New Maps and Mod Support Added to Ashes of the Singularity

Ashes of the Singularity just got even better, as Stardock has released version 2.2, adding plenty of new fixes and content to the game. In the update, you’ll find the much-anticipated replay feature, rebalancing fixes, even more maps, and more importantly of all, modding support!

“Fans have been asking for game replay for a while now, so we’re really excited to implement it. The replays remove the fog of war so that you can see the entire map and all its players, which can be really valuable for formulating new strategies and learning where old ones may have gone wrong.” – Derek Paxton, Stardock’s Vice President of Entertainment.

Here are the main features of today’s update:

  • Refining the counter system
  • Increasing strategic diversity
  • Opening up late game tech
  • Making Substrate less radioactives-intensive
  • Weakening exploitative “cheese” strategies
  • Improving game flow
  • Making the game more welcoming for newer players
  • Preventing double-capturing of resource points at the beginning of a game

The new maps include the 12-player Manannan map, and the 10-player Aenghus map, which as designed to suit the free-for-all gameplay mode. The Brighid map is tuned for 8 players, with a 4v4 or 4 teams of 2 configurations.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
