So I have had some great reviews, most notably from space game junkie. I have been watching him play quite a bit and learned a lot from it.
Sooo I also have had my first non press review which was terrible :-/. But after chatting with said reviewer and listening to other criticism I have learned my tutorials really need expanding.
Theres quite a few mechanics I thought people would figure out really quickly that they just seem to miss(at first at least).
I cant do any updates right now, but will be able to in about 3 weeks. These are some features I plan to add.
* several extra tutorial sections to explain a few mechanics.
* a lander practice zone.
* some alternative control modes for the lander section.
* I also plan to get some help with my typos.
For now here's a few pointers for things that may not be clear:
* the game is paused while in the inventory.
* the game saves automatically when you exit through the options screen, available in the top left of the inventory screen.
* you do not need to land on deralicts you can jump right out and leave your ship hanging in space.
* f1 will give you a key map.
* lock on weapons do not fire automatically. Use right mouse button.
* drop weapons like mines and drop turrets also dont fire on auto. Use secondary fire, right mouse button.
* theres a medals screen on the main menu it tells you what you need to do to get them.
* When you sell an item the thing that comes out of your ship is a selling drone it costs 30 fuel and 1 big scrap to make.
* if enemies are too hard just hyperdrive away from them.
* using the lander you chan change you thrust in cruise control from 0 to 100
Some of this info is already in tooltips and tutorial sections but seems to confuse people.
If anybody needs help please put it up on the discussion board and I will do my best to help.
We want to make sure that you are aware that this Friday, at 7 AM CEST, there will be scheduled downtime for approximately 1 hour! During this maintenance, Governor of Poker 3 will be inaccessible!
We appreciate your patience and understanding! Thanks!
We've got a new Starbase feature video! This one focuses on the various handheld weapons and the gunfighting in Starbase, which has its own special quirks related to zero-gravity movement and the fully destructible environment.
As spaceships are also a huge part of Starbase, you can seamlessly transition from a spaceship fight to a gunfight. You can fight on ships while the ships are moving, jump off from one ship to another or board the enemy’s ship and seize control!
A hotfix has been patched in to [beta] 7 fixing some critical bugs. These include things like some enemies ignoring the player and being unable to leave certain dungeons (load screen stuck).
Thanks to all the new and returning Venturers for reporting these issues, be sure to report any others you find on Steam or Discord! If it is a critical bug I will fix it in the shortest time possible, if it is a minor bug I will patch a fix in the next week!
Also, I will finally have a new Linux and Mac build available next week!
That's it for now, have a wonderful day! Lavidimus
The internal testing of gameplay changes has finally begun! Almost all of our team is hard at work collecting and processing the data so we can refine and perfect the changes to Warlander's combat. Of course, we will share the most relevant takes from the tests - possibly even a video of the new gameplay once we are satisfied.
So, stay tuned for our next devblog! Until then, we wanted to share one of Warlander's wallpapers with all of you - called "Bound by the Blade." Just right click on it and save it wherever you like.
Please wishlist us on Steam, follow us on Twitter and Facebook if you haven’t already and come talk to us on Discord!
The 5th week of the Zula Europe Pro League 2019 Summer Split in which we have been able to enjoy very interesting matches since several teams had a lot at stake has already taken place.
- Black Claw vs ACTINA PACT
This confrontation has been without any doubt the most intense of all the Zula Europe Pro League 2019 Summer Split. The first match took place in China. The start of the match has been very intense since none of the teams gave up. We reached the swap of roles with a result of 5 - 4 for ACTINA PACT. Miketsh and v1lczek were the most important players of their teams so far with 10 and 11 kills respectively. During the ACTINA PACT defense turn, Black Claw had a hard time in the early rounds, but they finally concentrated enough to force the overtime. Miketsh and v1lczek were again the top scorers of their teams with 22 and 21 kills respectively. We needed 3 overtimes to know the winner of the first map that finally was ACTINA PACT with a result of 19 - 17. Special mention must be made about the performance of Miketsh who got a KDA of 2.18 (42/22/6) being the player with more kills of his team. The second map has been Wedding Hall. The team that started attacking was ACTINA PACT. Everything was very close all the time and we reached the swap of roles with a result of 5 - 4 for Black Claw. On the part of Black Claw everything was very well-balanced since SELISTIC, FUNIOK, 4193726 and Miketsh got 7 kills each, however, on the part of ACTINA PACT, Oscar was the leader with 11 kills. Later, in Black Claw's attack turn, everything was again very close and the match had to be decided in the second overtime. ACTINA PACT was the team that reached the victory thanks to the great performance of YouBreak that obtained a KDA of 1.52 (28/23/7).
- NETopery vs X6TENCE
The first match took place in Favela, where the bats danced samba really well and managed to win easily. NETopery started attacking and managed to reach the swap of roles with a result of 8 - 1. Incredible left sample of its great quality in the 3rd round getting 4 kills in the blink of an eye. Finally, NETopery closed the game with a favorable result of 10 - 2. The second map was Old Town. On this map X6TENCE seemed to wake up from its lethargy reaching a score of 8 - 8. But finally, NETopery closed the game with their victory by 10 - 8. Synergy was the top scorer of X6TENCE with a KDA of 1.38 (17/13/ 1) and Incredible got a KDA of 2.00 (16/11/6). The NETopery player has made clear again why he is still the current MVP of the Zula World Cup having led his team in both maps.
- Warthox Esport vs Mercury Esports
In this match there was a lot at stake since both teams had the same points in the ranking. The first map of this match has been Old Town. During his attack Warthox dominated and managed to reach the swap of roles with a favorable result of 7 - 2 with Lightus as top scorer. In his later turn of attack, Mercury Esports carried out good strategies, but they were not enough to avoid the defeat with a result of 10 - 3. We must mention the clutch 1 against 4 that Swampie carried out in the 11th round. The player with most kills was Lightus who got a KDA of 3.16 (17/6/2). The second map was Wedding Hall. Warthox dominated the map and got the victory with a result of 10 - 4 despite some great plays from Putak in the 3rd round who 4 kills and Swampie in the 9th round who also got 4 kills. The player with more kills was Lightus again with a KDA of 2.42 (17/7/0).
- PRIDE vs For The Win Esports
In this match PRIDE has once again made clear that they want to be at the top of the ranking and that their players have formed a very solid block. The first map was China. In this map we have seen the first 10 - 0 of the league, in this case favorable to PRIDE. We have to mention a couple of plays carried out by mtzn1 that got 4 kills in the 3rd round and, in the 5th round, he showed his cold blood and got a murder with his melee weapon, the Karambit. The top scorer of the match was mtzn1 who got an impressive KDA of 8.00 (15/2/1). The second map was Old Town. It seemed that For The Win woke up a bit and managed to score 3 rounds before falling defeated with a result of 10 t- 3. Again, and as we are used to, PRIDE players used very well the grenades on this map. The top scorer of this match was luxon1337 who got a KDA of 5.25 (18/4/3).
