Hello everyone! We have prepared another big update for you! Behind the scenes, we are also working on a new map and gamemode, which will be released in the upcoming weeks, so take this as a sort of part one to the whole update. Let's take a look at what's new!
CLASS REWORK:
This overhaul allows players to be able to tell regiment classes apart better, as well as getting more insight into their different stats. Each class is now also more distinct in their usage on the battlefield.
New info menu added to the regiment selection screen, which shows all movement and weapon statistics for the respective class.
New stat added: Damage to cavalry - now separate from infantry damage.
Added breastplate to cuirassiers - which reduces damage from muskets when shot. Headshots and lower + back body shots still insta kill.
Each regiment now displays it's class: Fusiliers, Grenadiers, Skirmish, Light infantry, Artillery, Dragoons, Heavy Cavalry, Lancers and General Staff.
CAVALRY MOVEMENT REWORK
We have implemented a new movement system for cavalry, more in-line with the industry standard. This will allow for more dynamic and realistic cavalry gameplay.
W and S move the goose forwards and backwards, A and S rotates the goose left and right, instead of strafing.
