Concept art by Piotr SzekalskiSince we started Pre-Orders back in October we have received an overwhelming positive response. The game has great momentum and the fans are a major reason because of this.

So we are calling on you to bring the game in to main stream, without you the fans this game wouldn't even exist.

How can you help?

* It's easy, become a fan on our Facebook page here and suggest to ALL your friends.
* Subscribe to our YouTube Channel or become a friend here
* You can follow us on Twitter here
* We even have a Steam group setup here

Also starting this week every Saturday there will be live open meetings with developers for more details on this please visit the forums here

We are looking for user feedback and suggestions on a Miner Wars 2081 catch phrase in our forum.

GAME UPDATE

This week's game update
* Editor - people can place bots
* New weapons - The Enforcer and the Gauss Cannon (names are subject to change)

STORE

Awesomely, the game is still available for a 70% discount. This package includes free access to the current build, and free updates to the engine until the final stages of production.

Only small update to Editor

Creating small ships enabled
-when playing edited sectors in sandbox, you wont see bots on HUD(will be improved in next builds)

-for move objects speed is used same speed indicator as for Editor Spectator, so for example, if spectator movement speed is 2, you will be able to move objects with same speed - this is usefull especially when you are trying to move very small objects(small ships, debris) and it is best to do that with lowest speed

-btw, spectator speed can be changed using mouse scrollwheel

-player ship position info added, however, you cannot move or do anything with player ship at the moment

Is there no way to make a sticky called: Game update (DATE HERE)
Instead of new threads all the time? (Just a suggestion!)

Also, the updates are so awesome! Got a group of 6 friends, they are getting more convinced to buy it after all those content updates!


Also, i am helping too, i play Gmod all the time and i spray the Miner Wars logo everywhere with a url to the site.

I need some clarification if you will,this "Awesomely, the game is still available for a 70% discount. This package includes free access to the current build, and free updates to the engine until the final stages of production." kind of gives the impression that when the final stages of production start free updates to the engine will end.I hope I am just reading that wrong because the store item says "Buy now and get the full version of the game when it gets released." Thank you for your time.

@krichard:
Near the final stages of production the engine will be in final condition anyway, so what could we possibly update the engine with at that point in production? Your access to the engine-only version that comes with the pre-order will not be deactivated until full release, at which point your user-name will simply be transferred for free to the full game.

@ Expack

I don't know if that video is valid since i saw the rules and:
"Bots" are prohibited

About bots - guys, this is misunderstanding. By bots we meant tools that will fake count of video views.

Not game bots - those are perfectly fine.
