Reworking of CIU versioning

IMPORTANT!: this is not posted to convince IA to use other versioning system. I just post it so the players can see where currently are we standing with CIU updates after 3 years. however if IA wants to switch to that versioning system then I have no complaints :wink:

I have created a new pseudo semantic versioning that focuses more on players/users of the software than developers. This way you can have your own internal versioning and the general public can more easily know which updates bring new features worth checking out.

platform vX.Y.Z.A.B.C

Explanation of certain parts

platform - site, steam, google play, iOS AppStore etc.

X - 1 is release ready, anything lower is alpha/beta/early access, higher are acceptable if enough changes warrant that or the sequel comes out

Y - major updates - some big changes, mostly new content/features

Z - minor updates - some small additions of new content/features

A - major bugfixes/tweaks - big bugfixes or tweaks that shouldn’t or can’t be missed

B - minor bugfixes/tweaks - small bugfixes or little tweaks that don’t matter too much and can be skipped

C - platform bugfixes - for platform specific bugs that only apply for them

Keep in mind that different people can have different understanding of what is a major and what is a minor feature. Honestly I was being rather generous with calling some updates major in this rework so I doubt it would go any higher than that currently.

In my mind, most modifications and improvements are NOT major updates, although obviously I don’t complain about it. The major updates are, in my opinion:

  • Added new mission types (only Chicken Invasion is available at the beginning). There are currently 12 types of missions, so 11 of them are added later.

  • Added new enemies and waves. Only few updates do this, but in those updates iA was having a lot of free time and a lot of fun so iA put a lot of new waves based on player suggestions, as much as possible.

  • Added new items in the store, power-ups or insights to use in missions.

  • Make environments actually have a major impact in the game. They are in the game in the beginning, but are cosmetics only.

  • Added new competitions (only Daily and Weekly is available at the beginning). There are currently 6 competitions, so 4 of them are added later.

  • A series of updates long in the past that rework all weapons, but because they are given major abilities that make them much more useful than before, I count it as a major update. There are 16 weapons in the game, including the Absolver Beam added as a new weapon in this game.

  • Added Shady Dealer and Supply Droids.

  • Added Chicken Hunter License with two extra-hard CHL missions.

  • Added multiplayer.

  • Added new spacecrafts (two new spacecraft families are added since the beginning).

Indeed, about 30%-40% of updates are considered major, but the system iA uses have an advantage that we know exactly how many updates have been released since the beginning of the game, iA only uses the second number for emergency fixes.

I don’t want iA to change the version naming because that will cause confusion for a lot of players. And remember that iA depends entirely on YOU, the community, to provide feedback (iA doesn’t have many people to test the game with before releasing it to the public, and testing with only small samples result in errors), so iA won’t release an update that is too big because it may cause dangerous errors.

This also serves as a good reminder of what the updates brought over the years

Thank you for this. I missed over a year of content and I’ve been curious on what was added in which patch

Yeah I said I was generous with classifying some of the updates.

Well it’s kind of worthless since it doesn’t tell anything at all - updates were coming in different periods, some of them were minor updates and some of them were also minor updates but had to be released as major so all players upgrade to it to fix critical bug.

Not true for all of them. You can trust me, I’ve read all of the changelogs yesterday. There were some emergency fixes, but most of them were optional. If something was truly critical IA just released a new major version.

Well for first it certainly would. But I’m certain players aren’t so stupid and can adapt to some little changes. Especially if it means they will be able to easily see which updates introduce many new features and content.

But, we are all testing it right now. All the players here and all the players from Steam.

IA already released few big updates that even in their changelog had predictions of breaking. And they did. Sometimes you can’t avoid that.

When will the release end now when early access ends?

Many years later…

Oh man agein more years

i hope a log like this will exist for all the other CI games. Or maybe it does, but I just haven’t found it yet

The wiki has a few pages on the update history of the previous games, most notably the beta versions

Added 42 versions since EA version 103.1.

EA ended on v0.51.
Since the release we had 2 major updates.

Feel free to write if you would classify some update as a major one. I tried to be very generous but maybe I missed something.
