HIGH HEELS UPDATE!
Hello WISE GUYS! High Heels is here!
This is the first big update for WISE GUYS featuring...
New Map - New Mode - New Characters - New Weapons - New Music - New Lobby - Teams - Host Options, New max player count! & more!
NEW MAP - HIGH HEELS
Bigger. Darker. More dangerous.
On the backstreets of Jersey, lies a grungy, neon-soaked strip club where panties drop faster than dirty money can fly. There are more rooms to hide, four new characters, and even more ways to get it wrong. High Heels brings higher stakes, because in this club, somebody always pays the price.
This map is 2.5x bigger than Cold Cuts and brings a whole new vibe to WISE GUYS featuring 7 new characters, new weapons to turn your friends into slop and all new original music from DJ Gabagool!
This map is still a work in progress and I will be adjusting it over the entire development leading up to 1.0
We have been having a blast during playtests so I wanted to put it out there for you all to play, let me know your thoughts!!
NEW ROLE - THE FED!
You're not one of them. You're undercover, surrounded and outnumbered, but you signed up for this. Gather evidence to build your case or arrest the WISE GUYS to win!. Nobody knows you're the most dangerous in the room. But watch your back because if you get exposed, no one is coming to save you.
The Fed is a game changer! The FED can take photos with his NOKITO SLAB cell phone and submit them back to HQ to build a case, once all 5 stars are filled or all WISE GUYS have been arrested, The FED Wins!
The FED also builds individual cases on other players, the more crimes the FED witness, the more the star grows above the WISE GUY, once the star is full, the FED can arrest the WISE GUY, eliminating him from the game.
Crimes the FED can use to build a case...
Witnessing Murder or savage beatings
Witnessing players stashing items or destroying evidence.
Taking photos of loot, evidence or dead bodies then submitting the messages back to HQ will build your case.
Be very careful not to fall in too deep.... if you break your code and dish out lethal damage to anyone, you will be exposed as the FED!
I'm so excited to hear what you guys think of the FED, I have so many cool plans for this role that will shake things up in the future.
NEW SANDBOX MODE & LOBBY
Feel free to run around each map with no timer, no roles and cause some chaos with your friends in the new Sandbox mode!
I learned quite quickly that players are not a fan of sitting in the old lobby, waiting for more players, so I have begun building a playable lobby to remedy this!
When you host a match, you will start a new playable lobby filled with weapons and also the early stages of character selection which will be releasing very soon! Set your skin on the "Employee of the Month" board!
HOST OPTIONS & TEAMS!
Many players requested the ability to set how many Rats were in a match and also player names appearing above heads, I am happy to announce I have built a new Host screen with multiple settings to customize your lobbies.
Some of these options....
Max RAT & FED limits
Up to 3 of each role can be set (This will scale dynamically based on player count in the near future)
Player names!
Players Steam names will be displayed above their heads.
Random Map rotation
Time Limits
Set your round time limit for RICO games.Random Skins
(This is locked on until character selection is complete)Firearms Toggle
Sick of trigger happy Bosses? This one is for you!
TEAMS!
The beginning of Teams starts with this host option!
RATS & FEDS can see their team mates as their roles in game.
There is also an option for a team outline.Other Host options are in development, I am open to suggestions on what other options to add in the future too!
Building this update has been a hell of a ride, and I have no doubt things may get a little bumpy as new content means all new bugs haha I am still working towards starting a public testing branch for those willing to help break and fix the game, stay tuned on the Discord!!
To celebrate this milestone, WISE GUYS is 25% off for the next 7 days!!
Thanks to all of you for your patience!
Huge thank you to everyone who has been involved with this update over the last few months!!
This is just the beginning for WISE GUYS
