In a recent interview with Gaming Dead, Arcen Games’ Chris Park, developer of the eight player co-op massive RTS title AI War: Fleet Command elaborated on how he’s implementing a post-launch support model in the form of free monthly DLC updates in the interest of seeing the game become the largest strategy title out there. Park explained:
“AI War: The Zenith Remnant will release in January, and then for AI War it will just be the monthly free DLC until later in 2010, when we’ll see another expansion. Expect that cycle to continue for at least 2-5 years, or as long as there is player interest — AI War already has more scope than a great many strategy games, but I’m interested in seeing it becoming the largest one around by several orders of magnitude over the years.”

Amazing news folks, Gaming Dead recently had the opportunity to pull away Chris Park–head honcho of Arcen Games–from his work long enough to pick his brain on a few topics. Even better, he was kind enough to provide plenty to snack on, including new info on his ever evolving space strategy game AI War: Fleet Command, its upcoming expansion The Zenith Remnant, and a pair of new games the developer is working on for 2010.
For those who don’t know, Park has created an indie RTS game that brings many times the amount of content than that of several retail titles combined. The game has been given a free monthly DLC update since it launched earlier this year, and the dev has no plans to stop that pattern anytime soon. The philosophy Park brings to game development is a fresh one, and one I’d love to see more in his line of work adopt. Read about it and a bunch more in the monster interview after the break.
