For those who might've missed the news bulletin, here's a little about the new version. In fact, other than Apollo I believe that I'm the only person to have played the current internal beta (which even THAT doesn't include EVERY change)

There are some major gameplay changes in store. I want to tell you about all of them, but at the same time I don't want to spoil the inevitable surprise. So here goes:

NEXUS will soon become a real force to contend with, with two new units being added to his already impressive arsenal. And let me tell you, they are FEARSOME. Also, his self-healing ability is much more effective, and wait 'til you see what's happened to our old friend the Terror Drone...it's like a whole new weapon. But I'm not telling you what's changed. So HA :blink:

Fans of the Allies will find their lot much more challenging in future. New alterations will spell doom for complacency. With such awesome quality weapons, one can expect things to get a bit tighter in your pocket. As the overall dominant side before, the changes have been put in place to level things up. So don't worry, nothing's been axed, and changes are not detrimental to the cause, but they will give the others a chance.

And of all the changes, Freedom League have come up winners too, with no negative changes of note. Mantis Tanks are now a force to be reckoned with, and no longer shall they fall so easily...these fanatics have begged, borrowed and stole up to now to stay on top, but they're more than capable of keeping those weapons on the battlefield thanks to their new additions. Oh...and beware t3h Garg.

That's not all. Bases are tougher, the AI even sneakier with more tricks up its sleeve and more I would love to say but can't. I've probably told you too much already.

There are other changes I've not said, and the ones I have told you I've kept brief, but that's just the beginning.

Soon, the Storm will rage once again, and all will become abundantly clear :p

Message Ends.

more like the unit that created them was debated on, garg is the freaky super mutant creature a player cant control but thankfully they wont attack you when you create them and randomly act on their own to harass enemy or multiply their numbers, so very useful distraction/menace unit freedom league can unleash on its foes. :p

and yeah the Infector unit making them is in. :blink:

Okay, the release is taking a little longer than Apollo anticipated, but I assure you you won't be disappointed.

I recently played with the second new addition to the NEXUS arsenal in a prototype state. Codenamed the 'Wraith', you'll rue the day you ever dared to face off against the mighty AI.

Other balance tweaks and a few bug fixes have been implemented also. Beware. You will also find that the AI uses these new killing machines just as much as you, and as we already know the AI is merciless.

In other news, Music Pack 2 is being currently decided upon. Apollo is one serious perfectionist. Holding back release isn't always a bad thing, though. Better it be a bit late off the bat than flawed.


[bragtaunt] Ahhh, it feels so good to know secret info. Those units...you wish you had them. You really, really do. [/bragtaunt] ;)

I suggest that as punishment for spammers ;) *looks scathingly at lurker* their IP addresses should be blocked/prevented from downloading the new version when it is released. *evil cackles*

I actually didn't know he had one ;) I know of the Shredder...but currently NEXUS doesn't have an anti-infantry 'Tank' as such...

Well, not until the new version :mellow:

New RS Version Almost Upon You

How almost? :w00t:

ARGUMENT FROM CREATION, a.k.a. ARGUMENT FROM PERSONAL INCREDULITY (I)
(1) If evolution is false, then creationism is true, and therefore God exists.
(2) Evolution can't be true, since I lack the mental capacity to understand it; moreover, to accept its truth would cause me to be uncomfortable.
(3) Therefore, God exists.
