Totally Accurate Battlegrounds

Hello gang! In case you were wondering about the patch, it was a small but important security update related to our game engine.

We also know the shop has been breaking on and off throughout the last couple of months, we've been looking into it but are still not sure why it keeps breaking.

**Cheers, **

The TABG team

**Hello everyone! We're happy to announce that anyone who wants to can now host their own community server! **

We apologize for the delay and thank everyone for their patience, we also want to thank the community members who helped us out with the beta testing.

The guide on how to host your server can be found here: https://landfall.se/tabg-dedicated-server-guide In the guide you can also find the list of words allowed for the Server names - you can also request to add words through Git.

We're excited to see what you all host and make!

**Hello everyone! **As you may know the community servers have been tested over the last couple of weeks on the beta branch, but we need more testers so we have decided to push it to the main branch.

Everything is like the former build only now you have a handy "Server List" where you can find custom servers!

It's still a work in progress but we hope you enjoy the community's creations :)

Hello everyone! As you have noticed the servers have been all kinds of borked since we came back, and we're doing our best to fix them.

We're also working to fix the reporting feature as it won't show up for certain players. If you do have access to it and encounter cheaters we would love it if you report them, so that we can take action.

In the meantime, solos and now squads will be available!

We will continue to work on the servers to get them back to normal, thank you for your patience!

EDIT: There is currently an issue with servers but solos seem to be working so please enjoy that while we work on fixing things. Sorry to disappoint, we will try our hardest to sort this as soon as we are able.

Aaand we’re back!

Hello everyone, the TABG servers are now back online!

We’ve rewritten the network architecture which should help with the previous issues, we’re also utilizing more of EAC:s features for (hopefully) more safety.

The report function has been re-implemented so that you can report cheaters in-game again.

We’ve also decided to completely remove the leaderboards based on feedback from the community, as well as to make win-farming less of an incentive to cheat.

As for community servers, they’re still in the works! But need some more testing before we roll them out, more news about that is coming soon.

We know this rollout may not be perfect so let us know if you're experiencing server issues and report them to support@landfall.se

We’re hoping these changes will help with the issues the game has been having this summer, and we’re excited to start playing again with you all!

Hello everyone! As we talked about last week in this (https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/823130/view/3647400837487438446?l=english), the game has recently been plagued by hacker and DDoS issues. Today we’ve made the hard decision to **temporarily **shut down the TABG servers while we work on the issues.

This won’t really change much from the current state of the game, as no one can play even when the servers are up due to the attacks and hackers.

While the servers are taking a break, we will continue to work on implementing community servers and possible solutions for the DDOS issues. This isn’t a measure we take lightly.

Thank you all for your patience as we deal with this, we hope to have the servers up again sometime next month (August).

We will see you then,

Hello everyone! We just updated the game with a new anti-cheat, hopefully, it works well - otherwise, let us know!

Late last year we were informed that EQU8 would now be exclusive to Splitgate and that they would shut down support for other games in February of 2023. We’ve been working to get an alternative up and running since.

This patch also fixed one of the notorious dupe glitches! Thank you to the community members that helped us crack that one, we really appreciate you. 💗

Patch Notes:

• Added new anti-cheat

• Fixed dupe glitch

News

As we talked about in this post )no devs are actively working on TABG anymore due to the game not being able to support its own costs. We still intend on keeping the servers up and running for as long as possible.

**However we have also figured out a way to set up community-run servers! **

Initially, we didn’t think this would be possible but in the work with the work we’ve done to change the anti-cheat, we figured out a way to do it.

This means that the more tech-savvy players will have the opportunity to set up their own servers to run TABG, we hope to get it up and running in the next coming weeks. We will keep you posted on when that update will go live!

**And as always remember to restart steam and verify the integrity of the game files. **

A small patch to hopefully reduce the memory usage to help run the game better with low amounts of ram.

Testing out this solution to see if it solves the recent performance issues.

Hello everyone! Thank you for your patience.

We are aware that there are more bugs than the ones solved in this patch, especially concerning desync issues and we thank you all for reporting them. Unfortunately, they are products of the game's networking code and would require an entire rework of the game. For now, such a big undertaking is unlikely to happen.

We have also seen the requests to add the Brawl mode that was worked on in the early betas and announced by us as a F2P feature. We hoped that the F2P launch would bring in enough players to support another mode, as it has not done so, we have decided not to go forward with it. We are sorry to say that there are no current plans to add Brawl to TABG unless something significant changes.

We want to be as transparent as possible about what to expect going forward and will keep you posted about TABG's future. We are sorry that we haven't been able to set expectations correctly in the past, we will do better.

PATCH NOTES:

-  Nerfed Jarl Axe damage with 30%, now takes 2 hits to kill a standard health player.

-  Inflatable hammer readded into the item spawn pool.

-  Fixed issue where some items were missing for players who bought the Battle Pass.

-  Fixed a bug where changing the keybinding for playing the catchphrase didn't actually change it.

-  Some Anti-cheat fixes.

As per usual remember to restart steam and verify the integrity of the game files.

Thank you for your patience, duos are now back in TABG!

Heads up that you may experience longer wait times in all modes due to this change.

**We currently don't have any more information about future updates, we will discuss them in the next coming weeks as development is starting back up again after the dev teams break. We're also waiting on a bigger anti-cheat update from EQU8 addressing the current issues and reports. **

Make sure to restart steam and verify the integrity of the game files.

Small TABG Hotfix #3

• Fixed bug where catch phrase volume was not affected by the master volume setting.

• Fixed bug where you would get XP even if you left a game.

Small TABG Hotfix #2

• Fixed bug where running close to the wall would randomly disconnect you.

• Fixed bug where players could inject rich text tags on the leaderboard.

Duos is currently disabled until the we get a bit more active players to sustain 3 game modes per region.

Small TABG Hotfix.

• FIxed Area 64 missing colliders and grenades going through walls

• Fixed player level actually using the new XP curve.

• Made so you can close the reporting option in the result screen.

If you are missing any items from the battle pass, make sure to restart your game. Sometimes they don't show up until restart.

The new update is out! Today’s update includes some well-awaited features like the results screen, reporting system, and balance! We're also adding a Battle Pass and some nice map changes.

Battle Pass

We’re trying out a Battle Pass due to popular demand.

The Battle Pass comes with free and premium rewards. You level up the Battle Pass by playing and unlocking rewards along the way.

In total there are 60 levels to keep you occupied for a while! We’re adding some new cool cosmetics, MC rewards, and a bunch of new G-mode music!

**The premium tier is 6$, if you want to participate without premium items it’s free. **

Area 64

Area 64 has been completely reworked and is looking better than ever.

Result screen and leaderboards

We have added a result screen after each match as well as leaderboards, you can now see how you compare to other players and who you’ve killed and who killed you. Changes to the leveling system We have changed the way leveling works by adjusting the XP curve to be fairer for high-level players.

We're also removing the MC gain from leveling since the Battle Pass free tier now gets you MC from just playing the game.

A reporting system

This update also adds a reporting system. You can report players in the pre-game from the escape menu OR through the new result screen. We hope this will catch cheaters that manage to get through the anti-cheat.

As for more fun updates to the game, we're currently working on a big update we hope to release as soon as it's finished! :)

Make sure you restart steam, verify the integrity of the game files and make sure to have the game and EQU8 exempt from your anti-virus.

The store is live! You can now get clothes by using "Money Coins" or "MC" for short in the shop.

MC can be bought in-game using Steam wallet money OR be earned by leveling up!

You gain 25 MC per level (and we're giving everyone MC for past levels, so if you have played before this update you'll most likely have some MC to spend already).

The store will feature new items every week and there is also a daily store that will display 10 random items.

This patch also introduces a new menu for equipping clothes and coloring them to easily be able to view and search your items.

This update should also fix the bug where some users lost their founders' pack items.

• Added blessing of cardio.

• Added blessing of pull.

• Added blessing of airstrike

Remember to restart steam and verify the integrity of the game files in order to get the update.

We just put out a small fix to hopefully fix the cosmetic glitch - please let us know if you have been given back your founders pack and if you have any cosmetics.

**If you don't have your Founders cosmetics back after this patch or any cosmetics at all, we hope to solve it before the Store update coming soon! **

Hello everyone!

**A fix just went live that potentially solves the bug where some people have no cosmetics at all - we can't have naked people in the game - scandalous! We also fixed the bug where you wouldn't get a blessing after clearing level 3 in limbo.

We're still looking into the other issues that are reported and hope to have fixes soon!**

Please restart steam and verify the integrity of the game files!
