Enemies

• Deals damage in a straight line, be sure to side-step as soon as you hear his LMG fire!
  
• He has a relatively low amount of health, so make sure to use your rifles to pick him off!
  

Charger

• Stand behind walls and pillars to make him crash into them.
  
• Focus your fire to stagger him and put him dead in his tracks.

• 4 Unique Mobster Skins

Harvest Rework

• Headshots now give x4 Harvest for Snowbreed instead of x2 - making it much more important to aim for heads to get the most bang for your buck.
  
• Limbs now give the full 1.0x Harvest instead of the previous 0.75x as Ice Armor often gave players no other choice than to shoot at limbs.
  
• Doubled the Harvest you get from dealing damage in a Run, giving you now roughly ± 1% of the Damage Dealt as Harvest - massively promoting performance over participation.
  
• Reduced the Harvest dropped by shooting Sprawl Weakpoints & Frozen Survivors from 25 / 50 to 5* / 10* respectively.
  
• The flat Harvest dropped by Snowbreed has been significantly reduced, this is the amount that would drop even when a player didn’t contribute to killing them.
  
• Reduced the cost of Consumables, Throwables & Devices to not make players go broke when they buy 1-2 per Run.
  
• Slightly increased the cost of certain weapons to better match the harvest rebalance.
  
• Harvest Bonuses are now much more substantial, all of them seeing a huge increase:
  
• No Freeze Bonus: 10% increased to to 25%
  
• No Damage Bonus: 25% increased to to 50%
  
• Squad Bonus: 5% per real player increased to to 10%
  
• Timed Bonus: New formula is 400 / Minutes = % Bonus
  
• Accuracy Bonus: 15% to 25% Bonus; If above 40% Accuracy
  

Balancing

• Advanced Reloading now gives a flat +50% damage multiplier instead of 35%, making it truly equal in strength to Quick Reload no matter the Difficulty or Mutation.
  
• Made the start of Horde much more difficult, allowing players to get into the action from the get-go.
  
• Players can now choose to use the ‘Auto-Sprint’ option when in Smooth Locomotion, giving you full sprint speed when the thumbstick is all the way forward, without any additional input.
  
• Added a cooldown mechanic to Teleporting, where you can no longer spam them. 0.35s, players can freely teleport after the cooldown. This cooldown is not active in the Hub!
  
• Reduced the Dashing distance in Teleport from 1m to 0.5m, to give it roughly the same speed as Smooth Locomotion.
  

• Increased Speed Forward from 2.4 to 2.5
  
• Increased Sprint Forward from 4.55 to 4.9
  
• Decreased Speed Backward from 1.35 to 1.5
  
• Decreased Sprint Backward from 1.95 to 2.0
  
• Increased Speed Strafe from 1.85 to 2.0
  
• Increased Sprint Strafe from 2.85 to 3.0
  

• It now takes slightly longer between a Fast Snowbreed attacking and it dealing damage, making it more realistic to dodge them if you react in-time.
  
• Added Stagger Damage to Horror mode as it being disabled removed some of the strategy, weapon builds and fun found on the earlier difficulties.
  
• Reduced the max hit range of Fast Snowbreed from 4.5 to 3.5, making it possible to actually get out of their attack instead of it being a near-guaranteed hit as soon as they start their lunge.
  

Auto-Shotgun & Pump Shotgun

• Increased the Shotgun Max Ammo from 30 to 40 to support the Auto-Shotgun’s ammo consumption.
  
• Lowered the Pump Shotgun fire rate from 3 to 2 and upped its recoil to make it the slower but harder hitting variant.
  
• Increased the Pump Shotgun stagger damage per pellet from 30 to 40 to make it even more viable at stopping specials dead in their tracks.
  
• Massively tightened Pump Shotgun spread & reduced damage fall-off to give it its own unique fit versus the auto-shotgun.
  
• Increased Pump Shotgun damage from 70 to 75 to ensure its damage output is unmatched as long as shots are placed properly.
  

• Increased the duration of the Eater blind from 9 seconds to 13.5s to make it more of a threat.
  
• It now takes longer between a Smasher doing a ground stomp and it actually applying damage, ensuring it visually aligns when you receive damage.
  
• Increased Tommy Gun damage from 60 to 65 and massively increased it’s damage over distance, all to make it be able to better stand up against the damage output of double SMGs and other 2-handed weapons.
  
• Removed the Revolver’s Damage Multiplier on Specials, as with Chipsets it became too overpowered.
  
• Equipping an Ammo Counter now reduces Stagger Damage by 10% instead of the previous 2.5%.
  
• Reduced the fire rate reduction you would get from higher rarity barrels on the Tommy Gun, making all upgraded barrels shoot slightly faster.
  
• Fixed the purple barrel calculation for a handful of weapons, ensuring that they no longer give an unfair advantage over Prototype or Military barrels.
  
• All Ammo Crates now restore 100% of the player’s Max Ammo, meaning you won’t have to shoot multiple crates just to stock up.
  
• All Ammo Packs now fully restock the respective ammo type, instead of roughly 25% per Pack.
  
• Players now spawn with full ammo for all ammo types instead of having some discrepancies where some types were filled and others weren’t.
  
• Increased Shockwave Explosion damage from 600 to 750 to ensure it packs enough of a punch to 1-hit kill Snowbreed if they are close enough!
  
• Changed the amount of specials that can spawn on master from 8 to 10 and on nightmare from 10 to 12 to add more variation to the fights at these difficulties.
  

Items & Progression

• Added in Laser Sights for all weapons. Players can opt to use a Laser Sight instead of an Ammo Counter as their utility attachment. Laser sights reduce damage by 5% but can greatly increase your accuracy!
  
• Added 6 additional weapon slots to the Armory, giving you more space to store your decked-out weapons!
  
• The Tommy Gun can now be unlocked from Purple Floppies instead of Yellow Floppies.
  
• The Shockwave Device can now be unlocked from Yellow Floppies instead of Red Floppies.
  
• Lowered Disco Skin Unlock Condition from round 90 to round 80, making it slightly more achievable for a percentage of experienced players.
  
• Increased Donut Skin max session time to complete Horror from 20 minutes to 25 minutes to make it achievable in longer levels as well.
  
• Warheads & Rage Boosters now have a higher chance to spawn in Loot Rooms, cabinets, lockers and drawers making it worthwhile to open them even on higher difficulties.
  
• Added in a Angled & Vertical Foregrip for the Pump Shotgun, giving it much more recoil control.
  

Fixes & Tweaks

• Redid all the lighting in the Hub & Armory to make it easier to see other players, their suits - and especially your own weapons in the Armory whilst crafting or hanging them on the wall.
  
• Combat Devices will no longer activate whilst holding a throwable or consumable, preventing the most frequent form of misfires.
  
• Fixed part of a glitch where players could use jump downs to bypass the anti-cheat and hide in walls.
  
• Added in a failsafe that teleports Companion AI down if they manage to get stuck on a jump down, such as the one found in the end battle of Union Tower.
  
• Removed the ineligibility check when starting Horde at a later round. Players can now unlock Floppies as soon as they start, even when starting at wave 15, 30 or 45.
  
• Updated all localization for Ammo to now be an abstraction; Yellow / Blue / Green / Red instead of 7.62 / 9mm / .44 / 12g to ensure we can keep adding weapons without having to match the caliber.
  
• Improved the tracer visual for all weapons, furthermore added some slight visual feedback to the tracer whenever you shoot a Critical Shot!
  
• Deprecated the Slam Reload feature entirely after repeated feedback. Players will no longer be able to smash their slides & bolts.
  
• It will now be harder to stay away from certain enemies, as they will switch targets when they cannot reach the targeted player in adequate time.
