Devlog Trench Run Trench Run Free Weekend ON NOW! 5-7 FEB!

Hey Everyone!

Today we're happy to announce the next Trench Run Free Weekend!

It will run from the 5th to the 7th Feb 2016, which is this coming weekend! Set aside some time to play the game, particularly if you haven't had time yet, as it's almost finished!

Free Code: c181933f78095bf13dfd786a45f072db
Download Here: https://trenchrun.thd.vg/en/download​

The free weekend code can be redeemed for this weekend only, and will be removed from any accounts after the event is over. There is no separate build to download, just grab your OS version the download page! Redeem your code in the user panel after logging in on the trench run site.

The shops are open and ready to party!​

Once you activate the code, you will have full online access to Trench Run for the weekend:

• Online Play - because humans are much more interesting than bots!
• Persistent Coins - win coins to use in the lobby for fun diversions!
• Community Lobby - kick back and enjoy a drink or make new friends in a game of basketball between rounds!
• Costumes and Pets - unleash your unique flair with a flashy suit, cool hat, or a loyal pet dog. More costumes and pets will be added each build!

Also, if you buy the game (on the same account), any coins earned, as well as your purchased costume and pet, will be yours to keep after the weekend!

Old players should be sure to check in over the weekend as well, as there's a heap of new content added to enjoy, and you'll be able to play with the free weekend players as well.

• New Engineer - Simpler Rocket Launcher and Remote Explosive!
• New Maps - including procedural tunnels!
• Costumes - because who doesn't want a cool hat?
• Pets - get a faithful dog, a terrifying croc, or a serene fern!

Once it's started, it would be a great time to tell your friends on facebook, share the news on twitter, or bug your friends and family to play with you - share the code around, we'll see you in the trenches!

Re: engineer changes for no reason - if you've ever played with or against engie with ping you'll know just how desynced those rockets are. The remote explosives are also available to block areas and can be used to climb walls. They also deliberately reduce the melee potential of the class, as the bazooka works well enough vs commandos without being spammy like crates.

@wormy they'll have people to play with ;)
@TerranMarine there's been a lot of give aways, look out for chances for free keys !

 

Bumping this up - the free weekend will start soon enough, but Build 9 is out now for anyone who's purchased or wants to play offline!

Have at it and let me know any major issues before the event starts up!

 

Not that I know of? it's possible MM snuck a change in there somewhere though. you can still throw from the same distance though for sure. We just had a few bigger games and was nice to see people already interested in saving their coins. Will be interesting to see what decisions people make when there's a full complement of costumes and pets :)

 

100 coins for the only girl skin ;-; I may actually have to give up drinking...

 

The dates are slightly longer than what Geti said. Just to make sure that everyone has the chance to play the game during their weekend.
