While we’re preparing the next major update to Flash Point, releasing later this week, all indications are that we’re set for a early 2018 release. Lets dive into some details. The backers and play testers have been playing the Family ruleset for some time now. As fun as this basic ruleset is, Flash Point really comes to life when you dive into the Advanced rules. Fans of the board game are itching to get their hands on it and put their tactics to the test. The good news is that if all goes to plan we should have the last remaining elements of the Advanced rules in place. All the Specialists, Vehicles, Hazmats even the insidious hotspots will be ready for the first round of testing and feedback. The advance features use the same established methods we’ve introduced in the UI update of the Family rules so hopefully it would be easy enough to pickup as you play. Please do let us know your thoughts here in the community hub or on Discord. While first impressions are very useful when trying to streamline the interface for people new to the game, don’t forget that we would also like to hear about any improvements we can make for the veteran players. With all the game elements in place we will be shifting our focus to the online multiplayer functionality as we build toward release. We’ve been working with the Fig team to try narrow down the final release date and will announce the date as soon as we have confirmation on it. Until then we will keep posting updates while our backers help play test. Be sure to add it to the wishlist to keep up to date with the announcements. It is still possible to get involved with the development by backing the project through Fig. Hope you can join us ;)
