Update 0.8.4 is Live! Hazmat Calls, New Fires, and New 2nd Piece Squad Unit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-JijP_ajnE
0.8.4 is live and introduces Hazmat calls for the first time to EmergeNYC. Squad now has a 2nd piece which is necessary for every hazmat call to respond with Squad 252. A mock Hazmat scene has been added to the fire academy as a scenario you can spawn. Watch the video above to learn how handle a hazmat call and what steps you need to take before and after handling the situation. An update on Montgomery County & Manhattan. They will be coming back together in the next update up to date with new emergencies and the new game mechanics. Hope everyone enjoys and remember to leave feedback regarding bugs and suggestions on ways we could improve the Hazmat game mechanics. There's always room for improvement!
0.8.3T is live!
0.8.3T

Update 0.8.3S is Live! 9 New Brooklyn Companies & MP Servers are back up!
Update 0.8.3S is live and fixes an issue where the multiplayer servers were down. As most of you know I moved to NYC in the beginning of June and have been getting settled in and moved in hence the lack of patches in July. I’m about 85% done with getting Manhattan up to date and back in the game. We are adding new mechanics, interiors, and emergencies to the game as well as bug fixes.
Our texture artist Tommy has been hard at work and has created some exceptional skins for some other real life Brooklyn companies that surround the Brooklyn map area which we MAY expand in the future. For now these 8 new companies can be used as relocations, second alarm units, etc. I’ve chosen to include these companies in this patch while we finish up Manhattan. Thank you all for your patience!
