- After a lot of trials and tribulations, all versions of the game client has now completed QA successfully.
We will do no more testing on it.
All game servers will need to be taken down for updates. The maintenance period starts on Wednesday Jun 30th at 07:00AM (GMT+2). Most of them should be back up by 11:00AM (GMT+2).
During this time window, we will also release the new game client.
Check back after 11:00AM (GMT+2), and try out the new game client! What's gonna change that we know of. They have gone from the original R12 to what it is now R15. So who knows what else will be done. - Quote :

- The Balance tweaks are as follows:
Slightly increased the damage of the UZI at long range. The AKs74u now has more felt recoil when aiming. The G3, VSS, and all SemiAutomatic rifles now settle slightly faster between shots when aiming. The PKM, Type 88LMG, G3, An94, and 40mm shotgun have returned to their former glory. Increased the damage of the MG3 to bring it in line with the rest of the LMGs. Fixed a bug where the Saiga12 with slugs would do too much damage at long range. Fixed a bug where the SVU would do too little damage at long range. Fixed a bug where M95 rounds would not kill armored targets with headshots. | |
