Paleo Entertainment released Merchants of Brooklyn on Steam only to realise later that the build released was an Alpha build. As soon as the game hit Steam, many users were reporting to have major issues with the game. Shacknews reported that:
Immediately after the title hit Steam yesterday, many users were reporting serious issues with the CryENGINE 2-powered PC shooter. Unacceptable sound quality, terrible framerates, deleted saves and a bug that entirely eliminated the HUD were among the various complaints.
Paleo Entertainment later released a statement on the official forum:
"We are fully aware of the problems that occurred with the initial release of M.O.B.," wrote Paleo Entertainment on their official forums. "Unfortunately, the incorrect version went up on Steam. The Alpha version was released initially, this has been corrected."
Paleo adds: "Please log in/log out of Steam to receive the correct version of M.O.B. We will be patching this game periodically to correct any issues that arise, as well as new and exciting features and multiplayer modes!"
What a way to release your debut title. This is a major mistake by a rookie developer. Considering they are an Indie developer, I sincerely hope that they learn from their mistake and listen to their community to update their game to make it great.
Merchants of Brooklyn is an FPS based off the Cry Engine 2 tech that has a unique art style. The game features hand to hand combat as well as your regular run and gun type combat.
