Assessment
Good start, I went ahead and put it as a start class. A good article and should not be deleted. Keep chugging and this could develop to a C class or better article eventually. GroundZ3R0 002 (talk) 20:33, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Screenshots needed
The article is in need of some good illustration. If anyone reading this has a copy of the game, could you please personally take some screenshots, upload them and put them in the article? They need to be taken by the person uploading them, I understand, so as to comply with Wikipedia's policies re copyright. Something illustrating the camera control and maybe some closeups of the various races would be ideal. - DustFormsWords (talk) 02:34, 26 October 2009 (UTC) I might do that. I have the game (that's the whole reason I started this article!) and could take some screenshots. I might even do a composite of all the units of every race. But don't count on it.

Right now it falls under start class, however several small things could be done to make it C-Class
- Paragraphs should never be just 1-2 lines. Merge smaller paragraphs for better flow.
- A screenshot of gameplay would help immensely.
- If you've got redlinks, de-link them unless you plan to create an article for them.
- Dates such as 11 September 2001 need to be put into the proper format (September 11, 2001).
- "Far Gate, known prior to release as The Rift," would probably work better as "Far Gate (known prior to release as The Rift)"
Aside from that just read through it again to make sure it flows well. You'd be surprised what you find on another read through. It's close to C class to so keep it up! --Teancum (talk) 15:25, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks heaps for the feedback Teancum, much appreciated! - DustFormsWords (talk) 22:11, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
