@Haegemon: We don't know yet exactly how obtaining PS4 keys is gonna work. But it seems very unlikely that we'll be able to provide PS4 keys to our backers unfortunately. We'll keep you posted if that changes.
@Philip Mars: We don't have specific plans for the Mac port yet. Our focus is on the PC version right now.
@Brian Watzig: The PS4 version came as a surprise for us, but we were always hoping to make our way to consoles at some point, in no specific order. We promised the OUYA version and we'll deliver it!
@Jordan Louis: Game development planning is a difficult art to master. We've been working on Mercenary Kings for about a year now, and we are a bit late on our schedule. However, we are working very hard to release Mercenary Kings as soon as possible, with the highest possible level of quality. Don't worry, we're still strict on our planning, and news about the release date will be coming soon.
Creator Jordan Louis on June 12
Hey there. It's June, and I must be missing something because we were promised a release date in May. Wouldn't mind a solid timeline on when the PC version is going to be available for download.
I understand development takes time and hard work, and I think that your game looks pretty damned awesome. I hope you don't mind my enthusiasm to get my WASD on with some Mercenary Kings.
Creator Brian Watzig on June 12
oh drat and here I thought it would be out on the OYUA before the PS4 (since OUYA is already out), I invested because it was coming out on the OUYA.
Creator Philip Mars on June 11
Will there be a PS4 version even before the Mac version of the game?
Creator Kory Calvert on June 11
Looking forward to PS4 release as well happy you guys made it on
Creator Will on June 11
Looking forward to PS4 release!
Creator Octavio Arango on June 10
Hey, congrats on appearing on the Sony presentation!
Creator MJTH on June 10
Congratulation, for getting on to the PS4 dudes! Hopefully it gets on other console too at a later date like Wii U...
Creator Haegemon on June 10
will any of our pledges include the PS4 version? just saw announce, do want..
Creator Tribute Games on June 10
@Haegemon: Fortunately, you won't have to wait too long to get the game on Early Access, and it'll feature a lot more missions! We're not ready to add more content right now. However, the beta version will be updated with online play after E3.
@Tazi: Obviously, we're late on our schedule. Moving our studio and going to E3 cost us a few weeks.
@Brian Watzig: Awesome, glad you like Wizorb on OUYA!
Creator Brian Watzig on June 8
I'm LOVING WIZORB on the OUYA, thanks for a free copy.
Creator Tazi on June 8
"but we'll announce it in May for sure." - so what's the release date? :)
Creator Haegemon on June 3
Can we get like a few more missions...
Not like every rank, just a few more...
You can't just give out free crack and then turn around and say "well the rest of the batch isn't gonna be ready for a while, so just keep jonsing/scratching your arms for a bit"
.
So... Can we get a few more missions? Just a single rank up, maybe some more guns, a cat-tank boss, anything...
Creator Tribute Games on May 17
@Ben Reichelt: Thanks! Glad you like it ^_^
Creator Ben Reichelt on May 16
I have been playing the demo and I gotta say, this is probably the most fun I have ever had with this genre! You guys nailed the crafting and I gotta say play as Empress is incredibly fun;)
Creator MJTH on May 2
Having just received an email about having my name in the credits, this must be a good sign that things are (whilst definitely not finished) are at least on track for a May/ June Beta or release. Keep up the good work! We all know you will make a great game at the end of this! :D
Creator Mohammad on April 25
@Tribute Games
from what we have seen so far the game looks promising... please do not let us down
wish you best of luck with the new studio and the game release
Creator Tribute Games on April 23
@Mohammad: Oh and for the release date of the actual finished game (or our first milestone at least), it's still a tad too early, but we'll announce it in May for sure.
Creator Tribute Games on April 23
@Mohammad: Almost! We'll announce the date of the beta next week. We just need to review everything first so that we don't announce a bogus date. And because of some major renovations in our building (like destroying our walls), we have to move our studio to a new location by the end of the week! So, we'll post about that too.
Creator Mohammad on April 23
@Tribute Games
aren't we there yet ??!! :P
any expectation on delivery date ? can't wait to put my hands on this game
Creator Tribute Games on April 18
@phillip auge @João Carlos Bastos @Mike Rentas We're working on preparing the closed beta version right now. We're aiming at mid-May, so in about a month you guys (and all 80$+ tier backers) should have access to a version of the game. We'll post an update as soon as we know the exact date + what will be the exact content of this version.
Creator Mike Rentas on April 18
Another "GIMME THE DEMO" request here :) Played the build you guys had at PAX East and loved it, I'd love to get my hands on it to show friends. Barring that, I'll reiterate Phillip's question - any idea when the closed beta will begin?
Creator João Carlos Bastos on April 14
Is there any chance you could let us play, for example, the demo you had at PAX, while we wait for the final game?
It would be great for those unable to attend such conventions/shows, especially those like me who are located outside of the USA, to get the chance to play Mercenary Kings. :)
Creator phillip auge on April 8
Any idea when the beta will be taking place?
Creator Sebastian Donnerstag on April 8
Awesome, one more reason to look forward to my Ouya :-)
Creator Tribute Games on March 28
@Brian Yup! Already up! http://t.co/uzgj4dNHvf
Creator Brian Watzig on March 28
regarding wizorb for OUYA, is it already for the OUYA? like when I get my OUYA in a few days since i was a backer there also, will it be available then?
Creator Dablue on March 28
*two paws up*
Creator Dablue on March 25
so... Pax is about to be done.. update?
Creator will on March 19
So is beta testing going to happen soon? Like the beginning of April
Creator Alex Charb on March 4
Lâchez pas les gars. Le demo au IGDA montreal était malade!
Creator Dablue on March 4
@Tribute: oh i got personel for that.. come on kids.. dads going to pay you 5 cents per hour to press F5
Creator Tribute Games on March 2
@Jordan Thompson: You're absolutely right, updates shouldn't derail our deadline. However, with PAX East coming in a few weeks, it definitely gets buried under a bunch of other tasks. We didn't forget though, we'll have an update ready next week. In the meantime, I can tell you that the game is progressing well and is getting better everyday. We finished implementing most knives of the game today, and it looks pretty cool ^_^.
@Dablue: You can start pressing F5 from Monday :P
Creator Dablue on March 1
chop chop. .. an update would be appreciated friends
Creator Jordan Thompson on February 28
An update doesn't take very long and shouldn't derail your game deadline, please don't use this as excuse.
Creator Ben Allen! on February 15
So do you guys still think the game will be ready for May?
Creator Dablue on January 18
Cool war photos Tribute ;)
Creator Mohammad on January 18
@Tribute Games
I was kidding :D
please please please guys
we need frequent updates
Creator Tribute Games on January 15
@Mohammad of course it is! We're still on track and working very hard. More info coming very soon!
Creator Mohammad on January 14
this project is still on right ?
Creator Dablue on January 8
Ill be pressing F-5 untill then. (Hope my insurance covers a strained finger .....)
Creator Tribute Games on January 7
Sorry guys for the lack of updates! We're focusing on making the game right now, but we should have a substantial update in February, and possibly a tiny one sooner.
Creator Dablue on January 7
Yeah, its awfully quiet on the update front =(
Creator Tazi on January 6
sooo... any news? :)
Creator Tribute Games on November 23, 2012
Merci pour les encouragements!
Creator Zambie Kupos on November 22, 2012
Premier commantaire ici, je crois que sa vaut la peine de dire bonne chance a une coupe de gars d'ici ! Vraiment interressé par le style visuel du jeu ainsi que votre petit system de crafting. Bon travail et bonne chance pour le développement !
Creator Nick M on November 17, 2012
Nice! Looking forward to seeing what you folks have been cooking these past few months :D
Creator Dablue on November 17, 2012
so.... MIGS is done... any news to report?
Creator Dablue on November 12, 2012
When is this MIGS? also when can we expect a few sneak peaks off this build in an update? I am sure alot of people, me included, would love a sneak peak .
Creator Ben Allen! on October 21, 2012
Can't wait for the game and I'm having lots of fun with wizorb in the meantime!
