Upcoming update

Mercenaries!

We are glad to inform you that we are listening to your wishes and have improved the contract system! From now on, each player will be able to update all corporate contracts for free once a day, or for a little fee in CR or WB you will be able to change one particular contract - exeption for special contracts.

In addition, we switched to the updated version of Unity which will allow us to use new functions of the engine to improve optimization, net code and graphic component of the project.

In the meantime - we keep working on the global leveling system, new location and the updates for the netcode.

Stay in touch!

What are we working on

Mercenaries!

We are glad to share with you information about what we are currently working on at Hired Ops!

So, we are in the process of switching to a more recent version of the Unity engine, which will allow us to install a new network component soon, which, in its turn, is designed to fix the desynchronization issues of those players in who still face them from time to time (often happens when using mobile modems).

Also, we continue working on optimization, as well as on a global levelling system. We will give more information about these and other features soon.
