Patch Notes 01/10/2021

1. We noticed that many players find it difficult to associate information about the fighters displayed in the top left corner of the screen with specific fighters on the map. Now in battle near a fighter's HP bar, the icon of his base class and action points will be duplicated
   
2. We made a pop-up hint showing the calculation of the current hit rate when aiming. The influence of weapons (including ammo and upgrade modules), fighter skills, target defense (including target skills, target bonuses from cover and equipment), distance effects (including penalties for close range shooting for snipers and bonuses for shooting at point blank range for others are shown separately) classes and effects (injury, disorientation, etc.)
   
3. In all types of PvP battles, the turn timer has been stopped when moving the fighters of the current player. While the fighter is moving, following the player's order, the turn time stops. Perhaps in the future we'll also introduce this system into some long animations for character skills.
   
4. The rewards for certain contracts and types of activity have been temporarily increased:
   Rating PvP - 2500 (previously was 1500)
   PvP+ - 2500 (previously was 1500)
   Coop - 850 (previously was 600)
   Coop Expert - 1500 (previously was 1000)
   2x2 - 2000 (previously was 750)
   PvE Expert - 1000 (previously was 850)
   
5. Sniper rifles: close range penalty reduced by 40%
   
6. Smoke: Smoke evasion bonus no longer stacks with cover bonus as it did before. Before this patch, the constant use of smoke in PvP at high levels was almost imperative for a successful game. While it conceived in order to create covers where there are none. For breaking through defenses, moving through open areas and similar tactical tasks
   
7. Changes in the skills of the Heavy class:
   
   
   
   • Skill "Perfect hit": now when using heavy weapons, the chance of a critical hit increases by 10% (previously was 5%)
     
   • Skill "Armor adjustment": now when using a heavy or power armor suit, armor is increased by 3 (previously was 2)
     
   • Skill "Power armor": now when using a power armor suit, armor is increased by 3 (previously was 2)

9. Changes in the skills of the Support class:
   
   
   
   • The "Smoke screen 2" skill has been changed. Now only the first use of smoke grenades per turn doesn't require AP (previously when throwing a smoke grenade it didn't require AP)

    • Skill "Direct fire": a shot from a grenade launcher at a target in line of sight with an increased distance by 4 cells and increased by 3 damage (previously was 2 damage)
      
    
    
11. Changes in the skills of the Commando class:
    
    
    
    • Skill "Light armor expert": now increases resistance to bleeding, burning, poisoning and disorientation by 25% (previously was 10%)
      
    • Skill "Merge with terrain": now behind a cover stealth increases by 3 cells (previously was 4)
      
    
    
12. Changes in the skills of the Scout class:

13. The tutorial was supplemented with several windows based on the results of the analysis of player reviews
    
14. When choosing the mission difficulty, the choice is remembered until the end of the current game session
    
15. When you start searching for an enemy in any kind of PvP, the check-box is reset, allowing the game matchmaking the opponent without taking into account the strength of the squad and the rating. Now you have to install it by hand every time

    Changes in the rating battles rules:

1. We brought the PvP mechanics to the state it were intended to be. We'll continue to actively improve the game in this direction, but now we boldly invite everyone who hasn't entered PvP for a long time (in any of its types in the game: PvP 1x1, Rating battles, PvP+ with mobs on the map). What has been done most important in this sphere:
   
   
   
   
   • Added "unmasking actions" mechanics. If the enemy attacks your operative, being out of visibility/detection of your fighters, he will unmask himself and illuminate with a red silhouette until the end of your next turn. Thus, the problem of "battles with the fog of war" has been solved, when the enemy who has discovered you and has a specially leveled up scout shoots your squad, while remaining invisible to your operatives.
     
   • A serious rebalancing of weapons, armor and characteristics of fighters has been carried out. More leveled up fighters became cooler, and cool weapons and armor became even cooler.
     
   • Added chat and short message menu in battle. Also, the chat now includes all the subtitles of the story dialogs, which were previously shown in bubbles above the heads of the fighters and often found themselves behind the scenes or disappeared too quickly. For co-op added map-tagged ally requests using the same chat mechanism. Read more about this in the latest Patch Notes
     
   • Added a cooperative mode, where together with a partner you can fight against mobs. Note that now only with a random partner. We are still testing this mode and in the next updates we'll make it possible to invite specific friends to the cooperative.
     
   • Damage caused by negative effects is shown at the beginning of the turn with the camera focusing on each unit. Thus the problem of the "suddenly died squad" was solved, when it was possible not to notice until the last moment that half of the squad had already been killed somewhere behind the scenes, for example, with toxic gas.
     
   
   
2. Changed cameras and some character animations. Visually is more enjoyable to play.
   
3. Optimization. Here we are still far from the final version, as we see it. But a number of fixes have already been made, as a result of which playing on non-top configurations has become much more comfortable.
   
4. Many small but pleasant UI changes, bug fixes, improved application stability, etc.
   

1. Radical change in the equipment for operatives interface and in work with the inventory in general.
   
2. Upgraded base buildings will give significant bonuses in battle. Start upgrading your base now 😊
   
3. Additional battle modes (perhaps 2x2 PvP, perhaps additional types of PvE contracts, which vary in terms of mission objectives and battle tactics, we are still testing and haven't decided exactly).
   
4. The weapon will give special passive skills. More top-end guns will also appear. However, this will impose a limit on the rank of an operative on the carrying of top weapons.
   
5. New opponents and continuation of the story campaign.
   
6. Further graphics optimization.
   
7. Refinement of the UI to a conditionally final state. We've accumulated a number of changes based on the results of playtests and your feedback.
   
8. Friends system with the help of which it'll be possible to invite friends to join the battle in co-op and PvP.
   
9. Reducing the duration of the Rating battles season to 1 month from the next season.
   

• Added "unmasking actions" mechanism. Now, when taking actions that can cause damage to your operatives, an enemy that is out of the range of detection/visibility of your fighters will be displayed in a red silhouette until the end of your next turn
  
• Added new mission loading screens that will tell you about the objects and alien technologies that you'll meet in the story campaign (including the unpublished continuation of the story, the missions of which are currently in testing)
  
• Added new PvP contract Liquidation temporarily to the map. The matchmaking in it is carried out according to the strength of the squad (as in PvP+), but at the same time there are no additional enemies as mobs (as in PvP+), and victories/defeats don't affect the Rating and don't lead to the possible death of operatives (as in rating PvP)
  
• Added ammo to the Syndicate shop
  
• Changed the price of grenades in the Syndicate shop
  
• Fixed UI freezes after integrating new reversal animations when aiming. If you see a freeze in the UI, please send us a bug report using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+B in the game right in the place where you face the problem
  
• Implemented destruction of small trees
  
• Made optimization of grenades effects
  
• Changed chat keys:
  
  
  
  1. The field for entering messages for the allied squad changed from LShift to Ctrl + Enter
     
  2. Duplicated chat open button on ~ (Tilde)
     
  3. Duplicated button for the messages input field to the allied squad on Ctrl + ~
     
  
  
• Added sound when receiving chat messages
  
• Minor bug fixes on maps
