As many of you may already know. Last night our dev team was finally able to recover HGA from the grips of that evil b*tch Irma. Through a series of near tragic events we almost lost everything. When hurricane Irma hit landfall in Florida our server hosting company was breached by flooding bringing down the facility hosting several critical pieces of our core infrastructure to its knees. Our backups that were stored at this facility were all damaged. At first we weren't that concerned because all of our backups were hosted at a server in Montreal as well which we assumed were in good working condition and would just need to be restored. Sadly that couldn't of been further from the truth. Our Montreal backups were all nixed due to a Linux bug and all of our backups were just a bunch of a empty archives and they've been arriving like that for months. |
Hello everyone, |
This is a public service announcement regarding our server issues since Hurricane Irma. Unfortunately some of our server infrastructure was in the direct path of Hurricane Irma and we are now in the process of hurrying to resolve the issues that we've been experiencing since the Hurricane struck. Some of our game server and master server infrastructure was impacted by the Hurricane and it needs to be migrated away from the compromised data facilities on the east coast in North America. This situation impacts all of our web services and we are in the process of migrating to a local facility where our dev studio is located here in Canada. We'd like to take this time to thank everyone for their patience and while we take our issues seriously we want to remind everyone that this situation is nothing compared to the situation that the Hurricane victims in Florida, Texas, and the Caribbean are facing today. If you have a few spare dollars please donate to any of the Hurricane response funds to help people in need. |

Influencer ColeusRattus has published a new review of Heavy Gear Assault today. This new review looks at the current version of HGA since its latest patch on the weekend as compared to when we launched on Steam in December when he was quite critical of the first release here on Steam. While still not entirely happy Coleus notes the game has much improved in our 9 consecutive patches since hitting Steam. |

Hey Gearheads, |
Join us tonight (2017-04-27) at 6PM CST for a Twitch stream by https://www.twitch.tv/mohotashi |
This weeks update brings with it a long awaited upgrade to our ONNet system. And for those of you that don’t know, the ONNet is the Gear’s Optical Neural Network, or on board computer which now communicates gameplay related information to the player via the Audio Warning System (AWS). The ONNet is that lone voice in your ear that informs you when things are about to get hot. When you hear that sexy AI voice you better react.

The long awaited 'Heavies’ have finally arrived. The Southern Spitting Cobra and its Northern counterpart, the Grizzly fill the fire support role in their respective Polar armies. To support the additional weight of the bulky armour and weaponry needed to accomplish their intended purpose, they both feature a tracked secondary movement system.

With this week's patch, bots will now automatically populate servers. They will attempt to keep matches balanced in terms of player count and will fight against and along side each other and real players! We will be continuing to update the AI including adding the ability for bots to participate in objective based game types. We are happy to bring a new weapon to light with this update - the Light Flamer! Enjoy this toasty new patch - on us.

Based on the feedback from some of our competitive players, we have introduced a hitmarker around the reticle that animates on confirmed hits. Pioneer Outpost got redesigned - slopes are more accessible and there are roads connecting major points of interest. Official servers will feature both maps on rotation. Equipment in the Gear Bay marked as “coming soon” is under active development.
