New mecha season in Crossout. Part 2

Part 1

Part 2 (Current part)

Part 3

Hello, survivors! 

Let’s continue to learn about what new features are coming in the new season. This time we would like to talk about the new legendary cabin that builds upon the “Omnibox”, and have a look at the new legendary grenade launcher with two firing modes. Let’s go!

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. This applies not only to information about possible unique features of new parts, but also to the appearance of the parts themselves.

Legendary grenade launcher

The Scavengers have an explosive surprise for you!

The main feature of the new grenade launcher is two firing modes. If you make one quick click, the grenade launcher fires a projectile, which will burst into several small explosive fragments on impact. In this mode, the grenade launcher does area damage. 

If you hold down the firing button, the grenade launcher will fire a solid projectile, which will not shatter on impact and will not create additional explosions. This mode reduces the spread and increases the damage of the projectile itself, allowing you to use the grenade launcher at long range like a cannon.

The perk of the legendary weapon allows you to increase the damage with precision shooting. It is better to activate it in the first mode. The damage of the next shot will increase for each part hit by the explosion.

Legendary cabin

The new medium cabin builds upon the “Omnibox”. It also has two modes and permanent bonuses based on the mechanics of its predecessor, but these bonuses can be further enhanced during battle.

The first mode will increase maximum speed and power. Additionally, the first mode accumulates a bonus to damage based on the distance you have travelled, but you can activate this bonus only in the second mode.

The second mode increases the maximum damage of all weapons. Additionally, in the second mode, the cabin accumulates the bonuses to maximum speed and power. To do this, you need to deal damage to enemies. These bonuses can only be activated in the first mode. Note that the higher the rarity of your weapons, the more damage you will need to deal to accumulate the bonus.

The cabin requires constant movement and accurate shooting, as well as frequent change of modes according to the situation on the battlefield.

New structural parts

Also, starting this September, Crossout will have four Battle Passes per year instead of three. The levelling will become faster, and more content will be released per year, including free content. The content of each pass may be slightly reduced, but the number of levels and overall value will not change. 

Let’s keep walking through all the new features together in the developer blog entries. The next one is coming soon, and it will finally bring news about the new mechanical legs. Stay tuned!
