New update released. We've been working on it for the last 2 months, putting aside all other plans. And we think it's worth it! But let's get straight to the point.
Major changes:
- The game now has bases and the first modules available for construction. Very briefly:
- Headquarters. As the level of the Headquarters increases, new contracts begin to appear on the map, and the reward for winning PvP battles also increases. Also, the Headquarters limits the maximum level of other base modules.
- Science Center. Provides the ability to conduct research. The higher the level, the faster the research goes and the more of them available.
- Hangar. Allows you to create squad templates. We've been receiving requests from players for a long time to make it possible to create several squads with a different composition of fighters and choose ready-made templates before starting a mission. The higher the level of the Hangar, the more you can create such templates and the higher the chance of additional loot in PvP and "Confrontation".
- Barracks. The higher the level of the Barracks, the more operatives you can recruit to the squad. Previously, a squad could keep an unlimited number of operatives. The game balance has long required the introduction of a limit on their number. And now, by default (without the Barracks), their maximum number is 18. Surplus operatives won't disappear anywhere, they can be fired, the restriction concerns the hiring of new fighters. The development of the Barracks increases the number of operatives on the account.
- Headquarters. As the level of the Headquarters increases, new contracts begin to appear on the map, and the reward for winning PvP battles also increases. Also, the Headquarters limits the maximum level of other base modules.
- Appeared research. In order to start them, it's necessary to build a Science Center. Research requires a variety of resources to start and progress along with the player's account gaining game experience. Thus, in order for the research to progress, it's necessary to complete missions or participate in PvP battles. Building new levels of base modules also requires preliminary research for each level.
- There are new resources needed for research, containers with a variety of loot appeared (no, they are not for sale and won't be, this is just a way of grouping rewards for missions and research).
All of this has seriously changed the economic balance and affected almost every aspect of the game. The current implementation of the base, research and the new version of the economic balance is the first iteration. Further, new buildings of the base will be added, giving new functionality (including crafting, which will later require those resources that have appeared in the game now), the balance, research prices, the difficulty of new missions will also be adjusted.
We'll monitor your feedback and will try to take into account your wishes on the development of the base and research to the maximum. If you find any bugs, please do not hesitate to send reports directly from the game using the Ctrl + Alt + B keyboard shortcut.
