Struggles and Persistence

After our last re-packing update, some serious issues such as white-textures bug with crashes still persisted which felt devastating as we had tried everything to fix it during the past few months. But that’s when we got the idea to use a fresh client that is unlikely to have any issues and luckily we had managed to acquire many different clients with almost all patches from Global Warrock, which enables us to develop various clients and various different updates for especially the Global client! So we quickly put up a client with the previous UI by using Bubbles 3.0 Server and so far based on our Alpha testing, this client is indeed very stable. Also not much progress was lost because we can utilize the old server, we just had to re-do the shop/items configuration and will have to re-add some content too. So we will be going with this 2016 August Client for now and later we plan to also attempt to use a fresh newer client with the blue updated UI for 3.0. Also why did we choose this client? Because it uses almost identical server structure as the 3.0 we had, so there were not many changes required.

The current plan is to carefully develop this client while slowly adding more stuff like new maps, modes, events etc. new content. So we need to do small updates almost daily and play test after every update. With daily play testing, we can do our Best to move towards the big Open Beta launch, if everything goes well, that would be in ~2 weeks! So 2.0 Alpha test is now over and we can move into 2.0 Beta Test, to test with more players!

Notes for 2.0 Beta Test:

You can download it from website menu

As always, make a folder and add it as an exception in anti virus and extract/install the game into that folder to avoid any unwanted issues

Known issues:

• You might get error about “FILE CHECK” on 1st launch, just re-start and it will be ok.
• 3.0 Inventories will be reset, this is to ensure compatibility with the new client.
• There are some weapons that are not fully added yet so they have stuff like name missing, no need to report these bugs as they are known.
• In general all basic issues like “Weapon Found” in the shop are known, no need to report them, will slowly update all.
• Gold Key and Platinum key doesn’t work still, will be added later.
• Weapons with 69 Cash price have not been balanced yet, so better to use the other weapons.
• Gun Smith is a bit buggy, crafting for the 2nd time might not work.
• Zombies maps only ready Blind Bullet Easy/Hard, Light House Easy, Pow Camp Easy (To be improved), others have default temporary basic scenario.

Weapon balancing stuff:

• PSG and WA2000 are now fixed in the new client and they can 1-shot to Chest.
• M500 pistol can now 1-shot to Chest and is not available for Medic anymore, will be balanced further later as it might be a bit op atm.

Its time to get to work and finish up 2024 with a banging Open Beta launch! Lets go play test!
