    Hey all,

    So far the latest build is looking good. We're running it through tests still, so I can't say for sure it will be out today, but it IS coming.

    There's a metric TON of stuff in this build. Of course the highlights are:
    - Teleporters
    - Area Patrol
    - Massive balance changes
    - We've coded in 75% more fun
    - There are however fewer unicorns, puppy dogs and rainbows. It was a necessary tradeoff

    In seriousness, this is, from a play perspective, one of the biggest builds we've done since beta in September. We're looking forward to getting this in your hands and getting the next cycle of iteration and feedback going.

    I'll post when I know for sure we have a build that is safe to send.

    They didn't take any of the kittens out you can easily see. As for puppies, unicorns, and rainbows. Those are of secondary concern DIG MOAR METAL SLAVEBOTS!

    It might be for the best... if I watch any more puppies or unicorns get blasted from orbit I'm going to need therapy.

    Am I still in time to back you up with 10.000 bucks so to ask for a Hello Kitty Commander?

    Don't be EA. Also, that sounds EXACTLY like EA, you even made up the number after having seen their production numbers to just barely overexpect greater from them. That sounds like them, take what was done and expect exactly +1 more than what was done as the quota that was made up right after listening to the progress report.

    Also, I share zweilstein's enthusiasm. My roger is awefully jolly with the creation of this thread.

    Also carlor, I am sure if that was a serious offer that they would seriously consider it, although it would have to be more if literally hello kitty themed instead of similarly themed to hello kitty, liscensed-character-merchendise and the associated liscense is usually more expensive than the generic. Basically, your better off settling for a "hi-hi kitten" themed commander.
