Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts work in progress.

I see this is now on Steam as early access...$31.49.  Tempting.

Well worth it at that price, and the skeleton of the campaign is now available. There are also 50+ playable missions and a good mission builder.

For those that have been playing the beta...  here is word from the devs on distribution of Steam Keys... for me this raised more questions than answered:



12/6/2021

Dear Admirals,

We would like to share information about the distribution of Steam Keys of Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts to all pre-order backers who purchased the game via Xsolla store on our website.

There are two new changes on Steam rules which we must follow. The first one is that the keys can only be distributed to you only after the game goes live and is playable on Steam. The second change is that we can no longer order a full batch of keys in one go and have to order the keys in smaller batches that are delivered after the game goes live, as mentioned.

Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts is planned to be released on Steam this week and so we estimate that we need about 4 weeks to distribute all the keys to you gradually. We have already received the first large batch of keys from Steam and are waiting for 3 more batches to be delivered (Steam delivers 1 batch a week).

We want to assure you that your Steam keys will be granted as promised and while we are delivering them the Xsolla launcher version will be FULLY supported with all the new content and have the same version as on Steam until all keys are distributed.

Thank you again for all the support, feedback and patience.

On behalf of Game Labs,

Nick Thomadis

Hmm do backers have to do anything or are they being sent to everyone who backed?

It also sounds like the Xsolla version may eventually go away...?

Good questions that I too would like answers to.

It's on STEAM!   :o and 31.49... VERY TEMPTING.

Client issues aside, the game is ambitious and fascinating and fun now. 31.49 is a no brainer for anyone interested in naval combat, dreadnoughts, the era (1890-1940) or any combo of those.

Got it this morning. Curious to see how it compares to Rule the Waves.

Please post impressions.  This is on my short list.

I am curious as well as I have not played much rule the waves since the demo years ago.

Yes solops...please, I've been on the fence for a long time regarding Rule the Waves. Enquiring minds want to know!  ???

Bad news. I am deep into Shadow Empire and it will be a while before I get to Dreadnoughts.  I did boot it up and it is very pretty.   Options are for tutorials, the new campaign function and custom battles. Cannot say much past that.
