Hello everyone. Venister here.
I'm glad to reach out to you with new updates. Today, I'd like to share with you a little bit of today's patch and details of upcoming updates.
Our team is still working really hard as usual. They have been having some hard time since players left but we're still grateful for that there are still players that support our game.
Today, we're adding a new game map as seen above. While this map is only available in Gladiator mode, we're not just updating Gladiator mode. Anyway, this new map is designed based on a art of Adam Corp's storage. We took a part of a campaign mode map, and resigned it for Gladiator mode match.
In the following week, we'll be adding a new map in a similar manner catering the rest of game modes like TDM. I'll share more details next week.
Then, we will be able to introduce you a bit about the next new character class pretty soon. Though I do want to share it with you as soon as possible, we still haven't completed some art work and I thought I'd wait a bit more to be abale to give you the introduction with visual presentation. I have not played the new character myself, but it looks like an attractive character looking at the development process. I can't wait to give you more details because I have a strong feeling that it will come with a bunch of new strategies and play styles.
Before we release the new character, we will be applying network optimization codes. The biggest problem at the moment is that network code of GunZ 2 is not yet fully optimized, and we will treat this with top priority level. - Dedicated server is something that cannot be done within short time period, so let's discuss that later.
Once the network code optimization update is applied, you might feel some differences in the feel of gameplay. Gameplay experience will be improved for players with low bandwidth capability - slow internet.
We also expect that players with high bandwidth capability will find some improvements in character motion such as jumping.
I will be back with more updates next week about other important topics.
Thank you all.
