What's next?



Hey guys,
Today we want to give you a short summary what we did in the last weeks and what we plan to do in the near future. From the very beginning we had a strong focus on listening to your feedback and implementing the changes you want to see in the game.

Among many other things we…

•… removed the ability to gain an unfair advantage by spending money
•… refunded the money you spent in the shop
•… rebalanced weapon damage
•… removed the FPS cap
•… fixed a variety of issues that prevented people from playing the game
•… improved login rewards
•… added new maps
•… increased match durations
•… improved the game performance and our servers.

But don’t worry, we do not plan to stop and relax now! We will continue to listen to you and we already have a few things we are working on right now!

This weekend, you will be able to get a free Guitar to add to your melee combat arsenal. Nothing compares to the special kind of music of your enemies being crushed by a guitar!

But of course free items are not enough! In addition to several other upcoming changes, we will…

•… allow players to decide if they want to join raid matches or not
•… include new game modes to the rotation
•… add additional languages to the game
•… increase the speed of the client
•… reduce respawn timers to make sure you spend your time fighting rather than being dead

The change you wanted is not mentioned here? Don’t panic, these are just the changes that are coming very soon! There is more to come and we will continue to keep you updated about the changes we are working on.

There is just one thing we ask of you in return: Continue to provide us with feedback and let us know about your suggestions and wishes for the game!

Your RockShot Team!

Shoot and share!



We all know these moments: the perfect sniper hit over an insane distance, the last-second-multi-kill-victory, the melee fight you won with only 1 HP left on your health bar… but the problem is: “Pics or it didn’t happen!”- nobody is going to believe you if you do not post it on the community hub!

It's really easy: Push F12 for a screenshot or F11 to record a video. Then share them on the community hub. There you might even find gems like this video of our player “Knife™” – enjoy the sick movement and melee combat all over the place. Thanks for sharing, Knife™!

This is not a drill!

Okay, in fact: It is a drill. But now as we have your attention, you should watch this awesome tutorial video about the drill matches.
If you start a team raid and there is no game available to participate at the moment, you will be dropped into the drill mode, competing in classic game modes like Team Deathmatch or Free For All.
Furthermore you’ll learn in this video how to equip gear and how to add friends to a party. Oh, and also you’ll see some sweet explosions and gore – enjoy!

This is a game changer! #1

We listened to your feedback and implemented some substantial changes to make RockShot more fair and balanced:

One of the most important comments was that spending money in the shop provides players with an unfair advantage by granting them access to more powerful weapons. You did not like that, so we changed it!
For now you will not be able to buy weapons for Gold. Instead, you can now only purchase weapons for Dollen, the ingame currency you earn by playing. Yes, this includes the Gachas that contain weapons!

Unfortunately, due to technical reasons we have to revert the recent changes to the length of drill matches – it’s back to 5 Minutes again. But as usual: We’re working on it, it will be fixed soon!

To implement these changes we'll run a maintenance on our servers at 12:30 PM (CEST). Server and game services will not be available for 1h and 30min.
We’ll let you know when the servers are back online as soon as possible.

Have fun!

Special maintenance 13.06.2018

Due to unexpected issues with our servers we need to run a special maintenance right now. We expect the servers to be down for 1h and 30m.
For more information, check out our official board:

https://forum.rockshot.gameforge.com/forum/thread/137-special-maintenance-13-06-2018/

Strategy and Explosions: The Raid Mode



It’s not the first time you click-shoot your way through hordes of heavily armed soldiers, right? So your mission in the raid mode should be clear: Kill all your enemies. Or blow them up.

It is as simple as it sounds: Join one of two opposing teams, raid their base and defend your own.

Exterminate your opponents so often that their score hits zero or find their base and place a timed bomb. And then give them a warm reception in your own beautifully customized home base – welcome to the bullet storm fortress!

Locate. Raid. Defend. Repeat.

Improving game and service (plus a gift for you)!



Hey guys,

the first week of RockShot lays behind us and it was a hell of a ride! It began with some tough luck: Server crashes on the first day resulted in a bad user experience and corresponding reviews. We just started in the Early Access phase, so improving RockShot is an ongoing process and we are committed to do so.

We are really grateful for the amount of feedback you provided us with, we are listening to all of you and we want to strongly highlight how important your feedback is for us.

In the last patch note you may have noticed that most of the changes came from what we gathered up from Steam and our Board. These changes are just a first step, as we are working on a whole set of future features, fixes and balancements. We want to be as transparent as possible with you, so please stay tuned, as we will share our next steps and things we are currently working on over the course of the next days.

Additionally, we are looking at improving the current queueing times in match making.

As thanksgiving for your effort on sharing with us your opinion and suggestions we decided to deliver a little gift to all of you:

- 3x Red Dragon Gacha Tickets
- 3x Army Ninja Gacha Tickets
- 3x Chimera Gacha Tickets

Please note that you'll receive the item automatically as soon as you login. We wish you the best of luck with the Gachas
