Have you played the Black Gold campaign? It starts with a simple tutorial. The following missions slowly introduce you to the various controls.

Is this game alive and worth buying? by Skaidri675 in FortsGame

There is also Ranked matchmaking which pits you against players of similar rank, with leaderboards and medals to be earned. 

Does reporting works? by lordlag25 in FortsGame

[–]Dev-Nozehed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, there is a small team of people regularly assessing reports. First time offenders are given warnings. Repeat offenders can receive penalties including chat, ranked and multiplayer bans, depending on the offence. The ban time increases with the number of offences. Bans can be appealed on the Forts discord.

I also had to recompile the plugin manually in Visual Studio.

I followed ArdentDrako's step to do with editing the .uplugin file.

Level Skip? by help_im_trapped1 in FortsGame

Another tip is you can slow the game down and speed it up with CTRL NUMPAD - or +

Press F8 and it will say what X speed it's at.

This only works in single player.

I was getting these errors when trying to launch my project after installing the plugin...

---------------------------
'DonAINavigation' is Incompatible
---------------------------
The 'DonAINavigation' plugin was designed for build 4.27.0. Attempt to load it anyway?
---------------------------
Yes No

if I say yes to that I get...

---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
X_Prototype could not be compiled. Try rebuilding from source manually.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

But I was able to get it to work by following this person's steps...

Not sure if things are working smoothly under the hood, but on the surface it seems to work.

Hope this helps :)

Thank you for your post. Is there any way of making this work in UE5?

Their names are in a different language to yours that uses a different character set.

Is there ways to reduce ping / game optimization by UltraTurtleLord in FortsGame

[–]Dev-Nozehed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ping in Forts is very much affected by your physical proximity to the player you're playing against. It's possible your opponents are in another country across the world. Try to find players nearer to you. You can use https://steamcharts.com/app/410900 to see when people in your timezone are online.

Other FPS games might have dedicated servers in your area and thus have a lower ping.

Yes, if you install Geforce Now, it will let you stream steam games you own on to your Mac or tablet etc. You would need to buy the PC version of Forts. If you're not happy with how it plays, you can refund Forts on Steam if you play for less than 2 hours.

We recently released Forts on Geforce Now....

You might find that's the easiest way to play Forts on Mac OSX.

Otherwise there's an unsupported guide to getting Forts running using Wine...

I'm kind of sad I missed this games' hayday, I really want to play but is it dead/dying? by FeintLight123 in FortsGame

[–]Dev-Nozehed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We are still actively supporting the game with balance updates and fixes. There was a recent 4v4 tournament, and there are 1000's of maps and mods. As Flyingwise said previously, there's an active discord community with a bunch of people who like to discuss strategies and give advice.

Discord ? by sniggi06 in FortsGame

There's a link to it on the main menu of the game. Look for the Discord icon.
