Content Additions:
- Added a new level: Prologue. Why did Igor come back to Chernobyl right now? How does he know about Chernobylite? Where does the portal generator come from? Prologue will answer all these questions.
- Added a new level: Fractal World “Black Stalker”. It is the conclusion of a new investigation on the board.
- New quest “Kozlov Killing” (part of Mikhail and Olga chain).
- New quest “Kozlov Kidnaping” (part of Tarakan and Saskho chain).
- Dozens of new items to build. Including many functional things you'll read about in "Improvements / Additions"
Technology improvements:
- We've added support for HDR. This is just the first iteration and not everything is perfect yet, but the game looks very interesting.
- Our interactive “Green fractal world” loading screen has met with huge criticism from you, mainly for technical reasons. We changed it to a more classic loading screens, while strongly optimizing their duration. In the future we will replace the green tunnels with special films that will expand the backstory of the game. For now, we've created a trial one at the beginning of the game.
Improvements/Additions:
- This is the thing you asked for probably the most often, and somehow we managed to keep it secret. Now you can build armor in the base. 3 types with 3 different types of inserts. They will be very useful for players who prefer fighting over stealth. This is the first iteration, so it requires light polishing and balance. Surprise!
- In base you can now build a "Microprocessor Recycler" that allows you to extract raw materials from items that you no longer need. You've been waiting a long time for this, right?
- Following your feedback, we've added building system outside of Igor's base. You can build special crafting stations, enemy traps and covers right on mission levels. Not everything works as it should yet, treat this functionality as experimental! We welcome your feedback.
- New melee animations for all weapons. In the future, melee damage will depend on the type of weapon and the upgrades used
- New animations for stealth takedown. Now, to make them quiet and without killing you have to undergo training with Olivier
- Now Igor can climb and jump over smaller obstacles. Movement should be smoother.
- Igor can now use dodge, just like soldiers do. Timed properly allows you to completely bypass damage from gunshot or monster hit
- We have improved the placeholders VO. Now their sound should be much less annoying, and whenever they appear, relevant information also appears
