Fjord Conquest & More Update | v3.0.102

Fjord Conquest, some Quality of Life improvements, better water and post-processing for PCVR, an updated roadmap, and much more! Welcome to a new update for Forefront!

Find out more details in our Discord and read the full changelog below!

New Field Test Map | Fjord Conquest!

Steam post imageOur team is still hard at work crafting a brand-new map. To hold you over, we present a new field test map that was suggested quite a bit by our community, Fjord Conquest! Instead of pushing the enemy back or protecting your position surrounded by gorgeous frosty nature, conquer every snowy point and deplete enemy reinforcements until they’re forced to wave the white flag.

Quality of Life & More PCVR Enhancements!

Steam post imageTeam balancing has finally made it into the game, together with a bunch of smaller things to tweak and improve user experience in Forefront. For example, the KLAV-6 has gotten another nerf at great request from our community, some UI polish makes Rush and Conquest objective notifications more readable, engineers will now see repair icons for vehicles, and much more. Discover all tweaks and improvements in the changelog below this post or in our Discord. Additionally, from improved water visuals, to SSAO, and Bloom. Even more PCVR Enhancements have made it into Forefront, all with options to disable and enable to your heart’s content. And great news, because we’re still not done and have a couple more enhancements in the works.

The Future of Forefront

Steam post imageIn the main menu, players will also discover that the whiteboard has been updated with some features and content we have planned for future updates. Let us know what you are most excited about. As always, let us know what you think about the game, and the update in our Discord. We’re always looking forward to your feedback. Cheers, and see you in the game!
