Alpha 8.52 features a new weapon sounds by DontAsk4470 and an updated tutorial level.


The ModDB mirrors unlock at 12:00 GMT, if it's busy or not working the installer can be downloaded from 40ksource.com.  Please try the ModDB first.

Install the Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer
  • Navigate to the "Tools" section on your Steam games "Library"
  • Install the "Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer"
  • Run the Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer at least once.
  • You can exit once the menu has finished loading.

Install the latest Exterminatus Alpha
  • If you already have a copy of the EX alpha, delete it.
  • Run the alpha installer and follow it's instructions.
  • Restart Steam.  You should now see both the Exterminatus Alpha listed in your library.

Features
  • New Plasmagun sounds from DontAsk4470
  • New Meltagun sounds from DontAsk4470
  • New Plasma Pistol sound effect from DontAsk4470

Tweaks
  • Decreased the time it takes to capture a control point from 10 seconds to 7 seconds.
  • Changed how the Warriors Venom Cannon reloads, should prevent those awkward "jams".
  • Added a reload sound to Barbed Stranger weapon when it's projectile has been killed.
  • New version of the tutorial, now with a working firing range.

Balance
  • Increased the cost of Dreadnaught and Carnifex classes to make them even rarer.
  • Increased the cost of Heavy and Terminator classes to make them rarer.

The widespread changes in last weeks alpha certainly made an improvement.  This week's tweaks are intended to balance out the extremes.
