Responding | Update 08

[@MisplacedChase]

Why do I have a feeling this is going to end up like EmergeNYC....

[@blantonhometeam-yourreales1305]

Cause it won’t they’re going to be the biggest police sim game out there😊

[@irateamatsu]

Care to elaborate?

[@MisplacedChase]

@@irateamatsu EmergeNYC was a firefighting simulation game that started development years ago and is similar to Responding. They released occasional updates, again, much like this game here, and it is now dead. Also, EmergeNYC and almost every game like it, meaning a "realistic" first responder simulator based in New York are just overhyped asset flips.

[@MisplacedChase]

@@blantonhometeam-yourreales1305 That'd be awesome for them, but I don't see that happening.

[@Visionary-Studios]

@@MisplacedChase This has been an ongoing thing for many years now, I was originally on the development of Emergenyc, due to many reasons split off to create Responding. And so Responding is the result of pure passion for the genre and not a cash grab. Sadly the reputation of this genre has been very negative with good reason but in turn has overly complicated the development of Responding and extended the time required to develop, yet we are not going anywhere as throughout all these years we stayed independent and have an absolutely amazing community behind the project!

[@frantisekbabic9683]

I can't wait for this masterpiece to come out!!! I'm currently playing one police simulator but this looks absolutely amazing!!!!! You can be so proud!

[@ResistWithOlivia]

Try to push out a crowd-funding platform where we can donate so y'all can hire more people to reduce the stress. So the game can be polished before release. 💖

[@Visionary-Studios]

Been debating this for a long time, mainly because this genre has had such a horrible reputation that I want to keep it through the current pre-order method.

[@The007g]

I hope it will be not only a Flashing Lights clone. And the fact that the alpha is sold very expensive before the early access starts on steam.....is suspicious.

[@blantonhometeam-yourreales1305]

I purchased this before the update and they doing good or there word this release is perfect for early access alpha

[@bsavagestudios]

I was thinking it reminded me of Police Simulator: Patrol Officers. I forgot all about Flashing Lights

[@MisplacedChase]

Agreed. Similar to EmergeNYC.

[@mattalexander8925]

@@MisplacedChase I kind of honestly hope it puts EmergeNYC to shame myself and they can shine with a bright future.

[@loadingscreentipguy]

I agree.

[@Thebroshow13]

Awesome 👏 can’t wait to play .

[@Gemraw]

Looks like a combination of Police Simulator: Patrol Officers and Flashing Lights. Surely needs a ton of work as there are already so many glitches in this footage and it looks like a chore to play with a gamepad.

[@alexgre215]

looking forward! keep it up guys! and try to hire more devs,if you have the recourses.

[@Visionary-Studios]

We want nothing more, we hope this update gives us more exposure so we can get a dedicated team on the project!

[@alexgre215]

@Visionary-Studios Great!

[@GTBLeaderAliyah]

Can't wait, looks amazing!

[@BrickCity-BC]

It's a game I really want to buy when it's released. I think it would be great to implement an intelligent AI support system, various reporting andl additional elements, constant updates, and excellent optimization of various vehicles and equipment. For your information, I'm Korean. (Please translate it into Korean!!)

[@cadenbigler]

Hello! I bought this game many years ago... but I can't seem to find it in my account? I had the beta on my last computer but I built a new computer but when I sign into my account it wants me to buy the game. I can't seem to find the recipt in my email either, is there anything we can do to maybe look at my account and see if we can restore this purchase. I remember playing it a while ago and I would love to give it another go but I don't want to spend another $60 :( Thanks

[@commanderbrot17]

I would go and explain this in the discord the developer is pretty active there and he could probably help you

[@Visionary-Studios]

You will receive a new email with licensekey and new launcher over the next 24 hours!

[@commanderbrot17]

@@Visionary-Studios yessir looking forward to that

[@brog_]

I'm glad to see that this game is passion driven unlike the rest. Being a cop irl who primarily enjoys simulator games, it irks me to see the half-ass, cash grab simulators that have been flooding the market. I can confidently say that they're all trash. I can't stress this enough: graphics are nice to have, but please focus on the fundamentals and mechanics over everything else. Things like making sure vehicles pull over in a sensible position (or add a way to make them move if they pick a bad spot), being able to open your driver's side door before getting out, smooth animations, good physics, reliable backup/AI etc go a LONG WAY. Functionality is key! Take all the time you need to release a polished game. Optimize the hell out of it. And listen to your community! 🙏 Good luck, guys.

[@thomasdavis9576]

I cannot wait for this game

[@divisionsoftware]

Would be awesome if the stopped person in the vehicle would look at you, when talking with them. But all in all great work ^^ How are the plans for a release this year going?

[@Visionary-Studios]

These small details will definitely come over time, please check out our announcement on facebook or discord!

[@divisionsoftware]

@Visionary-Studios Okay, will give it a look! Perfect :)

[@whiterazzy3543]

Triedd requesting to make an account on their website, have yet to hear anything for a confirmation email and it's been more than 2 weeks. Was considering purchasing the alpha, but, I think I'll wait now.

[@Visionary-Studios]

Our entire site is replaced now, you should have no trouble!

[@Gemini2171]

Can you play with a controller or just mouse and keyboard

[@iicustodianlaw]

Are we able to play as ESU?

[@mattalexander8925]

This looks rely cool. It looks like its alot more fun than what lspdfr is. Looks like its way more interactive. Will there be a way to disable callouts and just do strictly traffic enforcement? Also are you guys going to make it open to modding at some point.

[@lautarodesouza6860]

Only for PC? 😢

[@loadingscreentipguy]

You are doing very well. But everyone else has already said that. There’s one big “issue.” And it’s that this looks like a scam game. It looks like it will either stop development with no refunds for donations or early access. Or it will be almost unplayable when it drops. Or the full release will basically be a graphics preview. But you seem respectable. So good work so far, those are only my concerns. And I frankly hope you prove me wrong.

[@Visionary-Studios]

Appreciate that, You're just giving me compliments. Due to the tainted industry I only show real live in-game footage and no cinematic trailers to give a realistic perception of what to expect, bugs and issues are also shown in every video. This is just my own ambition project, and thankfully to the incredible community we've build I've been blessed to do this for nearly 10 years.

[@loadingscreentipguy]

@ That clears a lot of stuff up. Thank you for saying that. Good luck!

[@PeninsulaCity2024]

I just want to chime in and say how its rare for any small dev to acknowledge how their project is being percived without getting defensive or giving a typical PR-like response. As well as showcasing their game without editing out "bad" moments nor overhyping / overpromising what their game might be. Because of that, I am more inclined to pick this game up over other early access projects in similar state. In any case, I hope you continue to work on this even if public updates are infrequent.

[@loadingscreentipguy]

@ Yes, he’s truly a honest and experienced dev.

[@Visionary-Studios]

@@PeninsulaCity2024 As this is only being developed by myself I have to be realistic, It will take a long time or a lot of funds to push the project to the finish line. I could've rushed it to a somewhat finished product years ago but it's always been a dream game that nobody was willing to make and so I'm not willing to cut corners on it. I've been full time dedicating my time to this for nearly 2 years, our supporters get exclusive development updates on our discord to keep them in the loop!

[@NYModz]

Will there be mod support?

[@NYModz]

Nvm just went on your site. Very nice to see you guys offer modding resources to developers right out the box! Keep up the great work.

[@faruk5881]

Yes🎉🎉🎉

Hello, the developers of this game. I think people are waiting for the release of this game not only from English-speaking countries, but also from Russia. The question that has been in my head for a very long time, will there be Russian language support in your game?

[@christianray-n9j]

What game is this

[@goonalwayz23]

Just play flashing lights. It’s way better

[@raptus3049]

Flashing lights isn't awful but it's super clunky and the dev focuses on making you pay for new DLC vehicles vs making an actual good game

[@Ayden-lj1mo]

Nope. Just no. Flashing lights is super clunky with plenty of bugs glitches and honestly anything. the AI is incompetent and is overall just stupid.

[@mobileplayers5008]

This game need a better title just Responding....

I'm sorry but NOTHING will ever be LSPDFR. All these games have cheap assets, no interiors, shitty ass animations, and sound. 😂😂
