Astorax Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Looks good! Glad to see things are progressing nicely. Quote
hosser Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Yesssssss. I am too excited for the Research tech tree. Can't wait to see the UFO tiles too! Quote
3havoc Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 The pre-order keys haven't been distributed. *Edit: maybe they have been. Quote
Guyver Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Oh, sorry - just to clarify for anyone who has pre-ordered the game now instead of being an old-school pre-orderer. To get your forum badge, you just need to go here: http://www.desura.com/games/xenonauts/connect and press the Connect button. That'll link your Desura order and your forum account. thanks, now it works! tested the alpha and it was really fun and "x-com" like, can't wait to try the v.8! Quote
anotherdevil Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Huzzah! Looking forward to seeing everything in a nice shiny new format! Looking forward to the new GUI concept too! Quote
catmorbid Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Looking good. Can't wait to get to test the v8, with all the pieces finally starting to fall in place Quote
Joeneren Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Yay for lasers \o/ and all the other stuff ofc ..... but mostly lasers Quote
irongamer Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Sounds good. Can't wait to start testing some of the additional features. Quote
Moonie Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Are there any plans to make the GUI sizeable? At the moment it is pretty tiny on my 24" widescreen. Quote
geordiedave1982 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 im new to fourms and in particulare playing alpha and beta testing however u cal it, but assuming the battlefield will be rotateable?,, loving the early stages of the games, played xcom on the ps1 and fell in love with the genre then!

Sathra Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Probably not. Due to the engine I think. Quote
essi2 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Really looking forwards to giving V8 a try. Quote
PotatoMcWhiskey Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 This is what I've been waiting for. Just premium pre-ordered on Desura. You guys deserve my money! (although i don't know how to get my badge ) Quote
Szabtom Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Hooray for manual kneeling and laser rifles! Quote
Virgil Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 I'm glad you decided to work the cover system out this way, despite having to redo art for it. The game will be better for it. Quote
Ghost1082 Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 We've been screaming and shouting about manual kneeling.. Looking forward to seeing the new iteration.. Quote
Lobster Man Commander Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 I was going to download V7.5 today. But will try to keep my pants on until this weekend and try V8 instead. Can't wait to see how far you've come in the game development. It's gonna be a blast! (quite literary). Quote
S0ny_B1ack Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 Getting closer to the weekend every day Can't wait to try the new build. Keep up the great work Chris Quote
Chris Posted November 10, 2011 Author Posted November 10, 2011 For those unfamiliar with my timekeeping, a 'weekend release' usually means at 1am on Sunday night Sadly that was not actually a joke. Quote
anotherdevil Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 (edited) It's really not. Sometimes it even means 11:59pm (1 am is technically Monday Chris) the sunday after the week it's supposed to be released! But we always forgive him, because he always delivers Edited November 11, 2011 by anotherdevil words, they are awesome Quote
Gauddlike Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Yep always delivers just like a postman. It isn't always exactly what you were expecting or when you were expecting it and sometimes it has a footprint right over the 'fragile' sticker but it is delivered. Quote
Chris Posted November 11, 2011 Author Posted November 11, 2011 It's really not. Sometimes it even means 11:59pm (1 am is technically Monday Chris) the sunday after the week it's supposed to be released! But we always forgive him, because he always delivers If I've not gone to sleep, it's still the weekend! Quote
