changedChanges and Improvements:
fixedFixed an issue where raid levels could sometimes load empty and without loot when loading an autosave.
addedThe balance and difficulty of the monsters on the quest level “Ghost Base” have been adjusted. The total health pool of the attacking monsters has been reduced from 1500 to 750 . Originally, this mission was added as a reference to the first game and was intended to be quite difficult. At the beginning of the mission, the player also received a CZ Scorpion EVO 3 as a reward, which was meant not so much to help complete the mission itself, but rather to make the rest of the game easier. However, as player feedback and experience have shown, many players did not understand that intention. As a result, the decision was made to make this side mission easier. After all, nobody likes dying 3–4 times :)
changedThe description of the mission to rescue the group at “Ghost Base” has been updated. It now clearly states that it is best to bring an HMG machine gun for this mission.
