Update 29: A New Home
Greetings Orc Hunters!
Today we're bringing you a new way to test yourself against the power of the Horde. We've redesigned The Wave Attack game mode to be faster and more replayable.
You'll start each round with the base equipment. Every time you beat a wave, you'll get a random selection of options to upgrade or swap one piece of your gear. To make all this possible, Home Island got a nice makeover. Plus, the new Double Damage Potion will help you rack up those multi kills!
We've also added Steam Leaderboards to tell us who's the best Orc Hunter out there!
Update 29 Notes
New:

Redesigned Horde Attack mode - Fight your way through the Horde while upgrading your items!
Added global leaderboards for Horde Attack mode.
Damage numbers now appear upon successful attack.
Get your hands on the new Double Damage potion to gain an edge in a fight!
Redesigned Menu for more simplicity and speed.
Redesigned Home Island for looks (yay!) and better layout during Horde Attack.
Changes:

Increased damage gained per upgrade level for dual crossbows.
Throwing darts now deal armor piercing damage to make them a worthy option on higher levels.
Bugfixes:

Fixed a bug where orcs would sometimes get stuck in falling animation after touching the ground.
Fixed a bug where Wave Attack games could not be joined once they started.
Fixed a bug where push-to-talk feature would sometimes stop working.

In this update we take a look on the flow of the battle, to make it more engaging and skill-based.
Previously, when taking too much damage, Players had to retreat and wait to regenerate health. This limited the pace of the engagements and promoted overly cautious play.
This time, we're introducing instant Health Potions and Power Potions that drop from killed enemies during combat. These give the Player constant boost of health and weapon power, as long as he kills enemies efficiently. Let's get on with that steamrolling!
Here are some battle flow improvements we introduced:

Health Potions will now drop from monsters when Player is not at full health.
Player health regeneration has been reduced and its delay increased.
All special weapon powers now recharge in 60 seconds.
Power Potions (previously orbs) now drop three times as often and fully recharge special weapon powers.
Grab these in battle to instantly restore your weapon's special powers!
Hotfix 24b Notes

Piercer Bow's special power will now have wider area of effect to make hitting enemies easier.
Scroll of Conjured Spear now becomes Scroll of Thunder.
When the End Portal opens, it will now start attracting stronger and stronger enemies.

Healthbars will now display Enemy's name and level.
Other Improvements:

Players can now choose degree of Play Area rotation.

Hey there orc hunters!
We have a trove of new stuff for you today. With brand new Weapon Mastery system, each time you use an item, it will gain some XP points towards new power level. With each new level, you'll unlock meaningful upgrades, like better damage, longer reach or bigger power range.
To pay for all these new upgrades, you're going to need an orcish ton of gold! Luckily, gold is relatively easy to come by in Broken Lands, as orc purses and hidden chests will keep you in good supply.
Plus, the good ol' Wooden Shield gained a new awesome power. Shield-throw those pesky orcs into oblivion!

New:

The starter gear - Sword & Shield - has received a new Power - Disk Throw. Live that Captain America fantasy!
Weapon Mastery system - using weapons now grant players Mastery Levels for them.
Weapon Upgrade system - Mastery Levels unlock special upgrades that make items vastly more powerful.
Gold drops - monsters and chests now drop gold used to upgrade items.
Added item tab to the Menu - one convenient place to upgrade your items and check their stats.
Every item now has a detailed description with its properties. These can be viewed in the menu.
Improvements:

Rewritten Matchmaking code to use 80% less data and solve constant loading bug some players were experiencing.
Controller code, Shaders, Save System, Main Menu and Motion system have all been rewritten in preparations for Playstation VR version.
Settings Tab has be redone for better readability.
Items will now play a distinct sound when their powers are recharged.
Added sound feedback to menu.

Added new Quest - A Burning Matter
