Beta 2.717 Tuning And Optional CaptureNew beta build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Multiplayer_Alpha_And_Beta#Beta_2.717_Tuning_And_Optional_Capture
You need to use the current_beta branch on Steam to play this one. This one makes a number of refinements to the last version, which had things like broken GCAs, etc. One reason among several that we went to the beta branch over the weekend.
The game is indeed far too easy right now, but the frigates are no longer so ridiculously overpowered as they were in the prior beta build. We need to do a few things to make the AI a bit more beefed-out to match all the large power improvements that players got in the last build, but we'll take this a few steps at a time.
We also fixed a number of bugs, a number of mods were updated by their authors, and capturing things like golems and arks can now be paused or even halted entire -- that's a pretty handy new power! You also no longer have to worry about Poltergeists in most games unless you get into a mega faction like the Fallen Spire.
Next build, expect further refinements and bugfixes, but also some notable buffs to the AI forces to give them a fighting chance against yours -- particularly in the early game. It's not super clear to me yet whether the new balance is still too strong in your favor in the late game, but in the early game it's no contest in favor of players. This is why we do a beta for a bit!
[ 2021-01-18 23:24:54 CET ] [ Original post ] AI War II is a grand strategic RTS against an overwhelming, inhuman enemy who has conquered the galaxy. The enemy has made only a single error: underestimating you.
You must steal as much technology as you can, and take enough territory to fortify your bases and launch your attacks. But every conquest you make turns the attention of the AI ever more in your direction... so choose your targets with care.
It's "a sequel to [Arcen's] enormo-space RTS AI War, which we called'one of this year's finest strategy games' back in 2009" (Tom Sykes, PC Gamer)
What's New?
We still have a lot of work to do on the game, and we're undergoing some major work with our beta testers before heading to Early Access, but a lot is already awesome:
- The game is crazy moddable.
- It's multithreaded to take full use of modern computers.
- The new 3D graphics are working out great.
- The UI has already been dramatically improved by the introduction of a tabbed sidebar in the main view, and streamlining of several other mechanics that felt very difficult in the past. More to come, there.
- We’ve got art for over 130 distinct units (not counting different mark levels), and there's more to come.
- We’ve got over 1500 lines of spoken dialogue from more than 25 actors, focusing primarily on the human side at the moment; we have a few hundred lines of AI-side taunts and chatter, some of which is recorded but just not processed yet.
- There are hundreds of high quality sound effects for a varied battlefield soundscape (with distance attenuation if you’re far away, and positional 3D audio if you’re down in the thick of it), all routed through a tuned mixer setup for optimal listening to all the various parts.
- We have a set of music from Classic that is over four and a half hours long, and the new music from Pablo is partly in, but mostly set to be mastered and integrated within the next week or two.
- There’s also a ton of map types, many of them new, and with a lot of sub-options to make them even more varied.
- And a whole lot more.
