After a couple years of thinking about, 5 months of development and a lot of excitement and anxiety:

Thank you to all my friends who have contributed their time and effort to this project and helped it come to fruition, I could not of made this game without them.

Hello Admirals, Commodores, Captains, and every other kind of Master and Commander.

We are launching the second ship design contest for Rule the Waves 3.

Every person entering the contest and making a valid submission will receive a Matrix store voucher worth 15 USD. The contests winners will also receive a voucher worth 30 dollars. For those of you who were in the previous contest, we have made some minor revisions to the rules.

Contest Rules: Submit a picture of your ship with both its guns page and additional armaments page.




In addition to the images, give us a very short story why the ship is designed the way it is or it's battle history. This can be humorous, knowledgeable, or simply an entertaining yarn about your ship. We are not imposing a character limit this time but please keep it brief for the sake of our judges. You may submit in both categories but you can only be picked as a winner in one of them. Variant technology submissions are also acceptable.

Please only submit a ship designed in an unmodded version of the game.
Category 1 - Light Cruisers, any period and any configuration. If it is a legal design and says CL it will be sent to the judges for consideration. This is a very broad category and we are excited to see ship designs run the gamut from the Town-Class to the Bremen. Protected Cruisers do count as CL, and are accepted designs.

Category 2 - Heavy Cruisers, any period and any configuration. Same rules as the Light Cruisers, if it says CA and is a legal design, we will accept it for judging.

Players should submit their designs to http://rtw3contest@gmail.com
Now for our community judges, we are proud to announce they are:

DasTactic: If you ever needed a tutorial on how to play a Matrix game, DasTactic has probably done a video on it. From Distant Worlds to Shadow Empire Das's videos are a familiar sight in our wargaming community. This is Das's second round as a judge.

Drachinifel: Creator of the best naval guides out there. If you ever had even the slightest interest in a topic about warships, Drachinifel has you covered. From triple expansion boilers to the war galleys of antiquity, he has made a video on it. This is also Drach's second round as a judge.

Tortuga: Probably one of the best regular RTW3 Youtubers, Tortuga currently has a marathon 1890's Germany playthrough that is 55 episodes deep and growing. This is his first time as a judge.

Scores and winners are up to the judges, we aren't putting in any hard quantitative rules regarding what a ship is graded on, so expect some subjectivity. With that being said we have some very clever and knowledgable judges who will be looking for solid design work.

With a judge selecting a winner for each category, we will have six victorious designs. The winners will have their ships and stories broadcast when we announce the contest results with the judges on our livestream! The date and time of this stream will be announced when submissions close.

Submissions close February 12th, good luck and happy designing.

-Fix fog colors during time of day to match horizon color.
-Fix issue where time of day wouldn’t sync when first entering a multiplayer room.
-Fix missing time of day info on preflight screen and map.
-Fix issue where game could crash after pausing.
-Remove the cloud shadows option in graphics settings for now. Cloud shadows is too heavily intensive on CPU and the effect is not working properly at long distances.
-Remove yellow sphere bubbles at close distance when thermal visualization is active.

Cara used to be a quiet loner who loved rock music and had no interest in the outside world,
until the chaos of the CM-Shock outbreak awakened her new self.

#Discussions_QuoteBlock_Author

Cara is a very wild and unpredictable character, you never know what she's going to do.

Her quick and agile movements allow her to charge at enemies with ease,
She is capable of both direct attacks and strategic attacks to quickly turn the tide of battle.

Like her personality, Cara's style is all about going on the offense.
Use her brute strength and stealth to wreak havoc on the battlefield!

▷ Cara goes underground, traveling in stealth for a short period of time.
▷ When used again in stealth mode, multiple swords rise from the ground, dealing damage to enemies.
▷ Hit enemies have their movement speed reduced and take damage over time.




▷ Cara is supercharged to the extreme, allowing her to rampage over enemies for a period of time.
▷ Super armor is applied while in use and prevents Cara from being knocked back when hit or when enemies block her melee attacks.
▷ While on a rampage, Cara's melee attacks change to three consecutive combo attacks.
▷ Cara's ranged attacks change from pulling enemies to quickly moving towards them.





Cara is a character that specializes in ranged and 1v1 combat.

Most of her abilities, including her melee and special skills, are designed to require a high degree of control, making her difficult for beginners, but she can perform at her best with more experience.


With her long-range melee attacks, Cara's ranged attack draws enemies to her, where she can hit and then set them up for further combo attacks.

Her special ability and ultimate are also very aggressive, as are her stealth and super armor, making her one of the most flexible characters in combat situations.

Rampage over enemies with Cara's explosive attacks!

Hello everyone! The story prologue is available now.
You can play the demo until the end of Steam Next Fest.

Today we are releasing a small patch with some minor updates to the card effect pool. We added two new effects which we will use to design more cards. So far, there are only two cards that use these effects, but more will be coming soon.

Random Archetype Card - This effect will add random cards from your archetype to your combat deck. We modified Ponder on the Scholar to use this instead of the discard effect.

Max Upgrade - This effect will upgrade a card to the very top tier, instead of upgrading to the next tier like the normal upgrade effect. A Scholar card with this effect called Rapid Research, was added.

Many more cards with these effects will be added soon!

Also fixed a minor bug with reshuffling randomness in cases where the player doesn't have any quick cards.

Hello users.
We would like to share the development team's update direction.

1. We plan to make it possible for users to experience multiplayer play faster and enjoy cooperative play in the early stages. However, please note that the current balance may be difficult to enjoy in the early stages.

2. Currently, some pad usage is possible in gameplay, but it is not perfect. We will strive to make it possible to enjoy the game quickly through the pad.

3. We are considering feedback on speed play. We will try to provide an answer soon.

Have a great game.
Thank you.
