Hello Space Marines!
March has been a busy month for us, with hotfixes, working on patch 13 and more. Alongside these changes, we also want to address recent feedback and share important news about the Chapter Voice Pack.
Let’s dive in!
Hotfixes 12.1, 12.2 are live, 12.3 is on the way 🔧
The hotfixes 12.1 and 12.2 were released earlier this month, bringing stability improvements, corrected issues with some of the Techmarine’s perks, and buffed the Sniper and Vanguard classes, among others.
A 12.3 hotfix, which will bring further stability improvements, is also on its way. We’ll let you know as soon as it’s live.
Regarding future updates
We are currently working on Patch 13.
The main focus of this patch will be on Siege mode. We are going to add more features to it:
More purchasable items to allow new strategies
Difficulty curve will be reworked, sessions will be shorter and more intense
Playing Siege mode will also grant accolades
More details will be revealed as we’ll be closer to the Patch 13 release.
It will also bring a new PvE mission, more customisation options for the Techmarine, 3 new Heroic weapons variant, a new weapon and equipment, more customisation options items (and a new customisation feature 😉), and of course, the Iron Hands Chapter Pack.
Also, we’re working on an update of the roadmap, as the current one is no longer faithful to reality. We’ll release it in April, so stay tuned!
About the Chapter Voice Pack 🗨️
Note from our Game Director:
We heard your feedback regarding the Chapter Voice Pack DLC and wanted to address it. It's obvious this DLC has failed to meet your expectations and we are sorry about that. Delivering quality content - free or not - is a priority for us.
Let me explain a little more about this DLC, and why we decided to make it free from now on:
The voice pack was originally designed to include what we call “battle chatter”: lines that react to combat situations and are not tied to specific missions. Each character in the voice pack got 450+ lines per 7 languages. However, it does not cover the large amount of scripted, level-specific dialogue found in Operations, which represent roughly 1500 lines for each operation.
We understand that many of you expected your chosen Chapter’s voice to be more complete. That’s on us, we didn’t set the right expectations, and the result feels incomplete. Many production constraints, such as localization, voice actors availability and necessity to keep updating voice packs when adding new Operations, forced us to make the voice pack as it stands currently, and the same constraints are not allowing us to "expand" the voice pack by adding the missing lines.
Looking ahead, we’ll be making improvements to the current implementation. We are currently working on an option to disable replacement of missing level specific VOs by Ultramarine characters, and we'll also expand the voice pack to PvP.
We still believe that expanding customization, whether it’s how your Space Marine looks or sounds, is important for the game's fantasy.
This is why we've decided to offer a refund to all owners of the DLC, and to make it free from now on. We are currently setting up the refund with platform owners. Refunds will start from early April.
Thank you for your feedback and for your continued support.
Dmitriy Grigorenko, Game Director
