5.518 Conveniences And QuickstartsNew build for AI War 2! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion#5.518_Conveniences_And_Quickstarts
This one has a number of small conveniences from Badger and Dismiss, ranging from being able to see your remaining required spire city counts in the interface, to more permissive placement of turrets when you are clicking in an area.
This one also has a number of new quickstarts from Badger, which set you up in some very interesting multi-faction situations. In particular, he notes his favorite is the "It's basically all the minor factions on one team against you" one, further noting "I feel like Dr. Frankenstein, but if he made 20 monsters and sent them to attack all those people who won't get off his lawn." I, for one, am happy to see just what happens when venturing onto that lawn.
CRCGamer has also made a number of improvements to balance, and fixed a few typos and similar. One of the big things you'll notice is more of the "improved strikecraft" variants appearing in Advanced Research Stations, which should be quite pleasant.
Dismiss has also been updating his Generator mod further, with a variety of map improvements.
And lastly, Badger has been further updating his Dyson Sidekick mod, with bugfixes, usability improvements, and clarity improvements.
More to come soon.
(And hey, did you know you can wishlist our upcoming title Heart of the Machine? https://store.steampowered.com/app/2001070/Heart_of_the_Machine/ We'll also be running a closed alpha on that later this year, so keep an ear out.)
Enjoy!
[ 2022-10-01 23:29:37 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.
