Evening all,
Tomorrow is the big day -- our Custom Map Workshop is going public!
To celebrate this occasion, we will also run a special sale on H-Hour for 14 days. So if you have been holding off buying H-Hour, this would be the time to get the game and join us all on the new community maps. Sale will start tomorrow, April 14th at 10 AM Pacific. For those interested, keep an eye on our Steam store page tomorrow!
We will also be running a variety of workshop map servers for you to check out the new creations. The team is still discussing what that content specifically will be but expect the servers to be online by mid-morning at the latest.
The map makers will do their best to get on the servers with everyone. They would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions. Please remember though this is a passion project for them not a job, so be kind, be supportive of the many hours they have put into doing their map(s) for us all and help by providing constructive feedback.
