Re: Changes for War in Heaven Director's Cut
replace the hl2 track from cost of war, it jarred me right out of the game.

Respecfully disagree.  If anything, I think the music needs the least tweaking except for that one bug What Binds Us, and that's not a problem with the music tracks I don't think.

We have no idea what causes some users to intermittently lose music.

It doesn't happen to everyone? :(

I feel special in a bad way.

I'm sorry if this sounds dumb - but did I miss a release thread or something? (what director's cut? :nervous: )

GB's asking what changes you want to see in the DC, not the changes people have noticed in the not-yet-released DC.

Cockpits, even though I likely won't be using them.

Oh, and a less ugly Vasudan logistics vessel. It's a slab with tile maps.

I have the impression that, if you play fs for a while, more and more sound channels get "locked up". When i'm playing really long I frequently reach a point where  missle warnings are not played reliably anymore, getting me killed very fast. The same happens to other sounds, too. And may also to the music. A bit like a memory Leak, just with sounds. I also noticed that sometimes when a new music starts to play the old one continues simultaneously.

Sure, if someone makes or releases one.

Yeah, why would you even want that replaced? It's an awesome combat track, when that first guitar riff started I actually went "Oh hell yes!"

There's a typo in briefing stage 3 of "One Perfect Moment."  Here it is:
"Unfortunately, she's in no physical condition for high-stess negotiation"

And are you guys going to use a different-coloured weapon trail bitmap for the Scalpel? Or a recoloured Akheton_Bitmap?

Ah, that makes more sense  :p

The DC will be then voice-acted or do you plan to release it earlier? (I know VA is a hell of a job)
I miss 2/3 of the messages because of incredible battle-mess going on while defending earth - or I press pause every 3 seconds :)

The main feature of the Director's Cut is voice acting (and optimized models, though those may come even earlier.) VA is well underway.

Oh, I've got one, in "My Brother, My Enemy" (or whatever the mission with Xinny and Zero in it is called again), either prevent the player from allowing his wingmen to warp out, or write a different debriefing which acknolwedges the player's efforts to preserve the lives of his wingmen in what was clearly an "impossible" situation. I always warp them out before they die, but of course it's not acknowledged that I saved their lives before being shot down myself.

(Well, it wasn't impossible, I shot down Xinny and Zero first time without realising that I could let them shoot me down and survive, which I always do now.)

Re: Changes for War in Heaven Director's Cut
Oh huh, I thought the mission was built to account for that, but looking at it I kind undercut my own effort. Whoops!

I figured it was probably accidental, it's a "bug" I've been meaning to report for ages but keep forgetting to.

Of course if you warp them out and kill Xinny and Zero on your own, you should still get the happy debrief.  ;)

Remember, I'm a dirty tev lover, I break the fourth wall to let Xinny and Zero survive and rescue Al'Fadil, but I don't want to bring others down with me in my 4th wall breaking.  :p

I felt guilty playing as UEF at first as well, but after the whole Vasudan thing it cleared. I've always been told 'I fight like a Vasudan' anyways and I don't appreciate the foul play. :mad:

It's shades of grey, the UEF are no better than the GTVA. I can just sympathise with the viewpoint of the Tevs, their return to Sol to find that the parents they left behind are sitting on their laurels and ignoring the clear and present danger represented by meddling interdimensional beings, and a singular lack of appreciation for their efforts during the two shivan incursions.

Now I am the master, etc.

Edit:

Oh, another thing that might be interesting: A narrated "Story so far" style intro video, to briefly give a synopsis of the events leading up to War in Heaven (Including a brief synopsis of AoA, maybe in the style of what a GTVA debriefing on the incident might sound like)
