Greetings Soldiers!
We have a new update for you guys today!
We are happy to announce that our DOM (Attack/Defend) game mode has been revamped. Players will have to carefully plan out their attack route as there are no longer respawns in this game mode. We are still fine-tuning this mode so let us know what you guys think!
Also, snap turn and jump are enabled for Oculus users now (for real this time)!
There have been some balance changes and fixes. The player models also have updated movement animations.
As always we are continually trying to fine-tune our game and listening to your feedback! Please let us know what you guys think and keep sending the constructive feedback and ideas our way.
