I think they DID mention that there would be space-related features, but NOT a space screen (like in CTP1)

But thanks for the link, anyway....I love that Moray Striker.

I think that you can not see the space place but maybe you can get units from space or maybe you can only build space cities on top of the land cities. The productoin, food and trade just add with the stuff of the already existing city.

I think it was best summed up in one of my favorite movies:

BOY: Do not try and bend the Space. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.
NEO: What truth?
BOY: There is no Space.

I may have misquoted the movie a little, but you get the point... :-)

Um....thanks.

ok... Maybe will just keep guessing on our own!

Since I was under the impression that all space features, except for the "modified" space plane had been removed, I too would like to hear Activision's explanation of the Space Colony.

There's no need to keep guessing. The Space Colony unit was a remnant that was not being used in the game and has since been removed. As I've said in two other posts, there is no Space in CTP2.

Thanks man!!! You Activision dudes are awesome!
But how would the space plne work? And even more important, what's an illuminati?

well just keep making good games like ctp2 and tony hawk.

Wow Pyaray, first your nic's an obscure ref to The Dreaming City and now the Illuminati! I like the way you think dude! How about a Melnibone vs The Young Kingdoms scenario? How about a scenario with secret societies, subterranean races, aliens among us and supersecret government agencies all fighting for control of the Earth?? Just an idea...I'd do it myself but I have no skills or talent...

I seriously doubt we could get the necessary licenses, but it's an amusing thought.
