PR v1.1 Release Date Set!
#1
Posted 07 December 2008 - 10:49 AM
While the previous release in v1.0 introduced our unique system of space combat, v1.1 is best described as a complete reinvention thereof. We've improved upon literally every aspect of the game, from Skirmish to Galactic Conquest, Space to Land. A dead galaxy has been transformed into one pulsing with a life of its own, its inhabitants caught up in a war greater than themselves. Half a century of tech progression has been rebalanced, with its upgrades focused on creating the most distinct units possible. The very character of space battles has changed for the better through numerous subtle tweaks designed to improve the overall enjoyment factor. Version 1.1 is, in short, a whole new game, so I urge you to check it out in two weeks!
In the meantime, we still have a surprising number of game-defining changes to announce, so stay with us.

Its amazing how such a small mod team can be so organised.

Thank You guys for the promise of one of the greatist mods. I probably won't be going to sleep that night

This is increadable...

It's probably because it's a small team. We all know our roles, and what the other team members are doing.
The campaigns are also 98% done (all save the player starting forces for the GFFA sub-campaigns) and that has helped on the final deadline.

I mean in addition to the Thrawn Campaign and Operation Shadow Hand, that sort of thing.
Not this time. The GFFA campaign has taken 2 months to complete and we have added over 100 new ships and a lot more land stuff for this campaign alone. I believe there are plans to fill more gaps in the timeline, but as you can see, these campaigns take a lot of time - and PR is still coding all of the stuff we have invented for this campaign, let alone doing all the other things that need work!
GFFA should keep you VERY busy for a long time. It is a new campaign. It's quite different from all the others.
Personally, I would appreciate all you fans to give me feedback on this campaign - I'll learn and make the next one even better!
To this end I will be asking PR to put a new section in the forums once we release, probably with the title 'Campaign Suggestions' or 'Campaign Feedback', limited to comments about the campaigns themselves.
There is so much in this campaign that we won't be able to tell you before the release (that would spoil the surprise) that I'm sure I will be answering questions like 'I saw a strange ship on [planet name] - what is it??' or 'why are there lots of [ship-name] on planet X' about the campaign for months.

I can do a sticky just for that. Adding a new forum would require an admin though.To this end I will be asking PR to put a new section in the forums once we release, probably with the title 'Campaign Suggestions' or 'Campaign Feedback', limited to comments about the campaigns themselves.
We are holding back announcing or otherwise talking about some very fun concepts - well, fun for us ! Think easter eggs, but more grandiose.There is so much in this campaign that we won't be able to tell you before the release (that would spoil the surprise) that I'm sure I will be answering questions like 'I saw a strange ship on [planet name] - what is it??' or 'why are there lots of [ship-name] on planet X' about the campaign for months.
