Millennium 3 is a space exploration/trading/combat simulation set in the 31st Century. If you've played the 1984 classic Elite or its 1993 sequel Frontier, you'll be familiar with the concept, which Millennium 3 takes to new levels of persistence, detail and immersion.

Wow, Paul, I've been checking back here off and on for what seems like years now, and I'm totally jazzed by the new screenshots you've put up! They look FANTASTIC - even if they're not representative of the game at all. Best of luck to you and here's to a speedy development process!

Looking good dude :) wicked to know youre still making progress

Oh man. Elite and Frontier both excellent games. Microsoft's Freelancer tocuhed on what can be done. But we want more space and more ports and more ships and more of everything. And dont forget we want to be able to land on plants (manually) and muck it it if we crash so we can get out of our ships and wander around. 3 games in one. Come on.. lets get the ball rolling eh?

Last Updated 2006! Why? Whats going on?

Hi there,

any chance to get this done ?
I hope there will be a demo next time ? Please release soon...

Mfg

I loved Elite 2, and there has been nothing to touch it since. I cannot wait to see this, looks perfect :o)

Wow, this is amazing stuff. I'm in uni doing IT but I'm predominantly a novelist.

I can help with conversation lists, plots, dialogue, characters etc. I am at your command oh mighty lord of game design!

Screenshots look good! Sounds like something REALLY interesting. Im a Software engineer based up in Edinburgh and would love to get involved in the project- at any level.

Pete

Where are you? im worried for a number of reasons
1:This is the game im most looking forward to
2:why in gods name are we the only ppl who realise that flying down onto a planet is the way forward for space games?...hurry up man give me this game...i need it

Please can you make sure this game is produced quickly and fully... I think you will find that many many Elite and First Encounters fans have been wondering why its taken so long for this game to happen :)

please can i have a go with a beta? please :D

ur werk is gert mint loike, proper job.

keep up the work its looks wicked!

why not try and get some more help for it?

Please repost the last released alpha 4.3 (<em>millenn_a43.exe</em>) from circa 2000. Thanks!

Meh
This is totaly deader than dead what a waste of time.

That's what you think ;-)

It is all bullshit... both millennium3 and entropy are fakes or vaporware,as you like,and will never be released so...rest in peace.

Everything about this game seems awesome - except the "in sporadic development since 1998" bit! I am a massive fan of the original, I played PC elite to death 15 years ago, and I'm playing elite plus now. I, like thousands of others, yearn for a new elite.
Now please forgive me if I'm being ignorant, but isnt 7 years a long time for a game to be in development? I mean, are you going to be re-writing this game for eternity, or do you have even the roughest idea of when you will be finished?
If a game with these graphics and the gameplay to match elite were to come onto the market tomorrow, I'd be parted from my hard-earned cash faster than Hugh Grant in a brothel...

Games like *Frontier* are vital for life to continue :-)

Wolf:
Entropy is a made-up it wont ever get released.

oops the links stupid; heres the one:
http://binstar.com

idiot post:

Please excuse tomer for his ignorance and idiocy; he has just been recently banded from habnet for this kind of behaviour most agree he was a bit of a fanatic giving entropy a bad name.
We apologise.

Anyway, quit whatever you are doing it’s not important. Then you can spend all your time on M3, happy programming :)

mm.. u still alive, man?

The project is dead, as i might guess.
Through i am sure that lots of pepole who used to come hear (for project updates) have turned over Entropy (and i am one of them) through i see lots of improvments in Entropy then in Millenium 3.

If you're busy to complete it, why dont give out your source code so it can finally be completed

Could you at least post an alpha version on this site again? I thought that Alpha 4.3 was quite decent. Even an old version is better than none to try out. Thanks!

this looks amazing, it's unfortunate the last screens made available were from 2001, I hope this is no indication of lost interest, you are sitting on a goldmine and is worth finishing what you have already begun.. please!

Whoops, seems ActionTrip have taken it down, here's a non-broken link:
http://public.www.planetmirror.com/pub/3dfiles/games/millenn_a402.exe

The programmer is gonna kill me for this, as this demo is probably WAAAAAY out of date buuuut...
http://www.actiontrip.com/files/demos/millenium3futuresend.phtml

I'm a big fan of these types of games (including Noctis!), but the terrain engine in those screenshots is incredible, I can't wait to try this out. Keep up the good work!

Pleaaaaase keep hard working!
we all look for new pleasure space flight. you are the one who can make us come up. Biiig orgasmatik fantastik pictures, I can't wait no more, I need this.

Long time no news...the Millennium 3 project is still on the way? I downloaded an old demo version (it wasn't easy to find it) and graphics are very good...but the newer screenshot look even much better! So what's going on with it? Will it ever come out with a new demo version -at least- ?

I think it's time someone got a demo out of this.

No shit mate, this could set up money wise to do whatever you want... I know i'd pay £30 for anything near this quality!

WE NEED MORE FRONTIER STYLE GAMES!!

Great screenshots but i think its time to a demo or the complete game.something becouse i can see a great game and its depresive if i cant play it.
Thanks and im looking forward to have news of MILENIUM 3

This work look really really good...keep up with it and don't stop!

Dude,millennium 3 looks incredible!!!, ive been keeping an eye on your site for ages now, do you have any more news on its progress?

I looked at the screenshots and all I can really say is.. WOW!!!!!!! This looks so awesome! I can't wait for the next demo, good luck with the project! Elite and Frontier are two of the greatest games ever, and this certainly looks capable of living up to those standards. Excellent stuff!

Fantstic work on the terrain, cn hardly wait for more updates.

This is really awesome! I hope there will be a playable demo in the near future. =) Still playing Frontier - Elite 2 on an old dedicated elite-computer!

Mate,

This is fantastic stuff. You really should get some demos out there to show people what you have done.... Or videos..... Or better still articles, If you have achieved all this then tell people how you did it.

I work in the Games industry, currently for Sony, and Im telling ya.... this stuff is really good.

I can feel the work thats gone into it...... well done.!!!

Rob.
