5.03 proved to be a little more "beta" than usual, so i'm releasing a hot fix in the form of beta 5.04 today.
Give your thanks to Stahlhagel and ]OX[Typheron when you see them in-game for their bug reports and feedback.
5.04 has the following changes:
- The plasma pistol's rate of fire has been limited to one shot every 0.8 seconds. Take your time and aim, plasma spam wont work anymore.
- The visual effect for the plasma bolt has been scaled down to 50%
- Plasma bolt damage has been reduced to 50 from 80. It's more like a bolt gun hit than a cannon now.
- The plasma pistol combo has had it's missing materials and animation glitches fixed.
- The experimental particle system code has been removed from the meltagun. No more red X blinding.
As usual check the
Downloads Page for the latest patch and installer.
There is going to be a scheduled game to test the bug fixes and balance changes in 5.04 between 14:00 and 15:00 BST on Sunday the 27th. See you there.
