Worms World Party Remastered Update #1
Hello Wormers,
We really hope that you’ve been enjoying Worms World Party Remastered over the last few months. We been listening to your feedback and we know that there are ways that the game can be improved and we’ve been working towards making it a better experience.
• Frontend upgraded for a high resolution experience at 1080p.
• The game now runs at 60 fps on recommended specs
• Alt tab issue improved: alt-tabbing/minimizing no longer breaks the game but you will have to click the WWPR shortcut to get back into the game
• Added control scheme page for keyboard in the Option menu
• Various improvements on the pad controls
• Various improvements on the mouse sensitivity
Some of the issues we encountered ended up being harder to fix than we first thought, which delayed this update, but we are committed to supporting Worms World Party Remastered and the awesome Worms Community. We appreciate your patience. Now go drop some concrete donkeys on your enemies...

This is from the WWPR steam forum:
Ladieeees and geeeeentlemen, may I present to you, Thurbo 2.0: Remastered! The new and improved Thurbo now comes with 200% Team17 fanboism and, of course, up to even 400% anti-W:A attitude! Buy it now and get access to the T17 SuperSheepGroup, it is THE group for all of you sheep-minded people out there!

Quotewill 4.0 even ever come out? when it does it was supposed to be compatible with WWP, right?
I'm assuming you haven't heard of the new Worms? Worms WMD... It's basically Worms Armageddon but less buggy and more of everything, even the roping is just like W:A. Worms WMD actually looks like a really well made game. You should check it out.

If T17 somehow managed to pull a miracle out their asses and make a game in our opinions better than WA, that would be a good thing not a bad thing
True, but it could hurt W:A's player base, which would be terrible. It would not be a problem at all if the new game was basically the same game but improved, then there would be no need for W:A anymore. But it would most likely not be like that, it would be good but different and so not have all the things W:A has to offer and therefore the community would be split
Lol, it's tricky. But this is pretty useless speculation though 
Even if there ever will be a game like that, it won't be developed by Team17 unless they change their ways completely.edit: And I hope HHC or anyone else is not going to buy the new one until they prove they will fix all the bugs and until the game's performance is solid. We should not support their shitty way of treating their fans. They're known for that shit and it won't stop as long as we keep giving them moneys for a few shits and giggles the new games provide. The WWP "remaster" too, wtf was that, that shit was literally the Hitler of game releases. And closing the forums etc. We need to not give in to the bullshit

« on: July 31, 2015, 10:54 AM »There's also turrets..You didn't get my point at all. It was just an example how to do the new vehicles better if they gotta be in the game. I never said I wanted more vehicles on the battlefield, just more variation and them not being a dumbed down shitty game mechanic. In fact I don't even know if I like vehicles in a Worms game.
But still, this is a worms game, not a vehicle vs vehicle game. They are a weapon like the other weapons you have. If they would make more the whole worm vs worm gameplay would be lost. Cause in essence it's a game 'like' WA, like the worms we all know and love.
If you want something completely different, try Crazy Golf

People here be whining about how's it not more like the old WA, you whine about how it's not completely different. Make up your minds lol.Nope, I didn't whine about that at all, I "whine" about today's Team17 being incompetent at making interesting gameplay and screwing up the glorious potential of what a Worms game could be. I don't want them to do a new and improved W:A, because they've proven many times of not being capable of doing anything even close to that, they don't even understand what makes W:A so special.
Take the game for what it is. It's not ever going to be identical to WA. If you want that... wait for 4.0 to finish.

And it's definitely innovative as well. Who of us would have thought of adding buildings and tanks? And to fit them nicely into the dynamics of a standard worms game?Haha. I would've dreamed of more back in 1999 when wondering what a Worms game would be like in 2015. Team17 is riding with the nostalgia and the fact that the sole idea behind Worms gameplay is so fantastic that there will always be players and praise, no matter how shitty the games are, as long as there isn't any real competition in the genre.
Then again if an actually really good Worms-type game would come, it would potentially hurt W:A community, so I'd prefer 4.0 over that.
TL;DR What I'm saying is that IMO the new games are really low-standard shit for casual players, which doesn't really matter to me, since I have W:A, BUT I wish they would also speed up the 4.0 process while doing them new games.

« on: July 31, 2015, 08:49 AM »in worms armageddon it's so much skill to know how ur opponent is going to slide/bounce off a terrain, but from that WMD video we can see the worms just awkwardly stick in the first pixel they collide with
This. Probably the biggest singular reason the gameplay looks like such a chore in this video.
Also since they're clearly still trying to simulate realistic(ish) physics, why not make the vehicles have actual realistic wheels and stuff to make it, you know, fun and interesting? Instead of press right arrow to move right, press space to shoot missiles that go straight at where you aim ignoring the wind.
I like how these new things like building and tanks are somehow ridiculously big new features. If the developer was someone else with even slightly competent coding skills and a vision to make an interesting game, there would be several types of customizable vehicles which all have different physics feel to them and different weapons/utilities etc. And other new cool features/weapons.
There are seriously hundreds of impressive indie games made in the past couple of years alone (made be like 1-2 dudes on their free time), that have so much more innovation and uniqueness in them. Of course it's just one video, but we all know how dull and incompetent Team17 are these days.
Still, gotta give em credit for trying to make some improvements.

Looks like it might be better than Reloaded/Revolution, but that is not saying much at all.
Some positive changes:
- Physics, worms fly longer distances for example.
- Wind meter seems to have 21 stages, not freaking 9!
- Back to 2D and the worms and their animations don't look as annoying as in Reloaded.
- Bigger maps.
- Better UI, still pretty shit and consolish.
- New stuff like the buildings. The tanks seem unecessary and boring though.
Yes.No room for the skill development, only in W:A you can do crazy stuff which are practiced and polished by years of experience.
You can tell that by the video footage?

Thank you so much Plutonic for creating and updating this great tool!
Things I'd love to see added some day:
1. Ability to accurately change the number of colours would be really handy. For example now if you want to have 64 colours or less (no visual glitches), you have to do it yourself with Photoshop/other software.
2. Island maps with 2 or more islands, not just 1 big one.
3. Layered cavern maps
4. A way to have less complex, "asymmentric" and not so stuffy Island/Cavern maps, like the default in-game map generator sometimes generates.
All of these are not big deals tho, just some suggestions
