- Patch v1.03 - Usability Fixes - 18 January 2018
Hey Everyone! I'm pushing out an update a bit sooner than I thought I would be as I came across a rather large issue that needed correcting. So along with that fix the following has also been added/changed/fixed: -Can no longer attempt to join a game on a different region through steam (would end up blocking you from doing anything) -Errors in joining through steam/match browser should no longer get stuck and display clearly what the issue was -Customization should no longer rotate when clicking on menu buttons -Map display in the lobby has been updated to now correctly indicate the full map name -Added a 1440p resolution -Fixed an issue where a game could be started with insufficient players, which would result in the game being "stuck" More to come over the next few weeks I hope! -Sam

- Official Discord Servers! - 17 December 2017
Hey everyone! I've just created some discord servers for people to chat with each other/the developers! Since we're a new release, new players may trickle in slow, meaning there might not always be games available to play, so if you join the discord you might have a higher chance of finding someone who wants to play a game. Thanks to myboosto for the idea! Australia: https://discord.gg/pWegy2Q EU: https://discord.gg/d7uq8Ex USA: https://discord.gg/wMc2csZ

- Omega Extinction OUT NOW! (Plus some potential FAQs) - 16 December 2017
Hey Everyone! As you may know now we have just officially released Omega Extinction on steam! Very exciting times for us! Due to the worldwide reach of steam however and the fact that we are a 2-person development team, there may be a case where if anything is going wrong we’ll be asleep or unavailable, so I thought I’d take the time to write some common fixes for problems and general info for you in case we’re unreachable. Q: I can’t login, it keeps failing to connect! A: Try opening the ports found here: https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/realtime/current/reference/tcp-and-udp-port-numbers If that doesn’t work, try restarting steam or waiting 15 minutes before connecting again. If the problem persists, take a screenshot of the error message and email us at [email protected] Q: My game is slow/laggy. A: First off, try checking the quality settings in the Options area, by defau…

- We're on Steam! - 26 September 2017
Hey everyone, we've just now become public on steam, and I would like to take this opportunity to give you a quick TL;DR rundown of what Omega Extinction is. Omega Extinction is a 5-Player Asymmetrical multiplayer shooter, where 4 people team up as the "humans" to survive the onslaught of the other player "The Experiment". The Experiment has many powers and abilities to aid him in killing the humans, including bridging (allows you to see humans through walls and go invisible) as well as disguising (transforms you into a perfect replica of a human). The Humans use technology and equipment to their advantage, such as the psyshield (blocks the experiment's bridge vision and removes a disguise if he enters it), Door Jammer (temporarily seals a door shut), Spotter (highlights a visible OR invisible experiment for all to see), Mine (explodes when an experiment is near it or if it's shot) and…
