Feedback the community provided told us that players sometimes felt they picked the wrong vehicle with the initial scrap we provide and were stuck with that vehicle until they made enough scraps to buy a new one. We're aware this is far from the ideal way to start out in KEO. So this week we've changed how players acquire the 3 starter vehicles (and also switched up which vehicles are considered starters).
So now, all players start off with Stinger, and by playing a set amount of matches, will unlock the other two starters - Deviser and Theox (replacing Panther as a starter). We also tweaked the level requirement/scrap price for some of the other vehicles.
Existing players will be automatically granted the vehicles they're missing provided they already have the number of matches needed to unlock the vehicle.

You spoke and we listened. Looks like we confused things with the in-game store having 2 currencies, SCRAPS and KREDS. So, for now, weโre getting rid of KREDS! Donโt worry anyone with KREDS will have them converted to SCRAPS at quite a favorable rate! (Please contact us if you have any issues with this and weโll sort it out ASAP). This means that EVERYTHING in the store can now be earned and unlocked using SCRAPS. Oh, and weโve tweaked the SCRAP earn rate as it was, wellโฆ a bit off, to say the least! Now you donโt have to spend a penny/cent/yuan to get anything else โ just play the game! Weโre just 6 guys & girls trying to make a fun game, we know we havenโt got it right just yet, but bear with us as we add in your feedback โ we want to make this a game you want to play!

This week we are adding a heavy requested feature: "THE PARTY MODE"๐ซ
Now players can invite their friends to a party, making it easier to queue in the public matchmaking with your friends! After everyone joins the party, the party leader just needs to jump into the queue and you're ready to go!
How does it work?
You create a party from the bottom right corner in the main screen of the game
You invite your friends to the party
You queue into the game (only the leader can queue up)

This week we are giving you some new Lights for your vehicles!๐ก
Ocellus Lite - The Ocellus Lite are a refurbished Ocellus lights with a more copmpact design. But don't let the small size fool you, these are just as powerful as the original
Jeepers Peepers - Use these beautiful binocular headlights to bird watch. Or opponent watch. But the birds are prettier honestly. Reflektor - These lights could illuminate an Army. Not the military kind though.
