Patch 1.0.0.2
Hello Survivors,
This is the 2nd big patch to broken betrayal, with this update comes some changes. We have listened to the community, and yes maybe we did make it way to hard for players to get started as they spent more time looking for items to get started with. So in this update comes starting items for all players.
Clothes
Flashlight
Water Bottle
Crafting is much easier and cost much less. We have also started on customizable weapons, the first is the C7 Assault rifle. This high powered rifle comes with a starting IRS Sight that can be changed for a looted or crafted Reddot sight for that all more weapon accuracy.
Also in the works is the LS80 Rifle.
We are working hard on the map as many of you will see buildings empty of props. There is a reason for this as the buildings are not here to stay. They are temp why our 3D Artists have it in there pipelines.
The whole map is still very much being worked on from start to finish by our own level designer. Its taken over 3 months just to texture the landscape, roads, trees and foliage.
The world is about 10K big with only 6K playable area at this time, We have in the works military outposts that will be filled with AI and loots to loot. Even those hard to find rare items.
The quarry above took over a month to build and you can find stone and iron here and maybe to the west in the hills you will find deer to hunt.
Dedicated servers are still being worked on. We have a issue of Steam API not listing dedicated servers for some reason, however this is not effecting client hosted servers. We will release windows and Linux server files once we have the beta servers fully working with the steam API.
We hope this update fits well with the players of Broken Betrayal. We will see you in game.

Closed Alpha Now Live!
Closed Alpha general information
Hi all,
So the long wait is here, live testing of the Closed Alpha, which means a closed (private) test with a growing number of users outside the development team.
While everyone is excited for Closed Alpha, for us developers it's an important tool to make the game better and prepare for the eventual Early Access release. During Closed Alpha the game will break often and many features are missing or not fully functional - the game is not yet ready for the majority of gamers to join in. That's why we're doing a Closed Alpha instead of e.g. an Open Alpha or launching straight to Early Access.
For most gamers, we would recommend wishlisting Broken Betrayal on Steam:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1725560/Broken_Betrayal/
This way you will get notified when the game enters Early Access, and it's a more polished experience than currently in Closed Alpha. Development will continue in Early Access with frequent updates. For more information on Early Access, check out Early Access.
That said, if you're interested in Closed Alpha, then read more below, sign up, and keep your fingers crossed or become active in the community! Please note that Closed Alpha players will eventually have to buy the Early Access version, and the Closed Alpha will be closed as the game moves to Early Access. We will also wipe the servers before EA launch, although we will do our best to keep e.g. Broken Betrayal blueprints - but most personal wealth will be gone in the transition, so everybody starts on a more or less equal footing in Early Access.
About invites
Invite priorities
We have many ways to invite users:
- Loyalty users; players signed up on the list; first come, first served
- Random or "lottery" users; random picks from the signup list
- Criteria-based users; we may sometimes need users with e.g. certain hardware or other criteria (this doesn't happen often but we have the option)
- Handpicked Discord community users; active and friendly members of the community or members who have contributed in some other way
- Larger groups.
Access to the game may also be granted to our business partners, press, streamers and other special cases. Our invite process in general is not a scientific process and we do not guarantee any fairness - we'll do our best but at the end of the day it is our right to invite people in the way we want. Everybody will be able to buy the game at Early Access launch.
Asking or begging for access
Please do not beg for access in the Discord. Begging is not cool and excessive nagging will decrease your chances of getting picked. We suggest spending the effort on being interested in the game and talking about it instead, as being active in the Discord will increase your chances of being handpicked instead of relying purely on the random chance (or signup order) of Closed Alpha signup. Please do not ping admins, devs, mods or anybody else for access to Closed Alpha, it will not be granted and will decrease your chances of getting invited.
How to know if you've been selected
We will send an Alpha invitation by email to the address provided in the signup form. The email will come from a alphaonegames.co.uk email domain, and in Gmail it may often go to the Promotions tab or even Spam. If your email is missing or bounces, we will try to contact you via Discord as a secondary method. In addition, on Discord we will add the "Game Tester" role to your Discord (if known) along with the "New in CA" role, which we will ping in the #alpha-new-players channel. We will also say in #chat when a new invite wave has been sent.
How will the Early Access launch go?
Our goal is to release a smooth experience for Early Access, but some features will still be missing at that time. We have very ambitious plans for Broken Betrayal and that vision takes time to fulfill, and while we are getting closer with Closed Alpha, the full vision will be unleashed in Early Access and beyond.
The purpose for Closed Alpha is to make sure we don't run blind into Early Access. In CA the game is still buggy and messy in terms of both technical and gameplay features, and once we reach a bit more stable status and have more features, then the game is ready for Early Access.
In our opinion Broken Betrayal Closed Alpha shows a "glimpse of the vision", allows CA players to imagine what Broken Betrayal can be. Early Access will make that more real.
I have more questions!
Please join the Broken Betrayal Discord to ask questions!
Information for Closed Alpha players
Please be in discord!
No vids or screenshots of the game.
So with all that said, i look forward to seeing you all in discord!
Alpha Info
Once closed alpha has took place we will then open closed beta for 2 weeks and in this time more feedback will be collected so we can get ready for early access release. Number of clients to take part is 150. So again make sure you are apart of the official community group.
Id also like to take this time and thank all who have took part so far and all those who are awaiting the release of Broken Betrayal. These are exciting times for us here and we can't wait for the release of Broken Betrayal.
Best regards
@AlphaOne Development Team
