It’s a lovely, but cold, Wednesday in Stockholm. The fall is well on it’s way. We are settling in in the new office and the wild boar is finally up on the wall. So it almost feel like home now.

Winners
We’ve selected the winners in last weeks trophy shot competition. A big thanks to all of you who participated.  It seems as you liked the new feature.

We decided that all top three entries will receive the Laura Avatar. So the winners are (drum roll!!!):

Third place, who gets Laura Avatar + 500 em$, une

Second place, who gets Laura Avatar + 1000 em$: BambiGoHome

First place, who gets Laura Avatar + 1500 em$: Decoy13

The work on the new species is coming along as planned. We’re just mentioning it so you know what we’re working on, we still have a long way to go before it can be released.

We’re working on improving the GUI system (Graphic User Interface) right now. This will fix a bunch of GUI bugs and allow us to make other improvements and make it easier to add new features.

A new piece of hardware will be released very soon.

Happy Hunting!

Hello Hunters,

It’ll be a short update today since we’re terribly busy right now. We’re moving to a new office tomorrow. We’ll move back to the same building as Avalanche are sitting in to be closer to the creators of the game engine.

Tomorrow Pim, Björn and Andres will visit a world acclaimed sight manufacturer to try their products out and see how we could possibly implement them in the game. We’ll tell you more about this at a later date.

We’re still working on the new species, it’s coming along nicely, but we have many many weeks/months ahead of us of before things will start to come together.

We’ve killed a bunch of bugs and you can red about it in the latest game update. We’ll continue to kill bugs so hopefully some more will disappear next week.

Happy hunting

Do we have news for you? We sure do!

The all brand new first person animations are finally done. It’s taken Hampus and José several months to complete all the animations required. And if we might say so ourselves, they look mighty fine. We are aware of the fact that some bugs might still be in there, but we’ll monitor this as closely as we possibly can, so we can kill them swiftly. For those of you who’d gotten used to not seeing your weapon, we’d like to remind you of the H-key (default key). It hides whatever you are holding. So we hope you are as excited and happy about the animations finally being in place as we are.

The new first person animations have sorted the ground blind problems out, so you should not have any problems seeing out of the blind any more. We’ve also improved prone so you won’t get “motion sickness” and you can now go prone in slopes again.

To celebrate the new animations we also released a brand new weapon today. It’s a single-shot handgun that we call “Rival”. It’s got the mobility of a handgun with the power of a hunting rifle and fits in the small weapon holster. The Rival is accompanied by a 2-4x20mm Handgun Scope.

We’ve also re-vamped the maps. This is hopefully something you won’t notice, unless you find them loading faster, but if you find any bugs please report them in the bug section of the forum. The new system will also make it easier for us to add more functionality to maps later on.

We’ve fixed a few bugs as well and you can read about them in the latest game update

Happy Hunting!
