Patch 0.7 | Major Update 4

[h2]What’s New[/h2][h3]New Location — The Dead City[/h3]

[p]A new city location is now available for exploration.[/p]
[p]Explore procedurally generated blocks of an abandoned city, where every apartment building can be entered, and every flat hides its own secrets.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]New Enemy[/h3]

[p]A new demon type has been added.[/p]
[p]You can encounter them in the new city location.[/p]

[h3]Energy Rifle Questline[/h3]

[p]A new questline has been added, where you will assist the scientists in conducting their mad experiments.[/p]
[p]The questline unlocks at Reputation 5, and the quest givers can be found near the warehouse in the Hideout.[/p]
[p]As a reward, you can obtain the most powerful weapon in the game — the experimental Energy Rifle.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]New Weapon Physics & Improved Gunplay[/h3]

[p]Weapon physics have been completely reworked — no more shaky hands and weightless cardboard guns![/p]
[p]Recoil has been redesigned for all weapons. Guns now kick realistically backwards instead of just jumping up.[/p]
[p]Added recoil behavior for two-handed firing.[/p]
[p]Pistols now feature new hammer and slide animations.[/p]
[p]Uncleaned weapons can now jam in addition to reduced damage. The dirtier the weapon, the higher the chance of a jam.[/p]
[p]Stabilized weapon physics when holding only by the foregrip while moving.[/p]
[p]Stabilized weapon physics when colliding with walls and other objects.[/p]
[p]Removed collision between the off-hand and the weapon for easier grip of the foregrip and the slide.[/p]
[p]Magazines can now be detached with the main hand while holding the weapon with the off-hand on the foregrip.[/p]
[p]Adjusted grip zones on certain slides, magazines, and foregrips for easier handling.[/p]

[h3]New Attachments & Equipment[/h3]

[p]Added PU scope for the Mosin rifle. Can be found in raid or purchased from Truffle.[/p]
[p]Added tactical shell holder for the Sawed-off. Can be found in raid or purchased from Truffle.[/p]
[p]Added suppressor for the Saiga. Can be found in raid or purchased from Truffle.[/p]
[p]Added anti-personnel mine. Can be purchased from Zakharich at Reputation 5. Be careful — on Medium difficulty you can trigger it yourself, and on Hard your dog can too.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]New Settings[/h3]

[p]You can now switch the angle of distance grab between Index Finger and Palm modes. By default, new players will start with the more familiar Index Finger option.[/p]
[p]Added a slider to adjust hand movement smoothing (reduce hand shake).[/p]
[p]Added an option to simulate weapon and heavy object weight (inertia when moving).[/p]

[h3]Artifact Container & Revised Radiation System[/h3]

[p]Hunters now have a dedicated container for artifacts, located on the back of the belt. Note that you can no longer store artifacts in your backpack.[/p]
[p]Tutorial has been updated with a new stage explaining the container.[/p]
[p]Only the Hazmat Suit now offers full radiation protection. Antirad and alcohol now provide only partial protection — you will still take minor damage.[/p]

[p][/p][h3]Forest Palette & Lighting Overhaul[/h3]

[p]Vegetation now has autumn tones, and lighting has been slightly adjusted.[/p]
[p]Fog is now less bright and less dense.[/p]
[p]These changes primarily improve visibility and reduce streaming compression artifacts caused by excessive green.[/p]

[h3]Other Additions[/h3]

[p]You can now switch tracked side quests in the PDA using the upper face button.[/p]
[p]Added an extra repeatable insurance line from Zakharich for new players stuck in the shop after listening to his speech.[/p]

[p]9 new achievements added.[/p]
[p]A new competitive season has begun. Leaderboards have been reset.[/p]
[p]Some materials and scripts optimized to slightly improve performance.[/p]

[p][/p][h2]Changes[/h2]

[p]The game no longer pauses when pressing the button while holding a weapon, UV flashlight, or PDA. This prevents accidental menu openings during combat instead of using a UV flash.[/p]
[p]The insurance paper is now displayed more prominently on the first slide.[/p]
[p]Insurance description improved for better clarity.[/p]
[p]If all main and side quests are completed, Truffle now offers rare raid loot not only in his right chest slot, but in the left one as well.[/p]
[p]Food and drinks can now only be opened while being held.[/p]

[p]Trap-locked lockers now have a small mark on the door.[/p]
