"Step right up! Two cans of Whoopass for the price of one!" - Ash Williams
That's right folks, the Evil Dead 2 update is almost here - this is what you can expect to see in-game later today when we go live at 8am PST.
- Added the Cursed Forest environment.
- Added the Cabin, the first new structure to explore beyond the Phantom Halls mansion.
- Added the quest "Read By Dawn" for Ash.
- Added the quest "Dead Language" for the Nerd.
- Added the quest "DIY Hard" for the Hillbilly.
- Added reel 2 reel tape player, which unnerves characters that are nearby, reducing accuracy and slowing melee attack speed.
- Added the possessed deer head, which can come to life and gore you.
- Added the corrupted tree, which can crush unsuspecting bystanders.
- Added Deadite enemies.
- Added the ability to quickly switch to the next, usable weapon (The key is bound to Z by default, but will have to be manually bound if keybindings already exist)
- Fixed erroneous Ash dialogue trigger (Spoke about machete when looted bat)
- Fixed an issue where characters could "change directions" while busy.
- Reduced cool down on Ash's chainsaw attack, revamped animation and extended duration of damage dealt, but it does need to rev up first!
- Full polish pass on giblets and splatter. It's Evil Dead 2, we needed more gore!
There will be an additional update this week featuring the Gooseneck Deadite boss in another Ash quest with the Kandarian Dagger quest item and some other polish improvements.
RIP!
