For this week's livestream we have something a bit different. Our friend Liam has challenged me to a fight to the death in Planetary Annihilation and we'll be livestreaming that (possibly) epic match on Twitch.

Livestream highlights:

The Planetary Annihilation match went surprisingly well, I won twice!

If strategy isn't your thing I also livestreamed some Interstellar Marines. It was so scary you could say I "livescreamed" it... Okay, I'll shut up now.

I'd like to warn you guys that I'm really not all that great at RTS games and I am quite certain of the winner already, but at least you might get a laugh or two from the ridiculous mistakes I make during the game. Before the match we have some time to play other games, such as Ziggurat, which just got out of Early Access and maybe test out the new Interstellar Marines maps.

I'm quite proud of myself at the moment. This was a good confidence building exercise and I might actually try to play RTS games a bit more in the future.

There are PA tournaments run by exodus esports.

The issue Samsai had is caused by bug FS#2392 (be sure to add a vote). Uber with Coherent's help added a hotfix/workaround in the 1.0 release which has fixed it for the most part, but it does still occur for some people more then others.

Alright, I've sent my vote their way. Hopefully that issue will soon get fixed.

Thanks for the great stream, pity I wasn't able to see it live, yet I'm glad that you put VOD up.
I've never had much interest in Total Annihilation series but this picked my interest in PA. Sad that they don't have a demo on steam... but I might pick up the full version in the beginning of next month.

Offtopic:
Pity that devs don't offer demos any more nowadays. It was a great way of testing out how the game runs on your system before buying imho. True that it takes away precious dev-time however I would think that it's not that difficult to make a demo version that only provides the first level or 15min of gameplay. (like Mafia2 did)
