Dream start for RoN EA release.

For 15 years I thought "If someone would just make a proper SWAT4 successor, it would sell like hot cakes". And it did. Still hangs in the #1 spot of "Top Sellers" too.

That's also pretty damn good, for a hardcore niche PvE tactical shooter. Compare to Battlefield 2042 (complete opposite end of FPS spectrum) it's not far off. Might overtake it, after some time

But honestly, in the back of my mind I'm slightly worried about Team 17 not publishing anymore. They said Team 17 QA was "brutal" and it (in part) caused this to be as polished as it is. But problem with most of today's gaming industry is that QA is not brutal. Not even in famous game franchises (Battlefield 2042, cough cough). It should be brutal, because Steam reviews (and word of mouth) will be...

I hope VOID can keep up the quality level that Team 17 required, on their own. Even without Team 17 not breathing on their backs (and providing financial resources). They have a solid base to build on. Can't wait to see future developments.

Same, but I‘m kinda worried about the amount of content. I was super hyped for this game, but after around 20 hours im feeling some fatigue

I‘ve played every single map like 5 times already. There isn’t a lot to do besides clear maps again and again. Player count will drop off drastically probably by the end of the month.

The devs really need to keep at it with new content. A progression system is quite simple to implement, but will add reasons to actually play

Were all slowing down for Christmas and having a much-needed break after slugging it out for so long.

Content (maps, weapons, VO, characters) is already in the works however and hopefully the next big update is gonna help maintain excitement (I hope!).

No word on when they will be though. Definitely not too long.

We appreciate the continued communication

All in a days work. This is my baby so seeing so much support (and concern!) is really good, and we all wanna engage with it.

Absolutely, I love how responsive they've been on here

/u/Gruntr in addition to the game itself of course, your replies on here are much appreciated and for myself and I'm sure many others help keep the hype going strong for what changes, fixes, and new features/content await in the new year. Best wishes for a great relaxing holiday, it's well deserved and I'm sure well needed particularly after that barrage of updates y'all cranked out in the last few weeks!

Thanks for noticing! Nothing like talking to ya'll about stuff. Can't wait to get more content out there!
