Consortium - Updates #10 - #13, Another Rifle, More Characters and New Tiers

by Myrthos, 2013-04-08 12:22:50

Here are some updates for the Consortium Kickstarter, which is currently little over $5K away from being funded.
There is some information on a new rifle, the Kinetic Assault Rifle (K.A.R.).

Then there is some more information on two in-game characters focussing on some of the antagonists in the game: Kiril Angelov and the Homeless Mercenaries.

And finally some new tiers are announced.

  • OTHER PLATFORMS ($10)  Receive the iDGi Discoveries Document upon game launch + one copy of the game on a platform other than PC, once a port has been made and is available. The Discoveries document is the perfect thing to read before even playing the game!  NOTE: ALL tiers at $17 and above will receive the PC game upon launch & have access to one other copy of the game, on a different platform, when available (delivery date on this is for the iDGi Discoveries document only)
  • *KICKSTARTER EXCLUSIVE* SPECIAL EDITION (PC only) ($17) - Digital Game Manual + Custom main menu content with exclusive credits, behind the scenes video, photos and more. The game itself will be identical to the game you get in lower tiers - ONLY the main menu is changed. Much of the same behind-the-scene content will also be found on the Special Edition DVD (see our Add-Ons). This version of CONSORTIUM will never be available outside of Kickstarter. NOTE: All higher tiers will also receive this version of the game.
  • MAKE A NAME FOR YOURSELF (limited 250 @ $65) - You will get everything from the "CONSORTIUM KNIGHT" tier + have your full name included in the game lore, discoverable via the in-game information console. NOTE: This tier is exclusive and will not be available to higher tiers.
