Desura News Update:

We also have the initial steering implementation in now for vehicles in water, with Sainte-Anne featuring a few drivable[sic] rubber boats. AI currently neglects them pretty much, the navigation logic needs a bit different approach than the on-ground vehicles, looking forward to work on that for 0.81. Hope I can squeeze in the "AI battle-taxi" feature for that too, can't wait to get into some beach assault action!
Also, the online servers now support persistent player profiles (per server), which means that if the server has been set to store the profiles over battles and map changes, you can have your stats, rank, mortars and weapons with you again when you reconnect. One of the official modulaatio-servers will be soon set up as something we call Invasion; players only join Green faction, they all start with 0 XP to fight through all the maps in randomized order, each map starting with Green faction having one base with some over capacity to get the invasion going, with XP and items carrying over map changes.
We'll be adding plenty of new items in the near future, we've been talking about vests, rare weapons, support items and new calls logically similar to mortar strikes, which will fit the persistent cooperative Invasion mode really well!

Exciting!

It's also quite cool to see the mix of old and new graphics.  

Looking forward to this one for sure!

Wow, I guess I didn't put to much effort into looking but the download site for Steam basically stated "oh you can download it here native client style, or you can use PoL." I will give that a go then! I suppose I've just been too lazy to try ;)

On topic, downloading this now!  Very excited!

As far as KS videos go, I loved this one!  These games really scare me, so I might support, but I don't know if I will play XD

Yeah it actually has a F2P version I believe which probably has a limited number of modes or something.

Love that you put the TotalBiscuit WTF right in the post!  Great idea!

I've had so much trouble with the Steam client through PoL.  I don't understand if there really is a difference between using PoL (or just WINE in general) and using the native client.  Does the native client still leverage WINE to run or is it really "native"?

Anyone tried the native client?

I can't get this to run at all!  It just says "installing directX" and then it goes right back to steam...I tried going to the experimental or beta channel and it says that those are password protected.

I really hope they do make it!  I am going to make an attempt to play their open beta right now...we'll see if it works.
