Repeated intro

Hey everyone, Terrors here. I'm making this announcement because a lot of people don't know that work on the game is still ongoing. We unfortunately haven't been able to update the default version of the game for two and a half years due to all the big changes we've made to the game. We also have less people working on the game now than before so it's going to be a while before everything is polished up enough to push to the default version.

What changed

0 fixes1 addition2 changes0 removals
  • Gameplay
  • Server
addedIn the meantime if you want to see what we've been up to with the game then to access the newest public version go to the games properties, betas and select the build called 'owf_staging_prep'. It has a ton of improvements and bug fixes that the default version simply lacks due to not being updated in a very long time, such as making holstering weapons to parkour optional and reducing the storage space down from 36 GB to only 16 GB ! Also if you're looking to obtain all achievements then switching to the 'owf_staging_prep' build is currently required as some achievements were only added after the default version was last updated.
changedWe do also have a private developer build called 'owf_development_build' which is usually even more up to date than the other developer build. However it's more likely to have glitches and is only accessible by supporters for helping make these updates possible since the money from game sales don't go to us. If you are a supporter and can't access the build then join the hdtf discord server and check out the #faq channel on how to verify yourself.
changedSpeaking of the discord server; if you would like to ask the devs questions, keep up to date with the changes to the game or view all the current patch notes then feel free to join the hdtf discord server !

I should however mention that this is a developer build. It's stable enough that there shouldn't be any game breaking issues and with all the patching that's been done it might even be less buggy than the default version, but you will still see the occasional visual glitch like the players arms not matching the act you're in. If you're ok with that then I cannot understate just how much I would highly recommend switching your version of the game over to 'owf_staging_prep' if you haven't done so already. In my opinion it's by far the best way to experience this masterpiece enjoy the game!
