Yes it is getting ridiculous that everyone and thier mother is requesting to join the beta. Despite us saying we dont need testers a post or two above them. We know the real reason they want to join is so they can get thier hands on an early release of the mod. They do not know that beta testing SoA 2 is not as it seems, and can be a major pain in the @$$. The main topic has been edited.

[quote who="QuicktoDraw" reply="20" id="2211543"]I am glad to see that you guys got the Excelsior icon to work, and it's kinda cool to see it work, but I can understand what Dragoon meant by it having the planet bombardment as too powerful. Also, great job on the turrets (though you have all the Klingon turret research mispelled as turrent), but I noticed that the skinning on the Federation turret is really shiny. Is it supposed to be that way, or are you still perfecting the

[quote who="QuicktoDraw" reply="15" id="2208010"] Quoting sc456a, reply 13 Oh, and the Cube is insanely difficult to defeat - probably unbeatable without a maxed out fleet. Actually, I think that it's impossible to beat (I used a full fleet with all Capitals maxed out and ony the largest of Cruiser class vessels, and I still couldn't get it past the 7/8 hit point mark), since I never did defeat it, but I think they designed it that way

[quote who="dknippe2" reply="12" id="2207844"]Actually, I really like Mooster's idea of posting testing videos.

Sorry guys for my absence, i'm closing up some issues that need to be taken care of and work isn't helpping, especially working 55+ hours a week. I recently heard back from stress he will not be around for awhile. First to address a few things, the pace of mod is working alot slower than i had hoped. That will change soon. Real soon. I would like to have the first entrenchment release in about two weeks. Hopefully the

In a previous beta version (before the switch to Entrenchment) we did have the federation with their own research. I'm sure that will be added back in when we get around to it.

I'm not sure how long it will be. I can say it will most likely take longer than a few days lol. Yes, Major Stress is on the road atm and he has all the work for the structures so if we do release a demo before he's back it will most likely not contain trek structures. We have been progressing but we also need to update the mod so it works in Entrenchment 1.02, we still have some balancing to work on, and a few other things that need to be smoothed out. As soon as an update is

The original post has been updated to hopefully clear up any misunderstanding, the BoPs were mentioned using the fighter style movement because they looked so awesome using it, but all ships except the larger borg vessels do use it. It is still being refined, but is in use. We do need to work on some balancing issues that arose from implementing it, such as the Galaxy now being able to outshoot a Sovereign one on one, due to the Galaxy doing more damage per pass because it has more ph

Darkshimmer and Stress are still in charge, and they are both in contact with each other "just letting you all know i am still alive, and my interest in SoA2 has not faded. Darkshimmer is doing an excellent job of holding the fort during my absense. I have yet to see the new updates Darkshimmer added being as i am on the road for work, and have no computer of my own to use during this trip. Hopefully that will change soon.
