Update No2 Released!
Update No2 for LA Cops is now available on Steam Early Access
Hi Everyone, hope you're all ready for the weekend!
We've had lots of excellent feedback on the game from players, reviewers and professional testers and we've been working exceptionally hard to deliver a big update for LA Cops.
When is it available today! If you have LA Cops installed and restart Steam you should find it downloads automatically.
Amongst the many features we've been working on the main additions are as follows:
Summon Cop Feature
With a click of the middle mouse button your partner will move to where you have your cursor. This is great for busting in a room with both cops at the same time and taking out thugs in a blaze of gunfighting glory!
Tutorial Level
This level is an introduction to the game and how to play
Lvl3 - Bauhaus
Save wealthy Tycoon - Max Thrace from a gang on thugs intent on stealing his fortune. Unfortunately for Max, he's broke. Better get in there and save his neck!
Lvl4 - Mansion
A drugs bust operation set in a burnt out Mansion
Cop Voice Overs
We have the first batch of in game Cop VO for Murphy, Borland and Williams implemented. They're sassy one liners will put those criminals in line!
Enemy VO
Enemies react with dumb one liners about how they're going to do you in. Prove them wrong with a bullet or two.
Cutscenes 4&5
The in game soap opera story is beginning to take form. Will Kowalski come to terms with working with Murphy? And what is Teddy Green up to that has Katsuo so concerned?
UI Overhaul
As well as the above we've made another pass on the User Interface to make it more intuitive and responsive. Please note we're aware of the issues with the joypad interactions in the main menu and the tutorial level and are preparing a fix for them to be released real soon.
Plus a miriad of polish and fixes to improve the gameplay which is simply too long to list here. The done list we keep track of is many screens long.
We hope you'll enjoy the update this weekend and do keep sending us your feedback.
Your insights really are making a difference to the quality of the game and we hope you can see us listening, acting on and implementing your ideas in each game update.
There's lots more content, features and news to come so please keep helping us spread the word, till next time.
