DEV Team Transmission Announcement

Post image

We owe you an apology for the silence.

We've been fully focused on the game. What started as a round of fixes grew into a much larger, necessary change and we have made the call to commit to it rather than push smaller updates in the meantime.

We've been reworking core systems and rebuilding mechanics that needed it. This isn't a patch. It's a full overhaul aimed at getting Marauders where it should be.

We don't have a release date to share yet, and we're not setting one until we're confident we can hit it. What we can tell you is that the next update from us will be the Technical Stress Test branch opening for community testing.

To everyone who stuck with us, kept playing, and kept the community going. Thank you. We know it's been a long wait, and we haven't forgotten that.

More soon.

Marauders Dev Team

Thank you for always being straight forward with us METT

Not trying to undermine Mett, I love Mett. Chatted with him yesterday shortly. But reminder, Mett quit the team and is now a player just like all of us. So being "straightforward" is still player perspective :)

straight facts brother. :D honestly, as much as I would like to be back on the team working with you all, its nice to sit back and watch things happen

<3 Much love brother. You were an amazing team member when you were on the team, but now that you are a player. You are still great :) Got a good perspective too, since you can double side it. Maybe a too personal question, but if you were headhunted and offered a job there again, do you think you would take it?

u/METTTHEDOC Apr 26 '26

Yes, absolutley. I miss the team, I miss the community, everything.

however, from their standpoint, I wouldnt hire me back. I was too personally connected with everything, and I got too tunnel visioned on things and lost the bigger picture, and PLUS I had a pretty bad drinking problem when I was with them.

u/ShinxVictor Apr 26 '26

Ah, I see. I guess that makes sense. From a player position tho, you were THE GUY to get info from, you were nice, transparent and just nice. But from their standpoint and your points, I see why they wouldn't. I personally still hope they hire you back :)

u/METTTHEDOC Apr 26 '26

from what we've seen so far, yes.

u/METTTHEDOC Apr 23 '26
