You can host dedicated servers if you follow this guide: http://steamcommunity.com/app/246700/discussions/0/558747288231160807/ Thanks for the continued support, it's been quite an adventure for everyone! Ragequit CorporationStrike Vector EX s dogfighting blasts into open betaJul 10, 2017 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunStrike Vector EX, an expanded version of 2014’s flashy game about transforming ships dogfighting through sci-fi industrial structures, has launched a free open beta test. The EX releases is updated and expanded with new modes including, crucially, a singleplayer campaign. The original game suffered the fate of so many small multiplayer-only games, failing to achieve a critical mass of players. Which is a bit of a shame, as our former Jim (formerly ours, not formerly Jim – he’s neither dead nor living under a new name) quite liked it. … Strike Vector 1.0.4382 "Orbital Mayhem" UpdateFeb 3, 2015 - Community Announcementshttp://i.imgur.com/9Kd0nJb.jpg Pilots!

They all, naturally, do fighting. Not each other, mind–others of their kind. None of these games will let you e.g. pilot a fighter jet battling winged vampires. More’s the pity, really. Multiplayer futureplane game Strike Vector and realish FPS Insurgency have respectable sales to accompany their free weekend trials, and technically human vs. vamp arenakiller Nosgoth does too but that’ll be free-to-play at launch so it’s less special. … Strike Vector cards and badges are available!Aug 4, 2014 - Community AnnouncementsHello guys!

In that mode, you have to destroy a huge enemy structure while defending yours. You'll have to constantly adapt your style and switch between attack and defense on the fly. It's very fun to play and it also leaves some space for the rookies so be sure to give it a try. For the challenge addicts, we added one more challenge pack and it's pretty challenging. Again we tweaked the amount of Kebs you get for a kill. Now, you get more depending on your target's metal (Steel +15, Silver +30, Gold +45, Platinum +60, etc). Also, we fixed all the issues related to multi-monitor displays. It looks great on 3 monitors, I wish I could afford that... We hope you'll enjoy all the new stuff and we wish you loads of fun playing Strike Vector. Cheers. Improvements and New Features - Demolition game mode added. - Warship map added. - Brand new pack of challenges added (I mean CHALLENGE). - Multi-monitor support : menus, huds and other display features now support ultra-wide resolutions. (see Multi-monitor support) - Kebs For Kill amount now includes prestige metal of the target (a player with Steel rewards more than one with rust, and so on). - Kebs For Kill displayed in white on the HUD for a better readability. - DeathMatch HUD displays Kills and Rank. - Team score progress bar revamped for all game modes. - Breifing/Debriefing screens : PlayerProfile buttons added (now you know who you played with). - Antonio calls system added. - On-HUD score display revamped. - No life bar display on ghosted Vectors. - Menus : Training Flight now under Solo Game. - Menus : Training Flight map selection fix. - Input Options Menu : Smooth mouse option added. - Server Find Menu : Server list now sorted on the fly, with bug fixes. - Challenge mode : the subsequent gate is now totally invisible to avoid confusion. - Challenge mode : the gate's objective text and visibility are improved. - Challenge mode : breifing text modified. - Challenge mode : Tutorial challenges renamed as "training" - Challenge mode : Basic training challenges now with Antonio assistance. - Challenge mode : Training drone first shoot time fix. - Swarm missile Hack protection (thanks BOOst). - Destructibles don't take blast damage behind walls. - Suicide command disabled. - Hit feedbacks on destructible objects removed when they're destroyed.Strike Vector 1.0.3803 “LowLife Bar” PatchJun 17, 2014 - Community AnnouncementsHi, this time we focused on improving damages feedback and readability (damages you take and damages you get). So we added lifebars on the HUD and damage indicators to make clear where the danger comes from. We also made the Vectors invincible when spawning for a short time. This should discourage spawn-killers on corridor maps a bit. Another important tweak is the kill difference dependant Keb reward : to summarize it, lower-score players will give you less Kebs when killing them, so you'd rather attack someone your own strength (or higher). We hope you'll enjoy this little update, Have fun. Fixes and New Features - destructible tankers, freighters and bonus drones grant Kebs (All modes except SoloChallenge) - Opponent lifebar added. It's displayed for a short amount of time when you hit an enemy. - Hit feedback (Crosshair white cross) added on destructible objects, Bonus drones and traning drones. So you can make the difference between destructible and static scenery. - Hit feedback (Crosshair white cross) turn Red when damaging yourself or team-mate. - New damage feedback effect. The new effect indicates more clearly the direction to the aggressor. The old one was a bit unprecise and confusing so we reduced it. - The Keb reward for a kill now depends on the relative kill-score of the belligerents. An opponent with less kills will grant you less Kebs, an opponent with more kills will grant more Kebs. - The Keb reward is displayed on the HUD target, just below the Player's nickname. - Impact effects played beyond the weapon's range fixed. - Spawn sequence : 5 secs of invincibility. It's the same effect as the blue crate, you're not really invincible but damages are drastically reduced. We added a HUD indicator to let you know when it ends. - Homing missiles unlocking : HarrierMode Strafe-boost AND JetMode barrel Roll both unlock incoming missiles. Timing is crucial : wait for the continuous warning sound to trig your action. - Homing missiles unlocking : A succesful dodge action unlocks all locked missiles at once and starts a 3 secs period of "unlockability". - Help Menu : HUD Help page updated. - Death panel : wrong killer display fixed. - Death panel : display after a switch team fixed. - Death log : suicide displays only one PlayerName. - Gravity loading screen : shameless kinky lens-flare added.Midweek Madness - Strike Vector, 50% OffJun 17, 2014 - AnnouncementSave 50% on Strike Vector during this week's Midweek Madness*!

I have a long, over-document fondness for that genre of game that straddles all types of non-simulatory flight combat, and although it’s taken me a while to catch up with Strike Vector, I’m glad I did. Back in the times of Forsaken and Descent, I would sink lifetimes into these kinds of games, and Strike Vector – a multiplayer take on the idea – feels very much like a cry from that distant and beautifully three-dimensional past. But does that invocation of the classics lead to greatness?

See you on the battlefield Mercenaries !Strike Vector Lands On Steam, All DLC To Be Free (!)Jan 29, 2014 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunI was going to poke fun at the name Strike Vector to take some pressure off the colossal responsibility that is introducing a videogame news post, but then I decided to make sure I knew all meanings of the word “vector” and nope, I absolutely do not. A strike vector might be an actual thing, as my education in the field of vectorology is woefully lacking. I do, however, know one thing for sure: Strike Vector The Videogame is unarguably stunning, especially given that it’s a relatively small indie effort. Also, its unique brand of transforming, sky-city-deforming shootyblams is now on Steam. Hurrah! (more…) Now Available on Steam - Strike VectorJan 28, 2014 - Product ReleaseStrike Vector is Now Available on Steam! With a distinct old school feel, reminiscent to games such as Crimson Skies, Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament, Strike Vector will let you test your reflexes and skills against your friends. Team flight and mutual assistance is required to fulfill your missions but individual aiming and piloting skills are also mandatory.
