Steam Playtest - Patch Notes 0.2.5α

What's up, players? Crit Team dropping in! Sorry about the long wait. We've had too much on our plate over the past two months. But thank goodness, we've now finally broken free from those chores, phew! With that, we bring you the 0.2.5α update. This marks the start of another long-term maintenance. We'll be pushing forward with subsequent updates as soon as possible to refine the game's overall framework. Fingers crossed you dig it.

New Features

System

Different search points now have distinct SFX/background panels.

Shelf-type search points now visually reflect loot richness.

Suppressor-type muzzle attachments now modify gunfire sounds.

Dual Crosshair Aiming

We noticed players occasionally lost track of their aim position while using auto-aim, resulting in missed tracking. The new dual crosshair system addresses this by locking the internal aim to targets and continuously showing the player's actual cursor position externally.

New Map

• Players must complete a series of linear missions to unlock this new map.

New Abnormal Status

• Fire Field: You are in a fire field, affected by smoke and heat.

• High Heat Protection: Insulates you from high temperatures, enabling uninterrupted operation in extreme heat.
