Steam Scream Fest Announcement + The Road Ahead

Hello, fellow mutants,

First and foremost, we want to extend a big THANK YOU to everyone that is playing RIPOUT!

We have been following and noting all your comments, suggestions and bug reports in every possible place since the game launched into Early Access on Tuesday - thank you all so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with our team! Below is a list of the most important bits of feedback that we have collected since launch and will be working on in the following days in order to fix/update and include in hotfix patches that we will release in the following weeks:

  • Fixing the crashes and performance issues caused by the Nvidia DLSS Frame Generation. We are working with their team to find the best solution so those issues can be resolved.
  • Localization issues where text on specific widgets is not aligned with the language selected
  • Weapon gun feel improvements
  • Performance issues that have been reported with stuttering in specific levels
  • Known issues with farming damage stats on assets that are not destructible or enemy types
  • Known issues with some stats that are not correctly shown
  • Known issues with Enemy sound
  • Small issues with Enemy behaviour
  • Known UI/UX improvements
  • Many additional hotfixes


We will be providing more detailed Patch Notes for each Hotfix Patch that goes up so you can all know what is fixed and improved in the current build.

We also want to take a moment to encourage the members of the community to join the [official RIPOUT Discord]. Inside, you will find a more direct method of communication with the developers, announcements for potential events and content updates, and maybe even a few new friends for raiding ships in co-op.

Once again, we would like to take this opportunity to thank the RIPOUT community for playing the game, creating content and sharing your thoughts about our game.

An additional note: RIPOUT is proud to be participating in the Steam Screamfest! So if you haven't picked up RIPOUT, considering doing so while the game is discounted 10%.

Pre-Release Community Update

[h2]Attention fellow mutants:[/h2]

Just so you’re all aware, RIPOUT enters Early Access on October 24th at 1pm EST / 7pm CEST. The early access price will be $24.99 / £20.99 / €24.99 with a 10% launch discount for the first week.

To celebrate, we’re going to be dedicating the entirety of today’s 3D Realms Live! livestream to playing RIPOUT, which you can watch here at 2pm EST/8pm CEST.

[h2]Release Platforms[/h2]

Our intention is to eventually make it to the Epic Game Store and of course GOG (as well as consoles, etc). But for the moment–and to focus on the improvements and content additions outlined in our early access announcement–we have made the decision to stick with Steam, exclusively for the initial launch.

Details about any additional stores will be announced when they are ready.

[h2]EA Roadmap[/h2]
RIPOUT will be getting several content updates throughout the early access period. In order to give you a more clear idea of what we plan to add to the game, we have created an Early Access Roadmap that you can see below. This roadmap lists the majority of the important features that each content update will include based on our initial estimations, but can be subject to change.

There will be two types of updates--smaller updates focused on balancing and bug fixing that will be released on a more frequent bases--and bigger updates that will include new features, enemies, weapons, etc. We plan to release the bigger updates approximately every two months, but right now, it is obvious that we can't make any promises about the exact timing.



If there is anything you would like to know before RIPOUT enters early access next week, feel free to post it in the comments below.

We can’t wait to see you in-game on October 24th at 1pm EST/7pm CEST.
