You see, instead of getting all of the Future, we were gonna get a Talk and Walk sim, but PROBLEMS, as in database and some coding problems, which prevented the Future map to be implemented, as a result the only thing released was the Tutorial.
The game released on the 2nd of August, and not the 1st. Heres the devblog:
We're so happy to announce our target release date for FusionFall Retro!
During the evening of August 1st 2017, we ran into an issue that caused our Database Library to break, leaving us unable to implement the key features needed for a full release of FusionFall Retro. While this may seem like a major setback, we’re only expecting resolving the issue to take a week or two.
After we discovered this, we quickly shifted gears in order to ensure that you, the FusionFall Universe community, were still able to get a dose of FusionFall Retro within the time frame we promised. Introducing: The FusionFall Retro - Early Access Client!
Please note that this build is highly experimental!
This
build is not guaranteed to work on your computer and the servers will
not always be available for use. You may also need minor computer
skills to get it up and running! For detailed information on
troubleshooting, please visit our forum thread for details.
Please note that it is our intention to make running the game much simpler for the full release.
FusionFall Retro Experimental Early Access Information
For
our initial Retro launch, we were unable to make our mark of releasing
our goal as a result of a library issue with our database, and for that,
we are truly sorry. We intend to squash this bug within a week or two
and get you guys into the Future! That said, we're able offer
a unique experience through the FusionFall Retro Early Access sneak
peak. This is a custom of Retro with the tutorial section of the game
fully operational!
Here are some important things to note:
1.
In order to install and run the Early Access experience, you must have a
version of Windows. Any version below 7 is currently untested.
2.
When installing, we recommend making sure any anti-virus or malware
software is disabled to ensure that the client installs correctly.
3. Run the installer in administrator mode. You can do this by right clicking the file and selecting “Run as Administrator”
4. Make sure you have the latest version of Microsoft's .NET Framework installed.
5. If you're missing VCRUNTIME140.dll, having Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 installed could potentially solve the issue.
6.
Before you log in, make sure you have a FusionFall Universe account.
You’ll use your website password to enter the game. You should also
ensure the Servers are up. You can check the status via this thread.
7. Track pads (commonly found on laptops) are currently not supported.
8.
If you have an issue with your camera spinning in circles, try
unplugging or disconnecting controllers or any other input devices.
Please
note that all of these requirements will be simplified before the full
release, for an easier playing experience for everyone. This build is
intended to help us test.
This
build lets you play from Character Creation up through the end of the
tutorial, which is signified by a black screen. (If your mouse gets
locked on this screen, press the enter key to unlock it. From there, you
can close the game window.) Players can not go any further than this at
the current time. Character data is also not saved at this time. That
said, you’re free to run through as many times as you want!
This build is experimental. You can expect crashing, bugs, and more to be present when using the Early Access build.
Please keep all troubleshooting and bug reports limited to this thread! We’ll be trying our best to see what works and what doesn’t, and keeping it all here helps us out a ton!
We
appreciate everyone’s patience in with Retro’s release. It’s been a
bumpy ride, but we’re very close to delivering the full Retro
experience! Stay tuned for more info!
We urge you to read the full post before downloading!
We are currently having connectivity issues, and we'll be working on correcting them throughout the day! Please be patient!
Luckily, 2 days later, the problems got fixed, and as of writting this the team is working to put the Future map ASAP. We will probably see it in a few days.
Go check the thread in the forums to get any help that you may need in downloading and problems. Expect the 1st part of my walkthrough tomorrow!
