AI War Official 7.0 Released!
« on: June 17, 2013, 10:20:20 am »
(Crossposted from this blog post)

This one is 7.0!  And only 7.0!  I literally only changed the version number!  Why am I shouting like this were a TF2 Update!

Anyway, 7.0 is out in patch form now, and we're working behind the scenes on installers and some other stuff you can probably guess at.

Update: 7.001 released to fix a bug with the fix to the scrapping-lightning-torpedoes-for-money exploit, and a few other things.

Enjoy!

This is a standard update that you can download through the  in-game updater itself, if you already have 4.000 or later. When you launch the game, you'll see the notice of the update having been found if you're connected to the Internet at the time.  If you don't have 4.000 or later, you can download that here.

Cool! Does that also mean that today is the official expansion release too?  I've been thinking of going back to an AI game sometime in the near future.

Needs more *PROPERTY DAMAGE!*, or comics to be a TF2 update :)

Trust me, a lot of property was harmed in the production of this update!

But yea, lacking in the comic department, sadly.

We're working on that, sorry about the confusion on the transition!

I'm legitimately really excited to see what the next expansion will be. This one's really good, lots of cool features I could really get behind, the alpha worked so well. It's like doubled my gameplay time with AI War, so far, which is pretty good. I mean, not as great as it could be if, say, I had like 1000 hours. But man, 40-50 hours for a $5-valued expansion is pretty good.

I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

Yeah, this year we're almost doubling our game library:

Interesting history:

2009: AI War
2010: TZR, Tidalis, CoN
2011: LotS
2012: Valley 1, AS
2013: Valley 2, Shattered Haven, Skyward Collapse, VotM, Nihon no Mura, Bionic Dues, AI War Exp 6, SC Exp 2

So, yeah.  8 products in all planned for this year (4 of which are already out), whereas we had 7 products prior to this year.  Okay, so more than doubling our library, looking at full games plus expansions.

In terms of full games prior to this year it was  just 3, whereas this year has already seen the release of 3 games and will see the release of one more.

I definitely like this better than working for 15 months on one giant project (Valley 1), to say the least!
