Hello everyone, long time no see! We have another update for you and a special announcement! We also focused on a lot of long awaited issues and server optimizations so make sure you check out the bug fixes column as well! So kick back, relax and enjoy!
To start off we have a new weapon making an appearance on the island! The Vintóvka Snáyperskaya Spetsiálnaya or VSS "Vintorez" is the big older brother of the AS Val. Chambered in the same 9x39 caliber round the VSS is a more stable and accurate sibling of the two. But it also takes up more of your inventory space since the stock is not foldable. So if you are taking accurate shots, which you cannot pinpoint where from, you know that the VSS is smiling at you.
Introducing new smoke grenades, now in more colors! Use them for concealment, use them for signals, use them as distraction or use them however else you like. These are a great tool for squads, alliances or RP servers. Enjoy!
We also included an item that a lot of you have desired and asked for a very long time! New millitary holsters are in! For all you super cool tactical operator operators out there, you can now die in style!
We added a new POI to the D0 sector. New millitary barracks have been set up with tons of high end loot, yet still fitting into that wild abandoned theme.
Now let's announce what you already read in the title: you all requested it and we are here to deliver. If you want to spend a couple of extra bucks to support the development of the game, we are now offering Supporter pack#2!
