Discovery 4.86 Storyline: Kusari in 818 A.S.

Posted By: Igiss @ Jul 21 2010, 04:54 PM
Development of Discovery Freelancer 4.86 is still underway. I must admit that this summer was not the most active for our development team so far, but we are making significant progress, and in a month or so should be able to show you much more of what we actually got.

Meanwhile, we continue to post the storyline parts of 4.86 to inform you of the changes that await in the next mod version. This one is about the events that are going to happen in Kusari in 818 A.S., and about the state of Kusari factions. After getting involved into a brief but devastating conflict with Gallia, there was a coup in New Tokyo which put an end to the former government's militaristic policy. With its economy in deep crisis and its military power compromised by two wars, Kusari barely had forces to defend its own borders. New Kusari leaders did not only rush signing a truce with Bretonia, but also attempted to establish trade relations with Gallia.

You can find our first storyline announcement (dedicated to Gallia invading the Tau systems) by following this link.

To access the story post from the forum's front page or from the website, use the following link:

Discovery 4.86: Kusari in 818 A.S.

If you are browsing the forum, you should see it already as a second post of this thread (after this introduction). Feel free to comment and share your opinions!

Discovery 4.86 system map - Updated

Posted By: Igiss @ Jun 16 2010, 05:13 PM
Today we release the complete version of the system map for Discovery Freelancer 4.86: The Exiles. The map was created by Blodo. As you may be aware, an incomplete version of the system map was leaked some time ago without intention. Differences of this version are mostly cosmetical: some errors and misprints were corrected.

IPB Image


You can view the whole map by following this link.

Update:
The map was updated with numerous fixes for system paths and spelling errors. Thanks to everyone who reported the mistakes!

We also present a .png version of the updated map that you can download right here.

New Discovery website is live!

Posted By: Igiss @ Jun 7 2010, 09:05 PM
Today we launch a new version of Discovery’s official website. The address is the same as before: http://discoveryfl.com. The new website uses the Wordpress engine. All posts and pages were transferred to it from the old site, which will be available for some time at http://discoveryfl.com/old. This new site will not be linked to the forum user database, however, you will be able to register with your Facebook account and leave comments and questions. We will continue to post news on the Discovery Gaming Community forums as well.

IPB Image


Along with official Discovery news, the website will feature blogs for Discovery development team, 24/7 server admin team, and for selected posts of our users. If you wish to become an author and contributor, please contact me at igissmail@gmail.com. In most cases we won’t be able to post multi-part RP stories and other lengthy materials. However, short stories, gameplay event reports, interesting screenshots and (especially) videos will be appreciated.

In addition to that, Discovery gets a Facebook application where all website updates will be posted as well. This application works the same way as any Facebook app or fan page: you can bookmark it, share it with friends, post your comments, and “like” it to become a fan and receive the news without even visiting our websites. Something you could use if you want to take a brief break from Disco.

The wiki, forums and other web services will not be affected by the change. However, you should be aware that we may be relocating the forums to another host in the near future, and you should store valuable attachments, avatars, photos, PMs and posts locally in case anything goes wrong. The posts and PMs will most probably be transferred without issues. However, the files stored on the board may be lost.
We will update you on the status of Discovery 4.86 development soon enough. Stay tuned!

Discovery 4.86 Storyline: Tau Conquest

Posted By: Igiss @ May 10 2010, 09:56 PM
A lot of time has passed since we last updated you on the progress of Discovery Freelancer 4.86 development. While the process is complex and slow (in fact slower than we anticipated), we start sharing the details on the mod's storyline and locations, and we start today.

IPB Image


Why The Exiles? The name of the new version mainly refers to the fate of the Council, faction that was responsible for breaking the 700-year long isolation of Gallia from Sirius. Now, when Gallia gathered its forces for a strike that Council had nothing to counter with, the faction has to abandon its bases in Languedoc and flee for the Tau sector of Sirius space. So, first of all, "The Exiles" are hundreds of thousands of Council members and civilians fleeing from Gallic wrath.

"The Exiles" has a number of other meanings as well (like it was with with Reunion): more groups and factions will be forced to abandone their homes and seek refuge elsewhere. But... enough speculations for today.

If you open the thread belonging to this news post (or click "View Comments"), you will find the first part of the storyline for Discovery 4.86, dealing exlusively with the new Gallic offensive in Languedoc and in Tau worlds. More details on Gallia, Bretonia, Kusari and all other regions will be presented in a form of separate announcements once they're ready.

Discovery featured in the largest Russian gaming magazine

Posted By: Igiss @ Apr 14 2010, 11:49 AM
Igromania, the largest Russian video gaming magazine, has featured Discovery as one of the 10 top mods released or updated in the year 2009. The article is available in issue 4'2010 released in the beginning of April. The same article in slightly shortened form was also published in a biweekly Igromania Light magazine in the end of March.

IPB Image


You can view the scan of the article here. It is in Russian. Unfortunately, Igiss was listed as the only developer insted of the Disco Dev Team because that's how dev information is currently displayed on ModDB.com. I'll be working to fix that issue in future.

We're listed among the following mods (links lead to ModDB): NeoTokyo for Half-Life 2, Star Wars: Galactic Warfare for Call of Duty: MW2, FIFA Total Reality 09 for Fifa Manager 09, Median XL for Diablo, Third Age - Total War for Medieval 2: Total War, Out of Hell for Unreal Tournament 2004, Cube Experimental for Fallout 3, MechWarrior: Living Legends for Crysis, and Nameless Mod for Deux Ex. Since media attention to mods is mostly limited to a few most popular action games that have multiple well-known mods (mainly Half-Life and Half-Life 2), it's good to see a selection that contains multiple games representing multiple genres, featuring older titles among new ones.

With a circulation of 180,000, Igromania is the largest gaming magazine not only in Russia but in Europe as well. The magazine is published since 1997. The circulation of Igromania Light is 25,000. For both monthly and biweekly edition, Discovery Freelancer 4.85 full version was featured on the magazines' DVD disk along with Freelancer Mod Manager.
