[alien fleet limits..]

No need for fleet limits as long as there's enough ammo to go around.

[Project Status Side]

As a long time game buyer/follower I would never look to a game's official site for regular news/updates. It's one of the first things you learn.

[do stunned aliens count towards stat increase.]

Stunned? Stunned!? Son, we don't "stun" aliens in this organisation.

[Steam early access: worth it?]

Buyer beware: http://steamcommunity.com/app/221020/discussions/

[Reworking stun]

Maybe bleeding could cause stun so more heavily wounded soldiers have a chance to "pass out"?

[Steam Winter sale?]

The old forum sewers.

[National Geographic did WHAT?]

I don't see why Aliens can't have nations and matters related to geography, you gotta believe man.

This is NG's schedule now:

-Trucks/Cars/Bikes

-Construction Machines

-Aliums

-Pawnstars/Storage

-Truckdrivers

-Hillbillies

-Jesus/Illuminaty/Knights Templar

-Lumberjacks

-Aliums

At least it's not History Channel.

[New Mission End Screen (feedback / opinions welcome)!]

Excellent.

Maybe I'm shallow and I hate pressuring people but please don't let the wonderful art go to waste Chris.

[Has everyone had the sniffles recently?]

Summer! Summer!! Dis shizzle ain't right!!!@@@@@$@%&^&%*^uy&$@$!$^@%@%

Looks like Knight's mind has been devastated by disease. Time for Comissar to administer the "final rites".

[Other awesome, retro styled games]

I'm knocking myself out on 'Might and magic X Legacy' at the moment. What a absolutely blinding game, 100% pure octane addiction.

I ended up really enjoying it as well. Avoided most of the problems others have reported as well.

[Has everyone had the sniffles recently?]

It's summer here in OZ and I've been sneezing like a crazed human......

Must be all the pollen.

[Has everyone had the sniffles recently?]

Have you noticed anything unusual Max? People not being allowed to leave the area? Men dressed in hazmat outfits? people mutating in the street? Little things that most people would miss?

[Has everyone had the sniffles recently?]

I had a cold (or something that looked like it) something like 3 weeks ago. Even after all the other symptoms subsided I continued coughing for like 2 weeks but I have a history of that.

I blame chem trails and Muricans being in cahoots with the NWO.

[Steam Winter sale?]

Best to raise the price to 100$ and then sell it at an 80% discount, it'd sell like crazy. Also remove female soldiers, soviet weapons and t4 weapons from the game and release them later one by one as "free" dlc. Gamers would idolize you.

[whats goldhawk's next project?]

FPS games are too indie and underground these days. It's gonna be Angrynauts, an iOS exclusive.

[whats goldhawk's next project?]

Well, there's Legends of Eisenwald. It has party based tactical combat similar to Disciples but with more characters and each unit has its own inventory and skill tree. There's also some form of castle management. You move around like in King's Bounty.

Not exactly X-Com like gameplay but fairly close in general principle.

[whats goldhawk's next project?]

X2 wasn't confirmed, just speculated. Chris only mentioned that they were testing some new aiming/shooting system for a future turn based game.

[Ultimate space commando]

I like the concept but the game looks really unappealing to me (though it's an early build). And I don't mean to be shallow but the graphics look really bad. Not because they're "old school" but simply because they look bad, sometimes it just doesn't click. Plus I have a particular dislike for the full top down view of characters.

[So...... whats next?]

Now....we dance.

[Skitso's Oppressive UI MOD]

Oooh, that's so oppressive. Will try after release, hope it continues to get tweaked.

[Will the Flamethrower return?]

Time heals

...all burns.

[Age of Wonders III]

My unpaid shilling continues:

Dreadnought , a steampunk/industrial leader class.

Sorcerer, non-elemental wizard/summoner, has access to some nasty Cthulhu-esque stuff.

A fairly long gameplay vid:

[video=youtube;h941vL41zTc]

It's mostly in German but the game dev speaks in English and things are pretty self-explanatory anyway.

[arrow to the knee jokes]

I'm in!

I was once a secret organization like you but then I took an alien invasion to the funding regions.

[Praetors, Wraiths, and other things about ground combat]

I guess X-Com "solved" some of this simply because it didn't have tiers of the same alien type so a rookie could always be a threat with the right weapon. Likewise a lowly sectoid wtih a plasma rifle could down your power armoured soldier with one or two shots. The drawback is that armour wasn't much help since everything had to be "normalized" up until the late game. Everything was susceptible to everything at all times.

Also can't help but think if opening doors should cause reaction fire. It would encourage the use of shields, high reaction weapons and add some risk to it but also remove the exploit and the "unrealistic" TU cost of opening/closing doors. Of course aliens would need to be toned down as well.

[Soldier sounds idea]

"No more enemies, just casualties." :3
