Hey Everyone,
Tonight we've got a pretty big patch lined up, with a new weapon, big improvements to AI, graphics, performance - and of course, plenty of bugfixes!
Read on for the full patch notes.
Additions and Improvements
- Added the UZI Personal Defence Weapon -Firing 9mm box rounds, the UZI is an effective close-quarters primary weapon. With a very controllable 600RPM rate of fire, and a higher effective range than the Vityaz, the UZI is a solid choice for short range combat. -The UZI has a high spawn rate in guard towers & at the Old Airfield
- Added the UZI mag
- Decreased snake health damage amount by 50%
- Improved grassy terrain textures
- The playable area now can only move a maximum of 100 units per tick (previously it was moving >200 on a bad decrease)
- Reduced adrenaline spawnrate in medical spawners
- Weapons can now spawn in worse condition
- Moved AI over to new character model & animations
- Influence events (eg. "Russian weapons have arrived in x") are now a LOT more potent
- Rocks from explosions can now hit & hurt you if travelling at a high enough velocity
- Painkillers now restore health over time, as opposed to instantly
- Reenabled fog at some higher quality settings
- Nerfed MK16 hipfire accuracy by 50% -Previously, the MK16 was almost always a better choice than the M4, due to lower recoil, and higher general accuracy.
- Improved Depth of Field effect so that it actually applies depth of field -It's almost worth paying 3ms/frame for now!
Bug fixes
- Various explosion shader optimizations (performance, visuals)
- Fixed AK holding animation
- Fixed GIF-spam in chat when recording a GIF
- Fixed Animation blending artifacts on lowest graphics settings
- Tons of AI fixes and improvements (pathfinding, looting, behaviour, combat)
- Fixed missing polys on a few houses around the map
