Hello!
Good news everyone! Next week we’re planning to publish a new update - Game Quality Improvement Pass 2 which will contain a lot of visible changes. Also we’ve chosen the winner of the community vote contest!
Now, let’s have a look on what’s coming next.
Visual boost on Moscow Eye
During the optimization process the graphic quality unfortunately decreased (which is normal at some stage of the process) and now we are implementing fixes to boost the quality of graphics on the Moscow Eye level so that FPS will stay good and the visuals will be pleasing to the eye again. The effects should be visible in the upcoming patch and it’s still work in progress. See for yourselves.
Quick Menu expansion
After receiving many suggestions from the players about not enough slots in the quick menu we decided to expand the number of slots to 8. Now, you will be able to add more items you find useful without being forced to substitute other items instead.
Weapon Upgrade system reworked
We made changes to the Weapon Upgrade UI which should be more readable now. While upgrading weapons, statistics will be displayed in the way that dynamically responds to applied upgrades. We hope this will make upgrading your weapons easier and more pleasant.
Story Notes - improvements
Sometimes the notes you find in the game can be a little bit hard to read for some people. After all, they are often very old documents on which time has left its mark. That’s why we made some changes in this matter. Soon you will be able to zoom and move a note which will make it easier to read. But if someone would still have problems after all, there will be a new system that displays standardized text in the appropriate language.
This way you will be able to sink into the story more pleasantly ;)
Community Vote Contest Results
Last but not least, we have chosen the winner of the last community vote contest! The choice was difficult because there were so many really really great answers. But we had to choose one so the winner is… Gökhan Şimşek for his really long and insightful reply about Pripyat Port! Congratulations!
We will reach out to the winner via Twitter. Thanks again everyone for your opinions and see you in the next community vote!

#Friday
A couple of weeks ago there has been a tragedy. Tatyana’s red dress has gone missing after all this time it served us on various events. Fortunately, we have a spare one, but after all, it’s a shame.
BUT! We conducted an investigation with a search party and looks like we have our suspect! This guy.
Not only he’s a scary guy following your steps, but also female garment thief. You should really watch out for him.
That's all for today! See you next week!
