Stellar Warfare Game adds third person flight controls 3ffa multiplayer footage
1Stellar Warfare features a wide variety of single and multiplayer game modes. These include a small single player campaign, a single player skirmish and a single player wave defence mode. There is also a multiplayer skirmish mode, a coop wave defense mode, a base assault mode, a multiplayer battle royale gamemode. The game has been covered by YouTubers such as SplatterCatGaming, Raptor and DiplexHeated.
The Dutch game studio Tense Games added direct ship control to Stellar Warfare last Thursday. You can now fly individual ships like you would in Freelancer, Elite Dangerous or Star Wars: Tie Fighter. Quite unique for a real-time strategy game.
Stellar Warfare has been released into early access on August 4 2021 after three years of development. A lot of features have been added to the game since then. There are weekly updates, constant polishing and the occasional quality of life improvement.
Earlier Tense Games already added a coop wave defence and a single player base assault game mode to the RTS. Strategy games usually don't have third person controls for units. It would be akin to being able to play a shooter with an archer in Age of Empires 4.
In its current state the feature is fairly basic. The developer plans to improve upon this feature more in the future.
“Right now the direct control mode is fairly basic. It wasn't even a planned feature. But every now and then you have to do something fun for the project you are working on to keep the creative ideas flowing. In the future I'd like it to function like the fighter controls in Elite Dangerous or Freelancer”.
-Thomas van den Essenburg, lead developer
In addition to the new direct control feature the building construction also received a rework. Buildings now have proper animations while being constructed which improves the visuals drastically.
