A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

Patch Notes v1.8: New Layout - Carlsbad Small Optimization for GPU
1.7 Patch Notes: Bug fixes for the Pod Pack and some quality of life adjustments for how it rotates\maintains position Small optimizations to player class
v1.6 Release Notes: Player Swap - Overhauled system to resolve some annoying rotational issues that would sometimes come up - Added 0.5 second delay before taking over an AI character to allow the player a chance to adjust position Other Changes \ Fixes - Adjusted the audio falloff range to a larger distance so those long shots from corner to corner are not as quiet - Resolved an issue where the player would fall thru the map after finishing a match. It was really difficult to recreate often but I was able to reproduce it once and made an adjustment to prevent that.
Patch 1.5 Release Notes: General improvement to AI shooting, the AI will seek to shoot a bit more often to catch the player peeking instead of being biased toward vision of the player.
Hello Everyone, Thank you for all of the support on the initial launch of this project! I've received some great feedback on areas for improvement, and I’ve been working on adjustments in a test branch. I've also made a post in the Community Hub if you have any suggestions or feedback. I’ll continue releasing patch updates (v1.x) with incremental improvements based on this feedback, along with other refinements as development progresses. Some larger upgrades require reworking underlying systems, which comes with its challenges, but I’m excited to share them when they’re ready! Updated: Q1 2025
Patch Notes - v1.4: Increased difficulty scaling on both Normal and Hard modes Small Performance Optimization on Sound Assets Fixed Typo on Layout Selection
- Resolved rare bug throwing towel as the opposing AI scores - Small Performance Optimization on Player Class
Hello Everyone, I am very excited to announce that the release of Motus Paintball VR will be on Tuesday, October 1st 2024 for both Meta Quest 2 & 3 headsets here on SteamVR. After months of tweaking AI behavior, adjusting field layouts and optimizing the heck out of the game; I am looking forward to delivering a unique paintball experience to the VR headset. If you haven’t already, don’t forget to wish list the game to take advantage of that launch discount! 😉 Thank you for all of the support! Kevin
