Weapon changes

• Laser guns working principle.

The way Gekko and Zeus deal damage has changed. Now they deal maximum damage regardless of how many lasers are installed on a robot.

2. Vityaz: Armor increased by 20%.
3. Leo: Armor increased by 20%.
4. Boa: Armor increased by 20%.

The main reason of these changes is the robots’ unusual set of hardpoints and the lack of efficiency comparing to other robots from the same category.

Daily tasks

Now you are able to complete daily tasks. The successful accomplishment of each task will bring you some Gold. The prize depends on the task’s difficulty level. Due to the new daily tasks the prizes have been changed for getting the following medals:

• Medal of Valor 1^st Class.
• Medal of Valor 2^st Class.
• Medal of Valor 3^st Class.
• Medal of Capture.

New map – Dead City

The map was created on an improved game engine Unity 5. The new version helped us add new smoother graphics, make the game more realistic and reconsider some other visual aspects. A lot of attention was paid to the terrain features of the map. Recently we were receiving a lot of requests from you guys to make something less about capturing beacons and more about fighting. This led us to the creation of the first map oriented toward intense fighting.

So the main features of Dead City are:

— Medium size of the map, that allows you to choose from numerous maneuvers. — Symmetrical key points and beacons dislocations, providing you with a plenty of strategies. — A varied landscape of the level. — Equal terms for weapons of any range: sniper perches and shelters where you can hide from snipers, reaching almost any part of the map unnoticed.
