Beta testing continued this month, feedback from the beta testers resulted in the return of an old feature from our parent mod Rival Species, crouched aiming. Players now have the choice to stay mobile and less accurate or crouch down for a more accurate shot. Beta feedback has gone into improving the game balance too, our testing games are now closer and more compelling than ever.
The last of the planned HUD elements was added to EX for this months Beta. The new HUD element shows players their team's mission as the game progresses. Typheron continues to develop his map Dig Site, having overcome corrupted map files, an IRC ban and and his AOL internet connection to get it to us.
Finally we would like to thank the (highly productive) Foot Clan for their final set of sound effects they contributed to Exterminatus and wish them the best of luck with their new projects. If anyone is interested in finishing the few remaining sounds EX needs please get in touch (I shall be getting back in contact with earlier volunteers this month).
