Join us in the Holiday Beta test!
Runners, we are deploying a public beta build for After the Fall on Steam and Quest ONLY to test fixes addressing the current Horde Mode issues, as well as re-calibrated chipsets.
Come to our Discord channel for access and more details: discord.gg/afterthefall
BETA DETAILS
This build contains all current content (no new maps or weapons) and will only connect you to other beta players, but any progress you make, we'll make sure will carry over into the February 22nd update. In this build, we're looking for your feedback on the following matters:
-Horde Mode
We've addressed the issue where an enemy does not make it to the battleground and is not able to be killed, thus halting your progress with no way to end the Horde Mode run, usually between wave 30-40 previously. Please confirm if this now works as we intend. Further suggestions will be considered after our February 22nd update.
-Chipset calibration
The chipsets for various weapons have been readjusted to the intended values, please let us know if the intended workings for it feel balanced. Further balancing will be considered after our February 22nd update.
-Quick Play
Quick Play is now an option from the Harvest-o-mat. This should allow players who are looking for a party to get up and running. For those players that set up a party, people should automatically be joined up.
KNOWN ISSUES IN THIS BUILD:
- It is not possible to select Nightmare or Horror modes (this is a UI bug)
- When going in the Private Match menu, it is possible to open the quick play menu (UI bug)
- Sometimes playing Quick Play causes players to not be able to progress past the first door when opened
- Quick play sometimes causes a matchmaking error message
- A new player can get into a horror match when doing Quick play for the first time
Some known issues we are looking at but are not yet sure how reproduceable:
- An invisible wall at the beginning of Quarantine Centre
- If players form a party and then use Quick Play, we've seen a matchmaking error code 0
- We've had one instance of a new player always starting via Quick Play on Horror Mode - we have a log for this but we've only had it reported once
We'd like to thank you for your patience in the meantime; we ran into various issues internally that caused delays in pushing out these highly requested fixes and it was important for us to make sure we hit certain milestones first that would allow us to run this beta build for you.
Once again, for access: discord.gg/afterthefall
See you there!
