What’s New in This Update?
This update is packed with fantastic improvements, including revamped maps, refined visceral attack mechanics, a seamless cloud save system, and audio normalization for cutscenes. Let’s dive into the details!
Map Adjustments:
We heard you loud and clear! Navigating the levels was a bit tricky without clear player markers. Well, no more getting lost! We’ve added player markers throughout every location in the game, so you’ll always know exactly where you are. Just check the map, and you’ll see your icon shining bright!
Visceral Attack Adjustments:
Get ready for some epic action! Our finishing move, the Visceral Attack, has been reconfigured for optimal gameplay. We’ve rebounded the keys to CTRL for keyboard/mouse and R2/RT for gamepads. No more accidental rope climbs or reloads when you want to unleash your fury! This change paves the way for even more customization in the future based on your feedback.
Cloud Save Improvements:
We’ve supercharged our cloud save system! Previously, saves weren’t communicating properly between Linux/Mac and Windows. Now, you can effortlessly switch between your PC and Steam Deck without losing progress. Play anywhere, anytime—your saves are now fully synced!
Audio Normalization:
We know how important immersive cutscenes are to your gameplay experience. That’s why we’ve taken the time to normalize audio levels across the board! Say goodbye to jarring volume shifts; our cutscenes will now deliver a consistent and engaging audio experience that keeps you glued to the action.
Minor Bug Fixes:
We’ve also tackled a host of minor bugs to make your gameplay smoother than ever! For instance, we’ve reduced the cost of 40MM grenades, making them a more enticing option for taking down those pesky foes. Every tweak is designed with you in mind!
What’s Next? Road Map Insights:
Looking ahead, we’re focused on enhancing creativity in later levels. Some areas need a little more excitement—think ambushes and jump scares! We’re committed to revamping these stretches before our next big update. Weapon balancing is also on our radar; we want every playstyle to feel rewarding. Plus, we’re bringing in some epic battle music to elevate those intense moments during ambushes. Get ready for an immersive sound experience that will have your adrenaline pumping!
Thank you for being part of our journey in Creatures of War. We can’t wait for you to dive into these updates and continue sharing your thoughts with us!
