The new release is more like a massive bowl of soup.  The main dish.

Arena mode is more like a giant breadbowl that said soup comes in.  It's an integral part of the release.

I'll finally be able to test pikes vs sharks vs carp.

Also, firemen vs magmamen vs HFSmen.

Unicorn vs GCS vs Elephant?

[Sysice]

Giant Elecarpman versus uni-spirit of pirkfigma.
I already can't wait... and the release will get even better!

Toady would you consider adding support in the RAWS for the next version for:

A) Allowing more things to be detested by dwarves including some form of a TAG for modders so that I could make dwarves potentially detest other creatures that aren't vermin or detest/dislike certain metals or even objects etc.

B) Allowing modders to somehow address the average amount of dislikes/likes of dwarves for each dwarf in a similar manner to the personality system? 10-50-100 (min, average, max)?

I know this is mostly just pointless fluff but I adore the pointless fluff. The dwarves personalities are what makes me keep coming back to this game and I try to base my mod around giving them more potential things to like. If it wouldn't take much more effort would you pretty please consider adding it in?

Urist McImmigrant has been unhappy recently. He was talked to by a detestable creature recently. Urist McImmigrant like green glass, microcline, and star sapphires. He absolutely detests Dwarfs for their illogical mega projects.

...
Urist McImmigrant has been filled with self-loathing lately?

The current system of likes/dislikes probably doesn't have much of a future, mostly because it doesn't make sense to label a creature as "hateable" without regard for who's doing the hating.  For instance, dwarves might be inclined to hate trolls, but goblins like them.  Likewise for items, materials, etc.  I think the likes/dislikes will end up being tied in to entity-specific pricing and that kind of thing, to account for the cultural differences that shape creatures' preferences.

Wow, there goes Aqizzar, selfishly delaying development yet again.

I vote we tie him up and leave him gagged in a walled-off closet until the release comes out.

That might piss him off enough to go berserk and smash the closet, then you've got yourself a an ultra-pissed Aqizzar crawling around your walls...

He can shatter them with his chin.

[Greiger]

Just lock him in a nice room with platinum furniture, a well, and a drop point for some food.  That way he won't tantrum and cause any issues.

(Psst. Don't worry Aqizzar, I'll secretly drop some books in with the food from time to time. I liked the screenshots.)

This way we prevent him from hammering causing more delays, while at the same time we don't have to worry about skeletons in the closet and getting a replacement Aquizzar next migrant wave.
