Beta 2.718 Tutorial And Tech Fixes
[ 2021-01-19 23:35:47 CET ] [ Original post ]
New beta build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Multiplayer_Alpha_And_Beta#Beta_2.718_Tutorial_And_Tech_Fixes You need to use the current_beta branch on Steam to play this one. This one refines a lot of things from the non-beta branch (fixes to tutorials and the stale text bug), and also refines the techs interface a lot so that you see very accurately what you are getting, and more easily see color coding for upgrades at a glance. The starting support fleets also get more engineers. The AI still needs some buffs in the beta branch right now, but so far things seem to be feeling good on the player end, so I'm really happy about that. Rather than doing adaptive unlocks in the coming weeks, there's a new plan I have in mind for some new hacks that will give you more control over the RNG without giving you COMPLETE control over it. Basically this disrupts the existing game flow less, and because of how much more widely people are unlocking techs as it is with the new balance curves, adaptive unlocks would likely have just led to too-few metas for playing the game. My two goals have been to increase the number of viable metas, and to prevent you from getting hosed by the RNG. The balance curves took us farther on the second goal than I expected, so I'm adapting my plans based on feedback. Thanks to everyone playing the beta branch!

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.
