We’re setting up a community council, made up of beta participants of all playstyles from casual to highly competitive players, who we’ll be working especially closely with. You’ll still launch Crucible through Steam (you don’t even need a new download), you’ll keep all the progress and customization items you’ve already earned, and the battle pass, reward tracks, and in-game store will continue to be supported. The game will be accessible 24/7 so you can continue to self-organize matches with other players-we recommend joining our Discord server to find players to queue against. One of the biggest changes you’ll see is that we’re going to schedule dedicated time each week when we as devs will be playing with the community and soliciting feedback.

We’ll continue following the roadmap we laid out previously and working on map, combat, and system changes to improve the Heart of the Hives experience as well as implementing other improvements based on your feedback and what we think the game needs in order to thrive.įor the most part, your experience as a Crucible player will stay pretty much the same while we’re in beta. Starting tomorrow, Crucible is moving to closed beta.

That plan is still the same, but we’re taking a new step that will help us focus on providing the best possible experience for our players as we continue to make the game better.

Colin Johanson, AAA, issued the following statement earlier today.Ī few weeks ago, I told you about the steps we were taking to change and improve Crucible in response to your feedback. As of today, the game is moving back to a closed beta state. Seeing that, the development team is doing something that’s nearly unheard of in the industry they are pulling a game back from full release. Released on May 20th, Crucible released to a meager audience that has since disappeared almost entirely. However, despite releasing some smaller titles it was Crucible that was marketed as their first, major AAA title.
