@MatrixLiteSys Good luck with it. We're going to be looking for early playtesters soon. What's the main thing you most want testers to tell you?
@ApprenticeCodex Cloud shadows would look great. One thing we found: fog that only hides is less interesting than fog that keeps showing what you last saw, going stale, until someone reports again. Worth a go once the layer works.
@DrydockDreams Smoke that tells you something is a lovely detail. From the ops room, a column of smoke on the camera was often the first sign of anything, well before the net caught up. Looks superb.
@SlitherineGames Accuracy against playability is the argument we have most. Our rule so far: keep the information as late and patchy as it really was, and make the tools for handling it easy to use. Good to see how you weighed it.
Listen on the site or in your podcast app: contactwaitout.com/making-contact…
Episode 1 of Making Contact. A helicopter about to lift, a crew that wants to go, and a call from the ground: ammunition and batteries first. Tom can't see the site. Every second he holds it feels like a minute. Then the first scenario, played from the chair.
@The_Gmeister812 @Bert_Plumswang Every ops room I sat in had a game going in a corner that never got finished. Ours was chess. Many interrupted games is about right.
@SlitherineGames Good read. Commanding only by what comes over the radio is hard to make playable without handing the player a clean picture. Nice to see how you got there. We’re chewing on the same problem from a modern ops room.

Contact: Wait Out is an ops room command game. You're the ops officer. Your soldiers are out on the ground and you are not. You get a radio, a drone feed, a helmet camera and a sand table you keep by hand. Two of us, building it in the open.
Contact. Wait out. Episode 0 of our podcast, now as a video. Two of us building an ops room command game: you're the ops officer, your platoon is out on the ground, and everything you know arrives late. Link below.
