En attendant une extension plus conséquente, Guardians prévue semble-t-il pour le 16 avril prochain, Amplitude Studios a récemment ajouté à Endless Legend (voir notre test) un mini DLC gratis nommé Eye on the Stars, qui ajoute entre autre une faction mineure, les Dorgeshi, et une quête originale permettant de décrocher la victoire en quittant la planète. Ce DLC se récupère automatiquement avec le dernier patch 1.0.44.
Pour plus d’informations voyez si besoin ce changelog ainsi que les récapitulatifs ci-dessous. Ou reportez-vous directement du coté du dev blog sur le site officiel.
Eye on the Stars – principales caractéristiques
The next free update will be called EYE ON THE STARS, and will be released on March 18th. It contains the following features:
– An improvement on diplomacy allowing you to ask an empire to declare war on another empire.
– An integrated set of AI and Simulation tools, which allow you to browse through all the variables of an empire. Very useful for modders who want to understand what is going on. It allows you to switch between empires, so obviously this will be available in a special launch mode, to avoid multiplayer cheats.
– The world generation is enriched with a system of presets, offering exotic continents layout: New World, Scattered, Symmetrical.
– A Victory Quest has been added. Once you complete your main faction quest, you can attempt to achieve this quest to win the game (new victory condition). I will not give more details to allow you to discover this yourself.
– A new outgame scene featuring the Drakkens has been added.
– New Steam achievements have been added per G2G design and vote.
– The Dorgeshi minor faction (G2G) has also been added.
– 6 new keyboard shortcuts as requested on the forum.
Guardians – principales caractéristiques
The first expansion pack will be released on April 16th and is named GUARDIANS, priced at 9.99€ (adapted to other currencies). It will contain the following elements:
