Universal Combat Expansion

[Jul 08, 2004, 10:38 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

This press release announces plans for Universal Combat: Hold the Line (thanks Frans), a Universal Combat expansion, while simultaneously, somewhat confusingly, heralding the end of the short-lived UC series (which was planned as the new Battlecruiser franchise), saying the previously announced UC: Edge to Edge is now a working title, and that the game's official title will be unveiled later this year. Meanwhile, here's the announcement of Hold the Line, planned for release this holiday season:

We have no immediate plans to develop another stand alone Battlecruiser title in the short term. As such, today we are announcing the above currently in progress addition to the Universal Combat franchise. Our aim with UCHTL is to improve on various critical aspects of the previous title in order to provide an even more advanced and fun title based on lessons learned from the previous offering.

Probably the last of its kind in the Battlecruiser series as we have come to know it, we are making UCHTL the all-encompassing game with as much advancements and fun filled gameplay in first person planet-side careers as is currently seen in the space borne careers. An extensive FAQ which will be frequently updated to reflect inbound questions, is located at www.3000ad.com/products/uchtlfaq.html .

At the very least, I'm glad that none of you abject wankers can play my games; because then, this is the kind of crap I'd have to put up with.

No Derek, this isn't what you'd 'have to put up with'. You'd do the same thing you always do. Insult people for being stupid, have them thank you for pointing that out and then ban them from your message boards. Better yet, have DC drop an entire board because people were complaining that UC sucks.

And it's not like I'm saying the UC sucks without actually playing it. I tried the demo. You've got some really neat ideas, but they are poorly implemented. Outside of that, basic functionality that is in freeware games is missing from UC; the most obvious being collision detection. But now I digress.

The lesson here, Derek, is you reap what you sow.

I'm sorry you're too immature to realize that.
