- Burstfire will be relaunched! - 21 December 2015
Dear players, UPDATE: We're checking with Steam right now regarding refund issues, thank you for your patience. All of us at Nacho games and Free Reign Entertainment are proud about the Burstfire game. We feel that we’ve been able to achieve a lot in a short time. Burstfire was fun for us during both our internal tests and Open Alpha Summer 2015. Unfortunately the game in it's current state did not get popular enough for us to provide quality updates for it. To put it simply – the game just doesn’t have enough players to be fun – you may notice when playing that it’s difficult to find players to join a full game session. We think that by continuing to sell game right now we’re providing a disservice to our players that buy the game and expect an active player base. To make sure that players are not getting a bad experience, we’ve decided to halt the sale of the game. We are going back t…

- First In-Game Sneak Peak - Art Gallery!!!! - 12 August 2015
Welcome to a sneak peek at Burstfire's third map "Gallery"! This map will be quite unique from our two previous maps, sporting large open areas, and rooms, with less tight alleyways and corners, and some unique vertical vantage points from the roofs of the gallery! The defending Mercenary group must set up defenses in key locations inside of the Gallery, defending the objective intel while the Attacking SWAT must breach through their defensive positions and take back what is theirs. The map will feature some very unique art styles and introduce some new styles of gameplay, so I'm very excited to announce that the map will be available shortly after our initial release! We hope you like the shots and we look forward to hearing what you think! As always hit us up here or @ [email protected] if you have any problems! Thanks all!

- A look at Burstfire, a hardcore tactical FPS made by four people - 11 August 2015
TRIGGERNOMETRY We write about FPSes each week in Triggernometry , a mixture of tips, esports, and a celebration of virtual marksmanship. It s a myth that multiplayer FPSes are only something that massive studios can cook up. Stuff like Overwatch and Battlefront will draw the biggest audiences, but there are plenty of interesting FPSes in development by scrappy teams. Reflex and Toxikk are ambitious stabs at retro arena FPS. Insurgency s co-op AI hunt is delightfully low-key. Ratz Instagib is a railgun ballet made by one guy, and the more medium-sized MechWarrior Online continues to chug along. Even the team at Valve for CS:GO, currently the biggest FPS on PC, is rumored to be quite small. Add to this pile Burstfire , a five-on-five tactical FPS that snuck onto Steam last week. Burstfire is the work of four Adhesive Games refugees, the creators of mech FPS Hawken , which itself famously…

- Hotfix: Squads Timing out when disconnecting from server. - 7 August 2015
We fixed an issue with squad hanging / breaking when disconnecting from the server. You should now always go back into your squad after a match has ended. This patch will be coming online momentarily, so expect a small server outage while we update STEAM.
