- Patch 1.0.4 - Improvements - 11 May 2025
A few glaring issues I missed a while back, like trees disappearing when chopping them down and underwater screen fx have been fixed up. I only found out about these issues when I came across a recent youtube video covering our game. Embarrassing on my part to say the least, I rushed out fixes without thorough testing that ended up causing more issues. I apologise for letting these issues slip through.
- Patch 1.0.3 - Japanese Localisation + Improvements - 3 March 2025
Hello everyone! I've made some improvements as well as introduce Japanese localisation for the game's interface. Some of the improvements include lowering the weapon sway for better aiming down sight, more rocks in the spawn area to help players get started, fixed an issue with player cosmetics not letting the game start properly. Please let me know of any further issues or things you would like to see improved. Thank you!

Hey everyone, welcome to all our new players that have come in over the past few days! Just wanted to give a quick response to the feedback around optimisation we've seen in our recent steam reviews.

- FURTIVE Leaves Early Access - 10 February 2025
We've just released a final update fixing a few last remaining issues and making a couple of improvements. There is also partial controller support available. As mentioned before, we made the decision to move forward with a new project rather than continue new content for FURTIVE due to a multitude of reasons. We're happy to have rounded out the last few issues, take the early access label off, drop the game price as we move into a new era for our studio. We're getting closer to announcing our next project that we've been working on for some time, a new kind of survival game, we're extremely looking forward to bringing it to your attention soon. Please follow our social media pages or subscribe to our newsletter at https://frozenbulletgames.com to receive the announcement when its ready. Thank you FURTIVE players, we'll see you in our next game soon!
- Dev Update - June 12th - 12 June 2024
Hey everyone, Dev Update! Just a little update about the next update. Since releasing Call To Arms Part I, we've had to scale back our efforts to take a small break for ourselves and we've had time to reconsider how we will be approaching our future plans. First, we're going to be pushing back the content we were planning to release this month to a later point for now, but we're doing this to ensure we're delivering a satisfying content update that comes with as little issues as possible, and so that we have time to improve other areas that need attention as well. So you can expect the features we had planned and more for the next content update. Before then, we want to prioritise controller support and localisation so we can broaden our player base and bring more players into our community in time for the next content update. We believe bringing full controller support can come with ma…

- Weapon Attachments & New Locations - 9 May 2024
Another look into our upcoming 'CALL TO ARMS' content update. Here's your first look at weapon attachments, through the new Workbench you will be able to equip different sights, silencers and more to your firearms for certain tactical advantages. Another improvement also being made to firearms is we've taken out the walking animation while aiming down sights to keep the weapon steady, we're also lowering the FOV while aiming which will significantly improve the ADS experience when using the firearms. In case you missed our last couple of posts, the new workbench as seen above will be replacing the current workbench. It will replace the crafting UI with a new one that is more similar to the inventory's crafting UI. It will also feature 2 other pages in the UI for setting weapon attachments and repairing damaged tools. We're adding more improvements and locations to the map. The new updat…
- First Look Into CALL TO ARMS - 2 May 2024
Here's a peak into the CALL TO ARMS update! We've heard a lot of people getting their HV-1 stuck too often, so today we present a new modification to the vehicle. The winch! Hook it up to a nearby tree and wind yourself in to get the vehicle unstuck. I'd also like to show improvements made to the weapon UI that shows the ammunition type for the currently held firearm and melee weapon/tool degradation health status. We're also bringing 60 new steam achievements with this update, here's a little peak into my folder with some of the artworks. We've got heaps more to show off soon as we get closer to the release of this update, at the moment we're aiming for the end of the month to have it out.
