Enemy on Board Dev Tracker

Kicking off the new year, I want to share our first Community Letter of 2021: https://www.notion.so/Community-Letter-1-19-21-29220ac3c7714c83bcd5d520c92ed167

tldr;

• Crazy year for EOB in 2020, reached almost half a million people, Early Access launch, 7 major updates
  
• EOB has a small playerbase and doesn't feed us devs, but we're still going to keep servers running for our community
  
• Our goal is to launch EOB near Steam's Autumn Festival later this year
  In the meantime, we will be starting prototype work on a second project, codenamed Project Borealis
  
• We have limited details to share for Project B, but what we can tell you ~ we're going to apply everything we've learned into this project, and it's going to be online multiplayer co-op
  ...

The players in our community never fails to surprise me. One of the best guides to learn how to play EOB here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2320975773

To celebrate our massive update, the devs are hosting our first ever PC Giveaway! This is no doubt the biggest reward we've ever given away.

If you already have the game installed, you get FREE extra entries right off the bat.

Join the giveaway here: https://gleam.io/2Fpws/enemy-on-board-pc-giveaway ~ I challenge you to complete all the tasks. If you do, send me a screenshot ;)

Or don't. Y'all can also just let me keep this PC for myself <3 smile

Still not working? Did you add any new hardware to your computer in the past day or two?

In anticipation of our major update on Friday, we pushed out an infrastructure update. Some players will experience unstable conditions.

We have a change to our movement system coming in hot! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmcRRyavZzk&ab_channel=EnemyOnBoard

Hey Thunderer! Sorry for the issues. I will be sharing this with the team this week. Is there any chance you could check if you have any log files?


Here's how to grab your logs:
1. In your Steam Library, right click on Enemy On Board
2. Click Properties
3. Go to the Local Files tab
4. Click Browse Local Files...
5. Open the logs folder
6. Sort by Date Modified to find your most recent file :)

You can send me the file directly if you join our Discord (https://discord.gg/enemyonboard).

We just put out another update. Trying updating and booting it up ~ fingers crossed.

If it still doesn't work, would you mind joining the Discord[discord.gg], and DMing me to help you sort out this problem?

Let's get you into the game :)

We very much want to help! Give us some time to figure out how to build up our playerbase in the OCE/AUS region. We'll make it there one day, I promise!

Originally posted by Ulfstian: The Store page only shows specs for PC, so I didn't now it worked on the Mac. Now I know - might be a good idea to add Mac specs!

We actually removed our Mac specs because, as you probably have figured out by now, your microphone does not work.

This is due to an issue with MacOS Catalina's microphone permissions.

We are still in the works of figuring out how to fix this. Once we have solved this problem, we will be bringing back the Mac specs to the Steam page :)

Hey bonebrah, you need 6 to start a game at the moment. But yes, you are able to create your own private party with your friends.

In the future, we know we want to add a custom game mode into the game, where you are not limited to the 6 player requirement.

Hi! We just put out a new patch :) can you try updating and booting up the game?

If not, I can guide through how to fix it manually.

Originally posted by Central Neural Network: Its a buggy mess

Sadly, it's the risk of putting out new content. We need the help of our community to find the bugs, and we'll do everything we can to get them fixed asap.

We have a hotfix going out in an hour to fix all the FPS and map-falling issues.

The Day You've All Been Waiting For
tldr; lots of stuff going on today, please read <3

▬▬▬▬▬▬ NEW UPDATE ▬▬▬▬▬▬

You kept asking us when the Cadet and Sarrel were going to get added back into the game, and.... today is the day!

The upgraded Niko The Officer and Sarrel The Grifter have received their abilities, their perks, and have found themselves on board the Andromeda.

Not to mention we have also added two new items, some new general perks, and a few fixes to existing perks. The patch notes be seen here: https://store.steampowered.com/newshub/app/99... Read more

Originally posted by Qwerty Bob: Is this why the game currently only list it's available to Windows on the storefront? (honest question spawned from confusion)

Yes, we had to update it recently due to the new MacOS Catalina incompatibility issue with new microphones.

This is something to try if you want to see if it works: ... Read more

Have you tried changing your controls in the settings? I personally have my Move Key binded to W, and my Use key binded to left click

As some of you know and have helped us to gain more info, the MacOS Microphone Issue is not yet completely fixed. With the issue being bigger than we thought, we are back to our dev caves to fix this problem. Please stand by <3

We've read a ton of feedback from you all since the Early Access launch, and we've put together a list of some of the most important things we want to tackle!

The devs will continually update this list of projects to let you know what we have finished and what we are planning to get done in the next few weeks.

We hope that as we push these new, exciting features and contents out, you all can help us test them to make sure they are the best they can be!
