Steel Balalaika has acknowledged that Broken Arrow’s version 1.1.0.3 update failed to meet community expectations and has committed to releasing another major update before the end of July.
The studio was direct in its assessment, stating the update fell short primarily because too few of the changes from the public test environment made it into the final release, and that several new gameplay features included in the update drew widespread criticism from the player base. The team has begun reviewing what was and was not included relative to what had already been tested on the PTE, with the stated goal of course-correcting toward the changes the community had already responded positively to during testing.
The announcement follows the anniversary update released earlier this month, which was itself the result of a three-month testing period that split the community between the live version and the beta branch. That the follow-up update has already generated significant pushback suggests the reconciliation of those two versions did not go as smoothly as intended.
Further details on the upcoming update will be shared through Steel Balalaika’s official channels ahead of the July release.
