Thus far, Garage has officially announced Marble Blast Online (essentially the XBL Arcade version, plus 11 additional maps), a graphically upgraded version of Think Tanks, and Wideload's action/puzzle game Cyclomite, with first-person shooter, real-time strategy, driving and puzzle games also in development, amongst others.

holy water!

I know it's hard to, but could you give us any estimated dates :P?

Also, will you add TGE support for more stuff that TT doesn't now or will it continue to be low-featured :P?

Any official modding support? open source (don't think so), at least the files like special.cs?

Umm, and try not to break current script support (perhaps even include some of them)... Just now I had finished ACASv3 with only 1 more bug to fix before release :P

Include small link to PTT2 in-game to bring new peeps to these forums?

Account-based game (IMPOSTOR FREE!)?

And make the tanks able to drive on objects and/or add tunnel support... What many people would love would be bridges or even houses/etc!

Also a new offline game with less boring missions

?

Yeah, many questions here but... What can I say! What I love more about this game is modding for it so.. :P
And so it's not only a graphics enhance :P, what I prefer is quality of the game itself, not graphical quantity ;)
:D

I guess you'll be using more up-to-date versions of TGE like 1.5.x? Or perhaps TGEA? If so, we should be expecting some nice boosts in gameplay and graphics :D

So yeah, everyone say thank you.

EDIT: Wait a minute, you're NOT going to make TT browser-based are you? If so, we should say goodbye to modding right? It seems InstantAction is just that

EDIT2:

Setting the Pricing
InstantAction won't have a standardized series of game prices, but Williams says most titles will come in under $20, with many in the single-digit dollar numbers. Because the platform will have open pricing, some games will offer base features for cheap, with add-ons that users can purchase. Many games will also offer free trials, so players can test them out before committing to a purchase.

Will TT be included in these "base features, pay more for rest" system? If so what would be these add-ons? New tanks? Mods? Solo-missions? Advantadges when playing like a stronger tank?

Don't think I don't like the news, I love it! It's just that having to pay extra for stuff like stronger tanks would just hurt the gameplay for me, but I don't think you'll go as far as that... Btw the only thing I'd be interested in buying for TT would be the TSL source ;)

EDIT3: [notaboutThinkTanks]

->from http://www.ripten.com/2007/10/26/first- ... actioncom/
Just when I thought the show was over, Josh gave me a sneak peak at a top secret 32 person FPS multiplayer game they are hard at work developing. No title as of yet, in fact I really canâ€™t say much more about it right now.

What's that? Seems nice, care to give us some info, even if it's as small as a screenshot :P?[/notaboutThinkTanks]

Brilliant! I have always thought one of TT's best characteristics was its simplicity. Now they're going to make it even simpler by putting it in a browser.

I wonder if they will keep the stand alone TT for an enhanced experience once the new victims get addicted. I also wonder how hosting will be handled in the browser version.

I don't think it's so brilliant, that is if they LOCK us to the web-browser version. Give us the choice ;)
I like to play fullscreen, and to be able to mod the game and turn it into what I want it to be. Remove this (by not letting us mod) and I don't think I'll be getting the game... Give me the choice of downloading and then I assure you you'll be getting those 20$ (or whatever the price is at that time) from me
