• John Wick Hex & Hardened Tactician Bundle Now Available - 11 December 2020

  Attention Agents! John Wick Hex is now available for experienced strategists looking for a unique new challenge. The game is a fast-paced, action-oriented strategy game that makes you think and strike like John Wick, the professional hitman of the critically acclaimed film franchise. Featuring a unique blend of strategic momentum-based combat, John Wick Hex captures the feel of the unique tactical combat from the films and blurs the line between the strategy and action video game genres. Perform well and progress in the main story mode (which features an original story created for the game) to unlock new weapons, suit options and locations. Each weapon changes up the tactics you’ll use and the manner in which you’ll play. Ammo is finite and realistically simulated, so time your reloads and make the most of weapons you scavenge on the job. Those interested can now pick-up John Wick Hex w…

• Phantom Doctrine, the Cold War spy strategy game, is getting mod support - 1 September 2018

  Cold War turn-based strategy game Phantom Doctrine (think XCOM with rougher edges) is getting mod support, developer CreativeForge Games has announced.  Here's hoping that modders can fix some of its major flaws. As Evan said in his review , Phantom Doctrine is occasionally brilliant, but mostly boring because both its enemies and heroes are too simple. Its combat is unbalanced, too: melee takedowns are a one-hit kill, and if you choose the right perks you can basically make your character invisible. Thankfully, these are just the kind of things that mods can address. What if, as Evan suggests, you could spec your agents via a skill tree? That would make them feel more unique, and would give you incentive to stick with agents you picked up early on, rather than just switch to the more powerful agents that the game constantly serves up. While the missions feel fresh for the fir…

• Phantom Doctrine Patch 1.0.5 + Dev Stream - 29 August 2018

  https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F30417757%2Faee129fb507722355dc5d841e5cc0b1f282e2c68.png Greetings, Agents! We're reporting back to let you know that Patch 1.0.5 will be deployed by the end of the day (CEST). It's been another busy week for us, but we're extremely happy with all the feedback you've been sharing and your ongoing support. Patch 1.0.5 details This patch brings important progression-related fixes, changes to the Actor Perk, AI, XP gains, and many more. Improvements: the Actor perk decreases the range of recognition while in disguise (before: could never be revealed with said perk) the Agent Overview window (before: Background) in the Crew Quarters facility now displays all abilities, including passive ones improved generation of Hideout Candidate locations (prevents a selection of only the most expensive options, possibly leading to a bakrupt…

• Phantom Doctrine Patch 1.0.4 + Dev Stream - 23 August 2018

  https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F30417757%2Ffee5d14f63e5c59f90457b775fdbc262d62e7acf.png Greetings, Agents! A lot has happened since the launch of Phantom Doctrine last week, but one important thing can, and definitely should be said - we wouldn't have made it without your endless support, trust and positivity! For that, the entire CreativeForge Team wants to wholeheartedly thank you! You're incredible! :) Patch 1.0.4 deployed! We believe that with Patch 1.0.4, the significant majority of LoS/LoF, animation and combat system issues should now be solved. If necessary, we will keep further tweaking it to provide you with the best possible experience. Major improvements: weapon ranges and viewing distances rebalanced new visualizations for characters leaning out of full cover (increasing visibility for the full cover sidesteps) improved AI behaviors revealin…

• Phantom Doctrine Patch 1.0.3 deployed! - 20 August 2018

  https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F30417757%2Fc1c7507467f785ac61c904321e1ae63ddc44b602.png Greetings, Agents! As we're continuing our efforts to introduce all the necessary changes and fixes, we are now ready to deploy Patch 1.0.3. The most important change is that enemies no longer take player's free sidesteps into account (player characters no longer have an 'extended hitbox' in LOF calculations). That should eliminate a huge majority of the instances where enemies would appear to be shooting through obstacles. We're working on more tweaks to the entire system and we're aiming for Wednesday with an expanded patch that includes further improvements, animation changes and more enhancements to the LOS/LOF. Full patch notes: enemies no longer take player controlled agents' free side-steps (should eliminate a vast majority of enemies appearing to shoot through…
