New SED Items

We are glad to present new equipment and weapon for the SED, which will allow you to diversify the class combat strategy and its habitual gameplay.
 
The new “Mercury” gear set will give fresh gaming experience to those who were not "hooked" by the original SED. The modules increase the robot’s speed of movement and reduce its armor. Thus, the SED will be able to assume the role of a more mobile but less enduring fighter. At the same time, the previous armor sets will remain unchanged.
"Mercury" head module
 
Detects enemy's claymores
Flashbang effect -40%
"Mercury" body module
 
Armor points: 330.
Decreases damage by 15 points per hit.
Increases protection against explosives by 32%.

Increases weapon select and deselect speed by 20%.
"Mercury" legs module
 
Delay claymore activation by 3 sec.
Increases leg protection by 20%.

Decreases the sound of movement.

Apart from the equipment, the SED will also acquire a new weapon M134-GAU19b Hybrid. It stands out among other SED weapons thanks to an incredibly high rate of fire. In addition, the new weapon overheats and cools faster meaning that the arm is more suitable for shooting in deadly short bursts rather than for continuous fire.

Remastered "Blackgold" map

Much time had passed since the location creation, so it required being brought to modern standards. While reworking the map, the developers paid attention not only to its appearance but to the gameplay as well. "Blackgold" is now more balanced and dynamic. Moreover, some "problem areas" have been eradicated, for example, unintended vulnerable spots.

The map became more “living” after lighting adjustment and replacement of objects and textures with more detailed and modern ones. At the same time, now players are more visible against the background. The location is now even more atmospheric thanks to new animations, and special visual and sound effects that guarantee a complete immersion into the gameplay!
 
Despite all the changes, the map has retained its familiar appearance and will certainly be of interest to both project veterans and beginners.

Reworked damage indicator

The damage indicator ("cross") is one of the oldest interface elements. It is extremely important for every fighter at every game stage. At the same time, the previous version of the “cross” often confused users and did not communicate the expected information during the gaming process. We decided to fix it by reworking its mechanics and making them more intuitive.

Rework reasons
First, let's look at the mechanics of the old indicator version.
  • It displayed only the damage done to the enemy's health and neglected the damage dealt to the armor;
  • Each hit had its own damage indicator which depended on certain factors (the state of armor when the shot was performed, defense modifier, the impacted part of the body), but did not depend on the enemy's health and previous hits.
  • The size of the displayed "cross" directly depended on the damage dealt to the enemy's health.
This fact gave rise to such questions as “Why does the indicator never change its size?”, “Why does the same weapon cause different damage in different combat situations?”, and others. As a result, we decided to make the damage indicator more understandable and logical.

New mechanics are much simpler and clearer.

Now the ''cross'' sports both indicators: damage dealt to the enemy's health as well as to the armor.
  • The size of the indicator now depends on the current state of the enemy in a gun battle.
  • The more you hit the enemy, the more damage you deal him; therefore, the size of the displayed “cross” grows. In other words, the weaker the enemy is, the larger the indicator will become with every hit.
  • The full damage indicator means the death of the enemy.

Thus, the new system provides more understandable data about your shooting efficiency, the state of the enemy and your chances of winning the battle.
