Exterminatus has come roaring into 2008 with a record nine Alpha builds and the start of Beta testing since our December news round up.  Just this weekend we sent out invites to twenty eight lucky and persistent Warhammer 40,000 fans to get a sneak preview and help us make the best damn 40k mod for source we can.  This months pictures come from our first testing session with the beta testers.



This month we continued to add new sound effects and special effects in-game and have begun producing more polished versions of existing game content.  Meltaguns and the Zoanthropes fearsome warp blast attack have received visual upgrades.  The class selection menus and heads up displays got some loving for more full wide-screen gaming.



Exterminatus and Rival Species were proud to be the focus of an article in Firebase, a warhammer 40k e-zine this month.  Next month we'll continue to adding planned features and polishing the ones we have.  

The end is in sight, the end is Exterminatus...

If you're sat there wondering "Hey! Why wasn't I invited!", have you checked your email recently?  At least one invitee had an old email address in his forum profile and  nearly missed his chance to play the EX beta.

Damn it. It looks like I might have to reinstall that god awful Steam and the less awful half-life 2 so I can give this mod ago when it's released!
