Old World, Formerly "10 Crowns", Out!: A game that we're clearly a bit enamored with here at eXplorminate, Old World is set to release into Early Access at 11a EDT tomorrow, May 5th! As a gentle reminder, we'd love for those of you who plan to purchase Old World to use the creator tag "EXPLORMINATE" at checkout in the Epic Games Store or you can use THIS LINK HERE (we love you!).
Pax Nova eXits Early Access!: As it entered into v1.0, Pax Nova gained a lot of content, AI improvements, pacing improvements, and much more. Rob is pretty positive on it so far, but we will have our final critical take on it within the next couple of weeks.
Galactic Civilizations 3 v4.0 Opt-In Now Available!: Stardock has provided an Opt-In for their upcoming v4.0 update to their flagship 4X title. It improves how the planets look and makes a LOT of balance changes!
Stellaris Dev Diaries #177 and #178 Released: #177 outlined the changes to edicts coming and #178 outlined the changes to Federation Laws and more.
Godking: Master of the Rituals Updates: A few updates to this promising game have been released, including the latest Opt-In that adds a new faction and a lot of new sounds and sound effects. The updates are coming in hard and fast!
AI War 2 Reached v2.031 "Faction Color Choice": Lots of improvements and updates, including full GOG compatibility. Stay tuned for a continuance of Rob's Let's Play of it.
Topic of the ‘Cast: Old World First, the bad:
Epic Store
Memory Leak
Drexy’s issues
The good:
Orders system
Events
Units have different attacks
The pacing

Join the boys as they dive deep on the eXploration mechanic of 4X games and try to figure out what works, what doesn't, and what could be improved!
Outline:
The Newsworthy Stuff: * Old World, Formerly “10 Crowns”, Formally Announced: Huge news out of Mohawk Games was the announcement of Old World, which was formerly introduced as 10 Crowns. While it plays eXtremely well and has a huge amount of potential, some players have been very open in their dislike for Old World‘s Epic Games Store eXclusivity. Early Access coming SOON! * Age of Wonders: Planetfall – Invasions Announced: A full-sized expansion is coming to Planetfall, featuring world events, invasions, and a new race, the Shakarn, a lizard-like alien race bent on revenge! Expect more as we’re able to reveal more! * Galactic Civilizations 3 v4.0 Dev Diary: We’re finally getting information on what v4.0 has in store for us Galactic Civilizations 3 fans! Lots of changes to how the early game will work, planet management, and more! Check the notes! * Interstellar: Space Genesis Patched to v1.1.2: Some quality of life improvements and other bug fixes have made it into this quickly-improving game. * Speaking of Let’s Plays, we’ve recently got our hands on the upcomingShadow Empire, a pseudo-4X/Grand Strategy hybrid, and “Battlemode” Ben has been giving it the tutorial series! * Alliance of the Sacred Suns v.9.1.2 has dropped: A pretty good summary of the additions can be found right here:
Fairly large patch uploaded – .9.1.2. Fixes a bunch of military-related UI and logic issues, and adds some additional functionality. Also rebalances the economy so it doesn’t crash so hard early. Check it out! #indiegame#games #gamedev #indiegamedev #unity #gamedevelopment
This Episode’s Topic: eXploration

The Weekly eXchange is dead. Long live The Weekly eXchange!
In its place is a new, non-scheduled 4X gaming podcast, "The 4Xchange". This podcast is already seeing a total revamp of its format. Instead of just news, each week we'll have a topic we dive deep in to.
This week, we bring on special guest Ray Fowler as we discuss why Master of Orion 1 is the space 4X to beat and what makes it so special.
Outline The Newsworthy Stuff: * Interstellar Space: Genesis released v1.1 in “unstable beta” format: There are so many improvements made that it’d be hard to list them all and why should we when that link will list them all? Graphics, heroes, bug fixes and more! * Fort Triumph to release on April 16th: A game that Rob has played a bunch and really enjoys its “Heroes of Might and Magic meets X-Com” gameplay, it will finally exit Early Access in less than two weeks! * Dev Diary #174 “Federations is Out, Now What?” and Dev Diary #175 “Space Fauna” for Stellaris released: Paradox has given some hints as to what comes next after Federations in #174 and then shows off some upcoming changes to space fauna in #175. * Alliance of the Sacred Suns “Military System Part 2: The Ground Combat System” Dev Diary: A gigantic outline of what’s to come in AotSS for its ground combat system. A lot to digest and read about, but it sounds like a simple, yet effective, system for ground combat in this very promising game. * https://youtu.be/ssine8ECV0Y: Amplitude Studios’ upcoming historical 4X, Humankind, received a new “Shaping Your Legacy” video on how you’ll obtain victory in Humankind. * Godking: Master of the Rituals Released: Out now in Early Access for the too-high price of $40
Discussion on Master of Orion 1 and Remnants of the Precursors: * **Why Master of Orion 1 is still very, very good:
Simple mechanics
Very little micromanagement
Subtle, yet significant racial asymmetry
The importance of fleets
Not overly bloated
And more...**
Remnants of the Precursors will be available FOR FREE on Easter, April 12th, at www.RemnantsofthePrecursors.com.

This 4Xchange podcast thing is already seeing a total revamp of its format. Instead of just news, each week we'll have a topic that we dive deep in to. First up, the boys discuss how'd they'd create the perfect 4X and soon realize how in over their heads they truly are.
Recent 4X news items:
-
Stellaris Federations is out. Met with mostly favorable reviews on Steam. Our review was unfortunately taken down due to plagiarism.
-
Imperiums: Greek Wars looking for beta testers. Inquire within.
-
We featured the first-ever look at Godking: Master of the Rituals gameplay. It appears to take some influence from both Master of Magic and the Dominions series and is pretty darn promising.
-
Thea 2: The Shatteringreceived update Build 0657, which added a bunch of new content and fixes.
-
Amplitude Studios showed off Humankind’s territory claiming system in this video.
-
Dominions 5 received a huge update in the form of version 5.4.1, which among many, many other things, added a new nation, new heroes, new rituals, new units, new…everything! Check it out here!
What mechanics would we steal from other 4X games to make the “one great 4X”?
- Endless Legend’s faction asymmetry?
- Colonization’s end game?
- Alpha Centauri’s setting?
- Ascendancy’s racial active abilities?
- Sword of the Stars’ different stardrives or its random tech tree?
- Distant Worlds’ scale?

Rob was lucky enough to sit down with Derek Paxton, now of Stardock, but formerly of Fall From Heaven 1/2 fame. If you're unfamiliar with Fall From Heaven, it was an incredibly detailed and well-received mod for Civilization 4 and is still considered one of the best mods for any game, ever.
Rob and Derek talk about Derek's move into game development, the games he's worked on, and some hints at what's to come.
