Streaming Performance Improvements

We've made significant improvements to level streaming performance, reducing lag spikes in most areas. However, you may still encounter brief stutters near the jungle watchtower, where a large city section is streamed in at once. We're actively working on further optimizations for this area and expect additional improvements in the coming weeks.

Beyond Enemy Lines – Vietnam: Technical Playtest Begins Now!

We're kicking off our technical playtest today, May 23 – a bit differently than planned.

Due to a pending approval for the dedicated Playtest App, we've decided to launch the Steam Demo version early instead. This version will be updated continuously based on your feedback and will remain available for about one month, including during Steam Next Fest.

What's in the demo?
You'll experience a slice of a campaign mission with multiple replayable routes. Each run takes between 30 and 60 minutes. Weapons can be ranked up, and attachments unlocked.

What we're looking for:
  • How well does it run on your system?
  • Did you encounter any critical bugs or crashes?
  • Are there design elements you’d like to see improved?




⚠️ This is a work-in-progress. Expect bugs, placeholder content, and unfinished systems. Your input will directly shape how the game evolves.



🐛 Known & Expected Bugs
As this is an early work-in-progress build, some issues are known and currently being addressed:

  • Unresponsive AI Behavior
    Enemy AI may occasionally fail to react properly. This is often caused by missing information nodes or the inability to find valid cover. We're actively adjusting these systems to strike the right balance between performance and intelligent behavior.

  • Weapon Rank Display Bug
    In some cases, the in-game weapon rank may appear to reset or decrease after restarting a mission. This is purely a visual issue — your actual progress and weapon stats remain unaffected.

  • Audio Mixing Incomplete
    The overall sound mix is still under development. Expect placeholder audio, inconsistent volume levels, and general imbalance. This is a key area we’ll be improving over the coming weeks.

  • Gameplay Lag Spikes
    You may experience minor stutters or lag spikes, particularly when loading new sections of the level. We’re aware of this and working on smoother level streaming and performance optimizations.


Please continue to share your experiences — your feedback is critical as we refine the game.

This test is focused on technical feedback:
  • How well does it run?
  • Any critical bugs?
  • Are there core design issues you want changed?
