This update adds a few improvements for dedicated servers like a reduced log and download size, server owners should make sure their servers are updated and still work correctly! The friendly fire system has been extended to include tasering, boxing, and some explosives, and friendly fire is now disabled by default, but can of course be enabled again in the server options.
Robbers now have access to a new mask called "Gas Mask", which completely prevents fire and poison damage while wearing it, allowing teams to build more sophisticated strategies around the Poison and Distractor classes.
A very widely requested feature, especially from users with widescreen monitors, was a "Field Of View" setting, which has now been added to the game, allowing you to customize the FOV to your liking. A small UI hint for cops was also added, reminding them that they can resupply HP and ammo at the cop car since this wasn't explained in-game before.
As some of you might be aware, there will be a small community tournament on September 3rd, from 17:00 to 21:00 GMT time, join the games discord for more information, and join the community twitch stream!
There are also some minor nerfs to the Insider, Tech, Vault Cracker, FED Agent, and Detective classes, as well as some smaller buffs to the Firefighter class, you can take a look at all the smaller changes in the full changelog below!
