Hello, coaches! This is Moto from Asteroid Studio!
Time flies! It's already October! After a well-deserved holiday break, the team at the studio is back to work. Today, I’d like to provide you with the latest update on the major progress of Esports Godfather's upcoming update and share the estimated testing schedule. (Quick note: testing is expected to begin between late October and early November.)
First, let’s talk about the most anticipated feature—AI gameplay logic. The major overhaul of the AI is now almost complete, and we’re currently conducting internal testing within the studio. So far, the new AI logic is performing well, and we believe it will meet your expectations for game difficulty.
Next, regarding the scouting system. The content for the scouting system is about 80% finished, and we are wrapping up the final details. We estimate it will take about another week to configure and then it’ll be ready for testing.
Additionally, key features like simulated battles, stadium construction, player contracts, and emotions have also been mostly completed. These are in the content refinement and testing preparation stages.
To summarize, most of the new content for this major update (including parts not mentioned here) is nearing completion. In short, we’re almost done! Once we finish the internal approval process, we’ll release the update to you as soon as possible. (For specific update content, click here.)
Due to the limited testing capacity of our studio, to ensure the best experience for all coaches in the final version, we’ll first release this update on the test branch after we complete internal testing. Once everything checks out in the test branch, we will synchronize it with the official release.
(The public test is expected to start between late October and early November, with the duration to be determined. Additionally, this test will be open to all coaches. We will inform you about how to participate in the test through the upcoming announcements, so there’s no need to worry about missing out.)
Lastly, two new heroes will also be introduced in this test.
