Greetings Commanders,
We, the Community Commanders dev team, are excited to share some of our progress and how you can shape PA's ongoing development.
Our priorities are stability, playability, and transparency. So, recently we have released several silent bugfix patches which have resolved a large number of issues and crashes. This will help us build a more stable foundation on which to build some major content drops we have planned. More on those soon – look out for Dev Diaries and join the PA discord to be the first to see what's coming up! Read on to find out how YOU can help shape PA moving forwards…
The LABS PTE is a new initiative where we will be pre-releasing new and experimental content for public testing via the Steam Betas function.
Joining public testing grants you:
Early access to new features, units, mechanics, maps and more
Show off your unique PA Chat icon and Discord role
Ability to provide feedback directly to the Community Commanders in exclusive discord channels
And finally, for players who consistently help with testing, a unique custom Commander: the one and only Kapowatz!
We have added a new local hosting system using Steam's networking that should resolve issues where your friends fail to join your lobby. Downloading server mods will take a bit longer but we aim to improve it over time.
Steam P2P now fully replaces the outdated PA ran servers. If you encounter any issues, please report them in the support channel on the discord!
Max player limit raised from 6 to 12!
While we resolve the build issues with linux, we have added a new branch to Steam with the latest working version that supports Linux. While you wont be able to play Ranked or crossplay with the current live version, you will have full access to singleplayer and multiplayer with other Linux users who are on the same branch.
To access this branch, right click PA in your Steam Library -> Properties -> Game Versions & Betas -> Linux_live
