Officers, 👮♂️
We’re rolling out a big update for SWAT Commander: Prologue! Check out our patch notes for details on all the improvements: View game pageWe've got more features and changes coming to our Early Access version and once again, we'd like to discuss a select few along with a short video presentation. Many of these focus particularly with the convenience of gameplay in mind.
The Evidence Hint system: A new feature introduced in an effort to make the Evidence collection aspect of the game more manageable. This should prove helpful, for example, in case you get stuck on finding a particularly difficult to spot piece of evidence or elusive suspect.
A voiced report from TOC informs you about the location of this objective and a prompt on screen directs you towards it. We're currently considering scaling this feature across difficulty levels.
Filter for door-related commands: From now, the commands you can issue to your SWAT officers that are related to doors and doorways are dependent on both on the state of that given door together with the equipment available to your squad.
In order to know how you can proceed with the door, you need to investigate it with your Officers stacking up on it and if it turns out to be locked, you can proceed with lockpicking or breaching commands.
This serves to both add more realism to the game and clean up the Command List considerably.
The "Search and Secure" Command: A new command joins the SWAT arsenal! With Search and Secure, you can have your team or your entire squad perform a search of a cleared room for Suspects, Civilians, or Evidence to secure.
The AI system selects appropriate targets in an organized way and completes these objectives for you. Just make sure to be on alert as severe vulnerability is the cost of this procedure!
We have more to report, so stick with us for further summaries of other fixes and improvements making their way to the upcoming EA release.
