New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion#5.006_End_To_Spontaneous_Combustion More cleanup and fixes, and this also puts an end to the “my ships spontaneously combust sometimes” bug that has been around in rare reports for the last month, and then got more common with the influx of new players. Big thanks to Badger for figuring out the solution on that one.…
New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion#5.005_Threat_Properly_Threatens Lots of fixes, and some balance tweaks. The threat counter shows properly again, which is probably the most notable fix in here. That was a recent regression. The second most notable fix is that some of the AI Eyes and similar in DLC3 no longer are quite so good at taking your…
New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion#5.004_Misc_Polish Just various polish and bugfixes, nothing too earth shattering (hooray!). There’s still more to fix and polish what with the major new influx of players in the DLC3 code and multiplayer and so forth, but in general we’re really pleased how clean things have been. More to come soon.Enjoy!
First of what is probably two hotfix builds for today: https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Post_Completion#5.002_Venators_Optional This one makes the scary new Venators from DLC3 optional, unless you are playing on Challenger mode or higher. Thanks to Badger on that. This also lets you cycle through ships with unspent modules by repeatedly clicking that notification, which is really nice. Thanks…
The end of any era is always the start of a new one. First of all, we have a lovely new DLC for your perusal. The Neinzul Abyss is hands-down the largest and most impressive piece of DLC that we’ve ever made, and it’s larger than a lot of standalone games. Its store page explains…
New build, here on DLC-Eve! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:The_Final_Cycle#4.995_DLC3_Release_Candidate_1 A number of bugfixes and balance tweaks, and then more last-minute refinement to DLC3. Big thanks to Badger, Zeus, CRCGamer, StarKelp, and Tom.Prince on this one. Also another heaping helping of spelling and grammar fixes thanks to ptarth! Tomorrow is the day when DLC3 finally drops! We’re really excited…
New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:The_Final_Cycle#4.025_Lightning_Conduction This one is packed with bugfixes, and also gives a random color to beacon factions so that they don’t get confused with other factions when you enable one (you can then further change their color as you wish). Some of these bugfixes are for multiplayer, others are for Ark Empire, a variety…
New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:The_Final_Cycle#4.024_Graveyard_Digger This one has a variety of bugfixes, including one big performance fix for games that last longer than half an hour to a few hours in a single session. It’s entirely possible that this also has solved the fairly rare deadlock that folks were running into at times. In DLC3, the Wights…
New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:The_Final_Cycle#4.023_Beacon_Expansiveness A bunch of new factions are now summonable via beacons, largely thanks to Daniexpert. This includes some returning favorites from old pre-4.0 beacons, but also includes new factions that have never had a beacon before. Previously it was a major performance drain to have a lot of beacon factions included, so we…
New build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:The_Final_Cycle#4.021_Scourge_Of_A_Beacon Been missing the ability to call the scourge via beacon? Well, that’s returned, courtesy of Badger. There are… a metric ton of small and midsize improvements to the base game and DLC3, and a couple of others for DLC1 and 2 in here as well. Big props to Badger and Zeus for…
