What to expect in the upcoming August update
Hello, survivors!
As usual, we would like to share the latest information about the upcoming update. There will be a new event “Echoes of war”, the return of the “Steel championship”, “Sea battle” and “Dronapocalypse” brawls, as well as a new version of the “Battle for uranium” event and a new rare generator that supplies 3 energy units!
By the way, the “Steel championship” won’t be the only sports-themed brawl of the next update, but let’s look at everything that’s coming in more detail first.
We remind you that all the new features described in the “Developer blog” are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all.
“Steel championship”, “Sea battle” and “Dronapocalypse” are back
The familiar brawls are back with some improvements.
For the “Steel championship”, we have taken your comments into account and slightly upgraded the preset armoured cars. It’s time to get better tires. The opponents’ gates are open for your goals.
All hands on deck! In the “Sea battle” brawl, choose one of the three preset corvettes and take aim at your opponents’ ships.
In the “Dronapocalypse” brawl, take control of small crazy drones once again. Fight the enemy team and make strategic decisions on when to attack the enemy Leviathan and when to protect the allied one.
New version of the “Battle for uranium”
This time, players will have access to two different modes at the same time, but you will have to choose which mode is more suitable for you. If you participate in the first mode and then move to the second, you will inevitably lower your rating in the leaderboard of the first mode and vice versa.
The first mode will be the same as the previous “Battle for uranium”, but now the PS bracket is from 8000 to 10000.
In the second mode, battles will follow the rules of “Clan wars” (fight until two victories) and the PS bracket is from 12000 to 13000.
“Echoes of war” event and a new sports-themed brawl
The new “Echoes of war” event with a reward scale full of various useful trophies will start in August.
We’re all familiar with football in Crossout, but what about hockey? It’s time for the Wasteland’s first “Ice championship”! A heavy puck instead of a light ball provides a completely different gameplay. More details about the new mode will come later. Stay tuned.
New generator that supplies 3 energy units
Please welcome the new rare “FG Aggregator” heavy generator.
Comment: due to the recent energy system changes, it became necessary to introduce a rare heavy generator that supplies 3 energy units (“Big G” that supplies 2 energy units was immediately followed by “Ampere” that supplies 4, so it was impossible to choose an optimal generator for some builds).
“FG Aggregator” is the predecessor to the “PU-1 Charge” and will be used in its production. The new generator will be available for production on the Engineers workbench. Please note that “Big G” will have some balance changes made to its parameters to match its light class and to clearly distinguish it from the new generator.
In addition, a number of other improvements are planned in the upcoming update, as well as fixing some known bugs.
That’s all for today. See you in future developer blog entries and other news!
