Hey H-Hour Community!
On Saturday we released a patch which was primarily about building out our Armory to allow everyone access to more characters in game. The patch also included some long requested equipment fixes along with other content. If you missed it, you can find the notes Here.
Sharing one of the new characters:

Our next patch is planned for the 12th of February and we are looking to add, as much of this as possible:
- Workshop upload app- refined
- Adding the Armory to the Lobby
- Controller support- At the top of our list
- Bug and more Bug fixing.... ongoing and takes a lot of time to tackle
I want to take a few minutes to discuss Early Access, H-Hour and game development in general. The Early Access program on Steam is a means to allow players to gain immediate access to a game that is still under development and to influence that development. Players tend to gain knowledge of the development process by being a part of the evolution of the game. It also allows developers like SOF Studios to gain feedback on their games so changes can be made to meet our community’s needs. Steam advises players they should not buy an Early Access game if they are not excited about playing it in its current state and being a part of that process.
Check out this link on the Steam page to get more information.
We want to release H-Hour as fast as we can as a FULL RELEASE title but H-Hour is very much an Early Access work in progress and in its current state, not where we expect to be with the features and play-ability on full release. We are aware some have become frustrated with the development process and understand that this happens in many Early Access titles. I do want to assure you that we are watching the feedback from the community and we are aware of your concerns and wishes. Right now we need you on the servers providing feedback on bugs and glitches so we can work together to make this the game we all envisioned.
Hang in there with us. All those missing elements members are bringing to our attention will be addressed before H-Hour is complete. Thank you everyone for your continued support.
More next Monday!
