Reflex Unit : Strike Ops News

Thank you to everyone who tried out the Strike Ops Demo during Steam Fest! The demo is still available, so if you missed it, no worries – it's here to stay!

Based on your incredible feedback, we’ve made several improvements to enhance the Strike Ops experience:

Building Explosions
Now, when you take down the evil NEOTECH bases, they explode and crumble with dynamic physics!



Tuned Container Carrying
Carrying containers now incurs a significantly reduced movement penalty, so you can move faster and stay nimble.



Increased Enemy Presence
The NEOTECH forces received reinforcements and a software update to enhance their area control – expect more action in the AO!



Remappable Controls
Customize your controls! Gamepad and Keyboard/Mouse layouts can now be configured to match your play style in the settings.



Adjustable Camera
Adjust the Field of View (FOV) of the camera to your preference in the settings for an optimized view.



Disable Pause During Conversations
There’s now an option to disable auto-pause during conversations, so you can stay immersed in the action.



Show All Objectives
You can now display all objectives on the map at once, giving you more flexibility to plan your mission strategy.



Change Vehicle
Swap your vehicle at any time by returning to the aircraft carrier – perfect for when you need a fresh approach.



Special Surprise
At the end of the demo, watch out for a surprise appearance from a new contraption from one of NEOTECH's advanced research facilities…



Additionally, don’t forget that online co-op is available in the BETA branch, so invite some friends for some Strike Ops action together!

Hello, Pilots!

We hope you're enjoying the preview of Reflex Unit: Strike Ops after playing the recently released demo. Your feedback has been invaluable, and we’re excited to incorporate many of your suggestions as we work toward the final release in 2025, making it the best it can be.



In the meantime, we invite you to try out a special version of the demo that features online co-op mode! To access this, simply navigate to Properties > Betas and select the online_coop Beta Branch. As this is a Beta version, there may still be some issues, and we’d greatly appreciate your feedback and suggestions for improvement—feel free to share them in the comments below.



How to Start a Co-op Session:
Launch the demo as usual, and before selecting your aircraft, switch to the online mode in the lower-left corner of the screen. You’ll be able to choose from Americas, APAC, or European regions, and you can join either a public or private (password-protected) session.



For Private Sessions:
To set up a private game, simply choose a session code and share it with the players you want to team up with. Make sure all players select the same code and region, and you’ll be able to play together seamlessly.

Let us know how your co-op missions go, and happy flying!
