July Update!!

Hey guys,



We are currently waiting for Steam servers to push out this new build, so the update should be out at any moment!



While you're waiting to download the new patch, here is an overview of the changes and new features that have been added! -



A fully interactive user tutorial has been added. This will demonstrate the game's core mechanics to first time users or anyone who needs a refresher. We recommend trying it!



Operations is a new solo and Co-op mode VS AI which pits players against opponents of customizable difficulty and numbers. There will currently be two scenarios to choose from; Hunt and Defend. This is just the first iteration and we have some exciting plans for the future of Operations!



The Shooting Range has also been given a little love. It now comes with the ability for players to now simultaneously change their loadouts without the need for any rounds to end.



Private lobbies have been introduced, with 4 digit password protection. These can be set up during creation of a game from the multiplayer menu, and the password removed at any point in the tent. Private lobbies will by default show at the end of the server browser.



The Competitive lobby setting is a new option that has been added for creation of a new lobby. Only Uplink and Escort lobbies can be made competitive at this time. This is designed to allow players to differentiate their lobby from the rest of the server list, and is recommended for attracting well versed players of high skill. If you see the competitive icon on a server, expect a fight.



The 'Top Secret' revamped map has been delayed till end of July so that our artists can finalize and polish the map! More news about the map will be given throughout the next 2 weeks!
