Hey, driftheads! What up?)
It's been a long way to Steam release, but here it is. Early Access version b0.2.3. Only US server, as we've mentioned before. But EU server is coming right away.
We are expecting minor bugs, which could be annoying but shouldn't be critical. Please, report them through Steam Discussion or on our forum @ cruderocks.com
UPD: people already reporting keyboard not interacting >_<. If you are using any kind of antiviral with sandbox mode, try shut it down for a while. We will investigate into it ASAP.
Some things might be a bit frustrating without proper helping tips, we're working on it. If that's the case don't hesitate to ask. There is a community of players migrating from different social networks, who can actually help with an advice.
Account transfer from Facebook to Steam will be covered in a different announcement.
Content is a bit rough in some places because we drag it since web-client prototype, but we're already putting effort to replace it and polish some new before going public.
Supposedly, next week we're going to open Workshop where you can upload custom car models straight to the game and send it to a curated High Octane Drift Steam Workshop. In case your model will actually make to the game, you will be paid royalties by Steam. We are pretty excited what opportunities it will bring. but more on that later.
Drift On!
