It’s about time, I am proud to announce the full release of For The Fatherland!

As of today, For The Fatherland is leaving the Early Access phase and the development process is coming to an end. I have implemented all of the content and community feedback you so kindly provided. Although the work on FTF is completed, I will provide hotfixes and patches should bugs or balancing issues occur. However, I would like to move on and start working on a new project building upon my experience gained while working on FTF.

Full release patch notes:

Fixed a bug that would not allow zooming in and out when you paused the game
Reduced the depot price of the smoke grenade ability from 100/50 to 50/50
Made some minor visual adjustments
Resized the depot ability icons
Implemented a more sophisticated six step tutorial on the first map
Changed some graphics options which should reduce the stress put on the GPU, I hope this improves the performance
Removed the percentage displayed on loading as it was causing issues (no idea why though)
Implemented seven Steam achievements
Updated the game trailer

Special thanks to Christiano for pointing out several issues!
