Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone, our team from Steel Potato Games wishes everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We hope you've had a great year and will have a wonderful Christmas this week and that you're enjoying the 35% Discount (highest to date) sale for Pact of Steel!

We're pushing out an update for you guys today and will have an upcoming update after the Holiday Sale is over.

Patch Notes

  • Placed Christmas Decor around the Menu Map

  • Reduced VRAM usage by reducing certain 8k textures to 2k

  • Deleted various unused assets to reduce file size

  • Increase Allies and Axis Troop Transport to max 5 units spawned, 4->5

  • Removed debug unit from shop

  • Buffed Allies and Axis Troop Transport Infantry Range from 2500->2700

  • Updated Allies and Axis collision detection for grenadier

  • Updated Allies and Axis grenadier shop description

  • Fixed Cromwell Tank not align properly to map terrain

  • Removed path finding on top of Bunker Style A

  • Increased Anti Personal mine default explosion radius 170->180

  • Fixed typo in Allies Anti Tank Cannon name

  • Increased M18 GMC reload speed from 1 shell every 20 seconds 1 to every 15 seconds (.05->.067)

  • Removed a few legacy Cascade partial emitters replaced with Niagara

  • Adjusted Map Bounds on Bridge lvl 4

  • Added additional lookout towers on Bridge 5

  • Fixed duplicated barrel assets on Desert 5

  • Fixed foliage on path on Desert 5

  • Fixed some awkwardly placed trees on Desert 5

  • Fixed inverted normal on a few rocks on Desert 5

  • Added an additional lookout tower on Desert 5

  • Miscellaneous bug and stability fixes

  • Updated genre to "Indie" as steam has added this tag now

  • Made adjustments to System Requirements on the Store page as technology has evolved since the release of Pact of Steel

We now believe the minimum system requirements should be as follows.

Minimum System Requirments:

  • GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB / AMD RX 580 8GB

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-10th gen / Ryzen 7 3800X

  • Disk Space increase 10gb --> 12gb

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 / AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-13th gen / Ryzen 7 7700X

  • Disk Space increase 10gb --> 12gb

We are really shooting for GPU's with more than 6gb of VRAM although the game can run with as little as 3GB of VRAM on potato settings.
