Known Issues
Final missions are brutal (by design). We will continue to tweak the difficulty curve, balance the AI waves, and add player guidance.
Final mission can rarely get called early, breaking campaign
Additional passes required on difficulty in general and unit count. Additional passes for single player balance and investigating pausing if in single player.
Armor does not yet store its health round to round. Armor health currently recovers after each mission. This will be changed so players have to re-buy armor if it is damaged.
Shared items can disappear from round to round
Bombs need their effects and sounds hooked up
Grenades that you pick up mid round are not depleted
Updating Red Dot/Holographic sights to not block sight picture
Reworking Pepperball optic attachments to avoid clipping
Muzzle flashes sometimes draw through walls
If your secondary has a laser, your primary will not have crosshairs. Changing weapons fixes this.
Occasionally a thrown grenade will look like it lands at your feet, but will explode in the correct location. This only happens if a packet is lost at the exact time of the throw.
Additional pass required on UI hitmakers (critical hit vs kill). Sometimes in the extracts, red hit markers appear for no reason.
Shell casings no longer create sounds. Their collision was turned off for performance. We will fix this with a better system that does not rely on each shell casing having collision.
Adding even more animations to AI for natural movement (side stepping, grenade dive, etc)
AI also occasionally get stuck or do not hear gunshots. Investigating.
AI don’t disable on mission fail
Found an AI under the floor in Airport. Investigating.
Missions are meant to re-roll after mission fail. Not all bad though, as it allows you to retry the last mission OR try a new one.
