Hello Agents, and welcome to Update 2274!
We’ve been stoked to hear your feedback on our Armor Update, and for that, we thank you all! Your input is incredibly valuable to us and helps us make Intruder the best game it can be.
With that said, we kept on trucking after the Armor Update release, and today we’re glad to introduce you to our brand new Update! We have worked hard on bug fixes, rebalances, QoL changes, and minor additions.
Following feedback provided by the community on Discord, we made some tweaks and balanced Armor’s stats accordingly:
- Nerf: Balance Damage reduction from 65% to 40% to accommodate OP crouch balance
- Buff: Balance Damage reduction now also applies to prone
- Reduced amount of Armor pickups on official maps
Now without further ado, let’s jump in!
Additions
- Added ping display (/ping and options menu)
- Added FPS display toggle to the options menu
- Added safeguard to prevent the game from opening at 1x1 px resolution
