  1. Afaik, all the people who pre-ordered before Desura was in use, like you and myself, have "standard" orders on Desura as the premium download didn't exist when the conversion happened.

    There's no difference between them, and if there are any extra rewards we should be eligible for (outside of the forum badge), Chris has a nice big list of people who were in before Desura.

    also, for release, desura won't be mandatory, users should be able to register it on steam, so really, the limited edition has no technical value.

    too bad it's not available yet anyway...

  2. We're aiming to have a basic AI model in place for Build V9. Unfortunately I'm not very good with AI so I just got a specialised AI programmer and told him to code it. I'll have to see what he comes out with, but fingers crossed it'll be something good.

    I know about it at a high level, but essentially the idea is that we'll hack some kind of basic multiplayer mode into the game and play a few games between the two of us with one person controlling the aliens and one person controlling the humans, and we'll base the AI model on how the humans play the aliens.

    are creating creating some sort of action => reaction patterns?

    i have a friend who was lead dev on cycling manager and he told me they used this kind of behavior table for the ai.

    i was said that this is kind of cheating, but often it gives better results in a controlled environnement than a more advanced ai which can be a huge investment for initialy poor results (i can take as exemple CA who supposedly redid the ai for empire total war and ended with some half baked result which they admitted but never corrected)

    i guess what count is having a good result, not having a smart ai just for the purpose of it.
