Hello all,
with RIP releasing soon as Early Access on Steam,
having cloud server specific preparations to ensure a smooth connection.
We need to polish a bit more using the feedback of the closed beta.
we wanted to mention our roadmap and release process for such an ambitious project. We want to make it right and at a pace that we can bring up patches, new content and address bug reports and other issues properly.
With this in mind and as a thank you for the early supporters, we have decided
to bring the game out in 3 tier modules during the Early Access development each of them aimed with a 2-4 months gap until it's being unlocked and playable.
To clarify, if you purchase RIP with Module 1 you will get the other Modules and the full release at no additional, it was confusing for some.
We do not charge for ingame items and for additional Modules.
Module 1: Ground Forces module Early Access starting price of $9,99 USD
Will be the ground forces module that entitles the following.
- 4 different soldier classes (Assault, Medic,...)
- 4 different maps
- Ground vehicles like Tanks, BMP's, Jeeps, Cars, Buggies.
- 4 different play modes CTF, FFA, TDM, CP.
- AI Bots Soldiers fighting on both sides.
- 20 Max Player per Match
- Full Gamepad control support in Match (settings need to be adjusted the first time!)
- User login of a score, kills, playtime.
- User problem and cheater reporting tool.
- The ranking system that will unlock weapons depending on level.
- Starting out with default Assault Rifle, Sniper, Shotgun, Pistol, Knife, and Grenades at level 1.
- Ability to support others by throwing medkits and ammo kits in multiplayer.
- Kill zone restriction marking the end of a map.
This is already in the game and will be worked on and polished during the
Module 1 patch roadmap that should last for 2 months with weekly/bi-weekly updates!
Module 2: Air Forces module Early Access price increase to $19,99 USD
after 2 to 4 Months in Early Access

Module 3: Sea Forces module Early Access price increase to $29,99 USD
