| |
| - | *Many explosives, primarily hand grenades and rocket launchers, no longer have their critical failure type listed as "'''Catastrophic'''" (which would affect the user as though they were themselves hit directly by those weapons). They are now "'''Dud round'''". This was done in order to make the use of those weapons less risky and more reliable in general.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | *The [[Howa Type 89]] is no longer compatible with the M203A1 (conflicts with the integral bipod).
| |
| - |
| |
| - | * The way random [[firearm maintenance]] stats are rolled for firearms in the game now depends on where they have been found, instead of being the same roll for every situation.
| |
| - | ** The default roll is '''2#1d100''' and applies for all weapons found at random (on the floor, etc.) without an owner. These weapons may have condition (DV) and cleanliness (RV) stats anywhere between 1 and 100%.
| |
| - | ** [[Startgame]] weapons use the following roll: '''2#2d50/2+49'''.
| |
| - | ** Weapons found in the inventory of an encounter: '''2#1d100+24'''.
| |
| - | ** Weapons found in the hands of encounters during [[Missions]] and in [[Kennels]]: '''2#1d100+49'''.
| |
| - | ** All weapons found in shops are '''always nearly brand new''' (99% in both stats).
| |
| - | ** Weapons carried by the [[Game Masters]], Colonel [[Thomas Wight]], and any secret event encounter, are also '''always near-brand new'''.

| - | = Version 2.5 "Extended cookie dough edition" changes =
| |
| - | '''This is not MazeWorld 2.6 - Merely a big bag of additions to 2.5'''; that's because I do not want 2.5 to stop after 2 games. It would be sad, and I felt I didn't work as much on 2.5 as I wanted to.<br/>
| |
| - | So, I will call it '''2.5 extended cookie dough edition'''. To hell with it. (more seriously, treat it as post-2.5 additions.)
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Gameplay mechanics change ===
| |
| - | '''Major gameplay change''': 2d6 rolls to be tied per bullet fired rather than attack string
| |
| - | * Using EliasBot, roll X#2d6 where X is the amount of bullets one wants to fire (EliasBot can support a maximum of 20, just roll multiple times for any amount higher than 20)
| |
| - | * Valid for all fire modes, except Burst Mode - roll a 2d6 ''per burst'' instead
| |
| - | * [[Recoil]] system is unchanged - roll strings will simply be grouped to make recoil checks
| |
| - | * A 2 anywhere in the roll string ''cancels all subsequent rolls'', as a malfunction occurs then.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Mushrooms ===
| |
| - | A new type of consumables: [[Mushroom|Mushrooms]]
| |
| - | * Neither food nor medical aid, but have the properties of both, each weighing 0.1 unit per item.
| |
| - | * Provide some nutrition, many of them provide medicinal(-like) effects, good or bad.
| |
| - | * Require identification; when unidentified, they are differentiated by color and smell.
| |
| - | * Will be found in the inventories of certain creatures, or at random, with increased chances in outside areas.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | === Reform of the [[Crafting]] system ===
| |
| - | * Removal of many blueprints, reduction of the total amount of blueprints to '''27'''
| |
| - | * Abandonment of the metal/plastic/wood system - crafting shall now follow the "gather items, assemble them" model.
| |
| - | ** Certain existing blueprints will see their recipes changed to adapt to the new model.
| |
| - | ** New crafting-relevant items to serve as extra ingredients.
| |
| - | ** Check the updated [[List of blueprints]] for more information.
| |
| - | ** New crafting-only weapon: [[Pen gun]], a Class 5 Short weapon.
| |
| - | ** [[Workshop|Workshops]] will now sell 4 random blueprints and 4 random crafting-relevant items. They will no longer sell crafting materials nor any of the old blueprints since they will cease existing.
| |
| - | * Now, all 27 blueprints are relevant for the [[Conducts|Completionist conduct]]; all crafting items must be made once each at least.
| |
| - | * The TURRETS crate no longer exists, it has been replaced with the [[COOKIES crate]].
| |
| - | * The [[CRAFT-1 crate]], [[CRAFT-2 crate]], [[CRAFT-3 crate]] have all had their contents replaced to suit the new system.

| |
| - |
| |
| - | = Post-2.5 changes =
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == Fixes ==
| |
| - | * The [[Taurus Raging Bull M444]] now correctly has an '''integrated muzzle brake''' instead of no standard accessory.
| |
| - | * Lifted dual wielding restrictions on the [[Smith ＆ Wesson Model 500]] and the [[Hellsing Arms .454 Casull 'Joshua']]; they can be dual wielded like other Class 3 weapons from now on.
| |
| - | * [[.22 Long Rifle]] damage table was modified: '''21/21/11 6/1/0/0 LDV-1'''.
| |
| - | * [[.32 ACP]] damage table was modified: '''23/22/16 8/1/0/0 LDV+0'''. It is no longer the weakest firearm cartridge of the game; that title now belongs to .22 Long Rifle.
| |
| - | * Cartridge holders are no longer treated like magazines tied to a single weapon, and can now be used to reload other single-action revolvers (if the calibers match, of course) just as quickly, even if the size of the holder doesn't match the weapon's capacity.
| |
| - | * Certain [[Customs:Ammunition|ammunition types]] (+P, +P+, +P++, TPD, XPD, EAP and XAP) now correctly cause accelerated [[Firearm maintenance|durability and reliability loss]] to the firearms shooting them.
| |
| - | ** +P, TPD and EAP : -2 DV/RV points per shot
| |
| - | ** +P+, XPD and XAP: -4 DV/RV points per shot
| |
| - | ** +P++: -8 DV/RV points per shot
| |
| - | * The '''Sodium nitrite antidote''' changed names, and became the [[Universal antidote]], to reflect its ability to counter all forms of poisoning. Effects are unchanged.
| |
| - | * The [[Springfield M14]] can no longer mount the M84 scope, but it may now accept the Telescopic sight (5-15x) and the Aimpoint CompM2 reflex sight.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == Additions ==
| |
| - | * A new type of [[cover]]: the '''Sandbag nest'''. 64 HP, LDV-3.
| |
| - | * The [[Scope mode]] ability received an extension, called '''Surgical strike''', which works in the following way. See article for more details.
| |
| - | * [[Secondary effect#Mind and psyche|Steroid rage]] now has an additional effect. While the effect lasts, any melee attacks that successfully hit the target are treated as critical successes, with the according [[IRC Bots|@critwin]] effects being applied.
| |
| - | * The [[Startgame]] questions were modified:
| |
| - | ** Many of the answers now give out different rewards.
| |
| - | ** Several questions and their answers were modified, certain answers were re-written, and one question was removed.
| |
| - | * [[Bank|Banks]] are now a scripted event, and will appear every 50 rooms.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | = 2.5 changes =
| |
| - | Total event count: '''6321''' (+158)
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == New feature: Limb damage system ==
| |
| - | The [[limb damage]] system introduces a new statistic, and a new way to hurt and be hurt during combat. Every limb of the body is given health points, and as the [[contestant]] (and his/her [[Ally join|allies]] and [[Encounters|enemies]]) progress and battle, they may get hurt, and will suffer ailments from their injuries if they aren't treated.
| |
| - | *This system introduces new medical aids (the [[First Aid Kit]] '''(FAK)''' and the [[Field Surgery Kit]] '''(FSK)'''), a new vital statistic, the '''Limb Damage Value''' (or '''LDV''') and its modifiers, which affect the Limb Damage Roll, conducted every time someone gets hurt.
| |
| - | *The limb damage system only applies to humans. Humanoid youkai and other creatures are not concerned.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | *A new limb group has been added: Hips.
| |
| - | ** Alongside the new limb damage system, hips can also be [[Broken limb|broken]] and [[Wound|wounded]]. "Hips" is the 11th limb group.
| |
| - | ** NOTE: Despite there are now 11 limb groups, the '''Bleeding percentage''' cannot exceed 100%, for fairly obvious reasons.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | *Several existing [[Bionics|bionic implants]] have been given additional effects, such as increasing the max HP of certain limbs.
| |
| - | *New [[secondary effect|secondary effects]] have been designed to provide appropriate ailments, such as '''Limping''', and '''Crippled'''.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == New feature: Firearm maintenance ==
| |
| - | Another new feature in an effort of improving realism and inventory management, this new feature introduces two new concepts for the contestant's firearms: '''Durability''' and '''Reliability''', which are the focal points of firearm maintenance.
| |
| - | * Durability is a statistic representing the physical integrity of the firearm. The '''Durability Value''', or '''DV''', is a numerical notation which can be either a negative or a positive number - the higher it is, the more durable the weapon.
| |
| - | ** A damaged weapon is less accurate and more fragile. Repairs must be performed in a [[Workshop]] regularly to ensure weapons do not get worn.
| |
| - | * Reliability is a statistic representing the capability of the firearm to function in adverse conditions; specifically, without cleaning. The '''Reliability Value''', or '''RV''', is just like DV; a negative or a positive number; the higher, the longer a weapon can go without being cleaned.
| |
| - | ** A new item is introduced: the '''Gun Cleaning Kit (GCK)''', a 1 unit item which allows contestants to clean their firearms and replenish Reliability points. A single GCK can be used up to 3 times before depletion.
| |
| - | ** Workshops may also naturally clean a firearm after it has been repaired.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | *A player may not know the precise Durability and Reliability scores of their firearms (they are only given a vague descriptor), unless they possess an [[Bionic Implant 24|ICIS]]. The ICIS can give information on a firearm's condition, and give accurate percentage readouts (2 decimal numbers).
| |
| - | ** The GM however, may not disclose the precise numerical values, which would reveal exactly how many shots are left until a firearm breaks or locks up in grime.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | *Speccing now includes firearm maintenance - weapons found randomly, or in the hands of [[Encounters|other beings]], may have variable Durability and Reliability.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | *More information, and full DV/RV tables for every weapon, on this article: [[Firearm maintenance]]
| |
| - |
| |
| - | == New feature: Initiative system ==
| |
| - | The Initiative System was designed out of a desire of changing the dynamics of a typical MazeWorld fight, which favored too unfairly the player, for the contestant would always start first, and what could slow him/her down was easily avoidable.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The Initiative system is based on a new statistic, the '''Initiative Score''', or '''IS''', which is pegged on the weight of weapons, or simply an attributed value for other attacks. The concept behind the Initiative system is simple: the order of passage of encounters every turn depends on how fast they are, and speed is tied to how heavy their weapons (or how slow their attacks) are. In other words, the fastest go first.<br/>
| |
| - | This system no longer rewards the simplistic and exclusive use of highly powerful, but also very heavy weapons, to win fights, but instead puts more emphasis on weapon management and speed, as well as tactics. To put it simply: one must find the right balance between a powerful weapon and a fast weapon, with weapons capable of both being highly sought for.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The way the Initiative system functions is explained in detail [[Gameplay mechanics#Resolution of a combat turn|in this section]].
| |
| - |
| |
