Hey Everyone,
Update 0.4 brings in a huge host of changes, from gunplay, to environmental additions, spectator mode, large CPU optimizations and more!
Read on for the full patch notes.
Additions and Improvements
- Added landmines -Landmines detonate 1.5 seconds after being triggered by the player - although if you are fast enough with your hands, you can defuse the landmine before it explodes, and re-plant it anywhere you want
- Added minefield near the US Base -The US Base had little to no drawbacks as an initial location for players to head to. This change increases the risk of heading there, via the direct route.
- Added minefield near & around the Old Airfield -Combined with the current amount of snakes around the Old Airfield, the new Minefield should make players think twice before bee lining there at the start of each round
- You can now grab large environmental objects (like fuel cans or vases) out of players hands
- Added hip fire penalty - some guns will now have decreased accuracy when hip firing (for instance, guns like the Scout are hit hard by this nerf, although SMGs like the Vityaz are unaffected)
- Added medical suitcases -These suitcases should be found rarely in houses around the map, and will typically spawn high level medical loot
- Added the "Demolition Expert" perk (5 perk points) -Make any placed explosive (including mines) 200% more lethal with this new perk!
- Improved Axe collision hitboxes
- Playable area in Practice mode rebalanced, doesn't decrease as quickly now
- New Freecam mode when spectating - use F1 (first person) and F4 (free cam) to switch
Bug fixes
- Various large CPU optimizations
- Fixed shovel hitboxes blocking interaction
- Fixed incorrect placement of fabric on some houses in Doda
- Added collision to some environmental objects that didn't have it
- Dead birds now obey the laws of physics (they should now stop rolling after time)
- Fixed HP Pistol & Scout UI text
