TNoyce Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Also, Chris.. That's awesome news about Version 9.0.. Now, you've made the wait all that much harder. I know you'll get it done when you can.
jimbobfury Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 That's great! Getting at least basic Alien AI so soon is more than I expected, and combined with a bit more map variety, this sounds fantastic! Can't wait for the release. Keep up the good work, Chris.
Spencer Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 HumanKtulu what game is your avatar from? I have vague memories about playing that game at my cousins place and loveing it but never getting it myself... I'm pretty sure the avatar comes from the comic book series called "Les Tuniques Bleues". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Tuniques_Bleues Sorry for being off-topic, but in this case I really couldn't help it.
Gorlom Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 I'm pretty sure the avatar comes from the comic book series called "Les Tuniques Bleues".http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Tuniques_Bleues Sorry for being off-topic, but in this case I really couldn't help it. Interesting bit of backstory but it was the game i was after and I do believe the picture is from the game rather then the comics. Thank you nontheless.
Leimboy Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Gorlom, you may think of the game 'North & South' released for amiga back in the days: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_%26_South_%28video_game%29
Gorlom Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) Yes, I already got the answer from Yunas. thank you =) PS: the info was also included in the wikipedia article about the bluetunics comic provided if you did look through that one quickly DS. Edited February 2, 2012 by Gorlom
Leimboy Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Great! I remember it as being quite a fun little game for two players. Played it a lot on the Amiga in the good old days. Thanks for reminding me of it
Ryuoki707 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 First, I'm so glad that Fireaxis made their announcement because without it I would never have found Xenonauts. I think you guys are doing a great job and I can't wait for V9...speaking of which any idea when that wait will be over?
Gorlom Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 I believe that answer is on one or two pages back in this thread. Edit: THis little tidbit was on page four: It might not be another few days yet. We've done a lot of work and it's taking some time to get it all into one game and working with everything else
jimbobfury Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 I'm holding out hope that Chris may be able to have v9 released in time for the weekend... Not realistic I know, but it'd be nice!
Amiga4ever Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Dreams comes true ) but not so fast my friend
Chris Posted February 3, 2012 Author Posted February 3, 2012 It depends on how the AI integration goes.
jimbobfury Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Wow...so it's possible? Great news man, good luck with the AI then!
TNoyce Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Wouldn't really expect it to happen, but these devs have been absolutely awesome.. So, who knows?
Ryuoki707 Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Take your time guys! I'd rather wait and have a better quality build then have it rushed and suck...
Khombhat Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Love this game and this genre. I haven't been able to play this game much, of course, because it keeps crashing for me on the ground battle either when a random member of my team dies to alien gunfire or I use the backpack option and return to game. May have something to do with my guy carrying an alien corpse for research purposes. I always pick up at least 1 corpse and that seems to be when it happens. Also, the crashes that have happened when one of my soldiers dies have been when it was a soldier that was carrying an alien corpse so, perhaps, it is not so random? Anyway, can't wait for future builds and the ability to complete my first ground battle. :-D
Tom O'Bedlam Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) This is odd, this build is incredibly unstable for me. I'm not even managing to get through a single ground mission. Though perhaps its Desura causing me difficulties with the updating. edit: scratch that. I verified the files and now it seems to be working fine Edited February 6, 2012 by Tom O'Bedlam
moonchild Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 can't wait for 9.0 to come out. Any idea if there will be a major content update in it?
Gorlom Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) There should be posts by Chris in this thread detailing what will be in the 9.0 version. Like this post here Love this game and this genre. I haven't been able to play this game much, of course, because it keeps crashing for me on the ground battle either when a random member of my team dies to alien gunfire or I use the backpack option and return to game. May have something to do with my guy carrying an alien corpse for research purposes. I always pick up at least 1 corpse and that seems to be when it happens. Also, the crashes that have happened when one of my soldiers dies have been when it was a soldier that was carrying an alien corpse so, perhaps, it is not so random?Anyway, can't wait for future builds and the ability to complete my first ground battle. :-D I would suggest you sop picking up dead aliens for now then. theres no real need since if you win the mission any alien corpse will be sold off at the end. Keeping one in the backpack wont make any difference except seemingly cause you to crash. Edited February 6, 2012 by Gorlom
BlackObsidian Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 There should be posts by Chris in this thread detailing what will be in the 9.0 version. There are - try looking at the bottom of page 4 of this thread. http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/showthread.php?808-Build-V8.9-Released!/page4

resonansER Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 So, the expectation is delayed until unknown date. It's sad. After all, I have not played in version 8.9 because of the many bugs and crashes, so expect version 9.0. In any case thank Chris and his team for what they continue to work on the project ...
