Game Update! Tweaks & BalancesMay 28, 2025 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/d8e736231f8ddc7b8729e9156adab1edf6149079.png Holdfast updated! Continuing strong in our mission of polishing up the game and making it ever more accessible we’re pleased to announce the release of this next update. Featuring a plethora of quality of life features, optimisations and bug fixes, this release steers us ever closer to completing our mission and eventually what will be one of Holdfast’s biggest releases to date. More on that in future posts, for now take a look at everything coming with this update down below. QOL & Gameplay Quality of life was a key focus of this release. Keeping the game fresh and up to par with modern standards is a key element required to bring Holdfast into the new era. Capturing the last point on the Army Siege game mode will now immediately end the match. This has been introduced to combat 'backcaping' on certain maps where it was prevalent. Extended capture zones have been tentatively introduced firstly for Frontlines Invasion maps that feature beach landings. These extended zones allow for more unique capture zone layouts and will eventually make their way into the Napoleonic side of the game should they be required. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/f35254b069bd4ce96007acf9f5a723409a24e87c.png A slew of new indicators to better distinguish your characters states have also been introduced. You’ll primarily notice these when reloading, attaching and detaching your bayonet and when performing other actions. https://i.imgur.com/dod1UaD.gif One of the more obvious of these changes is the new addition of showing the playercard of the enemy you have just killed. This will allow you to see the accolades and titles immediate of the player you’ve just bested in combat. https://i.imgur.com/8t406LQ.gif Another part of this update was refreshing the public server experience, this included multiple reinforcement changes to maps along with improved map voting functionality in order to provide a more varied experience on Army Siege, Army Battlefield and Army Conquest maps.

Optimisations V2Apr 9, 2025 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/ca9b3f881109ee195357985a984832c5de590786.png Greetings, good fellows of the Holdfast community. Following up on last week’s release, we’re hitting the decks with another update addressing bugs and introducing more optimisations to reduce memory utilisation. Expect more to follow on this front soon! While it may not be the most exciting of releases, it's a necessity to ensure we can continue supporting and updating Holdfast for the years to come. Our commitment to bring Holdfast into a new age remains ever steadfast. Do let us know on Discord if you face any issues folks. We’ll be sure to look into it.

Optimisations & Community RewardsApr 3, 2025 - Community Announcementshttps://clan.fastly.steamstatic.com/images//28169799/ca9b3f881109ee195357985a984832c5de590786.png Holdfast updated! After some months of dedicated and hard work we’re pleased to announce the release of this performance and optimisation update. It introduces community rewards and brings forth a whole slew of optimisation that will cater to more consistent and stable framerates and hopefully provide an overall smoother Holdfast experience across the board. Find out more by taking a read all about it in greater detail below. Performance Staying true with our commitment to continue bringing Holdfast into the new age, this rather large optimisation pass we’ve undertaken will be a key instrument into making the game more accessible and playable for generations new and old. https://i.imgur.com/TQP3Dpd.gif It is a major step forward in our ongoing efforts to support Holdfast and its beloved community for years to come. It certainly wasn’t an easy task but a necessary one and involved looking back at almost 8 years worth of game's art, systems and processes then bringing them up to our current standard. The art team dedicated time optimising old meshes and where missing introduced new lower detailed meshes that will get rendered at a distance. A good portion of the textures were also optimised to further improve ram usage along with much stricter animation culling. Lastly, the ever-dedicated fellows in the programming team continued doing their magic to reduce RAM and improve CPU utilisation. All this and more had the added benefit of the games install now being even smaller by a few gigabytes. This truly only grazes the surface of the work undertaken by the team these past few months. It’s almost impossible to count the many changes made. Expect more to follow on this front in future releases. Despite the many testing passes this release has undergone, there's of course a chance some bugs may have slipped through the net. Should you encounter any of these then please do report them via the #bug-reports channel in our official Discord server linked at the end of this post. Community Contributions A portion of this update brings entirely new rewards for players who go above and beyond the call of duty. From event hosts to workshop modders and everything in between, those who lend a helpful hand or create something truly special will be granted (by our discretion) a whole slew of new medals and rewards to showcase their brilliance. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/b6c3aa9674d32d64642b471c50909db265d1e047.png We’ll begin awarding theses out in the coming months retroactively and look forward to awarding them to many more of you in the future.

We're also dishing out a few additions based on community feedback including the ability to view one's class level experience and other gameplay-focused adjustments to the orders system.

All progress is retained. Building Legacy A new feat chain ‘Building Legacy’ has been introduced which will reward players for reaching certain milestones with a class.

British Person Simulator Thanks to a complete overhaul of our back-end across previous updates totaling to over 9 months worth of development hours, we’ve been able to develop some long awaited features for the game. One such feature is a server queue system which will now be implemented across all official servers. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/4a3f71a230f391b88c999473bd03cc667ecb5154.gif When a server becomes full, players wishing to connect will be placed within a queue. As slots become available your position in the queue will advance until you are the next to join. Players will also be prompted to join a recommended server should they not wish to wait around for a slot to become available. You’re also free to continue browsing the main menu or head over to the barracks to customise your character as you wait in queue. 8 New Battlefields To compliment the new queue system and to help keep fighting engaging for those populating fresh servers, 8 entirely new maps have been added into the public rotation. Buckland Banks, Crossroads, Convoy, Domont Gardens, Isle of Wake, Lindisfarne, Tropics and Vestiges are all playable across both the Army Battlefield and Army Conquest game modes. Each map features a unique environment and design along with some new playful additions that’ll make for some good fun. https://i.imgur.com/9UvWjI3.gif https://i.imgur.com/wOTCtv5.gif https://i.imgur.com/3u7JJAP.gif https://i.imgur.com/OBZogzz.gif Reinventing The Wheel Alongside the new additions to the battlefields of Holdfast. we also took the time to go back and rework some of the game's longest serving maps, some of which dated back to the game's release on Early Access in 2017. A good majority of these changes were environmental changes, especially the Oak Environment which was entirely overhauled (thanks to the Oak summoning circle 🌳) but with some maps we paid extra attention to the design of their gameplay areas and issue some much needed improvements. We’ve made sure to pay proper tribute to these classics by staying true to their character while bringing them into the new age. Check out the full change log for a list of all the maps that have undergone a redesign. https://i.imgur.com/CfrGB4B.gif Squading Up This update also brings with it a plethora of quality of life changes, namely we’ve taken a look at the officer squad camp system to further impr...Holdfast Launches On Steam DeckAug 30, 2024 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/127d3639cc2a32ef322c58220ecafd3c0232496f.png Engage in large scale Holdfast battles on the go with the official verification and release of Holdfast: Nations At War on the Steam Deck.

With a few touch ups and thanks to the Steam Deck's powerful hardware and brilliant design, it happily runs Holdfast and it's shenanigans with great graphical fidelity and at an impressive frame rate. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/5fce3c1d47cb993ad7b3ccc9b5229cbad611874f.png On The Horizon Following up this Steam Deck release, next month will introduce the Battlefields Expanded update, the largest undertaking of map reworks we have done to date.

In-line with community feedback tracers from other players will be shorter and fade faster while still maintaining that chaotic feeling of musket balls flying around you. Your own trail will remain as it was before to provide a visual feedback to adjust your shots. https://i.imgur.com/Lt8H8Kk.gif The adjustment on the melee mode camera to be accurately centred has been reverted to ensure the melee experience remains as it was before. We’ve also fixed the slight visual delay on the flintlock mechanism animation when firing that was making the firearms feel unresponive. https://i.imgur.com/AttgzkS.gif Additionally we've tackled instances with the Steam-deck that wouldn't allow players to use a keyboard and mouse as their main input if desired. We also introduced the ability for the UI to be scaled to increase clarity and size of the elements for those on smaller displays. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/25758f359c8c5abc5589b80a576ac519f9d72393.gif Make sure your game has been updated to Version 2.21 to see game servers in the lobby.

Here are some quick tips to get you started. Naval Warfront Tips Going with the wind is faster. When going against the wind do not deploy 'square sails' as they will cause you to go much slower and act as a wind brake. Do not load cannons if you aren’t using them: A loaded cannon is a dangerous cannon. It can explode when hit and damage the ship. Teamwork is key, work with your fellow crew mates to help with ammunition, pass along orders and fire off volleys at the enemy fleet. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/28169799/d1d824867430aa1b901d7917b11fdad543b99aac.png Be sure to read through the rest of the blog post to learn more about our next update which we're currently hard at work polishing off preparing for the initial testing phase.
