Thanks everyone! See you next time!
Thanks for the update, good work. Any plans for campaign remake?
I don’t believe we’ll be doing any single player missions, but the team enjoys making co-op maps to play against AI. We currently have them in AR and APB, so no reason not to expect them for TSR in the future!
why removing Veterancy and alot of secondary weapons?? ur making the game even more blander than strategy version (tiberium sun) variety and different tools is a MUST for a 3rd person game! most of infantries only with 1 weapon?!! really?!
HI! A lot of the things you see removed are going to come back in a future patch. If you’d like to read up on why each item was removed or changed, you can visit our forums here: W3dhub.com
Short answer would be that a lot of things were just broken in 1.5, and this was meant to make the game more playable until the team is able to sort out the issues. We’re sorry for any issues this has caused.
Thank you for clarifying! I was also going to ask about this.
No problem at all!
Does that mean mutants and ion storms are coming back?
Those two changes made me the most sad.
