New Patch Online Now

Hoi Chummers!

Check out our new Shadowrun Online - Early Access Update we just implemented!

New Features:

  • Shadowrun Online Steam Early Access is now also available on MacOS!
  • Disabled skills have tooltips now, too
  • Objects in the world have proper tooltips now
  • Line of Sight is correctly visualized now: Only enemies seen by at least one of your characters will be visible. If enemies are not seen they are greyed out
  • Characters have ragdolls now - so everyone dies in visually pleasing and interesting ways
  • Exchanged PvP map with a newer version
  • Updated splash screen + News

Edit: Added to Patch Notes as also in this update:

  • Cover system reworked – half cover now offers less protection and full cover significantly more. This was suggested by many of you and changes the gameplay tactics quite a bit to make your positioning and movement more meaningful
  • Path smoothing – making running a less griddy affair
  • Some shader improvements and mesh and texture improvements for all the characters

Fixes:

  • Fixed mouse height issue in Mission 1. Doorsteps no longer cover up the mouse cursor
  • Second player no longer sees the first player's hit percentages during the first turn of a PvP match
  • Text hover when sprinting informs the player that this will end their turn
  • If you happen to get stuck in the loading screen, you will now get an error message informing you that the server cannot be reached
  • Door / Locker opening sounds are no longer played if all sound is muted

Don't forget: Let us know what you think about the update in the Feedback thread in the Community Hub!

See you in the Shadows, Chummers!

-Your Shadowrun Online Team!
