New quests

New armor
We prepared two new helmets for update 0.51: MICH and 6B28.
MICH will be available for players of «Black sunset», and 6B28 – for players of «Confederation».
As well, we prepared new body armor, available for players entered the faction only.
Despite the fact that new body armor is related to medium armor, any character, reached Level 27, may wear it. We will closely follow the situation with new body armors, because appearance of such all-purpose armor may amend forces posture and balance.
Rounds production
In update 0.51 we will present the new type of craft – rounds production. This process is quite complicated and laborious, and it’ll cover all the stages of round production:
- Gunpowder production;
- Production of bullet and lead;
- Shell production;
- And, finally, production of the round itself.
All the crafted rounds will be more powerful than those sold in the shop. Thus, new rounds will make your weapon more efficient.
Stimulators production
After completion of Kuzmich’s quests, you will get the appliance and recipe for production of «Awl» stimulator. Now you are able to produce stimulator on your own, using the character’s inventory. As well, new stimulator named «Tough guy» will be available, which increases force indicator of character by 2 units. It has step-by-step effect; however, force indicator of character shall not exceed 10 units.
New monsters
Small symbiont moved in the wastelands. Stay alert!
Turrets and NPC
Unfortunately, we couldn’t get hostile NPCs done in full extent by the release of update 0.51. Nevertheless, NPC-guards will appear to help turrets in all the important points in this version. They’ll fight the peace-breakers. Probably, this solution is temporary, but it is very interesting to see, how the society responds to it, and how NPCs manage their mission. We will watch the situation, and hostile NPCs will appear in future patches in the frameworks of development of 0.51 thread.
