Apologies for the late update. 2023 was an exciting year for us entering Early Access, but it was also a massive learning year for us as well. As we entered the new year we’ve been hard at work with a lot of new processes and updates.
Roadmap update:
BattleBit Remastered has chosen to stray away from using a roadmap at this time. This decision allows the development team the flexibility to address emerging priorities, respond to player feedback promptly, and make dynamic adjustments without being constrained by a predetermined timeline. We are working on a way to create a more balanced expectation and better transparency between the community and Developers.
Internal Restructure:
To ensure that BattleBit Remastered continues to deliver an unparalleled gaming experience, we have been undergoing an internal restructuring this month. This revamp is aimed at optimizing our processes, enhancing communication, and fostering a more collaborative and friendly environment.
Improved Weapon Skin Customization:
Prepare to take customization to the next level! We've overhauled the weapon skin customization system, allowing you to fine-tune every aspect of your arsenal. The enhanced customization options will empower you to craft weapons that suit your playstyle or personality perfectly. Get ready to customize weapons to make them uniquely yours. From ghillie skins down to charms, the possibilities are endless!
Relaunch of Devcast:
The Devcast is back, and it's better than ever! Join us as we relaunch our developer podcast series, offering you an insider's look into the creation of BattleBit Remastered. Every two weeks, discover the stories behind the scenes, learn about the challenges we've overcome, and gain insights into the creative process for updates and changes. Join us for laughs, stories, and maybe even a few secrets behind the design processes that go into building the game.
New Community Manager:
Introducing Terminalintel, your new Community Manager! They are here to be your voice within the development team. With a deep understanding of the BattleBit game, the community and a commitment to fostering a positive and engaging environment. Making sure your voice is heard and your ideas get the spotlight. Got questions, feedback, or just wanna shoot the breeze? They will be the one to chat with in the forums. Get ready for a whole new level of community love!
New Update Schedule:
We're introducing and working on a revamped update schedule. We learned from the past year that pushing updates out weekly wasn't the best option, as we had little to no time to actually test them out properly. With that being said, expect a more streamlined update process with content, optimizations, and surprises. We are already working on new ways to collect feedback from those in-game as well as storing more stats to better help us understand our player base. This in turn provides you with a dynamic gaming experience that keeps you anticipating what's coming next. Our goal this year is to create a steady stream of new features and improvements to keep BattleBit Remastered fresh, exciting and appealing. Though this implies a decrease in frequency, this will give us the opportunity to better test our updates/patches and figure out issues and bugs that may arise before pushing them onto the live servers. This upcoming update is no exception.
We've experienced highs and lows, learning from every change, update, and interaction along the way. 2023 marked a fantastic year for BattleBit, and our aim is to elevate the experience even further in 2024. A massive shoutout to each one of you for being a vital part of the BattleBit Remastered family. Your ongoing support, feedback, constructive criticism, and genuine love for the game are the driving forces behind our success. Here's to new epic battles, unforgettable moments, and the continual growth of the game we all hold dear. We're thrilled to have you join us on this exciting adventure!
Kind Regards,
The BattleBit Remastered Team
