Beta started in 2023 and we never updated this. /facepalm

Super cool stats! My theory/interpretation of these winrates that they are currently skewed towards players who are experiencing the game for the first time.

For early-game, Brute/Gaunt pushes are extremely powerful if you don't know the exact reactions, but I see them as less of an issue at higher levels. (Note that this doesn't mean that new Vanguard players dying so early on isn't a big issue.)

As for late-game, I've been hearing that both factions have extremely powerful tools, but the Vanguard ones are generally a bit easier to use (Deployed units + Vulcans vs Weavers/Imps/Hellbornes)

I'd be curious to see what the stats say for players above certain MMRs/RPs!

f**k blizzard, stormgate opted in hard enough to get in for their 1 week beta launch even. That’s early.

We appreciate the support <3

In addition to playing the Stormgate beta during Steam Next Fest, you should consider playing StarCraft II. Many of our team members worked on it and it's been able to withstand the test of time.

Stormgate will be playable using GeForce Now!

We will be on GeForce Now, too.

You will be able to play 3p co-op and 3v3 without purchasing any Heroes—everyone will be able to use a Hero.

Updating this response with the correct steps:

As an alpha/beta tester, you may share your Kickstarter beta access, but the correct process is to go through the onboarding email with the email that you used for Kickstarter. Once you connect to your Steam account, it will sync up with your old alpha/beta account and you will receive an additional invite link that you can share through the closed beta dashboard.

Hopefully that helps. Don't just forward the Kickstarter beta email, as you will also be giving away your Founder Discord role and other potential rewards that are part of your pledge.

Is it worth ‘messaging creator’ on the kickstarter pledge or just wait for a future communication?

It can’t hurt!

Great philosophy! Looking forward to what kind of community we can build together. Keep up the good work and I want to say I am really enjoying the game so far. Beta feels awesome!

Props to frostgiant for sending out keys to people who can't pay or didn't update payment information. No guarantees frostgiant gets their money but they still give them a key.

We are going to assume good intent and that people with payment processing issues are working to get them resolved in time. Our Founders are our most dedicated supporters and we don't want to keep them from getting the playtest access they pledged to support us for just because of a technical issue.

Thanks so much for your support! <3

Hi, folks, we are aware of this issue and are working on it.
We can see those of you who backed using an Apple ID (more than 500) and we will be in touch with next steps soon.

We'll have to wait and see, but im strongly convinced, theyll gonna lift it at least after snf.

With 30k backers its gonna take so much time and money to keep up on it, following the hints, identifying the accounts and everything.

Theyre only some months away from release and im pretty sure they have more important stuff going on.

Not gonna stream anyway, if you think thats why i said it :)

We've had thousands of playtesters in our previous beta phases and the NDA has held up and been respected. This community has done a great job of maintaining confidentiality and not spreading any leaks and we are grateful.

It doesn't make much sense to risk a lifetime ban from a game you're excited about just to stream for a few minutes on Twitch.

Our team is working non-stop to get everything ready so that we can deliver keys to our Founders. We are excited to get these invitations out tomorrow and to give our wave 1 beta Founders Friday through Sunday to get in early before Steam Next Fest.

Wave 1 access also means you're able to continue playing after Steam Next Fest ends and continue beta testing into March (we are estimating the second week of March, date not final).

You'll also be in all future testing phases, which includes first hands-on with our upcoming third faction.

We're a small team and this is a big project (it's safe to say our final turnout far exceeded our initial expectations!), so please bear with us as we are doing our best. While we'd love to snap our fingers and just let everyone in now, we have necessary steps to take first to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible.

Thank you so much for your support.

The Frost Giant team would like to thank the Stormgate World guys for all the hard work they put into this awesome resource for our community!

As a former PC gamer who now only has a MacBook - is there any way to get it working on MacBook (Don't really care about performance or anything).

Would be cool to just be able to toy around even if I fully understand that macOS compatibility isn't prioritised at this point.

EDIT: I know there's no official support but I have never tried gaming on macbook before. Is there a way to run it in some sort of emulator or something is what I'm asking for.

We are looking at GeForce Now support, which should be a good option for many Mac users.

A 7x7x7 clear acrylic display cube would fit the statue. It's pretty fragile, so keeping it safe from being sat on is a good idea.

Maybe slap it onto a ...
