Parker Stiles Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I'm excited it dropped so early here in the US. 2:30pm for me. I have a few hours to play with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-laz- Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Windows 10 was being a bit funny about running the install file, hope it works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamarsden Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 So far, so good. It's downloaded and I'm really pleased with the new screens. I like the layout of the buttons and being able to check my email on the news screen and seeing the costs of each worker. I'd give this game a 9/10 so far just for the look.

Adam Ryland Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Glad to see intro music back I wonder how many people had their volume up and scared the crap out of themselves upon loading the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justtxyank Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I wonder how many people had their volume up and scared the crap out of themselves upon loading the game? I was one of them. I'm at work and had to mute really fast. Wasn't sure what was happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Next reaction after importing/converting Rising Storms and looking in the editor at everything I can do: I may be the only developer in history where I release a title and a large portion of my fan base completely ignores the actual game and heads right for the editor instead.

Actually, I'm playing around with the c-verse first so I can get a handle on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvdWarrior Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I wonder how many people had their volume up and scared the crap out of themselves upon loading the game? I was one of them. I'm at work and had to mute really fast. Wasn't sure what was happening. I won't be one of them... In a move that can only be classified as 'surprising', I ... erm.. clicked my way into this thread as soon as my download completed. Just about to install now, very much looking forward to it.

20LEgend Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Just looking to pick a user character from the unemployed guys over 40 and already seeing some really interesting changes. Intrigued to see how they've effected the big companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justtxyank Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I may be the only developer in history where I release a title and a large portion of my fan base completely ignores the actual game and heads right for the editor instead. I'll actually play some CVerse before I start editing because it's a little overwhelming this year, but yes, going into the editor was step 1 for me! Looking around in the editor and I see a lot of cool stuff: 1) Starting absences: No more setting up a ridiculous injury just to have someone away because they were in rehab to start the game. Don't remember that from the journal. 2) HD quality broadcast: Nice touch. Can be set as a requirement for a channel. 3) Broadcaster changes: Being able to setup changes to the broadcasters in the editor is amazing. You can set it up that on a specific date in the future any of the settings on a broadcaster (including size, range, broadcast requirements, HD, etc.) change. Very nice.

miamarsden Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Can the music be edited to switch to a different song, by chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
