    The unit cannon will help a lot, but I think we really need a re-work of the halleys so that we can move asteroids into orbit.

    Especially since air can't go through the Stargates.

    I reread the posts made a list of features are going to be released tomorrow and which ones are "soon". Some aren't very clearly explained in the posts and could go either way so I placed them in the maybe section.

    Tomorrow:
    • A different build number and gamma logo
    Maybe Tomorrow:
    • Better Twitch support
    • Spectator mode
    • Social improvements
    • Armoury
    • More coms
    • Some UI improvements
    • Saved replays
    "Soon"
    • Better PiP
    • Multi planet spawns
    • Sharing the saved replays
    • Alliance mode
    • Tons of UI improvements
    • Balance improvements
    so yeah, tomorrow's update might not be as big as we're thinking...

    Don't forget about balance changes, particularly to Air.

    The UI Improvements and Spectator Modes are huge.

    It's gonna be a big update. I can't wait.

    And the AI threat evaluation fix. Right now the AI is rather blind because of this bug.

    Added, also I improved the list so your quote's out of date.

    TBH this i what I'm the most excited about - balance changes to air. This Patch made T1 air viable, the next patch needs to make t2 air a bit less then we have the balance in an extremely good spot.

    I think i was discussing this with someone earlier on the forums. DSR needs *adjusted* to make more logical sense.

    Keep in mind that not everything coming during gamma is in the first build. There is a lot of changed stuff though.
