A World Apart expands the world of Universal Combat and features new vehicles, weapons, and character classes. Originally there were plans for a boxed retail only stand-alone version which would contain the full product, including printed materials (manual, keyboard sheet) as well as the (smaller) download only version which requires a previous install of any Universal Combat version but the agreement with DreamCatcher distributor was cancelled. 3000AD Inc. retains the rights to the add-on version, priced at $29.99. The add-on version will (during installation) automatically convert all previous Universal Combat scenarios (Roam, Campaign & Instant Action), allowing them to be played using the new UCAWA engines. This add-on gives the hardcore Battlecruiser fan base a new advanced Battlecruiser type game using newer and more advanced technologies. The new graphics engine, as it now fully support DirectX 9, unlike the initial product. New features include new shader based lighting, glow and environment mapping (in space, you will see the surrounding space skybox reflected objects in the scene, etc.) render paths; along with normal and bump maps support for various high end assets. A World Apart adds 16 new missions playable as Terran/Insurgent Commander or Elite Force Pilot career. Additionally there are 16 new Instant Action scenarios, and two co-op specific multiplayer space-based scenarios with support for up to 32 players. | ||
