Hey guys,

I've spent some time optimizing and fixing a handful of bugs. Here is whats in today's update.

Fixes/Changes:
  • Performance Improvements
  • Footstep loudness is based on player speed (you can walk quietly, by moving slower/crouching).
  • Red Dot/Holo/Laser Sights work with Night Vision
  • Scope adjustments for 4x and 12x
  • New targets in shooting range to help with sniping.
  • It is easier to input the code for the objective
  • Left handed players can hold tablet correctly
  • Laser sight is more reliable, and is effective up to medium range.
  • Left handed players' shield is synced over the network.
  • Aug can shoot with laser sight attachment
Known Issue: player models can randomly turn blue after getting shot

An updated roadmap will be coming soon in January, along with more content and fixes in an upcoming patch.

Best,

Dante

Hey guys,

The past few months have been amazing. Onward has grown a lot since August 30th, and will continue to progress even more in 2017! I'm very thankful for such a great community, as well as your patience with me being a single dev. I do have one big announcement for you today: Valve has invited me to work on Onward at their offices in January, this means that many more awesome developments are coming in Onward's future!

Also, I have been reading and staying up to date with the community's suggestions as well as bug reports, and more updates/patches are on the way. A new patch should be out soon, but I need to do a few more tests. I hope you all have a great New Years!

Best,

Dante

Hey guys,

I'm truly sorry for the issues you all have been having with the latest patch. I'm going to be reverting back to an older build, until I can pinpoint and fix these issues. I will get a follow up patch out as soon as possible.

Main changes from latest patch to previous :
Note: These features will come back once issues have been fixed
  • Older Quarantine map
  • No wrist watch
  • No snap turns for Touch users (Touch users will have to set their sensors up in in a roomscale fashion until an updated patch is released).
If you have free time to help test and debug, please join the Onward Discord: https://discord.gg/yPBrHx4 and send me a message! I have a beta branch set up for testing.
