Hotfix 7/12/2015 v0.5.23987
Hi all,

We pushed a Hotfix yesterday to address a few pain points we are seeing.

-Renamed volume settings in option menu to more clear
-Dialog Volume setting is now for character and announcer VO
-Fix VoiceChat Option so that lowering this to 0 will mute all player voice chat.
-Add server memory logging to help diagnose memory leaks (servers running for long periods with memory leaks are likely to cause cases of extreme lag)

When you log back in make sure your Build Number in the lower right of the Main menu reads: v0.5.23987 If it doesn't then force update the game in your Steam Library.

Check out this blog post to learn more about the classes in the game, customization, and the development process.

Early Access will be available July 9th!
Welcome back Zerkers. As you may have noticed, we’ve been a bit quiet these last few months. It’s not without good reason. We are very pleased to announce that Bierzerkers will be available on Steam Early Access July 9th! Additionally, we have put together a trailer to help spread the word and give folks a glimpse of what Bierzerkers is all about. Give it a look and let us know what you think.

In the weeks leading up to the Early Access launch we will be inviting back some of our Alpha testers to get some early feedback and help us test out a few systems. Our hope is to have a clean Early Access launch and the Alpha tests will help us achieve that goal.

Additionally, we have added a lot of content and polished lots of systems since March. This includes classes, abilities, maps, modes, and lots polish and new art. In the upcoming weeks we’ll be talking about all of those things right here, so stay tuned and thanks for checking us out!
