It's been quite a while since Clownfield received an update and there is a reason for that, but I would rather not get into it and focus on this update instead. If you have a question, I can clarify it for you in our discord.
Now, this update brings unreleased content from Clownfield (such as demo and testing levels for what never saw a public light). This content update includes:
Demo Helicopter
Demo Land Vehicles
Demo Tornado Physics
Unreleased music (in game's directory > Music)
New achievement
Fixed Discord Link in chat + added main menu button
M3 shotgun can now rapid fire (as per request on discord)
M3 shotgun now shoots explosive rounds (you heard that right)
Increased grenade launcher damage radius
Reduced camera-shake from explosions (for all explosive weapons)
Known bug:
Sometimes M3 Shotgun explosive rounds do not deal any if not proper damage in ClownZ to clown zombies. I'll revisit this bug sometimes in the future.
I cannot believe that today marks the first anniversary of Clownfield 2042. Exactly a year ago we have launched Clownfield 2042 on Steam and began our adventure of a true all-out-clownfare experience.
Ever since, we've released numerous amounts of patches, improvements, updates and added new content that shaped Clownfield the way it is today. I am very thankful for the community we've build and feedback we have gathered down the road that led to Clownfield's success.
I just wanted to thank everyone who participated in Clownfield's journey from the bottom of my heart, and my little team that I was able to build throughout time. It all started with one person, and then led to a community of leaders who were able to join the team.
For our anniversary, we've put together an update for everyone to enjoy and appreciate. We've improved player handling and made it feel more robust. We have introduced some QoL updates to make CF2042's experience much smoother, added variety of things to make user interface more enjoyable and understanding; and most importantly added a new map ("North Pole") for this holiday season.
For the full update-log, check out config.ini in game's directory.
That being said, let's raise a glass for Clownfield 2042 and another year of its journey in 2023! Thanks again everyone, hope you guys are enjoying your holidays and welcoming the New Year in a good company of friends and/or family.
As a part of our anniversary, Clownfield is going on 50% sale starting at 6:00 am PST.

Behold, a love letter to Clownfield fans...
No-clowns,
Behold, a love letter to Clownfield fans... Welcome to the new era of Clown Warfare, the Clown of Duty.
Clown of Duty is a medium-scale boots on the ground multiplayer first-person shooter emphasizing quick combat through coordination, tactics and planning. Head on alone or team up with your friends in a battle against opposite forces. Pick your side, play as Spetsnaz or Delta Force member and overcome the battlefield.
Experience the fast-paced contact with enemy, beautifully hand-crafted locations, gunsmithing, player customization and more - only in Clown of Duty!
Watch the reveal trailer of Clown of Duty at http://clownofduty.com/
Stamina - no more jumping around (affects jumping only)
Player tag view decrease (mp)
Proper names for weapon attachments (finally)
Launch improvements
New map: Forsaken (deserted ship map)
Tornado (experimental) on Forsaken map only
Minor player/map fixes & code improvements
I meant to release this update weeks ago but got caught up working on other projects yet had to finalize a few things to push this. That being said, this update is finally out.
Update 4.0 is finally live and here are the changes:
New map: The Dust 2 (Sequel to Discount Dust map)
New game mode: Elimination (Round win limit at 5 & two teams competing w/ each other)
New ClownZ map: Ground Zero Extended (Experimental)
New: Day & Night Cycle (Only in ClownZ > Ground Zero Extended)
Security Improvements
The Dust 2 is carefully handcrafted map by our single level designer, a sequel to one of our first original maps "Discount Dust". You won't be disappointed and you're going to keep asking for "more". New game mode has also been added to compete with current Team Deathmatch mode - the Elimination. Play with your teammates against an opposite team, no respawns between deaths - every move counts. (Currently available in The Dust 2 only).
ClownZ also haven't been left alone. We are introducing you an extended map of original Ground Zero map. It's not only huge and beautiful, but it also includes an experimental system which we're trying to improve upon. Players spawn in different zones, away from each other. You cannot purchase weapons no more, but rather have to loot buildings and find them; but don't you worry, you're still going to be able to spend your ClownZ points on re-supplying (ammo boxes) and as well as using mystery boxes.
We're also introducing a day & night cycle to ClownZ. Why not enjoy ClownZ in much better environment and atmosphere?
There are plans ahead of Clownfield mechanics, ClownZ game mode and its future. Stay tuned by joining our growing Discord Community:
Our next title is here and should be out for its official release on June 28th. Introducing to you all ~ Clown For Speed. It is your chance to immerse yourself in the real world of ultimate drifting experience. Pick your perfect ride and get ready to burn some tires!
Oh, and by the way, I'm currently running closed beta for it, so if you'd like to participate, join our Discord: https://discord.gg/rnSAmRYNme and check out #closed-beta channel.
Thanks everyone!
Season 1: Zero Effort Available Now
Hey folks! With Season One now out and available to play, I sat down with Senior Producer Clown McKlowski, and Producers John Ligma and Alix Sugma, to share some insight into the work we’ve done to bring this new update to life.
We streamed this live earlier today, but in case you missed it, you can watch it here.
What’s new in Season 1?
New Map: Exposed
Head to Canadian Pacific Northwest Port and traverse the extreme horizontal terrain. Grenade-to-gernade combat as well as tight and moist infantry fights await.
On this part of the map, you and your team need to seize control of a contested military checkpoint in Domination Mode. Once you’ve secured the area, hold and defend until the enemy team loses all tickets.
New Character: Adult Hitler
A true warfare expert. Adult Hitler was born on Mars but later on migrated to the earth in his early 20s to volunteer and help defend the world from illegal aliens.
New Weapon: MK18 (Unlocks at level 4)
MK18 packs a 40 round magazine filled with 5.56x45mm ammunition. It's magazine capacity and fast fire rate makes this weapon an ultimate killer. This makes this assault rifle the deadliest rifle on the Clownfield.
New Non-Lethal Gadget: 40LMTS Smoke Grenade Launcher (Unlocks at level 3)
40LMTS Smoke Grenade Launcher fires a canister that forms a large smoke wall on impact. Ideal for obscuring enemy or just trying to be annoying player for the rest of the lobby.
New Air Vehicles: Attack Helicopter & Little Bird on Exposed Map only.
No, you can't fly them, but you can look at them. Isn't that enough!? Just play pretend when you're passing them on foot by making helicopter noises with your mouth. It works just as good.
As always, thanks everyone for your support. Keep in mind that since this season took about 6 months to make, next season would take just as much if not longer.
Clownfield 2042 is also on 20% sale right now, get your clown friends on and turn them into No-Clowns today!
<*> Decreased zombies alive at once from 69 to 40 <*> Increased time between waves <*> Zombie Spawn improvements <*> ClownZ network improvements
New features:
<*> Your equipped weapon drops when picking another weapon from the ground <*> Increased slots from 16 to 32 only in Domination mode <*> New secret achievement which can be unlocked on one of the maps in the specific place
Maybe more, it's getting pretty late in here.
Oh, and by the way, join our discord if you haven't already:
It's been a journey since Clownfield made its debut on December 31, 2021. We've had our ups and downs just like any other middle-aged man would, but that's nothing when there are things we can do to make it better.
Ahem. Now that we made our money, it's time to forget about Clownfield 2042 and move towards another cash-grabbing title. That's how we do it in the 21st century. Money first, gameplay (maybe) later.
Our team has been listening to your feedback since day one (although we could care less of what you think) and we've made changes (we really haven't) to reflect your feedback and make Clownfield the next-gen experience.
Our next Clownfield experience is coming later this year. Preorders are soon to be available on all available platforms. Remember, when you give us your money before you get your hands on our product, we will keep doing what we've been doing; and so far, it's been working!

If you haven't been able to figure it out by now, all of this was sarcasm. On a real note, next update is nearly around the corner. Join our discord:https://discord.gg/clownfield
Achievement Integration
No-clowns,
Achievement integration is finally complete. I've also added a couple more achievements to the list. Some minor improvements (sync issue between power-ups) were made for the ClownZ mode as well.
