[2021] I am Ian Proulx, Co-founder and CEO of 1047 Games and creator of Splitgate. I am joined by Endo and Akuvo, two of our community managers to help with answering your questions!

So far we have 1 new gun in the works! Not ready to share specifics but I will say it definitely has some unique characteristics to Splitgate

I expected it to grow this big but not this fast! In fact, I expect it to grow much bigger in the future, but right now we are in company building mode and focusing on long term goals, more so than just continuing to try to grow Splitgate today.

Long term we want to grow 1047 Games into a large scale gaming studio with multiple games across multiple genres and multiple platforms. Short term, we are focused on building out our team so that we can take Splitgate to the next level. There's a lot more we can do with this kind of budget than ever before, but we need to get the pieces in place first.

No update yet. We want to come to Switch eventually but it is not actively in development at the moment.

The good ones have played well over 2000 hours :) The bad ones are probably in the 100s!

Both of those things are on our todo list! We should be able to get the Impact fixes in the next update. The items not being received is a trickier one but is actively being looked into. Rest assured, you will get your items before the end of the season!

Depends on the mode. I would say Pantheon is my favorite for TDM because I love the battle for shotgun. Abyss is probably my favorite KOTH map, and Silo is probably my favorite DOM map

I think the shotgun is the best gun, the Sniper is the most satisfying gun, and Carbine is the gun I'm most proud of. Getting the Carbine to feel good was a surprisingly difficult task despite being a simple weapon. Favorite mode is definitely King of the Hill

Both are great games but I would have to pick Unreal over Quake! Though I will say Halo 2 is my favorite arena shooter besides Splitgate.

1. Custom games! A lot of people don't realize how fun custom games with friends can be. There are a ton of crazy modifiers that open up a whole new kind of way to play. We will be streaming some wacky gamemodes in custom games tomorrow to show this off!
2. LORE It's something we didn't have the budget or bandwidth to do before but are starting to discuss this a lot more :)
3. Yes, just check in 7 days in a row!

Actually we are redoing a lot of the matchmaking and backend infrastructure at the moment. It will likely be live in early December and should lead to substantially better games (and also be able to handle much larger player numbers).

That money is being reinvested to hire people and build the business! Although I appreciate your creativity lol

1. Server tick rate is currently 60hz. The oddities likely stem from players with bad internet or players in regions far from the servers, not the servers themselves. Some of our upcoming matchmaking improvements should allow us to be more strict with which servers people can play on.
2. The reason we aren't more open about our roadmap is because things are constantly changing in real time and we don't want to promise something and then change our plans. That said, we absolutely value our community's opinion on things and are always looking for feedback and feature requests!
3. That's a great idea. We actually today on twitter asked our community which modes they wanted to see on the 24/7 featured playlist. Great minds think alike!

Partnered streamers do, yes! Check out our discord for more info!

No plans at the moment but we are always open to adding more highly requested ranked modes in the future as the game grows.

w to be a nerd:

Thanks for the kind words! Haha I think VR Splitgate would make most people throw up! I do have a VR idea for a game in the future though but that is many years away and unrelated to Splitgate

I had leftover Indian food. Great question.

My order from best to worst: Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 1, Halo Reach, Halo 5, Halo 4
