    As the title reads, I want to extend a genuine Thanks to the development team at Uber, for not only making this game, incomplete as it is, but for also letting me be a part of it.

    I know a lot of people are being skeptical, saying this game is a failure already, etc.
    I also see that a lot of cynicism is about the hailed "Unit Cannon" not being in our hands "Now".

    But even you said that something like that would take weeks to code. And you being devs, and I not such, I am willing to accept your word for it, mainly because I know that you have a tiny staff compared to AAA devs. It is genuinely hard to make something with so few people.

    so i say take all the time you need. we would rather it be done right, than not be done at all.

    Personally i think it would be fitting to have it fully functional on release day (whenever that ends up being)

    Balance so far has its issues, but i'm fairly confident you'll work them out.


    I have heard rumors of you needing to meet a deadline some time in May. If this is true, whatever. If you need to push it back, then by all means do so. Again, take all the time you need.


    So here's to you, Uber, for an awesome job so far, and hopes that the release will be as spectacular as i hope it will be.

    The game is more fun for me than AAA titles.

    Agreed.

    PA is shaping up to an awesome game and Uber has been incredible.

    They're so active in the community and are keeping us up to date with the development process. I've backed two other kickstarter games, and while they're still making progress, their progress is no where near to the scale of PA nor do they hold a candle to Uber when it comes to communicating.

    Agreed a thousand times.
    The stream of updates and new builds with tons of new features is juste amazing.
    Plus, an obvious talent from Neutrino when it comes to recruiting the best of the best technical experts.

    lol, counter threads FTW. But all jokes aside, thank you Uber, I and I am pretty sure many other annihilators appreciate what your doing and all the love your pouring into this game. :)

    I expect this game to have quite the longevity, even after the Last Patch comes out. I thoroughly enjoy this game, & it is one of the many that inspire me to get a gaming computer so that I can run it fully in all of its glory

    Couldn't agree more. There will always be negative people on the net - I think it's a combination of relative anonymity (if these people met the uber guys in person, they'd be full of compliments I'm sure), and the fact a lot of less socially calibrated people tend to gravitate to the net and overweight the importance of minor things in their minds.

    The game is great, I did the $90 kickstarter thing and have gotten heeeeeeeaaaaaaps more value than that in sheer fun.

    I think the funnest period for me was when there were only really land units. Making a zillion of those and sending them over for a megabattle was great but a bit harder now that you have lots of other things to build.

    Looking forward to the rest of the journey!
