- Welcome to Dogs Of War Vu.
Cry Havoc! And let slip the dogs of war!
Update 1.5 is live! Performance improvements, new Domination mode, and more!
Fri, 6 December 2019
Update 1.5 is here with performance improvements, changes to the matchmaking system, a new PvP game mode "Domination", a player reporting system, gameplay adjustments, and more.
Thank you to everyone who shared their feedback with us since our last major update. We've made a bunch of improvements to the matchmaking system based on your input. In addition, we've further optimized the game and added a new Versus game mode, Domination. Although this mode was originally intended as a sample mode for modders, we decided to include it in 1.5 officially due to how well it performed during testing, its ability to function as a strong onboarding experience for new players, and to respond to the requests we frequently get to permanently reintroduce Team Deathmatch into the game. We've made a number of gameplay changes including adjustments to weapon sway and recoil, a slight sprint speed reduction, improved reliability of smoke grenades, and more advanced optional separation of vault, crouch, slide and jump keybindings. In celebration of the update and the holidays, we'll be running 2x XP across all...

1.5 CTE Now Open
The Community Test Environment for our next update, update 1.5, is now live. Go to your Steam Library and download "Insurgency: Sandstorm Community Test Environment" to play.
We'll be having a "Play with the Devs" event on the CTE on Tuesday December 3 & Friday December 6 from 11:00 AM MST - 1:00 PM MST. We'll be testing playlist improvements on the US servers in the official matchmaking of our new game mode Domination (see more information below), NOT on a server under Community Servers as we've done in the past. To join us, just boot up the CTE, go to Play, select Domination, and Find Match. All the devs won't necessarily be in one game, but you'll see us floating around your matches!
This update features a ton of quality of life improvements, gameplay improvements, optimization, and bug fixes. Please share your feedback on the CTE forums here https://steamcommunity.com/app/581320/discussions/3/ . The highlights can be seen below:

We've made both game and map changes to further optimize Sandstorm. This is part of an ongoing effort to address performance issues with other maps and the game as a whole....

2 Dec 2019
Epsom, UK, December 2nd, 2019.
Slitherine LTD, the world's leading publisher of digital wargames and strategy games, in collaboration with Sony Pictures Consumer Products, announced today "Starship Troopers - Terran Command", a real time strategy game based on TriStar Pictures's iconic 1997 movie to be released for PC in 2020.
Watch the Trailer!
"If you take one of the most iconic movies from the 90s and shape it into a strategy game of survival, that mixes classic real-time mechanics, tower defense and tactical deployment of units then you have 'Starship Troopers - Terran Command' in a nutshell", says Iain McNeil, Development Director at Slitherine. "Modern strategy games are fast-paced and they successfully blend unit management, survival and captivating storytelling. Nothing is more suited to this type of gameplay than the Starship Troopers universe, where there is a continuous sense of danger and uncertainty".
Set in the same universe of the original movie, "Starship Troopers - Terran Command" drops players right at the heart of a human colony overrun by the Arachnids. They must take the fight into bug territory,...

A blast from the past. In 1995, Basil Copeland, Eric Joiner, and Heinz Bernd Eggenstein wrote a Tornado strategy guide as a Win3.1(!) WinHelp file. The file embedded with pictures and tables (2.6MB zipped!) detailed many aspects of Tornado strategy and tactics. See here for Heinz's post on the Hitech Simulation Mailing List.
Its contents remain a classic. What I did in March 2016 was to convert the Winhelp content, which cannot be opened in Windows 10, into HTML. Here is the link to one of the best strategy guides ever written for any DOS flight simulator. http://www.frankiekam.com/tornado/tcsc/tcsc.html
A salute to Basil Copeland, Eric Joiner, and Heinz Bernd Eggenstein. Wherever you guys are now.
Cheers
