Hello everyone!

We are listening to your feedback and are committed to improving Warsaw both in short and long term. We aim to provide you a content roadmap in the very near future.

A patch will be deployed shortly, which addresses a number of issues you have asked about since launch.

DELETING SAVE FILES

Deleting saves from the game now works correctly.

DIFFICULTY ADJUSTMENT

While we want the game to remain difficult it seems clear from the feedback that it was over-tuned. We have reduced the overall difficulty across the board.

- Health of Enemies reduced by 10%. This will also speed up the combat
- Reduced the maximum number of Enemies in battles from 7 to 6
- Ammunition cost of all Skills reduced by 20%
- Decreased the rate of AP consumption when moving around the city by 25%.
- Reduced the rate of Momentum decay by 10%
- Increased the starting amount of Short Ammunition by 10%
- Increased the starting amount of Long Ammunition by 25%
- Increased the starting amount of Heavy Ammunition by 50%
- Slightly increased ammunition gain from looting

RNG ADJUSTMENT

Right now the game increases your hit odds by 10% when you miss. We have increased this to 30%. This should reduce the amount of frustrating missing streaks in combat.

BUG FIXES

- Fixed a rare bug where battles failed to load
- Fixed tooltips in the battle screen being clipped by the screen edge
- Fixed a bug that allowed to infinity sell weapons equipped by a character
- Fixed vanishing ammunition when the game was closed during the loading screen
- Fixed Mortar visuals when hit
- Added a new cursor
- Achievement fixes
- Audio fixes
- Visual fixes

To close the circle of trailers starting with WARSAW's announcement back in February and ending with the launch trailer seven months later we'd like you to check out WARSAW's newest video. Full two days before the game is available on Steam this coming Wednesday.

We will be adding the trailer to the official Steam page tomorrow, but for now you can check it out exclusively @ GameSpot.

https://www.gamespot.com/videos/warsaw-exclusive-gameplay-launch-trailer/2300-6451144/

The work on the trailer with the very talented and very patient Radikal Studio lasted a little over two months and resulted in a mere 41-email chain that lead to less than 10 versions of the video.

You could say this was a breeze.

Enjoy!

Literally hundreds of emails labeled WARSAW REVIEW CODES went out yesterday to the gaming media, streamers and youtubers around the world. So that on Wednesday of October 2nd, from 1pm GMT / 6am PDT you could check out the reviews, streams and videos to see what the industry’s professionals make of it.

What we made of it is over two years and tens of thousands working hours put into development, localization, QA, and communication. It felt fantastic to share the game’s screenshots, trailers and details and see how they resonate with you. And your support, enthusiasm and inputs in all the comments and forums sections every time a new story on WARSAW surfaced were extremely humbling and rewarding.

Next week from the day of the launch onwards we set out on a new journey with two clear goals. To listen to you and incorporate your input into the game and work on the content that will allow you to enjoy the game way, way post launch on PC. With other platforms to follow.

WARSAW’s steam keys will be active from 3pm GMT / 8am PDT on October 2nd. The game will be available for 23.99 USD or equivalent in local currency. With one exception: the game`s home country. Thanks to retail and publishing partners in Poland, the price for the version in the local distribution, supporting only Polish language will be approx. 50% lower. We wanted to make sure it will allow more people in Poland to experience the events that had profound impact on their capital city, and their country. To paraphrase IGN’s Joe Skrebel’s quote from his WARSAW story: This feels right to us.
