5.602 Planetcrasher

New AI War 2 build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion_Part_II#5.602_Planetcrasher There were a solid pass of bugfixes, my favorite of which is that if you crash a planet into the AI homeworld, it now properly kills them. Hence the name of the update. The Dyson Sidekick mod got a bunch of reworked units from Zeus, and the Dark Zenith can get its Resources from killing enemy ships, allowing you to manage your economy more closely. These changes do break save compatibility with savegames using that mod, so if you're using a modded version of the game, you can use the most_recent_stable branch to continue until the next patch. But it sounds like this is worth restarting for, with that mod. To be clear, unmodded games have no issues with save compatibility, and mods other than the sidekicks one also don't have any issues. Enjoy! Heart of the Machine private testing is ongoing, and you can sign up on our discord if you're interested. It's also going to have a public demo very shortly, so be sure to check that out and/or wishlist the game. ALSO, finally, for the first time in a year, the store page has been fully refreshed with updated graphics and visuals, and a killer new trailer: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2001070/Heart_of_the_Machine/ There's also some cool coverage of the game emerging around now, such as this one from Splattercatgaming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jLw0TgJ31Y

  • 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.
