Just a quick heads up, applications are open for another week. You can find that here: Feedback Application

We would also like to clear some things up pertaining to this.

First, this application does not mean this is the one and only way we are going to get feedback. Social platforms are still a great place to provide feedback, and we intend to be more actively engaged there. We will be posting more official discussion threads before and after updates, dev casts, etc. This is something we should have been doing more frequently as it’s an acknowledgment that we are actively listening to you.

Secondly, the Feedback Group is more of a focus group. Members of the group will be asked specific questions by the devs that come up in development, better informing decision making during the process. This is different than our social platforms like Discord and Reddit, where we look for new ideas from the community as well as bugs and issues. We intend to frequently rotate this group of people to allow members, of all of our communities, to feel equally heard. We learned from our mistakes with the previous feedback team we setup and are looking to improve the way we run it.

We understand that in game feedback would be a great feature, as our players well, literally are playing the game. We do not have this at the time. It’s something we have acknowledged and are working towards. It’s something we learned and as the game continues to evolve, we also are learning new ways to improve many things, not just sound.

Lastly, we understand this update has taken some time. Players have been divided for months about the sound update. The amount of feedback and issues we have received has been acknowledged. We are actively working on this. Why it was not reverted could be pointed to many of reasons. But at the end of the day, it’s something we learned and are improving on.

In conclusion, we are a small development team, trying to make a fun and interactive video game. We’re doing our best to learn and improve everyday with how we interact, communicate, and update our game. We are still in Early Access and the game will frequently see updates that may seem dramatic maybe even outright crazy to some.

The Battlebit Remastered team thanks each and every one of you for your continued patience. Rest assured, we're not going anywhere.

The Trust and Safety team has made some updates to our in-game Community Guidelines, you can check it out here: https://joinbattlebit.com/guidelines/

To be clear, these aren’t new rules - we’ve always had these behavior expectations in place. These guidelines were put together to be a more approachable way for the community to understand these expectations, in contrast to the legal jargon of the EULA.

While these guidelines are nothing new, we do hope you take a moment to read them through. Our goal in this is to be more transparent and communicative about our safety practices, and we thank you for the feedback that inspired us to create this.

Have you been a fan of Battlebit Remastered? Enjoy action-packed strategic battles that outshine your adversaries in the battleground? If you have ever wished for ways to be a part of the game you adore so much, then this is the opportunity in which to have an impact!

We are looking for passionate players to be a part of our Feedback Team. This is your chance to get first looks at how Battlebit Remastered could shape up in the future, in addition to offering crucial insights that could impact new features, balancing adjustments, and more currently in the development process.

• Visit: Battlebit Feedback Team Application
  
• Fill out the application form with your details and tell us why you would be a great fit for the feedback team. A discord profile is required!
  
• Submit your application and wait for our team to get in touch!

Only a limited number of spots are available, and we're looking for the most dedicated players, new or veteran, that are able to help us take Battlebit Remastered into new heights. Don't miss on this opportunity to be part of your favorite game’s development journey should you have what it takes.

Let's make Battlebit Remastered even better. Join our Feedback Team now!

Kind Regards,
The Battlebit Remastered team

Apologies for the late update. 2023 was an exciting year for us entering Early Access, but it was also a massive learning year for us as well. As we entered the new year we’ve been hard at work with a lot of new processes and updates.

Roadmap update:
BattleBit Remastered has chosen to stray away from using a roadmap at this time. This decision allows the development team the flexibility to address emerging priorities, respond to player feedback promptly, and make dynamic adjustments without being constrained by a predetermined timeline. We are working on a way to create a more balanced expectation and better transparency between the community and Developers.

Internal Restructure:
To ensure that BattleBit Remastered continues to deliver an unparalleled gaming experience, we have been undergoing an internal restructuring this month. This revamp is aimed at optimizing our processes, enhancing communication, and fostering a more collaborative and friendly environment.

Improved Weapon Skin Customization:
Prepare to take customization to the next level! We've overhauled the weapon skin customization system, allowing you to fine-tune every aspect of your arsenal. The enhanced customization options will empower you to craft weapons that suit your playstyle or personality perfectly. Get ready to customize weapons to make them uniquely yours. From ghillie skins down to charms, the possibilities are endless! ⁠

Relaunch of Devcast:
The Devcast is back, and it's better than ever! Join us as we relaunch our developer podcast series, offering you an insider's look into the creation of BattleBit Remastered. Every two weeks, discover the stories behind the scenes, learn about the challenges we've overcome, and gain insights into the creative process for updates and changes. Join us for laughs, stories, and maybe even a few secrets behind the design processes that go into building the game.

New Community Manager:
Introducing Terminalintel, your new Community Manager! They are here to be your voice within the development team. With a deep understanding of the BattleBit game, the community and a commitment to fostering a positive and engaging environment. Making sure your voice is heard and your ideas get the spotlight. Got questions, feedback, or just wanna shoot the breeze? They will be the one to chat with in the forums. Get ready for a whole new level of community love!

New Update Schedule:
We're introducing and working on a revamped update schedule. We learned from the past year that pushing updates out weekly wasn't the best option, as we had little to no time to actually test them out properly. With that being said, expect a more streamlined update process with content, optimizations, and surprises. We are already working on new ways to collect feedback from those in-game as well as storing more stats to better help us understand our player base. This in turn provides you with a dynamic gaming experience that keeps you anticipating what's coming next. Our goal this year is to create a steady stream of new features and improvements to keep BattleBit Remastered fresh, exciting and appealing. Though this implies a decrease in frequency, this will give us the opportunity to better test our updates/patches and figure out issues and bugs that may arise before pushing them onto the live servers. This upcoming update is no exception.

We've experienced highs and lows, learning from every change, update, and interaction along the way. 2023 marked a fantastic year for BattleBit, and our aim is to elevate the experience even further in 2024. A massive shoutout to each one of you for being a vital part of the BattleBit Remastered family. Your ongoing support, feedback, constructive criticism, and genuine love for the game are the driving forces behind our success. Here's to new epic battles, unforgettable moments, and the continual growth of the game we all hold dear. We're thrilled to have you join us on this exciting adventure!

Kind Regards,
The BattleBit Remastered Team
