Infestation: The New Z News

Hello everyone,
We are happy to announce a great new feature that is being worked on and is ready for an early release. We will be bringing AI to Infestation!
This is something that's long overdue and is being asked by players for a couple of years now.
Without further ado, here is the video of our DevBlog on the new AI Bots:

[h2]GENERAL CHANGES[/h2]
[h3]GENERAL FIXES & CHANGES:[/h3]

• Added AI Bots to the game. For more details on it, watch the video above!
  
  • AI Bots have two main categories: Bandits and Civilians.
    
  • Bandits will shoot on sight and will drop loot.
    
  • Civilians will be semi-passive (only attack when are attacked). They will not drop loot. They can help players moving to and from safezones against other players and against zombies.
    
• Disabled Clan Territories in PvE Servers
  
• Updated Shadow Options
  
• DeathMatch Gamemode Prototype has been added to the game.
  
  • They will for now replace Warmup Servers and will have the new queue system similar to Competitive. Items are random and there is only 3 second revive time. More information on this coming soon.
    
• Rifle Laser can be toggled on/off by pressing the Flashlight key (Default is F).
  
• Fixed a major issue with sounds not playing properly when too many zombies were around you.
  
• Fixed a bug with the Missions that would cause a crash when trying to complete them.
  
• Improved the functionality of the flashlight and laser/flashlight attachments.
