Episode 2 BETA

From Android stats, more than 50% of players who have downloaded the game never start a mission. Maybe the UI is confusing (“Save the World”?)

I disagree with that, but I understand why, but let’s just leave it at that since it’s not a big deal.

@InterAction_studios

The plural of “spacecraft” is also “spacecraft”. Because English

Well the fun thing is both are correct and maybe it will shift into spacecrafts being the more common one.

@InterAction_studios

No. It also counts as a multiplayer game.

Sure, but I had to ask since it’s a different type that only requires one computer.

@InterAction_studios

Plus, it doesn’t make sense on Android (Where the Episodes will initially be released)

So, once again a mobile version is restricting the PC version? You do know that it’s possible to make some functions only for one platform?

@InterAction_studios

Neither do I. Steam is going to be the hardest one of all (due to the existing DLC).

Have you at least tried to contact Steam Support? (Jeremy™)
Generally steam should be possible but it depends how you’re tackling it.
Few examples from my mind:
Skyrim Special edition - If you had Skyrim and few specified DLCs for it you got this new edition for free.
Evoland legendary edition - if you had evoland 2 you got this new edition for free
Goat Simulator Remastered - it is said that you will need to buy it for full price even if you had normal one with all DLCs.
It’s really best to consult Steam Support how to handle it, but first decide if a player needs all DLCs or not.

Wouldn’t it be really funny if a modifier “Weapon from the past” was added and it only had the CI1 Ion Blaster for the entire game?

I’m more sad about CI2 neutron gun. The new one is sht compared to the old one.

@Sammarald

well that’s disappointing,

+1. To be honest right now I don’t know what exactly is this supposed to be. Does this remake mean that the episodes will no longer be updated and will be archived like the old CI2 version or will they be a separate entry and the old episodes will continue to exist and receive technical updates? I sure hope so because the episodes don’t have all the features that old versions had.

@Sammarald

at this point i feel it’d be better if you were able to sign into your CIU account within the episode (at the cost of making it always online?)

That was one of my proposals in this topic: Chicken Invaders Universe episodes DLCs framework
It doesn’t necessarily require you to only choose one. Playing online keeps your progress, but you can still play offline just that it won’t transfer to your account.

@Sammarald

but this would turn the CIU account into an all-encompassing chicken invaders account

That will be the case when episodes come to CIU as a DLC. All episodes in one place, in one game, on one account.

@InterAction_studios

It’s practically the same as CI2U (CI2 re-implemented within CIU). So “Anniversary-like mission” is more appropriate.

Well now I’m even more confused what is this project? Update to old games or a new entry?

@InterAction_studios

the game will still need to restart.

Does it restart by making the game silently crash? Because I have crash.CIep2.log file, but it never crashed.
