The Call to Arms (Patch 1.0.2.5)
Today (October 25th, 2010) we will be releasing our first major content patch; the “Call to Arms”.
To celebrate this milestone the nice people at Steam have allowed us to put DogFighter on promo for a limited time with a whopping 85% off!
Are we crazy? Well, yes we are but that’s beside the point.
So what are you getting for your hard earned dosh?
Here’s what we are including in our patch:
* Tutorial Mode
To ease our new players into the DogFighter universe
* Mongoose Interceptor
A new craft for those who like to move at mental speeds
* The Old Gods
The first new level for DogFighter. Its frickin’ awesome!
* Dedicated Server App
At last! The dedicated server will be made available to the public for both the full version and the demo version!
* The Usual Bug Fixes and Tweaks(Check forums on Monday for a full list!)
This is something we ALWAYS do and always stay on top of.
Many thanks to the members of our community that have helped us out by reporting bugs and providing debug info. You are the greatest.
