Beta 2.734 BugfixesNew beta build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Multiplayer_Alpha_And_Beta#Beta_2.734_Bugfixes
You need to use the current_beta branch on Steam or GOG to play this one. If you have trouble with it, there is a most_recent_stable_beta, now, too.
More stuff to come later, but this is basically just a selection of bugfixes that needed to come out sooner than later. Thanks to all the folks who tested the new stuff and found these!
The AI Shield Generators mod by cml has also been updated to be in the new format that hacks use in the game now.
The FRS ships had a number of bugs with them last version, but one thing that has been clarified (as well as being fixed up) is that now their bonuses DO affect the flagship, except for the speed bonus. The tooltips make all of that clear, and the turbo raiders can be in fleets that are +1 larger since they don't help the flagship. This means that ultima bombers pair GREAT with a golem or ark and a collection of frigates, for instance.
The starting defensive fleets have also been toned down, as a balance item in this release. For whatever reason, they wound up otherwise being about 2x as powerful as all other fleets and from what you get from a GCA, etc. Now they're consistent with everything else.
The rest of the stuff was actual bugs, with interface/display issues, FRS mechanics, and some extra officer fleets seeding.
[ 2021-02-12 18:09:43 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.
