Europe In Ruins : Reinforcements Dev Blog #1
Hi there! It's Olazaika speaking to you today, one of the devs for CoH : Europe In Ruins!
Steam has been really quiet for a while, and for that - I apologize. While balancing and gameplay improvements remain our key foci as a group - I've been working on something a bit more... enticing.
That's right! The Eastern Front is opening. Not yet, but steady progress has been made! I've been focused on getting the base units just right before adding in any of the doctrines. You've had a chance at testing them a few weeks prior, and I've realized a lot of you have very different expectations for the new faction. Hopefully I'll be able to meet most of them :)
Anyways, These past few weeks have been spent ironing out model issues. And now I'm going full speed on making the doctrines!
All base units have been implemented and balanced. They're not great, but they're not supposed to be - no doctrine buffs yet, remember?
As for the future :
I'm hoping to do more in-depth dev-blogs bi-weekly, to try and keep you guys in the loop!
We've drawn up 2 doctrines already, another one is in the works. One out of three is half-way done coding-wise. I'm aiming for a mid-august test of all the doctrines.
Once that is done and finalized - our resident launcher artist Speedy will go in and make the experience for you look all pretty.
Hope to see you soon on the battlefield ;) And hopefully with t34's in your hands.
