Are there any Plans to Release an Rogue Company API so People like me are able to make some Bots with it?

I really love this Game and i like it to make Bots too so an Rogue Company News Bot would be awesome i guess. Keep up the great work! :)

Will there be retroactive cosmetic rewards for mastery levels 2 and 4-10?

Has the issue of server lag and spikes been addressed and examined since the issues arose in the last week (rubber banding has been incredibly bad, especially with Dahlia)?

Will there be an option to exchange reputation points for Rogue bucks?

Are we likely to see ranked before the end of the year?

Has there been any talk of adding a FFA deathmatch similar to Valorant (no abilities, just guns)?

Will skins ever be purchasable with reputation points?

Will rogue mastery eventually feature skins? Is it something you have considered?

Do you know that your game is f*ckin great?

Can Rogue Company get an updated minimap that shows different colours for teammates or rogue icons, so that we can prevent flanks and do proper callouts, like how League of Legends does theirs or Warzone?

Is there plans on adding new rogues? If so, will people who bought the standard founder's pack get it since technically dahlia is supposed to be the last rogue that you can get on the founder's pack. Here's the picture for context https://cdn2.unrealengine.com/roco-standardfounderspack-infographic-1920x1080-bh-1920x1080-560869282.jpg

How are other players going to see our nameplates from the player identity? Or is it only for ourselves to see?

Can you please leave in the ragdoll physics that make the corpses fly around at high speeds? It makes me laugh every time, I love it so much.

My question is about the ping system is there any plans to change the sound on the red ping because it sounds the same as the blue ping and team mates don't realise there is a enemy close to you until it's too late

Originally posted by WaxenDonkey731

The voice chat on Xbox is very finicky, is there any plans to make adjustments to this?

Originally posted by adtri101

What is your take on comp scene and how do you wish to expand it officially? You are doing a wonderful job on the game, skins, mechanics and everything! Can't wait to start making Content. Please continue this, esp. the dev updates and these AMA's. Thank you!

When will we be able to see k.d and more stats like win loss ratio?

Originally posted by _sparQ_

Well since I'm the first here I may as well get the two most highly asked questions on this sub out of the way:

1. Is there any time frame for when ranked will be released?

2. Are you guys aware of/working towards a fix for the people who go AFK or leave mid match?

3. Are new skins coming out soon because you guys are doing a FANTASTIC job on them and I will buy them all to continue to support lol.

You guys are awesome. This game is probably one of my favorite games and I can't wait to see it continue to grow. Hope you all get around to answering my questions, cheers!

Edit: Didn't see the edit for only 1 question so whoops

When will we see more legendary skins or a countdown for the item store?

I would like to see a Legendary for Glitch :)

Can we expect things like Seasonal/Holiday cosmetics (for example Halloween Dima or Christmas Phantom) skin?

Is mouse and keyboard coming back to console?

Will the gun store lady from the cinematic trailer be added as a new rogue possibly in the future? Random question but I’d love to see her because she does know how to work her way around a shotgun.

Originally posted by 02ofclubs

Can you tell how frequent you guys plan to release new rogues?

Originally posted by Vepra1

Hey RoCo team, I've been asking this since the NDA was lifted and I tried every platform multiple times. Twitter (Both Scott and RoCo), Discord, Reddit. I haven't recieved a single answer yet and I am certainly not the only one asking. Why can't switch players recordt short clips using the screenshot button? I mean it certainly would make bugs/hackers reporting a LOT easier for everyone playin on that platform.

Originally posted by why-hello-

Once the current roadmap ends, do you plan to make another one? Or do you plan on just releasing new rogues and maps every so often like other games do?

Originally posted by xeroorxfy

Are there going to be bonus rewards from the founders pack when the game is released out of beta?

Originally posted by GeneralCate

What's the ETA on comms and textchat for pc?

I am enjoying the game immensely but its a very important part of the game for me because i play a lot solo, and it doesnt work properly.

Originally posted by MyKidsTookTheWife

I know this is a small aspect of the game , but any idea when saint will get a more unique skin? All he has is different color sets of a jumpsuit. Would like something more unique like most other rogues have . Thank you

Originally posted by Dmongi

Will Glitch be getting a buff? He is one of those rouges who doesn’t really have a place made for him yet in Competition play! I think his radius should be lager and ability be able to recharge over time!

Originally posted by BlizzardShot

Can you make reviving a little bit easier, at the moment it quiet finicky getting getting it to work. Also when is the champions club map coming out?

Originally posted by hadams95

I posted this question separately before the AMA thread so I apologize for duplicating here:

Are there any plans to make it so that a bomb will blow up while defusing if it hits the existing timer? I've personally never played a game that allows a defuse past the predetermined bomb timer and I think it's better (especially for competitive) that the enemy team is punished even if they do kill all of the planting team.

The same question goes for allowing the bomb to be planted past the round timer if they started the plant before the round timer hits 0.

I've been told that you guys have said its not going to change in that particular thread, but I feel as if this is an anti-pattern in terms of competitive shooters and demolition game modes. So if it's not changed, I'll be playing anyways but honestly just seems like an oversight if it were to stick around once ranked gets released. Nevertheless, I love the game and thank you for the glorious work.

How did you get the worlds cutest community manager?

The game is shaping up really well with Ranked for the competitive players. What do you plan to bring, or add, for the casuals? Will we be seeing more game modes, such as CTF anytime soon? Thanks!

Will we see ranked any time soon 🙏🏽?

Dear Scott,

We have a huge problem on the Switch with RoCo, could you please inform if you are aware of it and when you expect/intend to fix this? Underneath here I describe the problem

So this visual bug occurs randomly or should I say effect bug. It doesn't matter if you restart the game or pick rogue A or B. It pops up out of nowhere for the entirety of the game despite any 'tricks' that you might use. Yes, I restarted the game during a match, after a match but without any result.

These are not only my own experiences, but those of many other Switch users I've played with.

• No smoke visuals/effects when jumping out of the plane (pic 1, no green overlay landing perimeter)
• No gadget effects, unable to see explosions or to see C4/Landmines/Semtex ingame
• Incendiary grenades only show a black spot on the ground(pic 2, I hear the flames burning but this is all I see)
• Unable to see glass
• Unable to see the green landingsite
• Unable to see range indicators, only a little black circle where your gadget is going to be dropped
• Unable to see bullets being fired
• Unable to see the effect Actives. Dallas his outline, Scorch her fire, Vy her poison etc.
• Unable to see smoke, because of that I can see straight through smoke, as you obviously don't see the effects. This might be the only + to this bug
• Anvil his barricade becomes unplaceable
• Not affected by the bug but never working as intend are the spray paints, which are always blurry

edit this significantly destroys our gaming experience from start to finish

Hi team. Firstly want to say I absolutely love the game! Wanted to ask if and when we'd be seeing a public API available to allow 3rd party websites to begin retrieving and displaying in depth player stats and match history.

Also if I may ask, do you miss being at the office? I'm going a bit stir crazy working at home every day.

Thanks again!

When is Dr. disrespect map coming out and is he getting a skin

Originally posted by Bcabalum17

Are there any plans for a better map rotation? Yesterday in 5 games I got Lockdown twice then Vice 3 times. Have you considered implementing a voting system like Halo?

Originally posted by RunisLove

How are you managing balancing the two core modes of Rogue Company (Demolition and Strikeout)? Have you noticed any rogues performing significantly better in one compared to the other?

And in a similar vein, are there any rogue balance changes being evaluated you can share? Dallas seems pretty underwhelming IMO, and Lancer's passive seems too strong (internal cooldown, maybe?).

Thanks for all you guys do. Love the dev update videos, and of course love the game!

Has the lag increased recently due to prepping for the new map or is it just the overall number of ppl joining the game that’s overloading servers?

I’ve been playing with only people on the east coast on NA East servers with crossplay off and have been experiencing delayed hitmarkers and downs. Others in my RoCo group have experienced the same.

One major bug that’s really been messing up gameplay for me and others in my RoCo group is trying to throw a grenade or Semtex when crouched behind cover and instead of throwin the grenade over cover, the character crouches back down before release of the grenade and it just sticks to the edge of the cover most of the time making us down ourselves by accident. Will there be any fix to this soon?

Other than that AMAZINGG GAMEE!!!!

With ranked coming will there be any type of input splitting? coming from Gears of war aim assist tends to be a little strong on PC with controller.

Originally posted by GeneralCate

Alright thank you!
What's the reason for not implementing (or bringing back) text chat?

Originally posted by iSmackTV

Hello Devs, I would like to know how will you handle lore, Cinematics the Dahlia cinematic was pretty cool & I would love to know how vy got poisoned, Talon Affiliation with Rogue Company , Jackal ect.
