INTEL UPDATE #001: Launch Recap

News Update

Our Early Access launch certainly had its share of suspense and drama, but we are happy to announce that it’s been a pretty good success so far! We’re really enjoying watching and listening to people have a lot of fun with GROUND BRANCH, and can’t wait to see more players jump in as we move forward.

It’s awesome that most of the new players understand and appreciate where the game is headed towards, despite all the rough edges that are to be expected from its current pre-alpha stage. Reaching and maintaining a positive rating for an Early Access title is not easy, and we consider it a big achievement.
So we wanted to take this time to outline a couple things you can expect as we transition from launch to continued production:

  • A quick hot-fix release this weekend will address some of the main issues with the Ready Room, customization menu and visual glitches some players are experiencing. We have gained a lot of feedback that could only happen with a larger scale release into Early Access, so thanks for all the reports!
  • Moving forward past this initial launch week, we would like to get into a bi-weekly update schedule with at least one major new feature or upgrade a month. Of course, there may be times when we are able to deliver more in shorter periods, too!
From the entire BlackFoot Studios team: Thank you so much for your continued support. Stick around, ’cause it’s gonna be a fun ride!
