Neuer Patch:

NEW FEATURES:

(Player Request): Added a command bar in lower left which shows selected units. Can be hidden or unhidden, and units can be selected from within the group by selecting the sub-group.
(Player Request): Players can send money to friends playing on the same team. Can use the button in the upper right corner to bring up a special UI for this, or just click any allied unit or structure and click the “Insert” key.
(Player Request): Players can now ping the map with offensive and defensive pings. Default hotkeys for this are Alt-G and Ctrl-Alt-G, but we are looking to set these to something else in the future.
All player names are now shown in the upper right corner (used to be just players with nukes). Can be turned on/off/minimized by hitting the F5 key.
Added social buttons for Facebook and Twitter.


GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS:

Co-Op campaign mission 1 and 2 difficulty were adjusted to make them more reasonable (especially for the first two co-op missions!)
All Co-Op campaign missions: AI no longer attempts to kite making it easier for players to use harvesters to crush AI infantry easier.
Added support for local player crate effects with HUD voice notifications.
Experimental audio fix for ASUS Xonar shutdown audio issues.
Changed video default to borderless fullscreen windowed. This will solve problems for some new players. This affects everyone, so just adjust back to your previous settings if you prefer.
Added check for "Enter" press while in the password entry dialog.
When hosting while logged into GOG, the hostname field now shows the proper GOG name not the computer name.
Fix for unpowered turret animations playing when not supposed to.
Added additional error messages for when joining a custom match fails.
Better handling of unicode player names.
Fix for nuke timer display showing correctly after a loaded save game.
Fix for unit production time being cut when transferring production between factories while unpowered.
Updated faction UI colors to be more legible in chat interface.

Außerdem kommt heute, wenn sie nicht schon freigeschaltet wurde, eine Demo raus. Diese enthält das Tutorial und die ersten 4 Missionen.

Ich finds toll das Petro so fleissig patcht. Aber die neue Fraktion und 2-3 Maps sind langsam bitter nötig ^^

2. Fraktion kommt am Samstag Es ist

8-Bit Armies: Guardians is an additional military faction for the original 8-Bit Armies Real-Time Strategy game. Guardians includes new units and some additional structures to play with in both Multiplayer and Skirmish modes with the AI or your online friends. The additional faction is FREE at the moment for all 8-Bit Armies players and is forward and backward compatible with all previously released and future content for the game.

The Guardians Faction includes some common-use structures and units in addition to these new weapons of destruction...

Grenade Infantry: Throws deadly AOE grenades against ground targets for maximum damage
Sniper Infantry: Long-range infantry that can stealth while not firing on ground and air units
Rocket Car: Fast scout vehicle which is also useful against air and ground forces
APC: Unarmed infantry transport that can hold up to 10 units safely
Scorch Tank: Fires a deadly cone of fire at a target. When destroyed, causes a huge fireball that damages nearby enemies
Spectre Tank: Light tank unit with stealth capability. Reveals only when attacking ground-based foes
Siege Artillery: Longer distance artillery unit with a more focused impact damage radius
Anti-Air Drone: Autonomously hurls itself against enemy air units in the vicinity, exploding on contact
Heavy Drone: Heavy-weapons aircraft with both rocket and machine-gun capability which is good in all types of situations
Satellite Uplink: Controls the Orbital Cannon super-weapon to snipe units and structures from space with multiple rounds
Cannon Turret: Great defensive structure against enemy vehicles
Scorch Turret: Very effective defense against infantry units attempting to infiltrate the player's base

Im Discord betteln alle für den Zugang zum Beta Testen... Die flippen fast aus ^^
Freue mich so auf NOD
Es fehlt eigentlich nur noch ein Replay system, dann wäre das Grundgerüst mal ziemlich abgedeckt.
