Hey everyone! We've got another major update in store for you! This update's main focus is on new gameplay and quality of life features, as we near the 1.0 release.
FEATHERED FRONTLINE
WHAT IS IT?
This brand new system provides a way for the community as a whole to work together for exclusive, one-time seasonal rewards, pins! You can obtain up to two pins per season, and can stack up to 4 different pins on your headgear!
HOW TO PROGRESS?
Every kill you get contributes to the global Feathered Frontline progress bar. Once one of the two milestones is crossed, each player that contributed will receive either a silver or gold pin, depending on the milestone.
Your kills are contributed to the frontline progress only if you stay until the end of a match.
Bot kills don't count towards the progress.
SUPPLY CAMPS
New supply camps have been placed all around the map, serving as a depot for resupplying your ammo, which is now limited to 30 per player. Camps also have a sapper construction material crate and a cookstove.
ARMED CITIZENRY
Each nation has received a new armed citizenry regiment - this regiment is avaliable to both free-to-play and DLC players.
Armed citizenry serves as the backbone of the team, providing buffs and logistics supply.
COOKING AND SUPPLY
We have added two new classes to the armed citizenry, the cook and the ammo bearer. As a cook, you can use the supply camp's cookstove to prepare different foods, providing various effects when eaten. Once cooked, you can carry the pot to your army, allowing them to receive buffs like a stamina or morale boost on the field.
The ammo bearer can similarly use his supply crate to carry ammo to the battle, stopping the need for the whole army from having to retreat to resupply.
Each armed citizenry regiment deploys:
3 Fusiliers
1 Officer
1 Sapper
1 Cook
1 Ammo bearer
LEVEL-UP PROGRESSION
As a free-to-play user, you are now able to unlock DLC exclusive regiments by levelling up! Every 5 levels, you can pick between two different regiments to unlock your favorites.
To account for DLC players, 3 new DLC exclusive cosmetics have been added, a saw, dagger and spoon. More are on the way!
PRUSSIA REWORK
We have remade all of prussia's shakos and headgear, as well as adding a new regiment, the 10th infantry! A new flag pole has also been made for Prussia.
SPAIN REWORK
The Spanish marine headgear has been remade as well, and a new fusilier batallion has been added for them. For more unit variety, the Batallón de la Muerte has been changed into a skirmish regiment.
OTHER CHANGES
The events board has been remade from the ground up, now showing the whole weekly schedule. The backend function has also been reworked, preventing the events from bugging out.
The Plunket's duck achievement has been fixed and is now obtainable.
Bugs with rocket artillery have been fixed.
