Status Update February 2018!

[mwrightMGT]

Hey Everyone,

I was holding off posting an update this month in the hopes we could have a new BETA release ready, but looks like we are delayed a bit as we clean up a few things on the AI front.

We are hoping to get a new BETA update out first week of March with updates to the AI, the new heat system for the weapons, and a better decal system for Mech customization. The only thing holding up a new beta release is cleaning up some issues with our new AI pathing system.

On the art side we are working on putting together new decal packs for customization as well as some new mech chassis design. We will be releasing the new mech chassis over time starting with two new skins for the Switchblade. Our plan over the next few months is to get out 2 new skins for each chassis type.

Once we have our new AI pathing stuff polished up, we will be working on getting the AI a bit smarter and more varied, work on balancing them, and introduce two new "drone" mechs as enemy combatants (AI only).

We will also be looking to update the Urban map to make it a bit more playable and adding a new desert canyon map for play testing.

As always, thank you for your continued support and patience!

By the time you finish your game it's going to be incompatible with Windows 18.

Hey guys, hope all is well. Its been about 5 months since this update. How's it going? Hard to believe its almost been 4 years since you released into EA. To be perfectly honest, I was hoping the game would be further along by this point, but i know this isnt your full time gig and the game is still fun and playable. Really its a minor complaint and i still have nothing but faith in the team. I hope we hear more about the long awaited updates and the beta or whatnot soon. Love ya <3

There are other posts updating from the team. Not sure everyone has access to the beta forums and other areas though. Nothing terribly exciting. But the port from the old engine to the new engine is going slower than hoped.

So, where is this major update? It's now Nov 2018. Never buying another EA game again thanks to games like this failing to deliver.
