BLOCKADE News

Good day to the game community and guests of our project.

The next update was successfully installed on the server. This update brought balance tweaks, improvements and bug fixes to the game. All weapons have been adapted to the new damage system. In subsequent updates, we will continue to tune the balance, changing not only the characteristics of weapons, but also the abilities of skins, consumables and other items.

In addition to the update itself, there is also important information. Too many weapons have accumulated in the store. In order to clear the store, we decided to change the sales system for some weapons. The Lady Edition will be removed from sale around April 27 and will be sold annually by March 8 (the exact dates will be indicated in the community). After the 9 May holidays (we will indicate the exact dates in the community when the update is released) themed weapons dedicated to this date will be removed from sale. This weapon will be sold annually by May 9 (we will indicate the exact dates in the community).

List of weapons and items that will be removed from sale after April 27 (the exact date will be announced later): S&W Model29 Lady, MG 42 Lady, M700 Lady, Jackhammer Lady, Pan Lady, Shield Lady;

The list of weapons and items that will be removed from sale after the 9 May holidays (the exact date will be announced later): TT, Mauser C96, Luger P08, PPSh, MP 40, Sten Mk2, M1A1, PPS-43, StG 44, MG 13, RPD , DPM, MAC M1924, MG 42, Type 99, Lewis, Mosinka, kar98k, ABC-36, Gewehr 43.

Good day to the game community and guests of our project.

Better late than never, therefore... On behalf of the Administration and the Development team, we congratulate the girls in our game on International Women's Day! Let spring bloom not only on the street, but also in the soul, and the beauty pleases everyone around. We wish you happiness, prosperity and harmony. We wish all your days to be sunny, bright and memorable. Let everything in your life be the way you want it!

In this update, we have changed the damage system. This is an open test for all players. Based on the results of the test, it will be clear whether such a system should be left in the game or not. You can find the list of changes below:

Innovations:

• By March 8, all players have received gifts;
  
• Added indication of damage done (can be disabled in options);
  
• Added a new damage system for all players. If these changes improve the state of things on the servers, then there is a high probability that, with improvements and balancing edits, this system can be implemented in the game on an ongoing basis:
  
  1. Removed the parameter of penetrating armor from weapons;
     
  2. Damage from weapons first goes to the armor, and then to the body;
     
  3. Normal armor gives 25 protection, and reinforced 50;
     
  4. Helmets now reduce "additional damage" to the head. You already know that in the game, weapon damage to the head is doubled. The addition to the base damage is "additional damage";
     
  5. Normal helmet reduces additional damage to the head by 25%, and fortified helmet by 50;
     
  6. The helmet flies when killing a player in the head;
     
  7. Because the characteristics of the weapon remain the same, then some weapons may lose their effectiveness, and other weapons will become very powerful;
     
• Added the Pan weapon to the sale;
  
• Added a special offer for the purchase of coins;
  
• Until March 14, a special offer is available in the store for the purchase of a LADY edition for a donation;
  
• Until March 14 in the game, all players receive double experience on servers.
  

Changes:

• Revised the characteristics of melee weapons. We will gradually adjust;
  
• Mode 1945 is off;
  
• Replaced weapon models: JACKHAMMER, JACKHAMMER LADY, M700, M700 LADY, S&W 29, S&W29 LADY (old name MAGNUM LADY), MG42, MG42 LADY, SHIELD, SHIELD LADY, PAN LADY, SHOVEL;
  
• Changed the name MAGNUM LADY to SMITH & WESSON MODEL 29 LADY (this is the same revolver);
  
• Changed characteristics of shotguns KELTEC (reduced rate of fire), NOVA (reduced rate of fire), JACKHAMMER (added penetration of double armor) and HONCHO (increased damage). Double Armor Break does not work during Damage System Test!
  
• Changed the animation of the explosion of grenades;
  
• Smoke is replaced with pink.
  

Fixes:

• Fixed a number of minor bugs.
  

Have a good game everyone!

Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 - The most important event in modern world history, the greatest feat of the people.

We are all united by a common past, and we must be worthy of the sacrificial feat performed by our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers in the war years.

No matter how many years have passed, the memory of this war and of the Great Victory should live in the heart of the people, so that the connection of times will not be interrupted.

We heartily congratulate you on this holiday! Happy Victory Day! We wish that there was always a peaceful sky above your head, that this world would bring only happiness, joy, cheerful smiles and sonorous laughter of children every day.
