Pioneer's Tarsus Coming Together Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Howard Day has released some new screenshots for WC Pioneer. The team is now in the process of beginning cockpit builds. In Pioneer's timeframe the Tarsus will be a newer ship, so they are sharpening it up slightly. So far it's coming together well and looks very much like the original. The second seat should actually see some use this time. Players will be able to hire a co-pilot for plotting courses, ensuring sufficient jump fuel and handling the controls when the pilot mans a turret. You can provide feedback and check out a ton of shots showing the progression of the design here.

In related news, the WC Pioneer team is also working on the look for their planets. The final designs will note cities, have dynamic clouds and tone down the reflection. These samples already look great though. You can offer further suggestions here.

Keep in mind that we've not even begun to touch clouds though. These planets will not have uniformly Californian weather when we're done. They're all procedurals mixed with satelite imagery, so they're infinitely randomizable.
