The Black Death - [SIG] Emily
Greetings citizens of Mercia and welcome to Dev Blog #52!
We’ve got a Dev Update, our Founder’s name closure, a new form open for your Black Death moments and memories of 2017 and details of our next Blog posts!
There is a lot going on behind the scenes here at SIG. We have been gathering your feedback from the Steam Forums and also our feedback survey that we ran. We are currently working on a range of things for The Black Death. Some of these are as follows: Procedural loot system, Combat/fighting and also work on our AI. All of these tie into core areas of The Black Death so these may take some time for us to refine as we work on improving them.
We hope to bring you a Beta build on our Test_Beta server this weekend with some new changes added. As this is the weekend just before Christmas, if we do have an update to our Beta server we hope that you will all understand if there are issues present. This is of course intended as a testing ground for updates and patches. If you do find anything be sure to report it over on our
The Black Death: Google Bug Submission Form
Our Weekly Q&A will also be making a return to our Dev Blog’s in the new year, thank you for all your submitted questions. We certainly do have a pool to fish from!
Thank you to everyone who sent in their Steam Usernames/ID’s on our Founder’s Channel over on our Discord. This channel is now locked and set to a read only state for archiving.
