Eternal Crusade is leveling up and performing an engine upgrade. This is expected to significantly improve the performance of the shooter.
Eternal Crusade – The War Will Be Even More Beautiful
The Unreal Engine 4 will be upgraded to version 4.11. Since Eternal Crusade, the upcoming shooter MMO from the Warhammer universe, is based on this engine, fans can look forward to significant performance improvements. According to the developer blog on Steam, the new patch is expected to launch during the week of May 2, 2016. In addition to the engine upgrade, there will also be improved matchmaking that is expected to largely prevent unbalanced matches. Apart from that, the patch will come with a variety of balancing changes, bug fixes, and some “surprises” that they cannot discuss yet.

This video shows how “serious” it gets during the motion capture recordings used in Eternal Crusade. You can often see how the actors have to hold back their laughter. Definitely a very entertaining job (which leads to cool results in games).
Currently, Warhammer 40K: Eternal Crusade is still in early access on Steam and is currently more of a lobby shooter. Ultimately, the game is supposed to be an MMO. However, before that happens, the shooter elements need to function perfectly.
