STABILITY PLAYTEST Timings | NEIGHBORS: Suburban Warfare Dev Update
Hello NEIGHBORS,
We are SO excited to host the first playtest of the year. We have taken your feedback from the last playtest to heart and tried to address the most pressing issues immediately after we got back from the holiday hangover.

Friday, 17th January 2025 12:00 CET - Monday, 20th January 2025 10:00 CET

The Jackhammer B.B.B AKA THE BISH BASH BOSHER 9000, manufactured by "Homewrecker" inc. 🔨as ultimate destruction tool. Drops in a big Mystery Drop.

Our second map Serenity Summit ❄️☃️ is now playable for the very first time.

Button Icons for Xbox and Playstation Controllers 🎮
UI Sound Overhaul and new music. 🎶
[h3]BALANCING & FIXES[/h3]
Day & Night adjusted. Nights are now shorter. Days get progressively longer.
Reduced the amount of shops from 4 to 2. Backyard and Kitchen buying stations have been removed to remove clutter and let the game flow more.
Beartraps are now destroyable with Melee weapons.
REMOVED Magpie (aka the bird in a nest) as it was destructive to the game flow and just OP.
Limited the amount of available traps per team. Teams now share an overall amount of buyable DEFENSE items e.g. Baseball pitchers (10), Beartraps (20), Spring Boards (15) Barricades (15), Barb Wires (8) etc.
LOTS of VALUE BALANCING like e.g. Health of Structures, Baseball Pitchers, Doreen Nerf and more.

We are kicking off the playtest with a Developer Stream on our Discord server and look to showcase our recent changes and of course play with the community.
Greetings,
Artjom
