Hello, Citizens!
Frostpunk's release was a HUGE thing for us, as you may imagine. It is our biggest and most complex game to date - and thanks to your amazing support - it may be our biggest success as well! The feedback we've received from you, from gaming press and influencers - has been truly amazing (and very useful!). We can't thank you enough - you are absolutely awesome!
We are receiving a lot of questions, too - about the game and our post-release development plans. We will try to answer some of them right now - so you are up to date with our agenda.
- - - QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS - - -
1. I've already finished the game! Do you plan to add more content?
It's a great question! And the simplest answer is: YES, we do plan to add more content. More complicated answer is: we have A LOT of ideas ourselves and we also listen to our community (that's you!). We plan to polish some rough edges of the original game - you're reporting some issues with difficulty balance, with minor bugs and such. We want to fix that! We also plan to add more modes and scenarios to the game. What are they going to be exactly? It's too early to announce - but you should be excited. And yes - a sandbox/endless mode is on our mind as well. Frostpunk is going to grow - all you have to do right now is to wait a little bit. We do plan to release a roadmap for our development plans as soon as we're ready. Stay tuned!
2. I have an idea that you should implement into the game! Do it, now, please!
Yup, we are aware that you have A LOT of cool ideas! Please do post them on forums or social media - we love to hear your thoughts. However, remember that we also have our ideas and our plans - so we can't promise that your particular idea can be implemented in any way in Frostpunk. We also love to read your different theories about the game's lore - so feel free to discuss them on our forums!
3. My game won't launch/I've encountered a bug. What can I do? Who can help me out?
Releasing a complex game like Frostpunk is not an easy process. We consider ouselves to be premium indie/double AA - which means we don't have 300 people in QA department. However, we are totally aware that some issues are still occuring. We are gathering data from your playthroughs, from your console output files and such. This helps us to investigate the issues - so we are very grateful for your feedback! Our programmers are working on patches as we speak. We don't want to count on any half-measures - fixes that get rid of one problem, creating another. That's why we have to test our solutions out before we are 100% sure that we can release them. In the meantime, we have prepared a robust Support Guide for you. It's filled with useful tips and tricks that should fix your game. It's a temporary fix - far from a perfect one - but we are doing what we can. However, we have discovered that solutions provided in our guide tend to solve most of the issues that are currently occuring in Frostpunk.
