Fourth beta is no less than release candidate version. Most known bugs and issues were fixed here. However, some unsolved problems still remain, mission lag is one of the main things that needs to be tested.
Bug reports will not be a frequent thing this time, so I recommend to pay special attention to balance: ship balance, weapons (capship weapons in particular), reputation changes and other things like that. No more new features will be implemented this time, so I'm leaving all suggestions for next releases.
- New ship:
Sea Serpent (Advanced Piranha)
- Moldy Crow model replaced with better one (by Mancer), stats changed, ship needs to be re-bought.
- Changed balance for many new weapons and ships.
- Added Solaris chaingun turrets for gunboats and cruisers, Solaris refire rate reduced.
- Miner recieved thruster hardpoint; Starblazer 2nd engine enabled.
- History developing: Tau-31 is now occupied by Kusari, Bretonia retreating, but planning to strike back!
- More news added about the war between Kusari and Bretonia.
- Battleship Derby stationed in Leeds to defend the Tau-31 jumpgate.
- Many bugs and infocard errors corrected.
