Repeated intro

Greetings, dear friends! In this update, I present to you the first version of the new location — "Civilian Sector". You can access it through the underground base location of the stronghold. Many new characters have been added, including mercenaries. Some characters cannot yet be interacted with or spoken to, but I will continue adding quests and dialogues for them. Soon each of them will receive quests and voice acting.

As mentioned before, "Civilian Sector" is only the first version of the location. I will continue improving, expanding, and filling it with life and NPCs gradually in future updates.

Additionally, over the past month I fixed many bugs reported by players and completed many requests regarding settings, balancing of items, mechanics, and enemies. Important points below:

  • Added German language support to the game. Currently translating the game into Portuguese.

  • In the "Civilian Sector", NPC Tolyan Chekushka received a quest chain + voice acting. (Voiced by Grigory "Exi_Melior")

  • In the "Civilian Sector", NPC Kristina received a quest chain + voice acting. (Voiced by ladywesker, Twitch channel)

  • In the "Civilian Sector" bar, NPC Alyona Barwoman received a quest chain + voice acting.

  • In the "Civilian Sector", NPC Baba Manya received a quest chain + AI voice acting.

  • In the "Civilian Sector" bar, NPC Lisa received a quest chain + voice acting. (Voiced by smile_homa, Twitch channel)

  • All first-aid kits have been changed, now they add more health.

  • Fixed mercenary Sanya Kosoy ammunition count: it was 180, now correctly 300.

  • Devices "Mobile Scanner Q7", "Scanner RE-500", "Target Designator R1", and "Target Designator PLS500" now use AAA batteries. Their individual batteries have been removed from the game.

  • RPG7 now opens an ammunition selection widget when pressing left mouse button or reload key "R". This is intentional because RPG weapons are very powerful and should not be overly simplified.

  • Holding reload key "R" for at least 1 second now opens an ammo selection widget for available ammunition in your inventory.

  • NPC Black Widow quests #4 "Bad Experiments" and #5 "Red Water" are now completed.

I continue working on important mechanics that should have been in the game earlier:

Companion leveling, achievements with rewards, vehicle trunks, melee weapons, heavy weapons (like miniguns), sniper weapons, personal shelters, new locations, forest improvements, optimization of old caves, and upgrading/sharpening systems for weapons, armor, turrets, drones, robots, and devices.

These are the highest priority features that I want to bring into the game as soon as possible.

I also continue improving the client to make the game launch faster.

I wish everyone a good mood and enjoyable gameplay. Many new adventures are ahead.

Respectfully, Alexander.
