Hi, Raiders and Antagonists!

We run our Killfest special event last weekend, calling all Raiders of the Broken Planet to action to check who was the deadliest character in the game. We promised to grant a new Character Card to the three Raiders who scored most kills during the weekend, but it was such a close call that we ended up giving away four Character Cards!

Even though Hans was not among the top 4 Characters during the Killfest weekend, he performed really well providing close air support to his teammates. We have learned a lot about this well-liked character this week, with the reveal of his interactive comic and the latest #DevShout video, where our Gameplay Programmer Dani explains the best configurations for the deadliest chef in the galaxy.

See you on the Broken Planet, Raiders.

The Broken Planet's bravest chef!

Hans was a ranking Hades Division officer, with a passion for cooking, but he fell from grace during a decisive battle and decided to join the Raiders. As part of the Raiders, he soars the battlefields with his jetpack providing close support to his teammates, and keeps them well fed with his culinary skills when off-duty! Want to know the whole story?

Hi guys!

Thank you very much! This is always useful for newcomers to understand the characters and the lore around them

Hi VengefulCheezit,

We really appreciate your suggestions, but you have to understand we are an independent studio and, even having a budget, the options in advertising are limited without a publisher.

The most immediate changes we are making are related to the reward system and they are based on your feedback and the most adressed issues. You can read it here: http://www.raidersofthebrokenplanet.com/news/reward-system-hot-fix-update

Hi guys,

We understand it's been a few days without being able to connect to the server and some of you missed the Killfest event because of this problem. Our QA Team is working to provide a solution as soon as posible but it's taking some time because it's an intermitent issue, difficult to track down.

Once we find a solution, we'll let you know through our social media and the forum.

Thank you very much for your patience,

Karen

Hi, Nordwest_89!

As Argentil commented before, we have a support email for this kind of issues: raiders_support@mercurysteam.com.

Please, describe us your problem and tell us your username/ platform so we can investigate it along with our QA Team.

Thank you!

Ginebra, the graceful and deadly Fifth Council huntress, is now available for all Alien Myths campaign owners.

Ginebra is as a force to be reckoned with, armed with the Sturzenegger Bogen C-A00 crossbow and wearing her armour-plated “Sabretooth” Model Chassis. When adopting her apex predator form, Ginebra’s speed is dramatically increased, allowing her to run up walls and evading even the peskiest Antagonists -or to chase down the Raiders to the last man by the Uras-Beherit mandate!

The following changes, fixes and upgrades have been applied to Raiders of the Broken Planet’s Patch 1.04:


-The tutorial is no longer mandatory and can now be skipped.

-New menu options appear after playing the tutorial, offering the player to choose between

 “Solo” or “Co-op” matches.

-The “Prologue” mission has been renamed “Eternal Soldier” Campaign.

-Several reported bugs have been fixed.

-Stability improvement for a better gaming experience have been implemented.

With the full cast of Raiders available for the Alien Myths Campaign, we have put our focus on balancing and stabilizing mission difficulty.
