| |
| - | == New stuff ==
| |
| - | * [[Job C2]] has been remade into an all-new mission, with new characters and objectives.
| |
| - | * New type of object in the Mazes: [[Containers]]. The Mazes' equivalent of treasure chests... MazeWorld style, of course.
| |
| - | ** New type of [[Key item]], the description of which will be linked on the Containers page: '''Lockpicking kit''', which enables the [[Lockpicking]] ability.
| |
| - | ** New type of [[Key item]], the description of which will be linked on the Containers page: '''Keys'''.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The additions changed the total roomstyle count to '''430''', and the total event count to '''6163'''.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == Changes and fixes ==
| |
| - | * [[Parallar]] coins are no longer made out of gold, but out of aircraft aluminium.
| |
| - | * All belt-fed firearms are now managed similarly to non-belt-fed firearms; box and belt links are automatically collected after firing, and it is possible to refill a belt with loose ammunition as well as remove ammo from belts, just like one would with a normal magazine. As a way of balancing it, ammo belt weight system has been slightly modified, and belts are now slightly more expensive to compensate for their ease of use. The cost now includes the box itself and the belt links.
| |
| - | * Ammunition belt size changed for the [[TsNIITochMash PKP Pecheneg]], the [[Saco Defense M60]] and the [[FN Minimi]] - they are now respectively 100, 100 and 200 rounds (instead of respectively 200, 200 and 100)
| |
| - | * The [[TsNIITochMash PKP Pecheneg]]'s spare weight is now '''22 units''' instead of being unsparable.
| |
| - | * Pump-action and lever-action firearms now allow '''5 shots per turn max''' instead of 10.
| |
| - | * Both the [[Kalashnikov AKMSU|AKMSU]]'s and the [[Kalashnikov AKS-47U|AKS-74U]]'s spare weights have been changed to '''9''' units, in lieu of 14.
| |
| - | * The [[AMC Auto Mag]]'s magazine capacity is now correctly listed as '''7+1'''.
| |
| - | * The [[Benelli M4 Super 90]] is now correctly described in the game files as a semi-automatic shotgun.
| |
| - | * The [[Heckler ＆ Koch G36C]] and the [[SIG Sauer SG552]] have been moved to '''Class 2'''. All relevant changes have been made.
| |
| - | * Dual-wielding and carrying a Class TW weapon are now possible without the [[Bionic Implant 11|Akimbo Mind]] or [[Bionic Implant 21|Akimbo Master]] bionic implants - without those implants however, dual-wielding now has a flat FT+2 malus and prevents the use of foregrips.
| |
| - | * Added rules on dual-wielding and alternate weapon holding.
| |
| - | * The [[Colt 9mm SMG]]'s weight has been increased, from 5 to '''9'''. It is also now correctly listed as having the new style UGL mount, allowing it to mount the M203A1 UGL and the Masterkey USG.
| |
| - | * The [[Colt AR-15A2]]'s model was modified - previously it was a Government Carbine AR6520, it is now an HBAR R6550. As such, it now has a fixed stock and 20 inch barrel, and a weight of '''22''' units (previously 14). It is also correctly listed as having the OLD style UGL mount, allowing it to mount the M203 UGL.
| |
| - | * Several explosives have been significantly buffed, to respond to complaints about their relative ineffectiveness.
| |
| - | * The [[General Motors M3 'Grease Gun']] and the [[MAT-49]] are now correctly listed as capable of automatic fire only, instead of being select-fire (semi and auto).
| |
| - | * Shrine gifts given by the gods is now controlled by a new EliasBot command: '''@Godgifts'''. They are pre-determined and randomly rolled.
| |
| - | * Missing event in the event list fixed - the total event count is now correctly displayed as '''6139'''.
| |
| - | * Description of [[Heroin]] in the game files now correctly lists "FT+2" instead of the erroneous "FT+4".
| |
| - | * The [[Winchester Model 1887]] is now correctly listed as a sawn-off shotgun.
| |
| - | * The [[TsNIITochMash PKP Pecheneg]]'s bipod is now listed as integrated rather than standard.
| |
| - | * The Browning BDA has been replaced by the famous and classic [[FN Browning Hi-Power|Hi-Power]]. All relevant changes have been made as well.
| |
| - | * [[Beretta 93R]] now correctly feed '''Beretta 92 series''' mags instead of proprietary mags. As such, Beretta 93R magazines have been removed from the game.
| |
| - | * To compensate and keep the amount of events the same, a new type of magazine has been introduced: the '''STANAG 60-round casket magazine''', and will fit in all STANAG-compatible firearms.

| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Meta changes ===
| |
| - | Due to the inclusion of new variety of grenades for grenade launchers, caliber names for those grenades will change and include sub-variations, much like [[12 gauge]] and its individual variants.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | * 40x46mm grenade becomes [[40mm NATO grenade]]
| |
| - | * VOG-25 becomes [[40mm caseless grenade]]
| |
| - | * VGM-93 becomes [[43mm VGM-93 grenade]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === New weapons ===
| |
| - | As always, new weapons to add to the ever-growing list, in order to further refine variety.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | * [[BMS Milcam HB]], Class 1, Bolt-action rifle, [[5.56x45mm NATO]] and [[List of STANAG-compatible weapons|STANAG compatible]]
| |
| - | * [[Hawk Engineering Company MM-1]], Class 1, Grenade launcher, [[40mm NATO grenade]]

| |
| - |
| |
| - | === New ammunition types ===
| |
| - | As noted above in the Meta changes, certain calibers will receive new types of ammunition, and existing ones will be renamed.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | ===== 40mm NATO grenades =====
| |
| - | Existing [[40x46mm grenade]] becomes [[M386 HE]].
| |
| - |
| |
| - | New types of ammunition introduced:
| |
| - | * [[M576 buckshot]] - Fires 20 pellets of #3 buckshot, which is smaller than 12 gauge #00 [[buckshot]]. Although each pellet is individually less powerful than double-aught, there are far more pellets and a potential to cause more damage.
| |
| - | * [[M651 tear gas]] - Similar to the [[M7A3]] hand grenade, but in a 40mm NATO grenade.
| |
| - | * [[M715 smoke]] - Similar to the [[M18]] hand grenade, but in a 40mm NATO grenade.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | ===== 40mm caseless grenades =====
| |
| - | Existing [[VOG-25]] becomes [[VOG-25 HE]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - | New types of ammunition introduced:
| |
| - | * [[VOG-25P jumping grenade]] - Is similar to regular VOG-25, but has an additional, smaller charge which causes the grenade to bounce or seem to "jump" before exploding, resulting in an airburst explosion. This grenade '''has the ability to bypass cover''' and hit targets behind as if cover was never there.
| |
| - | * [[Gvozd tear gas]] - Similar to the [[M7A3]] hand grenade, but in a 40mm caseless grenade.
| |
| - | * [[GRD-100 smoke]] - Similar to the [[M18]] hand grenade, but in a 40mm caseless grenade.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | ===== 43mm VGM-93 grenades =====
| |
| - | Existing [[VGM-93]] becomes [[VGM-93.100 HEI]].
| |
| - |
| |
| - | New types of ammunition introduced:
| |
| - | * [[VGM-93.200 tear gas]] - Similar to the [[M7A3]] hand grenade, but in a 43mm grenade.
| |
| - | * [[VGM-93.300 smoke]] - Similar to the [[M18]] hand grenade, but in a 43mm grenade.
| |
| - | * [[VGM-93.400 flashbang]] - Similar to the [[M84]] hand grenade, but in a 43mm grenade.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | ===== [[12 gauge belted]] =====
| |
| - | Declined in two versions: the existing one is renamed [[CAWS buckshot]].
| |
| - | A second, new one, will be introduced as the [[CAWS saboted slug]], and is the CAWS equivalent to the [[12 gauge]] [[slug]].
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === New encounters ===
| |
| - | * The [[Maze Guard|SRT Guard]] (Special Response Team), a type of Maze Guard with [[Maze Soldier]] style weaponry which would work as the Mazes' SWAT equivalent. It would be the hierarchic superior of Guard Sergeants, but still be under the Guard Chief.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Other new features ===
| |
| - | * '''Vault rooms''' can now lead to a new shop type: the [[Bank]]. The vaults in vault rooms have also been made impenetrable and can no longer be opened by hacking a keypad; as said keypad has now disappeared. Vaults may only be operated by a banker, under the fingerprint/heartbeat sensor system already in use in hiring bureaus.
| |
| - | * A new [[Abilities|ability]]: [[Waiting]] in rooms in order to wait for possible encounters to come in the room the contestant is currently in. A standard 2d6 roll is prompted, and depending on the roll result, the roomstyle, and the contestant's [[Wanted Level]], varying types of encounters can come in. The ability can be triggered only once per room, but has no cooldown period.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | ===== Banks =====
| |
| - | * Banks are a brand new shop type, tied to the vault room roomstyle. They are not scripted.
| |
| - | * A contestant can open a bank account in one.
| |
| - | * A contestant can deposit and withdraw money from their account, as well as move money from and/or to shop credits, in the shop type of their choice, and even if they never previously had credit in the shop before. This allows for better flow of the contestant's money and increases the degree of management of their wealth.
| |
| - | * A contestant can also deposit and withdraw objects and valuables, which are then taken to a vault and kept.
| |
| - | * No withdrawal fees, no item keeping fees, and no taxes.
| |
| - | * Bank services can be partially accessed over the phone using the [[Telephone network|appropriate phone number]], so that a contestant can manage their money from anywhere. However, evidently, it doesn't make item management possible.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | * Contestants can use some of the money they have on their account to transfer it to another Mazes resident's account. This can be used, for example, to officially hire someone, and is now the preferred way over simply handing cash in person.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Changes in gameplay mechanics ===
| |
| - | * Minor gameplay mechanic change: an expansion of the [[cover|cover taking]] system, which allows a contestant to open fire WHILE taking cover, but with a FT+2 malus. Shooting while taking cover evidently nulls [[stealth shot]] as well. A possible further expansion of this mechanic may include the ability to shoot in the same way while trying to escape a room, also with the FT+2 malus. (Again this needs testing to see if the malus is adequate)
| |
| - | * [[Weapon accessory|Silencers]] will lose their FT-1 ability, and will only be useful for stealth.
