Balance Tweaks

As you'll see below, we've introduced a set of balance changes. Why? Overall, we believe the game is already in a solid and fairly balanced state, but over time, we've identified a few inconsistencies that felt important to address. Some of these are adjustments we've been wanting to make for a long time, and the re-release has given us the opportunity to finally act on them. Our goal remains the same: to provide the best possible experience, both in terms of technical stability and faction balance. The changes below are made with that in mind. That said, we want to be clear: we are not looking to fundamentally change the game. These are targeted adjustments, not a wholesale balance overhaul. We'll continue to monitor things closely and may introduce further small tweaks in future updates, based on what we observe, and of course, your feedback. Feel free to share your thoughts on the Steam Forums, Reddit page, or our Discord server, where a dedicated feedback channel is available. We read it all.

Hello R.U.S.E. commanders, It’s so good to be back! First and foremost, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you. The enthusiasm and passion that you have shown for the re-release of R.U.S.E. has been overwhelming. From the whole Eugen Systems team: thank you! Whether you are a veteran of many past R.U.S.E. battles, or a new commander itching to explore a new way of strategy (and deceit), we bid you welcome! Since the re-release, we have identified several issues and bugs and other niggles. Read on to see the coming improvements to R.U.S.E. the Eugen team is planning to release soon.

Improvements Incoming

We haven’t sat idle after R.U.S.E.’s launch. Shortly after the re-release, we deployed a hotfix to address some of the most critical issues. Having said that, we continue to monitor your and the community’s feedback closely. The following is a list of things that have come to our attention:

• Multiplayer Desyncs: Some players are experiencing synchronization problems during multiplayer, causing matches to fall out of sync between clients.
• Various crashes: A number of crashes have come to our attention across different set-ups, configurations, and in-game states. We are working on and fixing them.
• Steam achievements not triggering: Some Steam achievements are not unlocking correctly, even when players have met the required conditions. Unacceptable!
• Linux Launch Issues: Players on Linux are experiencing issues that prevent the game from launching properly.
• Login screen bug (compatibility branch): Users running the compatibility branch for the original version of R.U.S.E. encounter a broken login screen that prevents access.

All the above issues and bugs are being worked on as we speak. We hope to roll out an update in the not-too-distant future (no date yet confirmed). And as a last note: we are fully committed to supporting R.U.S.E.’s second life on Steam in the long run, delivering the best possible experience to new and veteran players alike. Keep the feedback and bug reports coming!

Until Next Time

This patch includes some important fixes:

Code fixes

• DLCs are now properly unlocked for everyone. All content is available, including Operations, maps, and the Japanese faction
• Saves and replays created before the re-release are no longer shown in-game to prevent crashes. If you want to load them, use the compatibility branch in R.U.S.E. Steam options: Properties > Betas > Compat branch
• Xbox button no longer appear when using the Steam overlay on PC
• Fix for the Gamepad option, which is now properly enabled by default on Steam Deck

R.U.S.E., the ultimate strategic experience, has returned to Steam (PC, Steam Deck) with its relaunch today. At Eugen Systems, we are thrilled to bring R.U.S.E. to a new generation of players and welcome back old veterans of our evergreen popular World War II RTS. To this day, it holds a unique position in the genre for favoring deception, strategy, and tactical wit. 

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/1206618/6a2bf328029558478e476d608d81eb00ad38e98d.gif

While we developed and launched R.U.S.E. in 2010, the game didn’t officially belong to us. Sidelined due to distribution constraints, we could do nothing in the subsequent years to help the players who contacted us for assistance or tried to obtain the game. Recently, we received the opportunity to return R.U.S.E. to our catalog. This allowed us to re-release this pillar of the RTS genre, with some added extras!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/1206618/c0ceea31866f21b9cd48ae121ff89ee1be6e3512.png

Players who previously purchased R.U.S.E. on Steam before it was delisted will keep full access to the title, including all technical updates and all DLCs at no additional cost.

We are also proud to confirm that R.U.S.E. is now fully compatible with Steam Deck. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/1206618/3b3d988f6aa04e59bffb6e6b353e9e7c2449fe07.gif

As a reminder, R.U.S.E. in a few words:

• Play Anywhere + All DLCs included: this version is fully compatible with the Steam Deck and includes all DLCs released to date for free.
• Strategy Over Speed: Forget "click-racing." Success in R.U.S.E. comes from strategy, initiative, unit mastery, and a general’s ability to bluff and deceive their opponents.
• Complete RTS Gameplay: Experience classic RTS mechanics, including resource management, base building, tech trees, and unit production.
• WWII Authenticity: Command the major powers to battle - USA, Germany, UK, France, Italy, USSR, and Japan. Each faction features historically accurate equipment and late-war prototypes.
• Epic Campaign: Fight through the iconic operations of WWII in a riveting single-player story campaign, from the deserts of North Africa to the heart of the Third Reich.
• Diverse Game Modes: A mode for every playstyle, from Ranked matches, co-op, Free-for-All, or skirmishes against AI.
• Strategic Challenges: A player’s wits are tested in 30 "Challenge" missions - unique tactical puzzles designed to push a general’s thinking to the limit.

Hi everyone, A new patch is about to be released today to fix the various issues listed below: - Frequent desync issues - Ranked games stuck at 4/2 players - Invite button missing in 4 players maps - Kick of player at timeouts when accessing the VAC checking servers We hope this update will satisfy most of you and will let you enjoy the multiplayer. Once again, a big Thank you to you all for your patience and your support! Wuzzi www.twittter.com/UbiLeak

Hey folks, It’s been a long, hard and awaited update, but we’re glad to announce that we just released our anti-cheat patch! As mentioned before, this patch include the following: - No more region lock applied to the multiplayer matchmaking - VAC (Valve Anti-Cheat System) activation, including in-game kick plus ban from official servers for players identified as cheaters - Several measures and tweaks to combat cheating If you want to know more about the VAC, here are the headlines: the Valve Anti-Cheat system is enabled for servers displaying the Secured shield logo. If a user connects to a VAC-Secured server from a computer with identifiable cheats installed, the VAC system will ban the user from playing on VAC-Secured servers in the future. Also please note that “all VAC bans are permanent - Valve has a zero-tolerance policy for cheating and will not lift VAC bans under any circumstances,” decision that we fully support. At the same time we want to thanks all the players who sent their replay to the team, to fight against the cheaters. This is actually a big win for the team to have such as dedicated and fair-play community of players (especially for a game based on the deception, and basically cheating J) Thumbs up everyone for your support, your patience, and we hope you will enjoy the multiplayer again! Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

Hi everyone, Here are some more details about the fixes brought by the upcoming patch: - No more region lock applied to the multiplayer matchmaking - VAC (Valve Anti-Cheat System) activation including in-game kick plus ban from official servers for players identified as cheaters - Several measures and tweaks to combat cheating We know cheating can ruin the multiplayer experience, so we truly hope that these actions will bring back a healthy and fun spirit to the R.U.S.E. community. Thanks for reading Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

By the way Steam users, Changing your region is recommended to ease the matchmaking in multiplayer. In the Steam/Settings, go to the "Download + Cloud" tab, and change it to Germany-Berlin. Sorry about that, we're working on fixing the issue, but that would ease the process until the corrective update is available. thanks Wuzzi

The R.U.S.E. demo is now available on PC, which you can download on Steam at http://www.steamgames.com/RUSEdemo. The demo features a full mission in which you play a role in the Allied offensive in Italy, aimed at cutting off a German offensive from withdrawing by attacking them from behind. However, high command suddenly realizes that the Germans, aided by the remaining loyal Italian units, are much stronger than they had previously been led to believe. You will lead the US army fighting against Germany and Italy, and must combine deceptive strategies and eventually resort to nuclear strikes to achieve victory! Thanks

Hey everyone, Here's an important news for you. Please note that when R.U.S.E. is released in September, it will benefit from Valve’s Steamworks API to offer the best community experience to players. Consequently, a Steam account and Internet connection will be required to activate the game, as per Steam policy. For this reason, R.U.S.E. will not use the Ubisoft protection. Single player can be played offline. Thanks for reading, R.U.S.E. team Follow the team on Twitter at twitter.com/UbiLeak

Hey guys, Here's a note from R.U.S.E.'s producer Mathieu Girard. Thank you all for joining the party, and all the supportive messages ! Stay tuned Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak ----------------------------------------------------------- Hi everyone, I hope you enjoyed the free week end of RUSE. It was another great opportunity for us to share thoughts and even to defeat some of you Smile I like to think that this game was built with the community. Even though this was not a beta test, your help was invaluable to help us track some remaining issues. We will take your last suggestions into consideration of course. There was a minor glitch with the game being shut down for some time during the week end. We will see how we can make it up for you in the future. It is now time for us to get back to work for the final release. Come visit us at Gamescom in Cologne, there are many more surprises to come! Best, Mathieu Girard Senior Producer Ubisoft Entertainment

Hi everyone, It seems the autokick fixes performed yesterday were not sufficient, although improving the situation. Thanks to tests performed today between Eugen and a member of the community, LoverBoy, we managed to track down a serious bug in the autokick system. A patch will be available very soon, fixing as well some very rare crashes found during the week end. Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

Hi everyone, You'll be happy to know that a patch will be deployed at 6:30 PM (Paris time). The patch addresses the following issues: * Autokick system. We have authorized higher latencies for the system, reducing the problems which were affecting the 3V3 and 4V4 games (1V1 or 2V2 did not seem problematic, but the patch will fix them anyway). We have used network simulation tools to fake bad connections (this is a network RUSE), and the game persisted. Of course, we will listen to your feedback * Graphical corruption for 6XXX/7XXX Nvidia cards. We hope to have solved the issue. Waiting for your feedback. Cheers Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

R.U.S.E. is now available again on Steam. Sorry for the issue everyone. As a compensation, we'll extend the Free Multiplayer Week-end until Wednesday! Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

Following the Public Beta, a few months ago, we received tons of feedback from beta-testers. It’s been a huge satisfaction for us to know that many of you enjoyed the game basics and balance as well as the introduction of innovative features such as the zoom ability and the deception cards. Yet, it was also a big challenge because of the amount of requests and suggestions the team received. Thus, back in April, we took the hard but necessary decision to postpone the game to September in order to treat this worthy feedback and try to make the game meets the highest expectations of the R.U.S.E. supportive fan base. Well… it’s been a while since then, and we’re now pleased to present you most of the final changes brought to the game in this video broadcast, featuring Mathieu Girard and Alexis Le Dressay, Senior Producer and Creative Director of the game. (The video is long – it explains what we’ve been working on during the past months – but you can directly jump to the part that interests you the most by using the buttons at the end of the introduction.) WATCH THE VIDEO BROADCAST If that wasn’t enough, we’re absolutely thrilled to let you guys know that you’ll be able to try these improvements during a 5 days Free Multiplayer Weekend starting July, 15th on Steam! You will be able to pre-download the game as soon as today, and more information will come regarding the content and game modes available, so keep an eye on my twitter (@UbiLeak) to get the info as soon as it pops out. Thanks for your support and enjoy the game! Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

R.U.S.E. features multiple ways to select units. Nonetheless, during the beta, some players were unsatisfied and we have been aiming to improve.

The classical way to select multiple units is to do a rectangle selection. A lot of players complained about the difficulty they had with it in R.U.S.E.: it was sometimes very laggy depending on what was displayed on the screen and would drop the frame rate. This has been fixed and now drawing the rectangle is just as smooth as moving the mouse cursor. Moreover, the selection is now done when the button is released, there is no need to click a second time. We have also tweaked the way R.U.S.E. filters the groups of units inside the rectangle.

Furthermore, a unique feature in R.U.S.E. is the possibility to select very quickly a group of units within an area. The player simply needs to zoom out and select a pile of chips. During the beta, it could be difficult to pick up one specific unit within a group, so we've moved the unit icons to the bottom center of the screen and scaled them up.

Finally, the SHIFT + click combo was impractical to use. It was impossible for example to deselect a unit and sometimes very buggy. This has been fixed as well.

Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

Unit pathfinding in the beta was sometimes inconsistent when moving a group of units comprised of towed units and Tanks. In some cases, a move order could lead to Tanks moving in a straight line while the towed units used the roads to go faster. Now the whole group will use the same path and move at the same speed in order to preserve its cohesion.

We have also improved the formations. They were too loose and looking like column formations rather lines. Now they look much more aggressive!

Additionally, a lot of you asked for the ability to set up waypoints. The SHIFT + click command to queue up orders was present in the beta, but it was buggy and impractical. This has been fully fixed.

Finally, we've been asked to improve the overall pathfinding, particularly to avoid bottlenecks when crossing bridges or inside cities. We've been dedicated to fixing all the problems the players reported and we believe the system is now completely reliable.

Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

Sometimes in the beta, units would simply not comply with orders. This bug was occurring when selecting a composite group of units and giving them an order that some of its members could not perform. For example, you would select a group made of Tank Destroyers and Tanks and order them to attack infantry. In the beta, the Tank Destroyers would stay in position while the rest of the group would move, because Tank Destroyers are not equipped to attack infantry. We've added specific behaviors for composite groups in order to prevent this. Now the Tank Destroyers would follow the rest of the group when it attacked the enemy infantry. Another issue in the beta was the behavior of towed units. Infantry, for example, would take a very long time to move back inside a truck when they were attacked (almost 15 seconds in some cases), leading to many players complaining that their infantrymen were running on the spot. We fixed this: now units are able to climb back into their trucks after only one second, making the overall movement of towed units much smoother. We will show the improvements made soon in video. Stay tuned guys ! Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak

Many of you reported that it was tricky to select and control units in the game. As a result, we tried to rethink the whole control scheme, and we indeed found many bugs and awkward behaviors. Let us explain what we've improved to bring you an unprecedented comfort in selection and units control.

The default RUSE select and order combo uses only the left click (left click to select a unit and left click to order the unit to move/attack/capture etc...). Alternatively you can choose another mode where the right click will allow you to issue orders. We believe the left click option is better because it better fits RUSE philosophy. It is all about analysis, decision and action vs. clikcing fast and micro-management. So let's see what we've improved with the left click option.

Previously when you selected a unit or a stack of units and were moving it around, the "ghosts" were stacking on other units, causing distubing visual feedback. Adding to this, when you wanted to issue an order to your selected unit(s), you could accidentaly left click and select another unit. We fixed that and it just feels much more natural, comfortable and powerful!

We have also improved the right click button mode behavior, so that there is now a general rule that selects with left click, and assigns an order or validates a construction with a right click. With this new setting, when you move a ghost unit to select a destination, you can easily choose between selecting another unit (left click) or stack them (right click).

Note that these improvements will also be helpful to anyone wanting to use the SHIFT combo.

Hey everyone! Here's a note from R.U.S.E. producer at your attention. Something's in the air..! Wuzzi twitter.com/UbiLeak "Hi all, It has been some time since you last heard from us, and I know that must have worried you. Don't worry, we are still alive Smile The reason for this silence, is that we have been working... a lot! You have no idea how complex it is to make a video game these days. But I guess what matters to you is that you will get a kick *** game, and that is what we have been working on. Of course, it took some time to take into account what you reported in the previous beta tests, and we will develop that with all the details very soon, although you had some sneak peeks during our latest live chat. I want to start with some great news. In a matter of days, I will announce a big surprise, a special treat for all our fans. Stay tuned!" Cheers, Mathieu Girard Senior Producer
