Ragecraft IV Update: Beta, Baby!
Added 2023-10-15 20:25:07 +0000 UTCIt's finally time. The closed Beta phase has started today!
Big "Thank you!" to the 8 Beta testers, some of which are here on Patreon.
I expect the Beta to take 1-2 months, unless there are MAJOR issues with certain areas that require me to scrap and rebuild whole sections of the map.
I will post another update in a few weeks when there is more clarity on the amount of work that the map still needs.

It's not like loot has exactly been hard to come by in your previous maps. Unless a multiplayer group is just running in and dying as fast as they can walk back from spawn I don't see how they'll not have enough unless you're changing the way you do loot. If rc4 follows the trend (and I hope it does because I'm a collector) I'll have about 300 extra swords in chests by the end of it since I feel compelled to collect and catalog everything interesting.

2023-11-18 09:34:57 +0000 UTCInteresting suggestion, and I did think about a separate multiplayer version in the past, but I'm still not sure if this is necessary. In general, playing with more people has upsides (more players is an advantage in itself) and downsides (loot has to be distributed among more players), and sometimes these cancel each other out. If that is the case for RC4, I won't need separate versions. I will have to wait for the final feedback from the multiplayer group that is beta-testing the map before making a decision on this :-)
