Element Battle Royale Public Beta Testing

Element Battle Royale, Public Beta Testing

The public beta test will include the merging of the latest private beta builds with the main branch. I am very excited after almost exactly a year where the game has gone (patch notes below). As you might have seen in the short description the map is only roughly 30% done as I just recently learned how to model and I am redoing the whole thing, although I don't like the map being unfinished I feel it is necessary to post a build of some sort as the game has become stale and the servers are bugged like crazy. Once the update drops the map will begin to progress as almost all of the game play features are in a much better spot. While the beta is going on however, if you want to leave feedback please do so in my discord server. As this is the most direct way to talk to the community (https://discord.gg/NStAAkzww6).

Pricing and the Games Future

I will continue working on this game for free (until the map is finished and this build is finalized) but the final big update will cost anywhere from 1 - 3$, the bots will hopefully be in a place where you can play against them and it will help build a player base. The reason I need the game to cost money is because servers are not cheap to keep running after a while, so the money will be direct funding back into the game. I appreciate it if you will keep playing but I respect it if you don't want to as well. I do thank you all for the support and criticism you guys have given, and I will be doing a key giveaway at least every month on my server. I hope you guys are just as excited as I am for this public beta to release! - BiTz
