    Uber is hoping to get the new Planetary Annihilation build out today. We’ll see!
    • The cast started out with the new Uber Launcher, so I guess we’ll get the new launcher this build?
    • The Alliance mode was greyed out, so that mostly confirms what we already knew, that Alliance wasn’t going to be in this build.
    • New sounds will be added, but instead Howard (the sound guy) is working on the score right now.
    • Bug where laser defense towers can’t hit bots that are standing still.
    Unfortunately Meta had to leave partway through the stream. At this point the playtests seem to be mainly just making sure there’s no game breaking bugs.

    One can only hope that the Lords of Uber will grace us with the Holy Patch of Awesomeness.

    Meta said that y'all are trying to get it out today.

    Wasn't sure if you would. But was trying to.

    I gotta build the hype!

    He continued after his conference call(The reason he had to leave) and explained the reason behind the autofire bug with the umbrella. From what I could gather it has something to do with the way the umbrellas FOV is created. Not much else happened, it was more of a stability test playtest today.

    Huh, reminds me of a screenshot I took a while back.
    [​IMG]
    I don't even remember how my com was in the air without an astraeus. Maybe the astraeus was invisible for some reason.

    Anyways, can't wait for the next update to ship, I'm definitely looking forward to inferno rushing someone.;)

    Gotta build the hype? The one that is already about to explode? No need for that! :) I am already drooling because of patch deprivation.

    Apparently you can now set a Factory to assist an other Factory. Did I see right, and was a feature we had before, or plain new?

    Around minute 11' in the stream. Bot Factory set to assist the Orbital Launcher.
