changedWe're bringing you some good news regarding RUNNING WITH RIFLES: EDELWEISS. We've been hard at work improving the game and invite you to test our changes and give your feedback on our Discord server - #edelweiss-beta channel!
changedTo activate the public beta, right-click RUNNING WITH RIFLES in your Steam library and select Properties. Go to the Betas tab, then select the "beta - 1.82" option from the drop-down menu. Once you close out of the window, the requisite files will be downloaded. You can opt out of this by selecting "none" in the same menu.
addedHere's a rundown of the major changes made: in the art realm, we've made some tweaks to German and Allied uniform colours , particularly the brightness/darkness, to help differentiate their soldier models more easily - especially on the maps Sicily and Arnhem . On the AI front, we've made regular soldiers (but not veterans) be less accurate with bolt-action rifles, especially while moving. Additionally, Sentries no longer see further than players, Assault Soldiers can now spawn with bayonet rifles again but are much less accurate while moving, and spawn less often on Sicily and St. Marie du Mont . In regards to vehicles, Light Tanks now fire their cannon much quicker but deal less damage, the King Tiger fires slower but deals much more damage, and all AI-controlled Tanks have less sight range. In terms of map balancing, some vehicles now spawn slower on Hill 262 and Hell's Highway , the Bergetiger escort vehicle has received tweaks to prevent it from advancing when below a certain amount of health (requiring repairs), Axis campaign's Bastogne final objective has been made easier, and there has been a variety of weapon balance tweaks.
