15 got it right. Been working very hard on the igf and commercial versions, but also took a few days off last week.
All I can say is that the next version you play will be like a whole new experience from before. And it will be affordable, and anyone shuold be able to buy a copy with at least one of the payment methods we will support.
Whole new experience?
*Drool*
Need new cc now…
WHere is the linux version?????
YAY DATA!!!
does this mean update very soon?
I also noticed you had the time to report some independent gaming news to tigsource
I suppose you do have the right to have a break but its a bit close eh?
Well, seeing as Data is modest, if Data says it’s gonna be good. Now that I have official confirmation about what the shit going on is, I can relax and wait for the new build.
*twitch*
OMG I CANT WAIT DATA I CHECK THIS WEBSITE EVERYDAY!!!!
WAT U SAID RIGHT THERE MADE ME ALMOST PISS MYSELF!!!!!
OMG CANT WAIT CANT. . . . . crap not again . . . meh i need
new shorts
Whered my post go
delgado, same hear, but i just took a piss ^^ but yes funaly he responds du du du da! ah yes now everyone will be less egdy! wooo! hey, i heard that! ^^
merchandise dude
tshirts
mouse pads
normal stuff
mail order/creditcard payment
Who wouldnt want that?
CORTEX COMMAND RINGTONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(epic moneymaker)
That would be hard to do, since Cortex Command isn’t really a band or anything.
how so?
its very easy to get stuff made
then ya mail it off
its done a lot…
What if it was possible for a bunker
maker to define where the clones could take up defense?
So when your normal defense clones
died, you could just poop out new ones,
and would take the dead one’s place.
Yeah guess what me and my friend made, cortex T-shirts. dark blue, and we printed “cortex Command” logo onto special paper then iorned it onto the shirts. walla CC shirts
And then on the back we put http://www.datarealms.com
half-life2 was maiking much faster than cortex.Aahh when the full version will in my hands?WHEN?i just cant wait any longer>)
So, when the full version or new build of CC will be? It’s so long time to wait!
HL2 had like 100+ people working on it… and it still took about 4 years…
Data, are you going to change the TDExplosive system? Right now its kinda limited if we’d look at the current stuff how we can control the particles that get out of the TDExplosive when we use the timer variant.
I’ll send a PM later explaining how you could make it more universal so we could use the timer and have more control over on almost anything we’ll ever imagine!
Damnit. I just had another dream about the new cortex command build being released. So… beautiful…
Heheh.
Oh my god, I need the new build. I’m checking the site every five minutes… I can not look for an hour if I am playing a good game, but it’s still hard not to look!
The new build: So close yet so far.
@128/Tison
A GPU would contribute little to the game. Hardware acceleration doesn’t do much for 2d games. You’d get, with a good GFX card, and perfect hardware acceleraation, maybe .5 ghz more Cpu.
Everyone hyped for the new build play Toribash 3.0 wich just came out.
CC will be epic and already is epic, my friends come over and we play CC with gamepads on a plasma, its tons of fun, cant wait for the commercial vers for even more fun ![]()
That’s what I’ve been doing, but I suck at it. Fortunately, I have Mount and Blade, a bunch of good Steam games, and some other stuff to keep my mind off of it. Still hard..
TB 3.0 has been distracting me, but since it’s kinda brahken, it’s not working. I can’t wait for the buy button to appear; I can’t wait to hand over my money.
Seriously.
omg.. data!
I wana play new Build´s!!!… DATA!!!
I WiLl PlAy ThE NeXt BuIlD NoW! ^_^’…
xD
i check the this side every minute (or hour ) but no now post?… DATA!!!
Data get hurry! I wIlL ExPloDe!…
P.S.
Manuel G. und ist Hooohl und müde…
xD
nicht böse sein!
ive got other games but my PC is junk…
so i cant play them
i cant play dust to on CSS
my pc is SOoooo slow its only got 1 core
ok seriously. I cant wait another day longer.
I’M DYING!!!!!!
1 core isnt bad. If your computer cant handle CS:S, try turning graphics down. it sounds like a software problem, not hardware.
Or your graphics card might not be too good.
“I wIlL ExPloDe!…”
Every time someone types like that I die on the inside.
On a lighter (or darker) note, I’m excited for all of you that get to play the new build when it’s out. I lack a paypal or a credit card, myself, and my parents are like “wtf internets steels monies rite??” so they wouldn’t buy it for me.
Someone tell me what it’s like D:
I would buy it for you, but I am already buying it for some other guy.
You cant say it sounds like like a graphics problem, it could be any number of reasons - as far as I remember CS:S only requires 1000mhz processor. Graphics-wise it only needs something equally low [my friend was running it fine on a radeon 9400 [or something low end on that series]] Ram is also the other obvious issue basically you just cant say for sure w/ the amount of info he gave us… That was longer than I meant it to be :P.
@treelor: My parents are the same, althought I hope there will be a way to buy the game without credit cards or paypal.
And: Wtf the forums not work:
General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]
Lost connection to MySQL server during query [2013]
An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.
yep forums r defiantly down, i just checked
When can we expect the forums to be back up?
never. Get used to it.
never
wj told me
jk
but really, i need the forum up
and the new build
It’ll be up as soon as we figure out what’s wrong

Wow what a dumbshit. I WOULD PLAY NEXT BUILD OUT NOW…GET HURRY
I can’t wait for it either, but I don’t go around showing that I haven’t deserved any birthday parties since the age of six by going omguh i mUsT pLay coRTex cOMMAnd or iLl asplode
SERIOUSLY
GO EAT SOME SNAKES
Psh, any wacky Indian man can eat snakes!
And swords.
Damn foreigners…
Please get the forums up, I live for that forum.
It helps me get out of bed in the mornings and thinking about it gets me through the day.
Please, Please get it up soon, I NEED that forum.
but we still have the src forums trouserdemon
and i made the src guard-bot im waiting for the forums now…
data! hurry!
but dont go so fast it makes the game worse/buggy (like builds 15-17)
take yo time
Hey guys, it looks like Data told us that he doesn’t know the problem XD
The closely knit community is broken, and I’m still blocked from IRC. If someone would kindly unblock me I’d be most pleased ![]()
Please, be pattiant EVERYONE!
Just curious Whitty, but could you post the URL of said forum ? I’m sure you could get a fair bit of interest if you opened it up to the public right now.
Post your guard bot on the SRC forums whitty, and give a link here.
Maybe we can get more people to visit our forum.
Trouserdemon, you sound like a drug addict.
And it would be nice to get some dev updates from you, Data. Fuel our passion, y’know :-).
But I NEED this forum.
I feel desolate without it.
Gimme linkage to the SRC forum. NOW.
Yes the disappearance of the forum is like a big puncture wound in the skin of my life. I can wait for the final build but this is just too much. I can’t bear to be away from it, I miss it’s beautiful black and red theme…
the forms are up for me anyways…
hurry up if you can please with the game please some are competing for the roll of “the littlest emo” hurry up man!
cc is fun^^
Hahah, its funny watching the community collapse when the forums are down and the new build is near(?) completion.
We need an estimate release! Something basic so people will shut up.
Phew, the IGF update is finally done!
This is the reason for the radio silence for so long, had to focus all efforts on it. Will make post soon with more details and the plan for the near future.

the wait is nearly over.
i will pay no matter what.
make the update good, with like lots of screenies, and all the features and all that jazz.
Leave us a post, I’m still drooling all over my keyboard (bad thing, its a laptop)!
Now that the new build has been completed, peace is restored throughout the universe.
Everything is as it should be.
The rightful order has been restored.
(lol)
omg this is epic. I’m actually surprised that they finished it in that short amount of time. Kudos to Data. Please post back soon
DATA!!!…

Ok, one quick suggestion that would prevent a _lot_ of frustrated screams and broken keyboards:
When you play the game and use Esc to get to the menu, Please let another Esc activate the [back to Game] button and not [quit]! Shouldn’t be too hard (I figure), but would Really help.
Thanks.
well jeca, that’s never happened to me and its a bit late to ask for that (seeing as how he said its finished “the IGF update is finally done!”)
I suppose they’re adding final finishing touches. or waiting for the server move before posting it.
Just don’t double tap escape. I like the feature, since when I’m making mods it lets me exit quickly and restart so i can check new additions, etc.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!
AND what a great way to start off withh uhhh ummmm no no NO NO NO NO NO NO FORUMS ARE DOWN AGAIN. THE COMMUNITY HAS COLLAPSED!!!!!!!
again ![]()
YEAH… (i´m back ((AGAIN)) )

Well yea, I saw that, but felt it could be good to mentioned while I remembered. And AGENT15, in future builds you’ll be able to prompt reloading of all .ini files (maybe even specific ones) so then you won’t have to exit the game at all. But yea, I get your point.
It said “just a moment” 7 hours ago. ****!
tendrop hes said that it will be up Soon so just wait another day or so shesh
DAY!!!!!!!!!!! I NEED THOSE ROCKET GIBS, WEAPON PACKS, CROBOS AND SUCH NOW NOW NOW!!!!!!!!
wow halloween didnt feel like halloween this year
maybe because im getting older
but i had a great time anyway.
anyone egg anything?
cant wait for next build.
earlier there was mention of getting CC on steam
that still under consideration? was it ever? because most of the effort is being used to charge for CC, if the steam guys have already done that…
It´s interesting 4 all, thats the next build of cortex command comming soon!!! Or i´m the only one that ist interest O_o
lol…
P.S. (sry.. bad english.. *outgermanwritexDlol)

XDevil
Meh. Should’ve seen this coming. I guess now we just wait…AGAIN. I HAVE A PRIVATE MESSAGE I WANNA READ TOO!
forums are back up. YOUR LIVES ARE BACK!
in the other news Forum is back
woohoo forms
I WANT THE FUCKING GAME!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!!
YEAH U R RIGHT!!! >__
The spelling on the DevLog is worse than on the forums D:
i’ve just finished new clones skins!masterchief,HAZE soldier & a fucking minigun with own sound!its takes me for a while>_
whopdee doo wee no spell good
an’ grammar b much bad 2
but it b de internet so it no matter!
why the hell has there been no devlog update yet??
its my birthday tomorrow (2nd)
i want the update as my prezzie
yeh.
Demanding won’t get you anywhere, unless you have a gun, but then again that is different… So maybe if your a bit more patient then Data might just release it. If I was the one developing Cortex Command, and had loads of people demanding me to release it for a certain date, i’d wait and release a couple of weeks after. Be grateful that Data even decided to make Cortex Command.
why the fuck would you do that, sure it’d hype it, but everyone would hate you.
i can wait for the build,but i want an update on the devlog with some info.
pics and feats.
Yeah, but they don’t know when you plan to release it. Do you hate Data since he hasn’t finished it yet?
There you go, he might have finished it, and might be waiting for a certain date to release, but none of us know that, so we just wait.
no course i dont hate data and thats not the point i was getting at, I DONT CARE WHEN ITS RELEASED I JUST WANT AN UPDATE. what your saying is that because everyone is saying ‘please give it to us’ youd be like ‘no piss off, muwhahaha’.
ok it all makes sense now. youre evil.
aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
j/k
No, I’m not saying that, if someone comes to you in the street and randomly demands something of you, you’d be like no. But lets say they asked politely, then that maybe different.
Same thing applies here.
welll….depends who, i mean if its a chav that will knife me, then yeh id probs hand it over….
i see your point, i guess data’s having fun being a biatch. joking.
i know i would.
your not a chav are you?
(spider-pig…)
OMG I´M WAITING AND WAITNG AND WAITNGAND WAITNG… and no new Post? O_o whats wrong??? :’(… WANA PLAY NEW BUILD OUT(SCH) NOW!!!
=)

XDevil
omg lol i can´t said > _ _
@Brinlarden
Happy birthday!
XDevil, can you just shut up?
You aren’t contributing, you are wasting lots of space with useless spam, and are annoying as hell. Just be quiet, please.
Ok sorry… ^^ didn´t spam again… (*spam)
DATA 4 EVER! =)
*shutupnow
you know what xdevil i wont vote for you when your trying to be president because you would just make people spam EVERYTHING SO… back on topic- data talk to us tell us when will the game thing be out?
He said it was done and it just needs to be updated. Well, he said it’s done, so I’m not sure what’s left.
it just occured to me…
somebody should make this base as a scene
i can mod, but i wont do it well
somebody make it
i accept this challenge
whitty2 go for it!
It will be hard to do what with the lack of furniture, and the base being 3d. Although I guess you could do a long base with a bunch of guys in it and “pretend” room purposes.
Still, good luck.
@Brin
No, I’m not, thank god ![]()
But I mean, if it was a friend, and they said to you “Give me a twix.” I know I would say no, but if they asked, and didn’t demand, I’d probably go buy ‘em one.
y’ever scene the skyscrapers or whatever they’re called?
‘death’ towers or somethin
motto ‘Hope your alive to say goodbye’
really good scene
anyway, it had filing cabinets that werent on a team but still gibbed when you shot them and you couldnt pick them up
that would be the furiniture
and put a lot of stuff in the background
lights and retro consoles and stuff
we should defanitly move this to a topic in the forum
if anybody does that, link to it
hey somebody with icq on board?
-_-no i DO NOT spam… xDDDD
P.S.
Still waiting `_´ (chinese)
Meh, I think that more of a summary of what we should be asking for is simply a dev post showing off the new version, or telling us when it will be shown.
Needs Less “omgfgs whars be gaem warnt baiii!!11″ posts
If not, meh, data will release it when he wants to, and he shouldn’t do so any sooner.
And also, that tower map was cool. A remake would be neat; there hasn’t been anything like it since, so far as I know. Cityfight would be awesome in Cortex Command.

Or, an update at least of when you WILL post it ![]()
I noticed people around the fifties or something saying that swearing is for 10 yo’s and 11’s. I’m 12 and i never say… f***. Unless I’m really, REALLY pissed off.
Message for Data: I want to make sure that you’re actually looking on the Devlog, so please answer my suggestion:
If you want this game to be really safe, try getting it on steam. I have never seen a steam game (exept demos and some mods) being downloadable for free on any site. I’m pretty sure it’s really safe.
There’s also an indie game that was made by a normal group of people, not a company, called Ragdoll Kung-Fu. This game was posted on steam, so maybe you should follow that exaple.
Also, I’m not lying when I said I was 12 ![]()
Shut the hell up you babies.
It’s a damn 2D computer game, and you’re acting like a bunch of rabid animals over it.
Yes, I’m talking to you Xdevil. And you Resolut. You make me ashamed of just being the same species as you.
SHUT THE HELL UP AND NEVER POST AGAIN.
Also, to Afroded, who can actually behave like a member of the human race, steam isn’t such a great idea. Not everyone has a steam account, and steam isn’t for mac so he’d be shutting out a bunch of game-deprived mac users
And don’t forgot the wait when you start up a game. *Shudder*
I think that there is no need for CC to go on Steam.
No need, at all. No purpose. Don’t do it. Steam makes things horrible.
data, what ARE you doing?
finalising the game, trying to find suitable paying methods/ serial key stuff?
in other news data mentions turrets in the igf description “defensive turrets”, official turrets or the mod versions?
Why would data use other people’s mods to make HIS game?
=/
well… the game can be already done, but he might be setting up a payment method so why are you all getting so jittery. completely pointless. so just shove it up your *** and DEAL with it, its just a game. gosh man just like a herd of speeding ge-tars in California, no patience. gees. Now then, how old are all of y’all? because if your older than 12 then you have to have just a Bit of patience. man its just a game. so like i said “just shove it up your *** and DEAL with it”
by the way please don’t hurt me (whimper) =/
funny change of attitude there TOBBS40.
but really, Data, some word from you would be nice. I’m getting tired of checking this site three times a day
And, finally, say NO to steam. And if you do use it, please have another way of buying it (maybe direct2drive?).
Oh well, let’s just be patient, wait for Data to post and sing. Someone continue the song (If you know it) (you probably don’t).
On the first day of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
and hills and sand and rings
the first thing I met

No I’m not spamming you fucktard.
I’m telling you to shut the hell up because YOU are spamming.
You just need to face the facts: you and resolut are behaving like a couple of whiny babies wanting to open their presents on Christmas Eve.
In fact, I don’t think you’re old enough to handle all the shooting and explosions in Cortex. All those bullets might give you nightmares, little one.
mature…
fucktard?
How old and big are you anyway?
8ft 24 inches

that last post was really uncalled for
i get rid of my stress with internet debates…
but what Hiro’s doing is just insulting people
like go to the last devlog post, Path Finding You say
the debate between me and grif
at least that was entertaining
but you doing this shit is like….
Get out of the FUCKING devlog and go to a chat room
