I have a little surprise for you all. Tommorow we will release a Preview Release of the upcoming Fleet Operations 3.0. Now, whats a Preview Release?We threw everything half-done out what isn't either stable or is now still in progress, tested it and put in a package  So basicly you could also call it Fleet Operations 2.9 Beta or something. Why a Preview Release, why didn't you wait until everything is done?We want all the new features and races tested so that v3 will be bug free and rock-stable (though as far as we now they run fine in the PR). What are the difference between the PR and the upcoming final release?Unlike v3 final, the PR does NOT include: - Borg
The Borg are not included in this Version. We are still working on a full scale redo with many new features for the final Version 3.0 release. - Noxter
The Noxter are not included in this Version. There were some severe bugs within the Beta 2 Noxter. The Noxter will of course come back after a rework in a future version of Fleet Operations! - Special effects
Several special weapons effects, map objects and damage effects are still placeholders and will be replaced and advanced for the final Version 3.0 release - Starship and Station models
Many Federation Units got already replaced to fit the new Version 3.0 graphic look. You will still find some old models along with the new ones in this preview. - Non Player Races
The Tholians along with a few other NP forces are ready to be fought against. Prepare for them in Version 3.0 - User Interface Elements
Several improvements to the UI will be released in Version 3.0 - Voice Sets
Some unit sound sets for the Dominion are not yet done. Another voice set contest is planned before release of final v3.0. Check for news on how to participate and maybe your voice will be heard by all Fleet Operations players after the final version is released. - Dominion Music

Can't wait till it's out! (even a day, yes) Are the AI problems fixed? Or will that be a wait-till-3.0?
