When will Nemesis be added?
« on: March 25, 2017, 10:44:42 pm »
This may have been mentioned in the past, but I am wondering when the nemesis will be added. Will it be near the end of alpha, or during early access, 1.0, or sometime post 1.0? I am wondering so I know when I can start learning how to hunt it down and kill it or, more probably, get killed by it.

The stretch goal gameplay content (Spire, Nemesis, Interplanetary Weapons) is all slated for during early access, probably the latter part of it.

Okay thanks, that gives me a better idea of how long I have to wait before I can start learning how to battle the Nemesis and possibly make the AAR one of the staff (not sure who) suggested in a way that I do in the AI War 2 discord channel, though not directly, he or she just said "That would make a good AAR" in response to a joking response to a joking thing they said, and I decided I might want to try doing it.

Okay, in case anyone actually cares (though it is doubtful that anyone does, might still be a useful reminder for me later on when I do it so I remember the context though I guess), I went back and found the conversation. Multiple people including me were joking about some sort of Arcen Staff summoning ritual and at one point during the conversation Dominus Arbitrationis joined in and it continued on like this.

Your soul is now property of Arcen. You will, however, survive the AI Uprising

Sorry, it already belongs to the Nemesis, that is why I plan on hunting it when the game comes out, so I can get it back.
Dominus Arbitrationis - 12/19/2016
That sounds like an AAR in the making

my soul was sold to the AI already
by you, actaully
xD

Your salvation was already ensured :smiley:

And I decided I might as well try it even though I never made an AAR before

At the risk of sounding foolish, what is an AAR?

After Action Report, you can find many on AI War Classic. They are pretty much logs of events on a playthrough of the game.

You might need to mod the Nemesis to look like a great white whale then!

No, I think trying to hunt it even to the point of using my Ark as bait in order to take my soul back would make work well enough. Only problem is that I have no idea how to really write AARs (I guess I can just read a few) and no idea how to show screenshots. I guess later on I might make a thread asking for advice.

I personally feel that my salvation is hard worked for, it's not easy being a servant of our great and terrible AI overlords...

Steam and AI War Classic both let you configure the keybind for screenshots.  I think they default to F11 and F12.

I know how to take them, I just have no idea how to share them in other places like the forums.

Right click game in library -> screenshots
select one -> click "view on disk"
