Patch Notes
(Click Show details for a full breakdown of the changes)
[expand]
  • Changes to Loading weapon code to resolve physical weapons not appearing. New standards on soft loading in Unreal Engine 5.1 basically caused this issue
  • Updated Chelsey infection rates (in the difficulty settings) to stop the overly slow initial hive creation reported by Shaggy
  • Further updates to Chelsey infection rate so her early game start won't be delayed too much (seems like first hive is now ~13:30-15:30, instead of as late as 21:00)
  • Fixed Civilian buildings pinging the HUD with their 'construction complete' notification
  • MCX is now a burst rifle, spread decreased rpm is now 800
  • m4 was added to Winters, Engineer, Medic, Scientist and Spec ops
  • Behind the scenes we are still tweaking and adjusting logic for Dynamic civilian groups so the last 2 patches do include other "hidden" logic but we wont talk about them till those features go live in a few days.
Please note the following going forward (Restart your game/steam to get the update if needed

We are changing the way we do version numbers to simplify them going into the future. The one will represent a "release" version and the octet following it will the title update or major patch version we are on.
1.2.1
1 = Release version
2 = Title Update (Major Update)
1 = Minior Fix/bug fixes etc

[h3]New Roadmap system [/h3]
We now have a new system for our community to follow along on development. This website will break down all the major systems that are coming each patch. It will not include hotfixes/bug fixes. Sections inside TBD can be included randomly if we are ahead of schedule
Trello and the old picture Roadmap system will be removed going into the future.
