▶

3/24/2015 - DG2 March Steam Update - PC, Mac only (SteamOS version coming very soon)

Gameplay:

New Game Type: Classic Open. Classic Open introduces the original DG scoring model to DG2. It is available for all single player missions and modes. No medals are awarded in Classic Open.
Tower Limit Mode Fix: Fixed bug in which boost towers could automatically sell out from underneath a tower in the middle of upgrading.
Strategy Camera Added: Edge scrolling camera for single player can be toggled on / off using Shift+C or can be set to be the default by adding “-freecamera” to the Steam launch options (library, right-click->properties, set launch options)

Stability:

Fixed top ten crash bugs responsible for majority of remaining reported game crashes.
Fixed a significant number of OpenGL rendering issues for Mac (and soon SteamOS) improving both quality and performance rendering
Fixed Mac launcher race condition where launcher might not appear while Steam is still initializing launch of game
Fixed multiple DG Architect crash bugs
Fixed DG Architect block thumbnails not appearing

Leaderboard Validity:

Added ability to remove scores from leaderboards that aren’t possible to achieve in an unaltered game session
Removal of invalid scores will take place some days after update release

User Created Content (UCC) Tools Enhancement:

New UCC file format – must have update to download new UCC maps
Enabled UCC maps to have story mode leaderboards
Enabled UCC script asset creation with DG Architect and game loading of that script
Enabled UCC script assets to be packaged in Steam Workshop upload
Stopped UCC map creation process from creating multiple leaderboard versions for the same map
Mac: Users can load custom levels now. Custom levels are looked for here: /Users//Library/Application Support/Steam/userdata//221540/local/DG2/

Usability

Restored Mouse button bindings to match system settings in Windows

Defense Grid 2 Content - Linux [2.22 G]

Defense Grid 2, DG2, is the highly-anticipated sequel to Hidden Path Entertainment’s 2008 Defense Grid: The Awakening. Setting the bar as the definitive tower defense game, Defense Grid 2 introduces new worlds and threats to test your tower placement strategies. With a bold new look, a compelling single-player campaign, and the addition of new game modes, online player-versus-player and multiplayer co-op, every play-through brings fun new opportunities and challenges.

DG2 comes with a story campaign featuring 21 stunning maps, dynamic level movement, an expanded story and cast of characters, hundreds of challenge mode experiences, new multiplayer modes, a procedurally driven audio score and the ability for players to build their own levels. DG2 also introduces players to DG Architect on the PC, a level creation tool set connected to Steam Workshop where players can create their own unique levels to share and possibly even sell if selected.

DG2 for the PC was funded in part by Dracogen, a private investor after a 2012 Kickstarter campaign funded the original game's DLC, Defense Grid: Containment. DG2 is developed by Hidden Path Entertainment and published by 505 Games.
