I was sitting here working on the final details for my wedding next week and i was browsing the team forums. Before my eyes I see the news of 1.3.5 material being called for. Now I know these guys have something special waiting for you all in this release. The beta testers got together and made a little movie for you all to see. It is a sweet trailer with some upcoming stuff for both 1.3.5 and 1.4 in it. I'd like to thank CrimsonGhost, Exobot, and the others who participated in making this for us.

Now along with this, Swatman and TaScO came up with a great idea...

We are having an influx of new players who dont know the maps, or the way to play HI as it was designed. I think the best way is to lead by example, and who better than the devs and testers themselves.

We would go over the maps, show the new players around, let them learn the objectives, and teach them to play as the developers designed it. We can hold this once a week or once every few weeks on one of the community servers.

So we will be doing a HI Education Night. This will be held twice a month during the second and third Tuesday of every month. You will have a chance to learn and speak with the testers/developers. This is definately a must for those who are looking for the real HI experience.

So why all this?
Well we have an update coming out really soon. Hostile Intent version 1.3.5 is going to take off in the next few days. Your read that right, the next few days.
Stay tuned for more including more of what was updated and of course, the changelog.
