we are currently heading towards a new release - a release of the 2.1 code tree - you can find latest beta versions here: http://mattn.ninex.info (currently uploading a new version). if you encounter bugs (be sure you will) - which is most likely due to a lot of new features - please let us know in our irc channel ( irc.freenode.org #ufo:ai ) or via our bugtracker at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ufoai/ .

I also would like to let you know, that we have greatly improved multiplayer gaming - coop, deathmatch and team deathmatch are implemented and working very nice now. We also have a masterserver set up to let the in-game server browser be alive. If you want to play a multiplayer round, just enter the above given irc channel and let us know. It would be us a pleasure to do some "gametesting" :-D

best regards
martin

no, currently we don't have a release date for 2.1, because it's still a little unstable - btw did i mention that we are searching betatester :-D.... ?! (did i even repeat me - oh what a shame)

but i would bet that some of you will really love the new multiplayer modes and even some of the new singleplayer features. i don't think that we will need another year to finish 2.1 - but as i said - no date yet - can be next week - next month...

and feedback is always welcome (and very important to make some devs happy - in the time where everyone seams to only play fps-games wink.gif )

It's bad timing, with Afterlight just released and everything wink.gif. I guess I could make a news post about the beta however.

I'm downloading it... (236 Mb)

Here in Finland our leading PC-magazine's reviewer was very impressed by this. He said:

+ stirring
+ surprising
+ rousing
- quite dumb AI
- missions are not related to each other

Thank you guys for your hard work (a real turn based game)! APs tactics rocks!

* First significant steps towards implementing the storyline.

Hey mattn, one of the gang at TCancer is confused about the multiplayer. He wrote:
QUOTE
Got any idea how Multiplayer UFO:AI works? Assuming it's TCP/IP playable I used the main game menu and went to the lobby, says I need to be registered or something. I go to their website and there's no info about it in the wiki or forums. Their IRC contact channel doesn't exist (supposed to be on Quakenet).

Any words of wisdom?
