Update 3.0 - Patch Notes

Major fixes

Additions and improvements

- Improvements in the Edit Squad Screen to achieve better communication of relevant Soldier Traits

• Enabled: Point of Interest screen element is visible in Edit Squad Screen for better overview.

• Added: Highlight of soldiers when hovering over Beneficial Traits.

- Added: Attack Ground command, thanks to which is now possible to target ground with artillery vehicles.

Mission-related fixes

• FixedVladivostokThe issue of disappearing ammo for soldiers in trucks after loading the game is fixed. Soldiers can reload properly from the shared stash.

• Sukhinichi: Sudden mission failure following killing a civilian is no longer happening.

• AddedCanyonAll the new soldiers get rescued correctly no matter which exit area is used.

• Barabinsk: Bridge explosions at the beginning moved and timed in a way that player- controlled units shouldn’t be harmed by them.

• Pisky: ‘Patchwork Makes Dream Work’ challenge now works properly.

Note: While mission-specific issues were fixed, we recommend that you replay such missions from the beginning and do not load a previously created in-mission save where you experienced the problem.

Balancing changes

• Balancing of the frequency and timing of punishing events in train management. There should be fewer harsh events happening in a short period of time and in starting segments.

• Balancing of Traits impact (Herbalist, Hunter) on resource gathering in Points of Interest (lakes, forests, villages).

• Balancing of Operational Damage on train cars and respective Endurance upgrades (Improved Leaf Springs, Metal Plating, Advanced Framing). Train cars now receive damage from a traveled distance, and it should feel more beneficial to make Endurance upgrades.

• Balancing of metal costs on car upgrades, fixing car statuses, research and crafting recipes.

• Balancing done to make ammo crafting less expensive.

DLC-specific fixes and improvements (spoilers included)

- Narrative squads balancing and tweaks:

• All narrative squads now should have at least two soldiers with Stabilize or Heal skills and should feel stronger while playing the missions.

• Profession levels were increased together with attributes to improve
