Hello, everyone!

We’re about to cross an important milestone for Stormgate–our very first ladder reset! Ladder Season 0, which began before Early Access, will be ending sometime next week. We will then be resetting the leaderboards and kicking off Season 0.2.

To commemorate this special moment, we’re planning to capture a snapshot of the top players from each faction at the moment the season ends, to celebrate their achievement of being one of the top players in the world at the beginning of Stormgate’s Early Access journey. We are also planning to celebrate those of you who help usher in the season rollover by listing the players who secure the most wins (one player per faction) between now and the start of Season 0.2.

If you’re interested in earning some bragging rights and becoming a Season Zero hero, all you have to do is win the mos... Read more

We have reported the recent review botting to Steam directly.

Cheat codes are something we plan on doing eventually, but they are not on the top of our list currently as we work toward the full launch of the game.

Hi, I’m on the FG team. We recently brought on a new art director and he’s working on updating the look of our factions. You can see some of what we’ve been cooking here:

To clarify a possible error in my title, Gerald didn't specify when he reported it to Steam. It could have been after the first wave. But the screenshot from the official discord came during discussion of the second wave tonight.

I’ll clarify—I’ve filed two reports to Steam’s dev support system. Once after each wave, shortly after discovering it (thank you to the community members who have been reaching out to me to report this activity.)

I’m new to using Reddit, so I don’t really understand what you mean by a "puppet account."

Does my post come across as insincere and sarcastic? If that’s how it seems, I apologize—it wasn’t my intention.

I’m a Korean player who bought Stormgate during its Steam Early Access period, and I even organized a small tournament in Korea using my own money.

I’m not wealthy, so I can’t make a big contribution, but I believe that, as a user, I’m entitled to share my thoughts like this.

I heard from the Korean community that the developers were affected by the wildfires, so I posted this out of genuine concern. I hope there’s no misunderstanding.

By the way, since my English isn’t very good, I used translation tools to write my earlier post. I’m sorry if it came across as awkward.

I appreciate you reaching out and love that you organized a local tournament. Please DM me on the Stormgate Discord as I'd like to share something to thank you for your support.

Not cool.

It looks like we're being targeted by someone who is sending some pretty obvious bots (poor English, copy/paste reviews) to spam our store page. My team is all asleep at this time, but I've reported what's going on and I expect they'll look into it in the a.m.

Thanks for checking in. Some have been without power at home and at least one team member was forced to evacuate. We're keeping our fingers crossed for everyone who's been affected.

This specific instance aside, it would be appreciated if you had a chance to talk to the mods about this sort of stuff anyway. It does feel like the moderation there can be a little heavy-handed lately.

Especially because sometimes, people have no choice but to repeat certain critiques if they want to discuss it, due to Discord’s nature of fast-moving chats

I’ll talk to them.

Respect comes both ways. If you value respect as you write of it. The dog pillers should be banned at least. But they are treated like heroes. Defenders of the indefensible. If you dogpille every gamer that brings the fake review, they will mock you back. The problem? Was the fake reviews, not the users that brought them. The problem? Was the dogpillers, not the ones that moke them. You can't uphold "respect" like a golden sword for your friends, but then let them dogpille on those that call on your mistakes. It's silly, it's lame, its alienating. If you ask for respect then ask your own community. Because they are chill being disrespectful, all in front of your mods and in front of you. Respect geralt. Goes both ways

Our supporters are just as responsible for being respectful as our critics. It should always go both ways.

Dude, if Gerald's position is that it's the big bosses who should apologize, then why the hell is Gerald even getting into the chat room, bringing up a terrible and stupid situation, and throwing out dire warnings about "respect"? 6-)

Being respectful is important and dropping into the Discord just to mock our people is not OK.

I attempted to provide some feedback in the discord that maybe a FG rep should hold the company to a higher standard than blizzard, and that calling it a goof isn't very helpful (I thought a fair and constructive thing to say) and I had fun getting dogpiled by Spartak and his goons for 10 minutes. It's weird in there now.

I actually agree with this take, I didn’t see your comment on Discord or I’d have mentioned to the mods that you weren’t out of line. I believe we should hold ourselves to a higher standard. We are.

Hey, Reddit. This has been a tough couple of days. We don't have an official statement from our CEO out there because he was evacuated due to the recent fires affecting Southern California. A few notes:

  • We have close to 50 employees working on Stormgate these days. There was no call for the team to review the game from our leadership.
  • A few team members messed up and left reviews, and yes, that includes our CEO. He's human, is passionate about our game, and yes, he should have known better. We should have had a firm policy and education on this, which we're instituting.
  • We are making it 100% clear that any communications related to our game coming from our staff needs to include a clear disclaimer of their connection to the game.
  • Once Tim is back online, we'll make sure a disclaimer is added to his review or have him remove it. I don't know when that will be, unfortunately. He's dealing with other priorities at the moment.
  • I ...

FYI, Geoff supports some indie studios without AAA budgets with a number of no-cost "editorial slots" at his showcase events like Summer Game Fest. We're super grateful for his support.
