Unbroken: The Awakening 3rd Major Update is now LIVE

[h3]Greetings fellow Unbroken,[/h3][p][/p][p]The 3rd major update for Unbroken: the Awakening just dropped along with the awesome Boomstock event. Be sure to tune in for loads of cool games that go Boom, as well as a brand new exclusive trailer for UtA! But for now, here is a infographic how to access the time limited Boomstock level and 2 youtube clips fruther below: one is a preview of the some of the new content with commentary, as well as an action oriented trailer. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We are getting closer to leaving Early Access with one more major update to go. Estimating the final major update should be ready late December 25 / January 26. This one will focus mainly on polish/ refinement and microdetails. [/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]As always feedback is very important I would be extremely grateful for the input. That's the major pro of Early Access, after all. Discord is the best and fastest way to do so, so hope to hear from you over there.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]And of course, if you enjoyed the ride through Crests Edge, please do leave a review! It really means a lot and helps with the games visibility.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Please excuse I will be keeping this announcement a bit shorter and concise than usual: flu season started early in Poland and just contracted covid from the missus and brain fog and general pain is making it rather hard to focus. [/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]So without further ado, moving on to the good stuff of the 3rd major udate: [/p][p][/p][p] New major content:[/p]

• [p]The 2 stage Boomstock Theatre level. Clear out the famous cinema located in Midtown for some explosive action and setpieces. Finding this one may be tricky, since it is a secret level, but for the duration of Boomstock (23rd-29th Sept) direct access will be available via the Boomstock poster in the saferoom at Coltons Rest[/p]
• [p]Russian language added: Handled by the talented Kristina and Andrei who also handled the Neckbreak translation. So I hope you enjoy this one! A minor heads up: Kristina pinged me that certain translations are missing: this one is one me, since the translations are ready but weren't correctly assigned in the project. Luckily these are easy and quick fixes and will get them done asap once I get back to good health with a smaller update.[/p]
• [p]New Resin: the untamed Resin is a wild one. Found usually in the wilderness, this resin boost up the players movement speed significantly as well as health. What's the catch? It actually starts off with a subtle time speed up as well. So making the best of this one is going to be challenging, although rewarding if ultimately tamed. For each kill during the resins duration will boost the players speed further and slow down time. So maxin a combo with this one is going to be rewarding to say the least.[/p]
• [p]New Fist attacks and transition to idle state. Updated all fist attacks as well as added new ones, like an uppercut, hooks and an open hand slap. After these attacks, player will briefly be in combat ready state with guard raised and lowering it back to the regular idle pose. The transition state is still WIP as forearms will not be visible if the state is active during sprinting. This will be adressed in a smaller update soon.[/p]
• [p]New Levels:[/p]

[p]*Destruction playground. Accessed from Boomstock theatre, this one is quite something for the demolition squad enthusiasts. Test out the various destructibles as well as how enemies react to the environment with a well placed resin kick or shotgun blast. To access it, instead of heading for the main Boomstock theatre exit to the overgrowth behind the building on the right, drop down one level and go left. You'll see a sign for a demolition set.[/p][p]*Palace museum. A proper entrance to the Earls palace has been added with a challening royal guard encounter[/p][p]*Epilogue/Prologue level: a moody walk with gorgeous vista before joining Julian at the Plateau. Available at certain endgames or ng plus which will play out differently based on the players chosen path and choices.[/p]

• [p]Huge update to exisiting maps. Changes range from small cosmetic details to complete overhaul of areas. This affects around 60% of current scenes. So ie you'llsee a lot of smaller details and events in Gorlitz, polished midtown elevator in Vonderpark, reworked midtown alleys and multiple microdetails -Loads of new animations: ranging from enemy attacks, reloads, walking/running states, player reloads now more varied between each specific weapon, like ie loading a cannonball or cocking the precision rifle. And a whole lot more.[/p]
• [p]Reworked Chat GUI. Updated chat box, font, re-added avatars (which were disabled for Early Access launch, due to the system being unfinished) for improved visual aesthetics[/p]
• [p]New enemies, new dynamic tunes.[/p]
• [p]Updated gore system and effects. Dynamic blood gushes and drips have been added, as well as completely reworked gibs and impact effects. [/p]
• [p]New resinf filter: First off, thanks to Diana & Kuba for the idea! Available under general settings. A really cool cinematic black/white and red filter has been added. Available under the the "strong" and "seeing red" presets. The difference here is "strong" applies the filter only for the rage/adrenaline mode, whereas "seeing red" applies the filter for all resin.[/p]
• [p]New visual options: even more ways to alter the style to your liking. The cinematic post has been moved from the graphics settings to the visual styles settings, reworked Bloom and HDR settings, as well as brand new options like:[/p]

[p]*HUD Post: This one is experimental and recommend to use with caution. It will unify the style more by applying the set post effects on the GUI/HUD as well. The potential downside here is that it can make the menus hard to read/navigate, especially with the pixelate/chromatic abberation turned on. [/p][p]*Environmental Aura toggle: This will toggle presets of intensity of the mood ambient fog and volumetric effects[/p][p]*Constrast slider: Since displays vary depending on hardware, this one should help out greatly for those finding the game too dark[/p][p]*Experimental Post: What started out as a potential substitute for the cinematic post, ended up as an additional robust post effect settings: including sharpen, pixelate, outline, light flares and more[/p][p][/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p]General update notes:[/p]
