Ah good to see a new update to Congress infinity. I’d like a way of adding or deleting districts as I have a lot of scenarios in the works.
Fixed bug related to adding party to ballot, but then not being able to set percentages.
@SANC,
Thanks for this feedback – noted.
Updated screen border graphics.
Will be getting election night calls?
@Aron,
That feature isn’t planned for this upcoming release.
2016 Senate, 2014 Senate, 2014 House > updated issue attribute icons.
Main Screen > fixed bug where wasn’t displaying progress on Ad creation, Surrogate creation, and so on.
2016 Senate > fixed both incumbent Senators being Democratic.
House 2014 > Surrogates > John Boehner Fundraising 3 -> 4.
are we adding any new scenarios to this?
Senate 2016. I had researched 2 scandals, but I couldn’t leak the 2nd one. I had to leak the first one before the second “leak” button would work.
Oh, it was 1.7.9, obviously. I’m just letting you know for this patch. I’m not quite sure where to put bug reports.
Estimated release date changed to Saturday, January 3rd.
I was playing House 2014 and Unions was in my theme. I got a negative news article (campaign too negative? of course) even though I was boasting about my position on unions. The issues I was attacking on were Health Care and Tax Rates.
And in the same game I got 219 seats but didn’t get on the highscore board even though there were only 2 other highscores on it. I don’t know if this matters but the other highscores were when I played as the Republicans but I got 219 as the Democrats.
@SANC,
Thanks for this – got it.
@Aron,
For this release, a House 2016 initial campaign is planned.
How long is it until we get a 2010 or 2012 cycle added to the game?
@Aron,
I don’t have an ETA. We’re adding the second 2016 first, then we’ll probably start working our way back (so 2012, 2010, and so on).
Added initial House 2016 campaign.
