Door Kickers: Action Squad news & patch notes

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/30444167/ddce7ed2370c852c71c513c7e6eadbeff0b9f4ea.png Effective immediately, the Off Duty Guy is part of your trooper roster, and you've got a new mission ahead of you - Chapter 7 - The Slums. It won't be easy and it won't be simple, its one of the toughest areas you've ever seen. But you've got the gear to take you through hell, or at least whatever you could find in your old duty bag. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/30444167/07cc2b7ee9aee423d1da445f3e71a971c454d221.png Hold on, there's more. More gear for each of your old friends, and a special new bad guy waiting to kick you back to the precinct from whence you came. Oh, did we say one? There's also a new zombie waiting for those inclined to take trips on the dark side. PSA - Since this is a Major Update, you may want to disable all mods if you're getting crashes or weird symptoms in the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/30444167/3fba657ee46237c5db280c43bdb38248be63d6d7.png Enough waiting, let's play now. Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard, laughing in

The day you've been waiting for is coming. Next week, Action Squad releases on consoles - XBox One and PS4 on the 24th, Nintendo Switch on the 28th. https://youtu.be/9tDfQ4SQrGI The exact same experience you love on the PC translates to the new platforms, but there's also new content included, and it's coming back to PC on the exact same day:

• one new playable character
• 12 new playable levels
• couple of new enemies
• lots of goodies even for the old gang of troopers
• more fun than you thought you'd get this year

See below for the changelist. However, if we stay silent for a while, it's because we want to keep ourselves completely focused on... *drumroll* exciting new add-on with lots of content! *drumroll again* releasing the game on consoles! *drumroll again again* new games maybe! We can't tell you yet exactly what new content and what consoles since that would spoil the surprise, but trust us with your patience and we will deliver! Changelist v1.1.4 ----------------------------- - Fixed not showing level reached in Coop Infinite Mode - Added/changed/improved sounds - Various other small fixes and improvements to user experience

https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/cae2a56ff425ef856299c52e8b4c522a14cf6328.png Happy New Year, folks! We've had a bit of fun with our families over the winter break, but now we're back - and here's your weekly challenge, as well as some fixes and new sounds. To highlight a specific issue fixed, you should be able to run Vsync OFF with no more trouble. Happy Hunting out there! Your Team @ KHG / PixelShard https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/7485d1598d12a288d89dec15a8bd8647b84e6f26.png

https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/ec78a244f1cbe7db202b22770f3082a09af45c7a.png It's Christmas! It's a time for love and giving, so give them hell in the Newly inaugurated Infinity Tower. What goes on in there, anyway? Nobody knows! How tall is it? It's still mystery ... The real question is How high can YOU go? Quick points: - This is a one-way raid and there's no return. The only way is UP. - You're cutoff from supplies so enemy kills don't give Strategic Points. - Every five floors there should be a bunch of hostages to rescue. Higher up they become scarcer so spend those points wisely. - We've also revamped the lighting system and its much more natural now. - Door Kickers 2 is still in development. Let us know how you liked this little surprise, and whether we should add more stuff to it, or maybe we should instead concentrate on more zombie stuff ... errr ... I mean handcrafted missions. Merry Christmas - and a Happy New Year! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/68f9cf56b4f5b57a17c2fe086f53e21b3fad600d.gif Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard

Yesterday's update adds a bit of "behind the scenes" changes to the game and allows you to create, upload or enjoy mods of all types, not just levels as we've had until now. For example, here's a mod that changes the in-game HUD character portraits: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1570225144 https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/dd5c11c04ae072c58601108380123aa01db4e3a0.png And here's a little mod by sneaky Red Panda that just removes the star costs for all weapons and equipment in the game: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1570656046 And here's the beginning of something interesting - Mario meets Action Squad! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1571075007 You can do lots of cool stuff! Would you like to know more? We have this handy workshop guide for you, right over here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1569771035 So, get reading, have fun modding, share with the world and ask around for advice :) Your dev team, always here.

https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/d2958eb3b8b4298cc0e239508c4f3eaf1a60213c.jpg And now for your regular Weekly News! Even though we released the workshop and you should definitely check out the levels over there, we haven't forgotten the weekly challenge - and now you have it! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/9c24d29cd23226d435af5048205a58f1465b0e6c.png This time, it's Fergie that's on call. Post your Winning Screen with the medal, and the fastest time wins an extra DKAS key :) Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard

G'day you Action-hungry folk! The Steam Workshop is ready and the Mission Editor is up in official manner. We even put one Showcase Level up in the Workshop, so head over there and download it quickly, before supplies run out. (I kid, I kid). Shortcut this way: https://steamcommunity.com/app/686200/workshop/ https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/29ee82665449e6f7f1d0bfb63850fdf735f65c50.png The Workshop supports game levels, which you can subscribe to and will promptly appear in your in-game Workshop menu to enable/disable at will. And then you will find them in the Workshop Chapter at the end of the "Chapter Selection Screen" and you can play them at will. The Workshop also supports game changing mods. Head over here for more info on this topic: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1569771035 As for the Level Editor, it's well hidden in your Steam Install folder, specifically in this location: SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Door Kickers Action Squad\tools\ActionSquadEd.exe The Editor loads by default a handy "almost empty new level" that should give you a headstart for your designs. The whole tool is a little light on documentation but we'll provide more in the following weeks - though it's not rocket science, in any case. Just study or modify the existing game levels :) https://youtu.be/bQRQksOjJtk Once you're happy with your work, there's a handy "Workshop Mod Uploader" button in its menu, and you can share your creation with the world. Have fun, be creative, and expect a "Best Level" Contest soon :) Your friends @ KHG/Pixelshard

Action Squad Weekly News! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/9c24d29cd23226d435af5048205a58f1465b0e6c.png Still no workshop release today (let's just say the authorities delayed us a bit with some routine but unplanned paperwork) but your challenge for week 5 is now up! We still have a contest but the rules are now different. Post your Winning Screen with both medals, and the top 3 fastest times win extra DKAS keys :) Good luck - you might need it! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/4a2eda2ae3d0e066a91c64008182e8d3833f4b7f.jpg Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard

Immediate Action Alert! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/9c24d29cd23226d435af5048205a58f1465b0e6c.png Your challenge for week 4 is now live! As usual, the first person to comment with a link to their screenshot of the end screen with both medals gets an extra DKAS key to share with a friend :) This should even work in coop, if one of you chooses Shield, it should count for both. But it's a tough one ... as always ^^ https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/832166dccb3c50faf80c88912788f44e6ac182c0.png Next week, workshop update - this time for real! Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard

https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/e0c4712be131fbf6d079ab6fb43f7cf9f92cec9f.png Gang, you know us... we're KillHouse Games. We're always dead serious (apart from small innocent April's Fools jokes). Our first game is used by the military to train, right? We don't do .... zombies. But Action Squad is our crazy child, and we can't really control what it does. So this week, it stumbled into the Nowhere City cemetery, and this happened: https://youtu.be/wrRM3nkVnpY So, what's in our treat bag this Halloween: - 4 zombie style enemies added. Or were they 5? 6? Be careful, reports are still garbled. - Weekly challenge #3 is your special Halloween Level, and its a tough one. - or you can go in "Zombie Invasion Mode" and enjoy the entire game, all levels, with extra zombie sauce. Beware, results are completely unpredictable. - Or you can just ignore the whole thing, play the zombie-free Classic Mode and shake your fist at the screen for lack of a proper "ultra realistic Week 3 Challenge". https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/7396f1d35db8bb16a2a261d8dcc1491d8ee4ec11.gif There's Dark Portals spawning around the world, you need to get there and close them down. Stop reading, start playing. Let us know how you liked this little surprise, and whether we should add more stuff to it, or maybe it should be thrown into the pit and set on fire. Speaking of which, yes, do use fire against zombies. Also, post (link) your Weekly Challenge 3 Winning screenshots in the comments below. The first players to post their Single Player / Coop screens win extra Action Squad keys, and eternal fame. Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard P.S. Just in case anyone's wondering, Door Kickers 2 is still in production.

Calling all Action Squaddies! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/9c24d29cd23226d435af5048205a58f1465b0e6c.png Your challenge for this week is now live! And the first person to post a screenshot of the end screen with both medals gets an extra DKAS key to share with a friend :) https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/416856ebecffb11d8f054a00e8fda488823b3d03.png We're a bit behind schedule on the workshop implementation, as there were some unforeseen extra bits to put into place. Should come as soon as possible, but for now you can download the level editor from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fn13oz51l19aner/action_squad_editor.zip?dl=0 Have fun, create levels, crash everything :) Next week, surprise update content and pumpkin pie! Your devs @ KHG and PixelShard

Action Squad Assemble! Today's update brings the first in a long series of Weekly Challenges. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/9c24d29cd23226d435af5048205a58f1465b0e6c.png Each week we'll release one such mission, which you can play as a regular misison and just complete, or also try to win the "challenge medals" by completing whatever special requirements are there. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/574c1ffa4bd1fceea91db563ff14116677d8eb83.png For this week's mission, the medal requirement is to win it under 3 minutes. Don't worry, it can be done and it has been done ^^. Next week, Level Editor and Steam Workshop ;) Your faithful devs @ KHG and PixelShard

We just added Chinese, Japanese and Korean translations to the game. Oh and Brazilian-Portuguese too, while we're at it :) https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/6c3e8984c6e30ac01e814f1f5bfe289cc58a72b0.png As always, we've worked with highly experienced professional translators AND tested the translations in the most efficient way (let's just say that random Chinese mom #3 at the kids playground was very enthusiastic and supportive). But in the off-chance there's still bugs in the translations, please report them in the relevant thread: https://steamcommunity.com/app/686200/discussions/0/3317353727679489174/ In other news, we fixed that annoying issue with the Online COOP lag. It should be smooth as a Breacher run through a hostage room! Full list of changes found here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/686200/discussions/0/1735465524721046833/

You know the drill - get your pixelated Mp5s and workout those boots - Action Squad is now out of Early Access! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEo-J4eA9WU We’ve had a successful run of 10 months in Steam Early Access and more than 18k of you have already kicked doors with us, and we couldn’t have done it without you. For all you who supported us and put up with our development issues and bugs - Thank You! When launching the new version, the game will ask to reset your profile. Please, please please, listen to that advice and start from scratch again. The game changed a lot and its worth it to take it slowly again - and it also prevents unforeseen profile corruption and conflicts. Hundreds of you have already shown us how much you like the game - through emails, messages, forum posts, reviews or even the good old face to face nod at PAX and Gamescom. And there’s nothing quite like the smile and thumbs-up you get from a stranger after playing your game. But development doesn’t stop here, so neither should your feedback stop. Tell us what you like. What you don’t. What you want more of. And expect more to come. More missions. More game modes. Mission Editor. Workshop Support. More mission types. More playable characters. And, of course, more, more crazyness. Also released is the stellar soundtrack by Gavin Harrison. If you like your synthwave as much as we do, get the soundtrack too! Enough talking, get kicking - there's a cartel that needs to be put down. Your DevTeams @ KillHouse Games & PixelShard Labs

Mark your calendars and check your wishlists for September 10! https://youtu.be/nwdEQsE7oIY

We're sorry to report the delay of the January patch. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/3ccc56056112c6aced08e087fcdce2c8b4703b79.jpg There were parts of the code that needed to be rewritten and reorganized to account for the additions and changes to the breacher code - shotgun functionality, including the often requested slug shot change. This has proven trickier than expected but will allow us some cool tricks and also make adding more weapons - by devs or modders - much easier in the future. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/30444167/7db1d76614796c237229261e8ae42bc0d18a630a.jpg But this also means the changes are too deep to launch a partial update - we discussed getting just the new levels and achievements out for now.
