The future of Desert Thunder!
today I want to give a brief look of the future of Desert Thunder. In the upcoming weeks there will be 3 new content updates. Each of them will deliver an new mission. This will make 10 Missions for Desert Thunder after these updates are released.
Desert Thunder: Strike Force will be renamed to Strike Force: Desert Thunder. The reason is not to confuse you, Desert Thunder was developed as a single game in mind. Strike Force will become a series of games and as of that I want to announce:
Desert Thunder will become a stand alone addon with a completly new setting, improved visuals, features and much more.
Some of the features and improvements will also be available as a free update for Desert Thunder! This also does not mean the content updates for Desert Thunder will stop, they are on hold after the 3 upcoming content updates to focus on the new title.
More infos about the upcoming updates and the new Strike Force game will be available soon!

New Feature-Update next week! Introducing difficulties!
there will be a new feature update released next week. This will add the options the choose between several difficulties and change the map zoom.
You can choose between the difficulties:
- Low (100% view distance, 100% Damage, 100% RPM)
- Medium (125% view distance, 125% Damage, 110% RPM)
- High (150% view distance, 150% Damage, 120% RPM)
- Very High (200% view distance, 200% Damage, 130% RPM)
[RPM]
While Low is the current difficulty with (500m view distance, 5HP Damage, 150 RPM) and as you can see the very high difficulty mode is pretty devastating. To give you a better chance to compete against the AI, I added the binoculars with the last update. This allows you to spot enemys over larger distances and plan your attack. To support this even more you can now adjust the zoom of the map, to see marked enemys that are more far away.

Another addition to the game is a basic health system. From now on you can find medikits on all maps which will heal you back to 100%. The medikits are from start on marked on the minimap.

Update politic for Desert Thunder
I want to give you some small informations about the update progress of Desert Thunder.
I'm planning to release more frequent updates/patches with small additions than just a big update all 2-3 month. Content Updates are planned to be released monthly (for free).
The first content update is planned for May 2016 and will introduce a new asset Theme (Urban/City) and a new Singleplayer City map.
A new Feature-Update is scheduled for next week, which will include the new implemented binocular, a reworked menu system that will support more customisation in the future and some minor bug fixes and improvements.
The main goal is to add more content and enhance the gameplay (AI) over the time with these updates.
The changelog for the upcoming update is released with the update itself.
Update 30290 released
- fixed building collision (now it's able to shoot through all windows)
- fixed palm collision
- relocated first person camera to prevent weapon glitching
