Howdy Folks!

SURPRISE. We have an out-of-typical-schedule Alpha for you this week. I got impatient and wanted to get some stuff into your folk’s hands as fast as possible to test, as I’ve just been having a blast with them. Make sure to watch this week’s Devlog, as I go through how the new Hover Benchrest works. I look forward to seeing what sorts of ridiculous shot you folks end up being to land with it.

Also, as a reminder any bugs should always be posted in the Bug Reports section of the Steam Forum here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/450540/discussions/1/ I keep having folks email me, post to the subreddit, or use our contact form, etc. etc., and it just makes it harder to keep track of everything, so if you could pleeeease keep them to that forum I would be deeply appreciative.

Hope y'all have a great weekend!

Peace,
Anton

If you didn’t watch last week’s devlog, and you’re following along on the Alpha Branch, I HIGHLY recommend you watch it here as well:

Howdy Folks!

Got an extra-sized Devlog for you folks this week. Plenty to cover. How BOUT them classic prototype shotguns eh? It sure does seem like there was a period where everyone assumed what militaries REALLY needed was absurdly sized high capacity shotguns. I know I used to think they were the coolest thing ever after playing Fallout 2 as a kid (rocked across the wasteland with my CAWS). It seems though that common sense prevailed from multiple vectors, and such ridiculous devices are left to history (and VR hot dog gun sims), so it is a joy to be able to play with a bunch of shotguns-that-never-were.

As for Meat Fortress stuff, we are slowly making our way through all of the class’s kit, giving them alt weapons, new ammo and a grenade each. Once we’ve gotten through them all later this year, we’ve got some fun stuff planned that I think you folks will enjoy, including a specially designed Take & Hold character progression.

Lastly, I know there’s going to be a ton of questions regarding the Gameplanner system I talked about in the Devlog. I’ll be here for a few hours tonight on the subreddit to answer em. Do note though that a whoooole lot of that system is going to be a ‘design as we go’ sort of affair, where based on how various tools and nodes and objects are to use, we’ll follow what’s working. Still tons up in the air, but as always we plan to be super open about our design process with it, as well as listening for what seems the most exciting to you folks.

Hope you all have a pleasant Weekend!

Peace,
Anton
