Which DirectX version is installed on your system? You need DirectX version 9 in order to launch the game. If you have installed this version, try renaming or deleting your config.xml settings file in your Documents\Battleforge directory. If this also doesn't help, try to reextract the downloaded RAR archive (the game itself) and put in all the Updater files. Also add an exclusion to your anti virus for the BattleForge "installation" directory.

I like this. However I think that implementing all those achievements is quite a lot of work. But keep going. I read some really cool things so far. Maybe we can really implement them in the future.

We will split them into multiple different packs in the future when the game is out. But I can't tell you if we add this feature to the simulator. We will see.

Currently it is APS.Net, yes. Maybe we will change this later. Maybe not. Why did you ask?

These are statistics which will not be affected by the GDPR, hence we're able to do such things. I'm currently coding an API for our Administration Tool but it could also be used as some sort of manager for your personal account when it's up an running and when I implemented the user functionality. It does take time though, but it also doesn't make any sense to produce some charts before the final release of the game.

It shouldn't affect us because it is most about saving personal data. Since we don't have a shop where anyone could buy things with real life money or anything else, we shouldn't have a problem. There's no system on our servers where we would save your personal data at all. Maybe there's some logging of IPs, yeah. But we have no access to your private/personal data like name, address, date of birth, ... with which we could gain money. But maybe @MrXLink could make a little research about this concern.

I want to add something since he asked about the closed beta. You only have the chance to get into closed beta if you pay attention on the giveaways which will start at the 1st of February. There's no other way. But closed beta doesn't mean, that you can fully play the game since it will be still in development until open beta. So it could happen every day until open beta that the servers will get shut down to fix some things. All forum users will be able to join the open beta though.

Currently you can only preload the game to immediately start playing when the game reaches open beta. You are only able to extract the file to a place on your harddrive, but you can't start the game for now. So you won't be able to go to the forge until you get our launcher.

Wow. That's really bad. When the file size is approximately 5GB as packed archive it would take roundabout 7 hours to download the game (with HD textures). Without HD textures it would still be roundabout 3 hours. I expected that in Hagen would be better access to the internet though. Maybe there's another problem? Or is it just an old contract?
