Hey Runners!

In today's release, we want to highlight a new map called SWAN RIVER based on a community map of the same name originally developed by a Runner named Trudin in the workshop. We contacted him and he agreed right away that we can adapt it to be included among the various game modes. Again, thanks for the opportunity!



The original map was designed to be played with the Edelweiss DLC so we needed to convert it for Vanilla. A few days ago, we thought that why wouldn't we make the map playable in Vanilla Invasion AND in WW2 Invasion after all? So here we go, we have the first map included in both!
If you guys want to give Trudin a thumbs up on the map, feel free to leave him a message under his project here!



The map is also playable in Dominance PvP and while mentioning this gamemode, it'll be time to organize the next PvP session for those who are interested. Usually events are being organized in Discord!




We also reworked the Man vs. Zombies gamemode as a pre-Halloween release by adding difficulty progression relying on monster difficulty increasing across the campaign, rather than controlling the difficulty through the overall amount of enemies. Therefore, no more high tier mobs in the first stage but quite a few of them in later stages!



For a complete list of changes, please check the changelog below!

Hey Runners!

We have some juicy news for you today!

First of all, this month we celebrated the 7th anniversary of the release of RWR! We discussed internally various milestones we've reached the last couple of years and we certainly didn't anticipate what we have today. The number of weapons and equipment has grown from around 50 to over 200 these days, and the amount of maps has doubled and the vehicles have gone even beyond that!

Today, we also have something totally new! Indeed, we have a new VETERAN PACK DLC for you!



The main feature of the DLC is the extended stash capacity which extends your stash slots from 300 to 500!
It also adds 64 new/alternate and mainly more realistic soldier models for the players who own the DLC, alternate airdrop vehicle skins, a special radio call, a new chat player icon and some new animations and poses!
Thanks to GK_PPSH41, Pogonop, RedFox, Return_dirt, TerranConfederacy for their contributions!
You can find the new DLC and more info HERE!







Something New On The Horizon:


Time for a big announcement! We have been hard at work on a THIRD DLC pack for RWR! We are now publicly announcing RUNNING WITH RIFLES: EASTERN FRONT - another WW2 expansion pack! This pack will add the Soviet Red Army to the game and cover a variety of famous battles from the conflict. You will journey across some of the most famous locations of the Eastern front, including Stalingrad, Kursk, Berlin, and more, all based on the historical terrain where these clashes occurred! Though we are not announcing a release date at this time, the game's storepage is already being set up so you can Wishlist the DLC and get news about it as development comes along! We are hoping to release some time in 2023, but as said above, we won't set a release date yet, as we don't know how quickly things will move.



With the expansion we'd also like to mention we have officially expanded our team with the addition of community member "Unit G17".
He's been a great help to the team over the past several months and was heavily involved in the development of the WW2: UNDEAD gamemode, and will be working with us in creating the EASTERN FRONT expansion pack! He brings his expertise in scripting to the team and is helping out with a variety of other tasks as well.
Warm welcome to you, Unit!



Development began some time ago, shortly after the release of RUNNING WITH RIFLES: EDELWEISS. We were eager to make an Eastern Front-themed DLC to complete our coverage of the most well-know theaters of WWII - the Pacific, the Western Front, and the Eastern Front. However, current events made us reexamine our position when the Russo-Ukrainian War began in February, just days before we were set to announce the DLC, and we thought it too distasteful to announce it then. Nonetheless, we still wish to move on with our plans to develop and release RUNNING WITH RIFLES: EASTERN FRONT. We're lucky to have such a diverse community of gamers from all over the world, and no matter what country you come from, we hope to have your support. You can look forward to fighting some of the largest and most well-know battles of the Eastern Front!

You can wishlist the EASTERN FRONT DLC HERE!

RUNNING WITH RIFLES - JackMayol
Hey Runners,

It's update time with some really exciting news for you guys!
First of all, this update will include 2 "new" maps, one for Vanilla and one for Pacific (see WW2 section below). They are not entirely new, hence the quotes, as the Vanilla map "Warsalt Legacy" is based on the EDELWEISS map "Varsity" but has been heavily reworked and adapted for Vanilla needs, implying larger roads and also a bigger ruin city part as we all loooove those massive close quarter combats in destroyed cities, don't we? The map will be playable in quick match as an assault map and has been added to the online invasion map rotator.

The map has also been added to the Dominance map rotator, more precisely the ruin part as "King of the Hill" mode but also as a normal conquest substage.
We also added a new soldier type, the "Ranger". He is about as rare as the grenadier but is behaving differently on most aspects. Beside being a squad leader (max 3 squad members though!), he is rather aggressive, faster and is equipped with an automatic rifle and tends to switch to his underbarrel grenade launcher when facing larger groups of enemies. As secondary, he is equipped with a SMAW which makes him a versatile tank destroying unit.
He has a strong body armor on top of it and likes to call for Gunship support, ouch!



Next, let's come to a topic that has been on the suggestion list of several Runners or potential Runners pretty much since the first versions of the game were made public: controller support.
We stated repeatedly that in RWR, albeit being a top down shooter, not only the aiming direction matters but also the distance of the crosshair as the projectiles have ballistics, and the world is entirely 3D like on most conventional shooters that are not top-down. This made us come to the conclusion that having a controller support would not bring the joy that one would expect.

After the announcement of the Steam Deck, we brought this option on the table again, as the Steam Deck features a trackpad for aiming, similar to the Steam Controller, both in that aspect having potential to be seriously taken into consideration. The next thought was if regular twin stick controllers without trackpad could be an option too, and after some testing, tweaking and the addition of a minor aim assist it was indeed surprisingly playable in so that we decided to add general gamepad support as well. This has been tested with PS4 controller, Trust GTX 1230, Steam Controller and last but not least of course also on the Steam Deck, which was the device that fired up the whole idea.

Playing with gamepad, we'd suggest to start with the "casual difficulty", which gives enough challenge to sink your teeth into your controller - at least this was the case for us but we are definitely not the most advanced controller players out there! :)

For a full list of change, check the changelog below!




We also do have some new content for RUNNING WITH RIFLES: PACIFIC being published today.
We're bringing over an RWR: Vanilla map into Pacific; "Vigil Island" is being transformed into "Wake Island". With some modifications to the terrain, this will be a King-of-the-Hill style map set in the middle of the campaign. Included is also two new weapons - a Scoped M1941 Johnson Rifle for the US Marine Snipers, and a rare Type Ko semi-automatic rifle for the Japanese forces. Some extra tweaks have been made to a few Japanese weapons - the Type 4 Garand and Type 100 Paratrooper SMG can now both equip bayonets, and the Type 100/44 SMG now makes use of a full-size bayonet instead of a short one. Paired with this are the usual assortment of some bug fixes and balance adjustments to keep things alive.




We can't make this post without dropping a line about the actual situation in the Ukraine. We at Osumia Games are blessed having a community from all over the world with different cultures, who just want to have fun together.
Military conflicts should only be fiction and we are vehemently rejecting any kind of aggression. We stand with peace!

MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR!

Don't forget to join the fun on Running with Rifles Discord and we'd be more than happy if you could let us know if you like the game and the WW2 DLCs by leaving a review on Steam, as it helps us a lot!
Thank you!

Keep on running,

RUNNING WITH RIFLES - JackMayol
Hey Runners!

First of all... Ho-Ho-Ho! Osumia Games wish you all a...



2021 is coming to an end and it has been a very special period for us. Thank you all so much for the support over the years, as we know some Runners are still here from the beginning of our journey!
This year 2021, the RUNNING WITH RIFLES family has grown by another 315.000 members and on top of that, over 150.000 DLC units sold complete those insane numbers. This is by far a record year, and that is 6 years after the release of the game! It looks like continuously publishing updates and having a very strong modding scene has paid off.
Speaking about records, we broke another one for concurrent players back in May with over 14.000 Runners playing at the same time!
We certainly weren't prepared for the sudden influx yet with some intense server management we came through it! :)
Some other insights about the year 2021's review include 30 updates with 7 major ones and still having an awesome community which provided new goodies for 2 community boxes!



Alright, enough with the numbers as we also have another update being released!
While the Halloween event was mainly a success, we decided to make a (small this time!) Xmas event by including a new enemy type, the bad Santa!
The bad Santa is similar to the Elite Ripper from the Halloween event, hence a pain! He will always drop a Xmas gift on death, which is mainly stuff for sale to avoid the dogged hunt for temporary rares that we experienced during the last event.



We've also prepared an update for owners of the RUNNING WITH RIFLES: WW2 DLCs!

We're adding in one new weapon to the game, as well as one new 'undead' enemy type to the special Undead gamemode, plus a variety of other changes.
The new weapon is the Sauer M30 Luftwaffe 'Drilling', a unique shotgun and rifle combination weapon meant to help a crashed Pilot survive in the wilderness. Featuring a powerful double-barrel Shotgun mode that can switch to a devastating 9.3x74mm Rifle mode, this gun packs a punch! It can be found carried by Fallschirmjaeger 'Veteran' and 'Sniper' soldiers on the game's final maps, Operation: Sealion and Operation: Varsity. It is also available to the player in the WW2: Undead mode right in the Armory, but locked behind a bit of XP!

Speaking of the Undead mode, regarding that new enemy type being added: the "Undead Spitter"! This armless abomination horks acidic gobs of liquid to a medium distance, and can put some pressure on the player to stay mobile. With the new Spitter we are also adding in Opel Blitz trucks to the map, as the Spitter can damage those, and occasionally a regular Shambler might spit acid on them too (but they will only spit on vehicles, not on regular soldiers.)



Alongside these changes, back to the PACIFIC theatre, the M1 Garand 60mm Grenade Launcher weapon is being redesigned - it will now feature two firemodes which switch its projectile type. The main firemode will now be the M49A2 High Explosive Mortar shell (adapted to fire from a rifle), and the other will be the M9A1 Anti-Tank Grenade.
Furthermore a couple balance changes and bug fixes have been made, and we updated the names of a couple weapons discovered to be inaccurate. Full changelog below!

Don't forget to join the fun on Running with Rifles Discord and we'd be more than happy if you could let us know if you like the game and the WW2 DLCs by leaving a review on Steam, as it helps us a lot!
Thank you!

Keep on running,

  • soldiers: UKF Commando model combination with suppressed weapon and sniper suit - fixed issue where the Commando model was not drawing when wounded
  • Undead soldiers: slightly tweaked the Resurrector summoning sound
