Worms Armageddon is a turn-based strategy action that moves by moving a worm, randomly throwing a terrain, throwing a bomb or throwing a shell, defeating the opponent's worm or dropping it off the screen to win. It's a game. Originally released in 1997 by British game development studio Team17 in 1997, it is an extended version of the game ' Worms 2 ', which was released in January 1999 as a Windows PC version. After that, it has been ported to PlayStation, Dreamcast, Game Boy Color, and NINTENDO64.
The following eight points are the contents of version 3.8 update of Worms Armageddon.
◆01: Add option
◆02: Improvement of animation
In the 2D game Worms Armageddon, the frame rate was limited to a maximum of 50 fps. However, if you apply the version 3.8 patch, the game engine will correct the movements of worms and weapons between frames, making them appear to move more smoothly. You can see it well by looking at the following GIF animation comparing the behavior in version 3.8 (top) with the previous behavior (bottom).
◆03: Addition of window mode
Until now you could only play in full window mode, but now you can play in window mode. This eliminates the need to change screen resolutions or special settings, and makes it easier to capture windows for live play.
◆ 04: Consideration for live game distributors
In addition to window mode, it is possible to continue playing music even when the game window is inactive, and not to display the IP address on the game screen when playing in online mode. The added function was added.
◆05: CPU players can be added to online games
Until now, only human players could participate in online games, but by adding a CPU, you can play a large volume of online games even with a small number of people. Also, since it is possible to play the online mode only with the CPU, it is also possible to start the battle of the CPU in the online mode just for watching.
◆06: Preservation of terrain
Worms Armageddon will randomly generate terrain. From version 3.8, you can save a snapshot of the terrain at that point by typing '/map' in the in-game chat or using the Alt+Pause shortcut. If you load this snapshot, you will be able to play the same map at a later date.
◆07: Compatibility
Worms Armageddon is a game released in 1999, which was distributed on Steam in 2013. Therefore, the OS that has been officially supported until now was Windows XP, but this update officially supports Windows 10. In addition, Linux and Windows compatible software such as Wine and Proton can also be used. In addition, with the addition of the OpenGL renderer, the window mode resolution will no longer be hardware dependent.
◆08: Language support
Thanks to the efforts of the translation volunteers, the translation has been fully translated into Finnish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish in addition to English. Also, for Finnish, French, and Spanish, the 'Readme' document, which is the game's manual, has been translated.
The version 3.8 update includes a total of 370 fixes, 45 changes and 61 new features. The updated patch for version 3.8, which took more than 7 years to develop, will be officially released after a closed beta test.
