NEW CONTENT
H&K 121
The H&K 121 has expanded the Rifleman machine gun lineup. Its toughest competitor is the Stoner LMG A1 to which the new weapon compares favourably thanks to an increased rate of fire, better accuracy, a larger magazine, and a higher damage multiplier in the arms. These advantages are offset by a slightly lower damage, moderate range and ammo. Learn more.
The owners of the golden version of the H&K 121 can get a unique stripe by eliminating 999 opponents.
NEW SEASONAL RM SKINS
Our new seasonal Ranked Matches camos were inspired by playing cards. The skins are decorated with colourful images of cards flying in different directions and framing lifeless "ladies" and "kings". The design conveys a clear message: the owner of such a skin is no joke! The series includes skins for such weapons as F90 MBR, Tavor TS12 Custom, SIG MPX SBR Custom, Truvelo CMS 20x42 mm, Maxim 9 and the Gerber Tomahawk. Learn more.
SPADES SKINS
CLUBS SKINS
DIAMONDS SKINS
HEARTS SKINS
The seasonal skins will become available in the upcoming Ranked Matches season. We will tell you more about it soon in a separate article.
Warface PRO I SKINS
Another skin series will interest everyone who is into Warface eSports events, and prefers to use the most powerful guns available. The colour scheme of the Warface PRO I series continues the tradition of the line-ups dedicated to the tournaments of the past years, combining perfect style and bright colours. Attachments will get a fresh coat of paint as well. Such skinned arms will look great in the hands of your character! The series features skins for such weapons as Howa Type 89 Custom, Kel-Tec KS7, AM-17, SV-98, M134-GAU19b Hybrid, Kel-Tec SUB2000 and the Gerber Tomahawk. Learn more.
We will tell you more about how to get the Warface PRO I skins later. Follow the news!
TECHNICAL CHANGES
IMPROVEMENTS TO THE ACTION SYNCHRONIZATION SYSTEM
We have recently told you how in-game events sometimes create a short-term, but abnormally high load on server algorithms. Such a peak load causes micro-delays when performing in-game actions for example, dealing damage, moving characters, etc.
As result of the study of the previously collected data, we have elaborated a plan and carried out measures aimed to eliminate the "load peaks". We will talk about further system improvements in future publications.
CONTENT CHANGES
TWEAKS TO WEAPONS AND GEAR
The list of the primary class-specific weapons of the "Salamander" set has been expanded. As before, the set includes only regular weapon versions. Learn more.
All the weapon versions will be subject to change, unless stated otherwise. Have a look at the table below to discover what combat stats will be revamped.
The visual model of the melee weapon Black Hawk will be reworked in the next update. Now it will be more detailed.
In addition, themed models and achievements obtained upon eliminating enemies with the regular version of the axe have also been modified.
OTHER CHANGES
Important
- Added Warface PRO I achievements (3 marks, 14 badges, 6 stripes).
- Reworked the system of log-in rewards. - Now in one set there can be several reward streaks instead of just one (at the moment, there are three of them). - To access the next streak, you must complete the previous one without interruption. - In reward sets of several streaks the last one will repeat. After completing it without interruption, you will return to the beginning of the same streak instead of the first one. - The last streak contains the most valuable rewards. - The entire set and the streaks now have separate timers. At the moment, 7 missed days reset the progress of the current streak and return you to the previous one; while 30 missed weeks reset the progress of the entire set.
- The "Quick Play" matchmaking rules have been updated: now the user will not be able to join the match from which he or she was kicked.
- The rules of the "Storm" mode have been changed: - the round time for each side was reduced to 10 minutes (it used to be 15); - the fighters of both teams will now respawn faster; - the time required to capture a command post has been reduced; - now for the fastest possible capture of a command post, you need 3 soldiers instead of 4; - the ratio between the time spent in the match and the rewards received (both for the first victory of the day and in case of victory/defeat) has been preserved.
General
- Added АК Alpha Random Boxes.
- Localization changes.
