Halloween + late Oktoberfest client update patch notes

Added New Halloween edition of Harbor Port

  • The layout of the map has gone more vertical, you are able to climb on top of the containers in the middle, and perhaps there is a way to climb even higher?
    • The map is covered in thick fog, making long distance fights challenging, better get up close and personal!
    • The map also resembles more of a graveyard than a shipping yard.
    • The atmosphere is spooky, play at your own risk!
  • Added 3 other Halloween edition maps, Block, Xauen and Karaqum *Added Halloween edition Zombies

Video/Screenshot competition!

  • Record your best/funniest/spookiest gameplay moment videos in the new Halloween map (Recommended to use “after action” recording software such as Shadowplay) (Also bonus points for having Light Map and Dynamic Light turned on)
  • Or take screenshots 📸
  • Post the videos in Youtube in private first and then post them on the ⁠beta-screenshots channel, or post them there directly.
  • Everyone will receive prizes for both Closed and Open Beta! And the Top-3 videos/clips will receive the best prizes and can be posted on your and/or our Youtube channel!

Shop Updates

  • Added 2 new weapons:
    • MP44 for Assault, which is similar to AK47 but heavier, less ammo, slightly slower RPM but more Damage and Accuracy
    • USAS12 shotgun for E/M/A, the recoil has been halved compared to Papaya
  • New Halloween items: Scythe, Halloween Total package, Oktoberfest package and Pow Camp package
  • Changed Seasonal Characters selection, 2 Oktoberfest characters for Medic and Assault and 1 Halloween character for Assault
  • Removed character parts from all random boxes as they caused issues, then added 5 different gloves to the character shop for now.

Improvements

  • Possible fix for the manual patch issue! Let us know if its still an issue after this update.
  • Many small server updates to hopefully fix some crashes and other annoying bugs, check them out over at ⁠beta-changelog
  • Reduced the sound file size in Skyline Standoff, aiming to eliminate/reduce the sound from bugging out, let us know if it still happens.
  • Skill Pointer map improvements. Weapon Balance Changes:
  • Aug & VSS recoil control slight buff (reduces recoil and improves accuracy slightly)
  • Throwing Knives changes: Slower velocity but 4 knives instead of 2
  • Added more FFA Maps; Ravello_2nd_Street, Wild_Boar, Favela, Hanok_Village
  • Donators now have exclusive cosmetic item available to be claimed, simply come in-game and PM [GM]Killingtime and he shall inject it. These items are purely cosmetic and have no other benefits than Exp/Dinar, and not all Exp carries to the Open Beta, only part of it does so keep this in mind.

Issues

  • Going to Character Menu in the shop right after logging in might cause a crash, better wait for a minute before going there.
  • Skull Bow seems a bit bugged, not sure as I have never used it before, lets just try it out anyway.
  • If the lights are too annoying in the new map or if you are suffering from low FPS, you can turn off the Light Map and Dynamic Light.

Lets go test out the new update, Happy Halloween!
