Uber's been pretty quiet lately.

Are they taking a well-earned rest? Or are they just working so hard they haven't given us any updates or PTE?

I'm just curious, as I haven't had any news on what's coming up lately. I guess I've just gotten used to it with the PTE and all!

Anyone know anything?

They just released a huge balance patch! I think we haven't seen balance tests because they have been waiting to see what people do with this new way of playing. The best thing you can do to help that is play a lot! They also said they have a "big rock" feature coming soon, so they want to keep that change secret for now and can't talk about it.

I think for now the devs are just watching and waiting, although I didn't notice that they were being quiet at all. Metabolical and Scathis both showed up to watch king of the planet today and I'm sure they were taking notes on balance while they watched, too.

I'd guess that Toy Rush is taking up a big portion of their time right now with it being out and all.

The balance patch was just pushing the PTE live.

Toy Rush was just launched, which probably took a bunch of their time.

That being said, whenever they're quiet they normally come out with something big.

I'm guessing they're working pretty hard on the big rock feature.

Either way, whatever is coming is gonna be exciting!

Watcha' workin' on Sorian, who is obviously suddenly my best friend and would tell me in a moment despite loyal promises not toooo...

cool! Can't wait to see what you guys come up with! I bet it rocks!

Ooh! I see what you did there!

Wait, what was that?

It wasn't intended?

Are you su-

Well alright then... congrats anyway...

I'm hoping the feature either ends up being functional metal planets or gas Giants. Even If it's not one of those I'm sure it'll be a pleasant surprise anyway.

Edit:
Actually now that I think about it, it might be the galactic war since they were talking about how it's nearing release a while back.

Don't worry, it was completely intended!

sometimes i think i just should visit the forum less often ... to get a bigger ammount of information later ... than just occasional bits and pieces now ...

*Begins to read this whilst thinking about how much time has been wasted refreshing the page waiting for notes and/or new stuff.*

^Story of my life.

My guess is that this big rock feature is making things quiet.

And if they're working hard enough on that that it makes things quiet, makes me wonder if this really is asteroid belts or... Something bigger.
Galactically bigger.
[hypes internally]

Or maybe something that shoots cannon units...

Uber has confirmed otherwise at least 20 times now.

honestly, WE'RE the ones who have been quiet lately!

Common guys lets make this forum alive again!

I wanna thread with a debate that's hotter than the fire's of hell.

Oh I know, we were getting somewhere with that thread about microtransactions, it went all the way into what the definition of art is, what counts as art, and what makes art worth something.

Was about to mention that thread. Definitely a somewhat heated discussion there.

I didn't want to join in because of my mixed feelings and because of how hot my fires burn on the subject of microtransactions.

The thing is I hate microtransactions, pay to play and pay to win as three sides of the same die (yes three sided die exist, study your DnD guys!)
...but this is a bit different since Uber promisses to balance all the commanders out.

...I'm a sceptic when it comes to that last detail and I want to see if the commanders really do turn out balanced.
and then I'll be fine with commander micro-transactions.
