Hey Folks,

Patch 1.1 is now available on the Public Test Branch which you are now able to opt into to download the very latest non-stable patches from steam. We've made every effort to ensure that it's as bug free as possible but we are aware of some outstanding issues.

Click here to read the full patch notes.

Now without further adieu I'm sure you're interested to find out how you can get access to the PTB, read on!


What is the Public Test Branch?
The Public Test Branch is a optional branch for War for the Overworld on steam where you can download the very latest Public Test Builds of an upcoming patch. These versions will likely contain more bugs than the final release but will be available sooner than their final counterparts.

Opting into the PTB will give you the opportunity to play with the latest changes we've made to the game if you're willing to take a few bugs head on. When participating in a test build you'll be able to report bugs directly to us and help ensure that the final release is as bug-free as possible.

How to Opt-In

To Opt-in to the WFTO PTB follow these steps:

1. Right click on War for the Overworld in your Steam Library and select properties
   
2. In the properties window select the "Betas" tab
   
3. Select "PublicTestBranch" from the List of Betas
   
4. Close the properties
   
5. War for the Overworld should now update, if it does not, open the properties window again and this time select "Verify integrity of steam cache" this will force a file check
   
6. Once the download is complete and you have launched the game you should see "Patch 1.1 PTB" as the version String.

How to Opt-out

When the final version goes live to steam you will need to opt-out of the PTB to download the final version.

To Opt-out of the WFTO PTB follow these steps:

1. Right click on War for the Overworld in your Steam Library and select properties
   
2. In the properties window select the "Betas" tab

4. Close the properties
   
5. War for the Overworld should now update, if it does not, open the properties window again and this time select "Verify integrity of steam cache" this will force a file check

Reporting Bugs
As the PTB will be on the very bleeding edge of WFTO's development when it's active you may encounter some bugs we've yet to root out during the QA Process. If you encounter any bugs we'd love it if you could help us nail them down by simply posting a quick bug report in our PTB Bug Report forums.

To best ensure we can address the issue as soon as possible please be sure to follow the bug reporting guidelines we've laid out for bug reports!

We'll be attempting to patch the PTB regularly with updates that will be fixing reported bugs so please keep us posted.

Cheers all and we hope that you enjoy playing our latest updates on the PTB!
