CLIFFSIDE REIMAGINED Testing event, NOW until TUESDAY MAR 23[/h3]
Cliffside has got a reimagining with Jake's version of the map Cliffside ReImagined. We're running an event for the next 3 days that let's anybody test it out! It's got new paths and new objective setups. We're looking for all the feedback we can so please leave any of it on the workshop page here:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2191909085
We will do more play testing in the future but this test is
until MAR 23 only!
Note this version of the map is in extreme beta, with few graphics. This is mainly a test of new layouts and gameplay variations.[h3]
Greetings Agents and welcome to Intruder update build number 1820![/h3]

The Update[/h3]
We are always looking to make Intruder better, and who is better to listen to than the players themselves? This update brings some fixes to Oceanside and gameplay changes based on suggestions from players like you!

Gameplay Updates[/h2]
[h3]
Riot Shield ReBalance[/h3]
Sick of getting shield rushed? This bulletproof gadget has been a favorite for many players, but may have proved a bit too powerful. We wanted to take away some of the single-sided advantage that the shield gives with these updates:
- Equip Times: It now takes longer to equip/unequip the Riot Shield. This should encourage players to commit to the shield and rely on teamwork to take out enemies they encounter while using the shield.
- Usability: While the riot shield was never allowed while prone, it will no longer be allowed while swimming or climbing ladders.
The Riot Shield still retains its ability to block explosives and remains vulnerable to pushes. In fact, it should be safer to push over someone with a shield as they're less likely to swap to another weapon before you can close the gap.

Oceanside Updates[/h2]
As an official map, Oceanside should be fun and fair to play. Here are some of the changes we made to improve gameplay:
New changes include:
- Bloon is now usable by the Intruders!
- Bush Camo also available
- Placing giant wall tags bug fixed
- Explosives and sensors now move with the van when it rolls up
- The van is bulletproof, but now it throws off some cool sparks if you shoot it
- Swimming under the map is no longer achievable
- No more standing on top of trees
- Some exterior cliffs/rocks have been made inaccessible
[h2]
General Updates[/h2]
These updates are not specific to a map or gadget, and are aimed at making Intruder more fun to play in general!
- Greater than level 100 support! Keep gaining levels and unlocks infinitely, if you've got the guts!
- Certain gadgets can now be used on ladders, but not in water, or underwater, etc.
- Binoculars can be used in water, but not underwater
- Players will no longer be able to crouch or prone while swimming.
- Players who try to fire the rifle without having a high enough balance value will receive a warning message explaining why their shots are inaccurate.

- When hovering over one of your stat charts on the website, the category percentage is now shown.
