Although we treat this patch as a standard "major" one, I am convinced that for many of you it will be just as important as a Mega Patch. Unfortunately, we did not translate everything into all languages. Expect this in the next patches.

Improvements/Additions:

• The Fractal timeline has been added to the game. You can read more about it in the previous weekly report.
  
• All Igor's companions now have a "relationship factor" that changes it relation to the player’s decisions. This factor will be very important in the future.
  
• The "Old documents" quest now has a choice that affects companions and the game world.
  
• The "Meeting with Tarakan" quest now has additional consequences in "A few things from an old hideout" and has an influence on the game world.
  
• The "A few things from an old hideout" quest now has a choice that can affect your companions.
  
• The consequences of the decision from "Hacking into NAR servers" mission in "Mikhail in trouble" quest have been rebuilt in order not to be as unambiguously binary as before.
  
• The "Hermit" quest now has a choice that affects companions.
  
• The "Power plant’s plans" quest now has a choice that affects companions and the game world. Keep in mind that the prison is not finished yet, so the consequences of one of the choices may not be very clear at this time.
  
• The Level Selector has been heavily designed due to the feedback we received from players. There still may be small bugs that we'll fix in the following patches.
  
• Now while leaning, Igor will more realistically twist his weapon
  
• For people who do not like excessive brutality - Gore System can be turned off in the game menu.

General:

• We've improved some of the Gore System components - blood should now display properly on different surfaces, and cardboard should look better
  
• Maps should now clearly indicate the area in which the player can move. They should also have more detail and be clearer.
  
• A lot of minor location corrections. Of course there are still a lot of mistakes and we will work on them.
  
• Fixed place where soldiers could shoot you through the walls (thanks to @ARcher and @nox from the Steam Forums)
  
• Fixed place where you could fall under the map on Kopachi (thanks to @hmasi and @SunBeam from Steam Forums)

AI/Animations:

• Opponents should notice Igor so easily when they find another soldier's body.
  
• Shot particle will no longer obstruct the entire screen when firing a rifle with a scope.
  
• During takedown, the soldier's threat indicator will no longer be visible.
  
• Now soldiers should correctly stop searching for a player when he disappears from their sight for a long time.

I'm so excited to have Goblin Summer Camp up and available for people to try out. There is a lot more content coming down the pipe, and i'm looking for your feedback to help determine that direction!


Take a look at my last dev log video to see where the game is at right now.



Thank you everyone who supported, tested, and helped in getting to where we are now.

Hey, folks! It’s been awhile.

As you may know we were busy with console versions of Redemption and a mobile CCG project in Ash of Gods universe but now it is time to move further and to make another announcement.

Ash of Gods: Redemption was released about 2 years ago but we didn’t have the time to finish its multiplayer. A great deal of players were upset about it because they craved to play with friends and fight each other. So we never gave up the idea to make things right one day. And now we're gonna make it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1295480/Ash_of_Gods_Arena/

We are going to release Ash of Gods: Arena, an online game based on Redemption’s multiplayer, as a Steam Early Access title to improve it over time with your feedback.

So, what can you expect and how it will be different from the original?



There are few reasons behind our decision to make a stand alone title. Since the release of Redemption we received a lot of feedback about the combat, and reviews were mixed. So we’ve decided to change core gameplay, to make it less random, more rewarding, with a great deal of tactical options for a player. But since Redemption’s multiplayer is binded with single-player mode, it is hard to change anything without breaking the whole game.

Another reason to do that is to significantly increase the number of players to let them play against each other, instead of fighting AI. That’s why we’ve decided to release Arena as a free-to-play title. It will allow us to attract more fans of turn-based combats without having them pay for the original game.



As I mentioned before, the game will be released as a Steam Early Access title. This way we can test changes and add new features based on your feedback. On the release it will be a fully functional multiplayer from Redemption with improved drop and stability, and we are going to constantly release new changes over time.

What are we going to change? We’ve carefully considered your feedback and have set our priorities so far towards a few important things.

THE PRIORITY SYSTEM
No more priority for small teams and no asynchronous rounds. At the moment players do not get a lot of benefits for killing an enemy character. On the other hand, the smaller team gets an advantage. We will change this.



NEW RULES FOR THE DECK
Cards should be used as an additional measure, not to take the whole turn. At the moment you can significantly impact the fight and completely change the course of an entire battle with your deck but the most powerful cards are available only in late rounds while the others are too weak to waste your turn on them.

NEW AND REWORKED MECHANICS
We are not satisfied with some of the existing mechanics. For example, stun can be really disappointing at the end of the round, special abilities shouldn’t require health unless it is appropriate—for berserk class, for example. On the other hand, we want to add more possibilities to impact the fight.



Of course, we are going to make even more changes over time. We intend to improve overall combat’s dynamic, add new combat modes, improve clans and UI, balance and loot. And we crave to hear your opinions about it. We’ve managed to build a small but dedicated community with Redemption’s multiplayer and would be very grateful for your feedback and ideas.

So, join us in Ash of Gods: Arena discussions and Discord channel to share your thoughts, wishlist the game and follow us on Steam to stay tuned.

Welcome to Ash of Gods: Arena!

It is nice to have you on board whether you are a die hard fan of the original Ash of Gods: Redemption game or new to Ash of Gods series.

What is Ash of Gods: Arena? It’s an online RPG which combines turn-based tactical combat and elements of a card collectibles game. Arena is based on multiplayer mode from the original award-winning game, Ash of Gods: Redemption.

So, what can you expect and how it is different from the original?
