Hey, I was wondering when the "Galactic war" mode might be out. When I first saw the PA trailer, I loved it. (That's why I have it) Throughout the trailer, I thought it was great, But galactic war sealed the deal. I'd REALLY want to be playing in the epicness of a galaxy, so that's why I'd thought I should ask. All I want (Beside galactic war, of course) Is a close-enough time. Also, if you forgot about galactic war, I hope I atleast reminded you to keep working on it. Thanks in advance
There are too many things to do. I would have thought that galactic war is so far down their list that they will not get to it until after february or later. At least i hope so anyway. We are missing many things like ladders, units, social functions such as friend lists and chat lobbys.
Neutrino recently made a post about the status of the game, he mentioned GW as part of it. It's clearly not ready yet, but it appears there's been plenty of work on it already.
Keep in mind that GW is primarily a Metagame from what we know so far, so it won't be drastically different from regular games fundamentally. Mike
It'll be a while. :-/ They need a fully functioning game before they can work on the meta game. Here's some further reading about what the Galactic War will be: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/psa-what-galactic-war-actually-is.53312/
Why would you need a fully functional game to develop a meta game on top of it? I would assume GW can be developed basically simultaneously to the main game, as it is pretty independent. The quote from neutrino suggests the same thing.
It's kinda the same thing as balance, it can be worked on side by side but there are some complications that do need to be accounted for, a Meta game is easier in that regard but the complications could still be present. Mike
