0.7 URBAN WARFARE is the largest content update so far! :DOne of many things added is... characters now are able to blink! Oh and... character customization... that's kinda good too. Maybe not as good as blinking: The other less important additions:Cars. It can take you places. But oh... it can also... DYNAMICALLY SMASH THROUGH BUILDINGS. Depending on vehicle type, you may run through a wall before the car explodes. Recommended strategy: use this when raiding enemy safehouse.C4 Explosives and Grenades are added and they are more purpose built. These items are deliberately hard to find. And sometimes, enemies have them. Try to get it before they pull the pin!Away missions are no longer.. away. Which means - all locations in game now have physical representation. Safehouse raids, burger shops, job sites - they are now all represented by dynamic population of city NPCs and functional buildings. Many buildings have gained a dynamic (changeable) identity - such as... burger joints! NPCs now live their own lives! They go to work, get home, lounge around, and do NPC stuff. Like a true NPC would.You can now buy and eat Fried Chicken, or a Good Burger. Or Soda. These items give you buffs. But thats not enough. So for gacha fans, every item type has predefined rarity (common, rare, legendary) which means some items are not easily findable. And they have limited stock. So if you ever find a legendary Tasty Burger - do not miss the opportunity to buy it! 0.7.1, 0.8 and way more to come very soon. Stay tuned :DCheers- Bolko!
Continuing with rapid content updates - its time to make gameplay features more fun! Improvement patches 0.4.1 and 0.4.2 also released yesterday and today. Next updates, starting with 0.5 are already in progress. Goal is to considerably deepen gameplay features and make game maximally replayable and fun :DPrimary Changelog: Added Turf Wars and safe house section for separate Turf Wars upgrades, a new tab where you buy components that that help jobs, raids, missions, and city combat. Added in-city turfs so the city now has rival crew, law factions, and your own squad fighting for control of area. Controlling turfs brings in passive income and growth (careful, enemy group that hold turfs will get stronger and stronger over time!) Added road turf markers, capture zones so city territory is easier to read while playing. Added enemy turf patrols and friendly lookouts that move through controlled streets. Expanded Operations system with generated missions, target prep, mission reports, faction pressure, and better recovery after bad outcomes. Added more squad deployment control, follower help, better spacing, and stronger readable gunfights. Improved weapons, gear rewards, loot drops, inventory stacking, and loadout readability. Added Scanner and Standing Orders tools to help automate and guide work. Added more Steam support, including upcoming new achievements, stats, leaderboards, cloud saves, overlay support and polish. Added music! better audio defaults, and cleaner display options. Improved city performance, safehouse layout, HUD readability, combat logs, doors, patrols, saves, raids, and many minor bug cases.
