Knights Within News

small update
(please expect less frequent updates to the demo moving forward as I prioritize working on the base game for early access release)

• Sprint stamina cost slightly reduced (~5%)
  
• Visual updates to one of the map tiles
  
• Updates to particle lighting fx (making lighting more noticeable for the same performance)
  
• Excess damage now properly carries over through barrier (even just 1 barrier was able to negate an infinite damage hit previously)
  
• Fixed instances of a bunch of floating ground pieces on one of the map tiles
  
• Reduced radius of boss slow traps to 125 (was 175) and further lowered the fx to improve visibility
  

Thank you for trying the demo!

small update

• 4 new atmosphere options and updates to some atmosphere particle fx
  
• UI updates to try and make it more clear what mission resources are picked up/used/lost on death
  
• Increase radius of effect and damage of support call ins landing. Also knocks down enemies that survive
  
• Further small tweaks to enemy spawning
  
• Fixed client’s movement not always slowing down when ‘slowed’
  
• Fixed client side parry not working consistently
  

Thank you for trying the demo!

small update

• Parries now cost 0 Energy and Stagger the attacker, (instead of recovering Energy but no stagger) super useful against Berserkers & shields
  
• Successful parries no longer end the parry window, meaning you can parry multiple enemies within one parry window
  
• Reorganized how boss attacks are selected for each subtype
  
• Fixed an issue where switching weapons while ADS/Blocking would result in annoyingly having to let go of ADS/Block before you could do it again
  
• Increase firearm base mag size to 25 (from 20)
  
• Fixed some weird cases where status effects from ranged or AOE attacks would go through shields (except where intended, mainly ground traps)
  
• Various small menu and hud updates
  
• A couple rifle ammo mod stat changes
  

Thank you for trying the demo!

small update

• Updated ‘wave event’ spawning rates and limits, they should actually be noticeable now
  
• Minor updates to enemy spawning flow and consistency (mainly just removing instances of RNG on top of RNG to reduce random unintentional outlying conditions)
  
• Added additional text to clarify some things in menus
  
• 2 new songs and updates to a couple previous ones
  
• Reduced objective beacon activation cost for Shimmer to 20 (from 25)
  
• Increased objective beacon activation cost for medallions to 8 (from 5)
  
• Multiple Wanderer costs and rewards tweaked
  

Thank you for trying the demo!

A small update addressing some of the concerns brought up thus far

• Friendly fire stat should now track properly, and others should be more accurate (Not retro-active)
  
• Enemies should chase you much more aggressively if you try to exploit the map
  
• Updated extraction to prevent instances that would block access to it
  
• Minor adjustments to enemy spawn rates and locations during certain mission states (the goal is to improve the flow of spawns, not change the difficulty)
