As things start to calm down a little for Iron Gate AB after a massive Early Access launch of Valheim, they've announced another big sales milestone and more to come.
Less than two months since the EA release, they've now hit 6 million sales! Due to how popular the game has been they've been doing various interviews, podcasts and more which has obviously taken away a bit of time. They're also working from home still but they're "not letting that slow us down".
For the next patch to be released, curiously they said they're waiting on a "Steam update from Valve before we push our next patch". It's not been made clear why they have to wait on Valve for a Steam update and they didn't go into further detail on that. They did mention they have a public bug voting system, so if you have issues to put them up there and vote for them.
In regards to the first major update named "Hearth and Home", they make it clear their focus has been testing and bug fixing but as things calm down they can put more time into the first major upgrade. They also gave a sneak peek and asked what we think it could be?
What are you thoughts to the image, what do you think it is? Speaking about the update they said "We have a lot of exciting things planned for this update, and we have of course listened to your feedback and suggestions, and can barely wait until we can show you more.".

You can buy Valheim on Steam.

Quoting: GoboStatistically they have sold more than one copy for every current citizen of Denmark, one of the regions where vikings originated from. Or more than the whole population of Scandinavia 200 years ago. With one game. By five people.
~1,03 copies for every danske.
~1,11 copies for every nordmann.
(Based on population numbers from wikipedia)
Which means means that if they ever publish which contries bought the game, we'll see that half was sold in Denmark, and the other half sold in Norway. Stands to reason.

Quoting: AppelsinI need to play this more. Anyone know how to make it a borderless window in Gnome, or do I need to maybe boot to a different DE and play there? Maybe in general some way to make games full screen borderless windows? Pretty sure I used to know how to do that... Guess I could DDG it... :PQuoting: GoboStatistically they have sold more than one copy for every current citizen of Denmark, one of the regions where vikings originated from.

And they have sold 153 copies for every citizen living today in the city Iron Gate comes from (Skövde, Sweden) :-)

Quoting: F.UltraHa, would be amazing if that were the company size, and the whole village exists to make the game.Quoting: AppelsinQuoting: GoboStatistically they have sold more than one copy for every current citizen of Denmark, one of the regions where vikings originated from.

OpenGL still plays demonstrably better than vulkan for me and I've yet to experience a hard crash when using OpenGL.
I attempted to break in my new GPU by trying vulkan again and it crashed within 5 minutes so back to OpenGL is was.
