Music added

by berserker at 09:38 AM
We have added 4 music tracks to the game:

1. Menu music
2. Clover Quarter battle music

4. Memorial Boulevard battle music

There are still no music for Beginners' Quarter and Junkyard so we temporarily put there music from Lost Beach and Memorial Boulevard accordingly.

Russian localization added

by berserker at 12-29-2008 08:30 AM
Russian localisation added so expect to see more Russian-speaking players in the game. Not sure if everyone will be happy about this though :)
Also updated screenshots with different locations on the website so if your level is too low, you might want to check them out.

Other changes:
+ Number of slots on Junkyard increased up to 10, thus allowing more massive mega-battles.
+ Vintorez powered up
+ Maximum RPG range decreased by 1
+ fixed: while using optics sometimes screen is centered on unit, not on optics target
+ fixed: when enemy is blinded after using optics, opened part of the map disappeared

Groups
There gonna be 3 different categories:
1) for levels 10-14
2) for levels 15-19
3) for levels 20-24
For those who is below level 10 - you still have time to level up. For those who are above level 24 - sorry, but you may try to start new character.

Entry Fee
1 artifact item of rank 2+ (items that require 20+ skill points to use) /*example of art*/
OR
1 any artifact item at least lightblue (to remove junk like cleaving makarov) /*example of art*/
All collected items will come straight to prize fund and will be divided between winners.
NOTE: Items must have at least 75% attrition, so don't submit junk :)
Give entry fee items to darkwish

Registration
To register yourself for it all you need is to contact me (darkwish) and give me something that qualifies as Entry Fee. I will update list of participants here.

Rules
1. No special restrictions - you can play naked or equipped, whatever you see fit.
2. No artifacts allowed in tournament battles as some of them are too powerful.
3. There will be time scheduled for your battle in advance - it you won't make it - that's gonna be counted as technical loss.
4. All fights will be at Lost Beach.
5. Moderators will watch all battles to see everything is well and no one violates rules (like using artifacts).
6. Time will be limited for each battle and it over 1 hour there are still no winner, moderator will abort the game and decide who is the winner on it's own.

Prizes
All Entry Fee items will be shared between winners + some bonus items from berserker personally :) Remember, it's just a game so don't take it too serious ;)

Christmas update #4 - Memorial Boulevard redone, Santa's outfit now costs 1 Enkord

by berserker at 12-23-2008 02:38 PM
Another Christmas update and another location redone - Memorial Boulevard this time. Now it looks like Autumn:


Also for holidays season price of Santa's outfit is set to 1 Enkord Cash, however it will expire after 10 days. All those people who purchased Santa's outfit earlier paying big price will have their outfit for 360 days instead.

Another Christmas present from us is double experience for all players for the next 3 battles.

Other changes:
+ Alt+Enter - toggles full screen mode.
+ fixed: inability to attack manequin in tutorial
+ fixed: unreachable boxes on beginners
+ fixed: game goes on when all players are disconnected

Christmas update #3 - 50% off on prices and Beginners' Quarter completely redone

by berserker at 12-19-2008 01:05 PM
Special Christmas price for all items - 50% off
Santa's outfit now also 50% off so go ahead and grap one for yourself.

We've also completely redone Beginners' Quarter so it will look better now:


Other changes:
- When disconnected, there won't be any turn skips now, player units will stand still like player is there but away from keyboard. hopefully this will help those people who disconnect frequently.
- Trading between players from the same IP now blocked.
- fixed: error attacking your own mines after previous update.

Christmas update #2 - New location - Lost Beach

by berserker at 12-17-2008 11:42 AM
We have replaced old location "Lost Quarter" which looked exactly like "Junkyard" with new and better tropical beach called "Lost Beach". This location is quite varied in terms of gameplay - it can be spawned with mostly open range, or with a lot of walls. Hopefully you will enjoy it.

Here is a screenshot:


Other changes:
+ We continue to tweak grenades and grenade launcher attchments.
+ If player does not have live units in the game, his nickname becomes black.
+ fixed: in laggy game you can click several times on enemy and several shots were made, even if single shot was enough to kill.
+ Added visual effect when your ally uses optics.
+ Armor calculations tweaks (now more straight but a bit more random).
+ Other minor tweaks.

WebMoney Transfer payment option added

by berserker at 12-11-2008 09:30 AM
Now you can purcase Enkord Cash by WebMoney Transfer. This is online payment system that is widely used in ex-USSR countries like Ukraine, Russia, and others. This is preferred payment method for people from these countries as it gives more value per dollar spent comparing to SMS.

Charging Enkord Cash via WebMoney Transfer is at the same rate as CreditCard or PayPal:
$9.95 = 10000 Enkord Cash
$19.95 = 22000 Enkord Cash
$29.95 = 35000 Enkord Cash
$49.95 = 70000 Enkord Cash
$99.95 = 150000 Enkord Cash

IN ORDER TO PURCHASE ENKORD CASH VIA WebMoney LOGIN TO THE GAME AND CLICK "CHARGE" BUTTON IN CASH SHOP LIKE YOU NORMALLY DO. IN OPENED BROWSER WINDOW YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SELECT WebMoney AS PAYMENT OPTION.
