Hello Executives, at last the version 1.2 patch is out. The graphics have been updated to make use of the latest lighting engine within Unity and a lot of bugs have been fixed that were ruining the game.

Here is a list of changes:
  • Better graphics across the board using latest Unity graphics engine.
  • CEO now dies when coming into contact with water.
  • 64-bit
  • Missiles now have a 60 second cool down timer to stop spamming
  • AI CEO will now shoot you if you enter the office.
  • Lightning gun now costs more and takes longer to research.
  • Upgraded the research tree to look a bit nicer.
  • Transport ships being blown up won’t break the game.
  • Can now select unit using its tactical icon.
  • Sticky keys no longer causes run issues
  • Planes on Cindar should fly about better.
  • Red blob does not appear in MP when targeting with long range weaponry
  • Added Pylon Cap to stop pylon spamming
  • Sorted out corridor loop issue.
  • Lowered health of tricruiser
  • Raised health of Gigantilator
  • High end weapons have now had their research times increased.
  • Increased starting power to 40 to give you a better start.
  • Various weapons have been rebalanced.
  • Guns shouldn't come out backwards.
  • Gigantilator Emblem rotates with torso
  • Multi rockets no longer hurt your team mates.
If you have been testing it please make sure to opt out of the beta build.

A tiny fraction of you may be concerned about the 64-bit conversion, bottom line is that to get all these great new features and less crashes it needs to be 64-bit (it's the year 2017). If you are somehow still running at 32-bit then don't worry you will be play the game but only at version 1.199.92. You will know you are on the latest update when you see a different start background.

I understand there are still a few more minor issues that need addressing but they will come later.

Thank you to those who continue to support the game, your messages really cheer me up and spur me on to fix things and complete the currently worked on sequel.

One final thing, as much as I would love to add you all as friends I unfortunately cannot accept random invites.

All the best.

Little fix today.
  • Buggies and tanks should hug the terrain much better and not go under it.
  • Personal Transporter now renamed to Troop Transport.
  • If you are driving a vehicle, you should now be able to drive through the Energy Barrier.

As always if you have any issues please let me know in the bug section and I will take a look.

I have been toying with upgrading EA1 to 64-bit to help improve game play, will this cause any issues for anyone?

Still working on Executive Assault 2 and will have a website up and coming with all the info you need about it (had my first multiplayer game last night with me as CEO running around the station while my mate was on the bridge of his Starship blasting it with lasers).

Happy holidays everyone!

Hi Executives,
This patch is mainly to address a few little issues with the game
  • Updated a few research icons
  • Cluster rocket deals damage again
  • Cluster rocket now takes 4 minutes to research
  • Reduced Cluster rocket damage.
  • When in FPS mode you should no longer go flying into the air, i have tested this a multitude of times so if its still happening please let me know.
  • You now die if you fall into the lava on Cindar.
  • An update to Unity should help with stability.

I know a few of you are looking for something exciting from 1.2 which i know might have disappointed a few of you when I announced that it was actually going to be a new game, but I hope you will get behind me on that one as its going to be amazing! I will of course carry on updating Executive Assault, just remember there's over 140 techs in the game

I think a few new maps are needed, if you have any suggestions please let me know.

The next patch will most likely go straight to straight to 1.2 else its just going to start looking silly.

I am also aware of a few network problems when people disconnect so will be looking at improving that in the next patch along with a few UI fixed, also I believe there is an issue with the gate and the energy barrier.

If there are any more issues or questions please don't hesitate to post about them and as always please post your bugs to the bug section and I will take a look.

Cheers
