tau ceti is like gravity all it takes is a little push...

Most of the content for TC4 is done already and currently we are finetweaking and balancing so that if feels good when it is released. Testing is a big factor. Missions are quite long and iterating on them takes time.
Other than that the reactor challenge is worked on to offer something fresh to that game mode on how you need to approach it. It will also get a dedicated soundtrack
Speaking about the soundtracks. They are in the final adjustments phase as well and you will get a complete set of new tracks for the TC4 part . Loving the tracks so far and we plan to offer them seperatly if you like to listen to them while not playing PG.
I expect that the release window might be around June/July depeding on how well the tests are going and the final touches are coming along. Stay tuned a bit more until you can hands on enjoy the last part of Tau Ceti.
well someone just summoned the armana right now...So eager may i know june/july which year please.
Good luck with your testing.
Dark planet oof, will there be headlamps available for my ships when landing on this planet, so i can fly seeing where im flyingOur undercover pilot could take some photos from the surface of the foreign planet. But he was very much under pressure with the locals that he could not hold the camera without shaking terrified.

how did he missed that? && i hope the rare blaster has another skin because it was showed in the teaserHere is the link to the teaser trailer.
Its already 4 months old
Sorry for the delay of TC part4. Testers and the Team is giving it the final touches and the release is not far away. Need to sort a few technical issues, texts and here and there a few final tweaks.
just like for part 2 these mission adjustments.. i remember the story "worse to come" it was a never ending lovestory between orbital strikes and ancientsI think there will be a weekly update when tc 4 comes out anyway
yes i remember that one you know what was funny? doing "shared power" solo with the tc dominator.. or in squad.. i did recorded when we were in the landing zone and the mission didnt completes.. so messed up it was.. but after 1 min we made it .. jumping around with slates to not getting killed by the mantis agent and swarm xD today we did the mission again but we killed the mantis swarm and safely get into landing zoneI remember when they added kalon and I don't know, it was mission 3 or 4 where you had to escort the mobs to lz and it was messed up that when they got there the mission was aborted and I don't know what I did, I flew by myself towards the land zone I got to the place where 2 ds are flying by lz and the mission was completed then it was fixed XD
I only say to this that it is noticable that a lot of the TC Missions require the usage of Gravs already to even have a chance of passing them due of the ludicrous insta fail conditions that mostly just require you to pod or leave the mission area and even in Squad a single player is enough to fail a mission due of the mentioned fail conditions.and so I think there will be further delays and slowly they will start to weaken the ships so that you can't do it without a booster What they did to obydian and disruptor and hunter is too much for them to stand on syrk with 4 mobs xD
dont forget how strong the emp was and quartz too. all other ships were stronger especially the parsec storm. i remember also how strong the paragneiss was with sirius armor. ancient armor was great but slowly the tau ceti armor was kinda weak.and so I think there will be further delays and slowly they will start to weaken the ships so that you can't do it without a booster What they did to obsydian and disruptor and hunter is too much for them to stand on syrius with 4 mobs xD
Great job, tc will finally be complete. Still can't ignore the fact a delay more than half a year after being told it would get released last year that was a disaster. Almost 8 years it took for the updates in plan from early 2016 to go on and still got 2 more after this. Really going to need to start thinking about reorganising the team and sorting it out if it stays like this nothing will go smooth and the games will continue to go downhill steel legions is good example. 4 months of the teaser (which was meant to hint tc4 was close) ain't something to be proud of. It means you need to find a way with the team so much as to recruiting new members to avoid such a massive delay and massive gap if the 4 month that trailer was released. Especially when you weren't giving us info on it the past few months when you saw people worried. I hope this gets taken well and you understand.Here is the link to the teaser trailer.

i really agree here and i am dissapointed with part 4 and with its trailer. too much spoiler too much was shown. the other parts were recorded very well for the hype. after 8 years we are waiting for something that will hit all walls.Great job, tc will finally be complete. Still can't ignore the fact a delay more than half a year after being told it would get released last year that was a disaster.

dissapointed with
Well it seems to be again a bigger shot but with some extra anmiation like the Sol Rare that had this kinda swirling trail what i liked most on it. Sure it is again a big ball of energy but still different to the other gold blasters1. rare blaster
If i remeber it correctly it was planed to give 2 rares and they will have the tc items installed but so far unknown in the setup so there maybe was no need of another basic ne0n or they decided to make it a rare ship at a later point2. showing rare ne0n's and his abilities
3. one ne0n ship is missing probably reject
Well 2 options here:4. calling the system "unknown mantis system"
Well it was no more big secret that a fight against the Queen will come but what still is unknown if Vam Doom will play a major role in the story of TC4 as again he is in prision since the Sol Story conclused and there where so far no attempts from the Mantis to rescue him... even during the time they had the Ancients on their side so there is still room for smal surprises5. too much was showed in the trailer even the battle with the queen
Imo and many others those 3 ships are the worst of the TC lineup as their Items are not really the best to go for7. bobcat
8. bullfrog and panther
Can´t say much about Parsecs as i had only Puni when i played again and redesigned TC was released but it is noticable that they went into the direction to have either an RDX ship or have a ne0n to do the stories properly.9. ancient and parsec ships are not the perfect thing for vénar beginning. you need atleast rdx ships or directly ne0ns
positive with
Again maybe it is just me but at some points i kinda lost the story and felt more confused as the story seems to be... "strange" at some points without making much sense... but then again "mission wipe after completing a mission" + tons of useless mission updates without any info make it hard to follow the story as i tend to "read the story after it is done" as mostly during the mission there is not that much time to read it1. storyline from part 1 to part 3 was really good
From all ne0n´s definetly the most used ones for reasons and here and there aso a wolfhound who is at least decent enough to be used.3. humpback, thunderbird and hawkmoth
I think the main reason here is that the seize of devs did reduce over time as i remember that in early times the dev team was 2 or 3 times as strong as it is now and less devs = longer time to bring new contend out in combination with trying to manage 2(3) games at the same time so resources are constandly switched between those.how they could managed that they created v.a.g.m.d.s so quick and one single starsystem took so long that too much players left?
oops i forgot about wolfhound wolfhound.. i love this ship. its my favorit so far for supportWell it seems to be again a bigger shot but with some extra anmiation like the Sol Rare that had this kinda swirling trail what i liked most on it.

Well 2 options here:
Either they decided to really call it "unknown Mantis System" or they have a name but don´t want to reveal it until TC4 really drops (what is hopefully after Spaceball)
Well it was no more big secret that a fight against the Queen will come but what still is unknown if Vam Doom will play a major role in the story of TC4 as again he is in prision since the Sol Story conclused and there where so far no attempts from the Mantis to rescue him... even during the time they had the Ancients on their side so there is still room for smal surprises

For me a gripe is the part from Venar where you are forced to have a certain ne0n to even play the mission what was so far to my memory never the case that a mission required a certain ship (Siri Missions excluded)
Again maybe it is just me but at some points i kinda lost the story and felt more confused as the story seems to be... "strange" at some points without making much sense... but then again "mission wipe after completing a mission" + tons of useless mission updates without any info make it hard to follow the story as i tend to "read the story after it is done" as mostly during the mission there is not that much time to read it

However it was noticable that for each new system it took more and more time as the time inbetween each system nearly doubled each time the previous was released.
I think a reason for this is that with the implementation of more and more RDX ships that have TC tech in it that they start to replace the ne0n´s more and more. Basically the only players who may need to go for ne0n´s (aside from the Humpback) are new players who may not have access to those RDX ships atm until Christmas event comes again.I wonder why these neon signs are there anyway, almost no one flies them, these ships can't do any missions, they have such items that you don't even want to buy them, I don't mean that all of them have been replaced by rdx they could add a new company that would have new ships or parse ships, because I read once that after completing tc there will be parse ships with items from tc.
