March 23rd, 2025
- Fixed issue where player hitbox at corpse location remained targetable. There might still be a rare case where it happens but for 99.9% of deaths it should be good
- Fixed issue where the Fall of Titans achievement would not require a game win
- Tooltip cleanup and fixes
- Various unique MOS model additions and icon/texture changes
Two primary issues with the current mutation implementation:
- The mutation rate is quite low and caps at 10 mutations per 45s, allowing players to lap 150IL for 20 minutes without issues. (The mutation rate is effectively Current IL / 10.)
- Mutations don't take into account the IL cap, so 101/100 IL will bring 10 mutations vs 4 when 41/40.
The formula has been updated to DefaultMutationBonus + ((current IL - IL cap) / 5) mutations every 45s.
- DefaultMutationBonus = 5 by default, 10 for invasion, and 15 for luna.
Below is a comparison of current vs new mutation rates:

These changes will make the mutation rate scale better depending on the IL cap and account for the game mode. Different values were set for invasion/luna due to their high IL caps. The changes aim to maintain balance for the rainbow unlock (60 IL cap with t1 hyper survival).
- The melee damage reduction from Kevlar has been changed from 25% to 10%. This effectively changes the crossover damage where Kevlar gives more protection than SPCS for melee damage from 45 (current 25%) to 87 (10%).
Current 25%:
- Incoming 150, damage taken: 100 (Kev) vs 126 (SPCS)
- Incoming 300, damage taken: 212 (Kev) vs 276 (SPCS)
- Incoming 500, damage taken: 362 (Kev) vs 476 (SPCS)
10%:
- Incoming 150, damage taken: 120 (Kev) vs 126 (SPCS)
- Incoming 300, damage taken: 255 (Kev) vs 276 (SPCS)
- Incoming 500, damage taken: 435 (Kev) vs 476 (SPCS)
For example, in this scenario (10% damage reduction), Kevlar gives 30/45/65 effective armor vs 24/24/24 for the SPCS.
- Fixed Kevlar tooltips to reflect the immunity it grants to minor ailments/concussions/infections.
- Now spawns at the same rate as ghillie suits (quite rare → 1/8) in the initial item drop loop. Not deemed strong enough to be in the t2 item loop.
- Shield regen increased from 3 -> 5
- Added a unique behavior: if the item wielder has 10+ shield, they are immune to licker tongue and impaler displacement effects. This gives the item a more distinct role in the current t1 armor lineup.
- MRL item now has the same explosion effect as Jav MRL ability.
- Updated MGL/M5 MAR tooltips to properly show players that MGL has a -25% damage bonus vs massive/mechanical targets.
- Added some checks for Juggernaut ailment application
- With transference skill lvl 4, nano weave passive (Nano Recharge) no more activate a Vulkan Shield like effect that reduces your energy everytime you take damage for 15s. It still gives 10 more energy armor, so the Vulkan Shield will still be more effective if you activate alongside the Nano Recharge effect.
This variant was able to output much more damage than base PL, with fewer levels and was more convenient to play because of the recruit selection mechanic. These adjustments bring it closer to the base variant.
- Can only promote one of each LN class
- Promote is now restricted to one promote per LN class; cannot promote more than one of any LN class.
- Militia, Gunner, Marksman no longer have a bonus vs light. Other classes retain a bonus to aid self defense.
- Gunner and Marksman no longer gain ranged damage bonuses as part of their class training.
- Militia class training's ranged damage bonus reduced from 15% to 5%
- All "MRL" abilities shared by these units can now all be cast together without "tabbing" through each one; they share the same set ID.
Jav has received QoL improvements and additional personality.
- Improved the explosion effect on HE/AT rocket to give it more punch.
- Reduced claymore energy cost from 70 -> 25 energy. The ability had limited utility due to high CD/energy cost and greater difficulty of use compared to frags, especially in tense situations.
- Reworked the SS4 passive into a JavSkill3 passive, now named Launcher Mastery, combining the old unshakable effect with a 100% damage bonus to MRL and 50% damage bonus to MGL/M5 Mar items.
- Added new SS4 passive: Explosive Mastery that grants 15s cooldown reduction on Explosive Charges and Claymores.
- Reduced Guided Rockets energy cost by 15.
- Reduced Guided Rockets casting time to 1s from 1.5s.
- Guided Rockets now do double damage to laser-designated targets OR flying/cliffwalker zombies. This affects splash damage too, so if you target a flying zombie with the rocket and it does splash damage to a ground unit under it, the ground unit will also take double damage.
- Guided Rockets is now castable map-wide if you have vision on the target.
- Binoculars are now usable with JavSkills1 instead of JavSkills2.
omgomgomg FSS BUFFS!!!
- Improved the explosion effect of CFF to give it a tad more punch.
- Fixed issue where White Phosphorous shells could land in unpathable locations and fail to spawn the fire
- Same as JAV, reduced claymore energy cost from 70 -> 55 energy (should match Jav claymore cost with SS4 Passive and upgraded claymore).
- Fixed issue where critical shots didn't have the appropriate sound.
The SDM Focus variant has been adjusted particularly for lapping scenarios. It was easier to play than spec and much safer due to mono and the ability to sling focus shot while stutter-stepping.
- Base energy cost down from 20 -> 19
- Every level of SDM skills reduces the cost by 3 instead of 5. At max level, it costs 10 energy instead of 5.
- Increase the charge cooldown by 2s at max level, but tuned down the scaling so early levels don't suffer too much from the increased CD.
This ability was underused because it was very inefficient energy-wise and could be skipped entirely. It has been adjusted to be more viable.
- Energy cost down from 30 -> 10
- Cooldown up from 12 -> 30
- Added 60% damage amp during the ability (roughly equals ~15% crits with 5x multiplier)
- Made it so 8 bullets could be shot OR 2s passed before the ability ends
- Made it so Focus can't be used alongside it
Level 1-3 monomolecular wire ability is now equal to base variant level 1-3 monomolecular wire ability.
- Damage down from 1250/2500 -> 800/1600 at lvl 1 and 3 respectively
- Energy cost up from 75 -> 85 for the lvl 3 ability
- CD up from 25s -> 26s for the lvl 3 ability
Additional improvements for the Mech Operator
- Glazes can now be applied to every Mech.
- Removed the application of Ghost/Hellfire glaze on the Mech by default if the MO player had them unlocked.
- Request/Reboot Mech has been renamed Request/Redeploy Mech (this is the generic mech calldown skill)
- A Mech dying no longer disables Request/Redeploy Mech for 300s
- Request/Redeploy Mech no longer has a cooldown of 30s or costs 50% energy at all levels. It now has a cooldown of 300s between uses, and the energy cost now scales per level at 75%/50%/25%.
- Casting Request/Redeploy Mech no longer requires a 30/20/10s channel to complete. Now you throw a flare to mark the deployment location, and after a 30/15/2.5s delay a dropship arrives:
- If you do not have an active Mech, the dropship will drop a Mech at the deployment location.
- If you do have an active Mech, the dropship will spawn by the active Mech, pick it up, and drop it off at the deployment location. This still applies the previous behavior of repairing your mech over time, which will be active during transit.
- While preparing for transit, your mech will be invulnerable but disabled and not pilotable
¶ Bradley and Abrams
- Added a new ability: Acquire Target
- This ability locks your weapon and turret onto a target, firing continuously at it until either it dies, the ability is deactivated, the target is out of range, or you are out of energy.
- This ability will use your actively selected shell type, but with a fixed fire rate. Each shot will consume energy while this ability is active.
- Using the Canister Shot or TOW-A Missile abilities will cancel this ability, as they will unlock the turret.
- Both M242 30mm Autocannon (Bradley) shell types now have a minimum range of 1. Both shell types also have had their base attack period reduced to 0.375 (previously 0.35)
- Both 130mm Smoothbore Cannon (Abrams) shell types now have a minimum range of 2. Both shell types also have had their base range reduced to 25 (previously 30).
- Fixed an issue where the TOW-A missile could behave unusually when fired directly ontop of the mech
- Reduced contact damage interval to 0.1s (previously 0.25s)
- Reduced TOW-A Missile energy cost to 60 (previously 75)
- Increased Bradley base energy pool to 450 (previously 350)
- New MOS, based off of JTAC specialising fully into strafing type abilities, loses access to helis.
- Avaliable only to beta testers, public testing TBA
- New MOS, fusion of JTAC's heli and Mech Operator, summons a permament heli for piloting, uses Mech Operator energy transfer mechanic for uptime.
- Avaliable only to beta testers, public testing TBA
Instead of 2x rounds that deal 0.5x damage, attributes have been modified so AP does little damage to light targets and HP does little damage to armored targets, encouraging spec players to swap rounds instead of using AP all game.
- Snipe AP attribute modifier to light reduced from -0.4 to -1.4
- Snipe HP attribute modifier to armored reduced from -0.5 to -1
Maybe some new players somewhere will survive 2 more minutes in a t3 survival because of this! Aren't you happy for the pubbers?
- Replaced smoke grenades with an MGL
- Added FAKS
- Added Kevlar Armor
The SI previously affected shield armor, which was inconsistent with its theme. Future plans include making Shield Armor SI less of a meme... Stay tuned.
- +15 shield/life armor -> +15 life armor
The bonuses were quite good and desirable on many DPS MOS and close to VT. Manually targeting was deemed a strong enough drawback for the bonuses without requiring manual reload. The SI is unlocked by manually targeting during Charon afterall.
- Removed the need to reload manually with the SI selected
PM is a very strong SI: 53% uptime (without cooldown reduction) for a 100% damage buff. The main drawbacks were nullified by the SN SI. Nerfing the plasma shield furthermore counterbalances the high damage value, requiring more careful play around t1.
- Further reduced plasma shield value modifier from x0.75 -> x0.50. With PM shield values will now be 200/400/600/800 at lvl 1/2/3/4 respectively
- Reduced plasma shield duration by 4s flat. With PM, shield duration will now be 4/5/6/7 at lvl 1/2/3/4 respectively
Nimble shares effects with Biosuit and (now) bubble gen. These changes add a unique element to the SI.
- With nimble selected, jumping now applies a buff for 1s that prevents any displacement/stun/damage/ailment effects from Lacertis/Arach charges. This also applies to Cyborg Super Jump.
- No longer gives any bonuses to Life or Shield Armor
- Now grants its own set of mech levels, geared towards defensive boosts
- This was originally implemented but never linked up or something, oops?
- Grants 5 levels, requiring 1500 exp (FT requires 1250 to reach 10 levels), with each level granting:
- +0.0234 Movement Speed
- +2 Life and Shield Armor
- +5% Maximum Life and Shields
- +0.1 Vitals Regeneration
- At level 5, the cooldown of AEGIS Protocol is reduced to 180s (300s base)
- AEGIS Protocol now restores your mech over 5s (previously 10s).
- SF now properly restricts offensive and utility aura effects to the FT PL player alone
- SF "VT" stats will now apply to FT PL
- Ghosted Complete PMC Survival with the Tier 2, Isolation and Hyperpulse modifiers enabled.
- Scan Line Beat Nightmare Campaign with the Speedrun modifier enabled (Epilogue required).

- Huntress decal is now given for 6000 teamkills in Luna, down from 9000. If its still not obtainable, it will be lowered again in a future patch. Try hyper luna!
- Field Training PL (Old Beta PL) is now unlocked by playing BM UT1 Weather as Platoon Leader.
¶ Handle-based unlocks
- Fixed the handle-based unlocks. Pretty sure rainbow wasnt working but it should now. Famous last words
These changes allow players to execute the fuel mission with diverse MOS instead of being reliant on MO/Medic. While it significantly reduces difficulty for the heli mission, many teams still fail due to being overrun at the heliport.
- There are now only 2 canisters that spawn instead of 6
- One canister is needed to fuel a heli instead of 3
- Carrying a canister sets movement speed to 0.92× instead of 0.74×
- Fuel time limit is now 2 minutes, up from 1 minute 30 seconds
- Failing to escort an engineer after T1 Holdout has started should properly prevent Epilogue from triggering
- Changed minefield modifier behavior. Now creates 4 threads:
- One thread spawns echarges on the map every 0.2s, lasting for 30s, then they detonate instead of disappearing (approximately 150 echarges on the map at any given time).
- One thread spawns C4 on the map every 0.5s, lasting for 30s, then they detonate instead of disappearing (approximately 60 C4 on the map at any given time).
- One thread spawns plasma mines on the map every 0.5s, lasting for 30s, then they detonate instead of disappearing (approximately 60 plasma mines on the map at any given time).
- Removed explosive zombie spawns.
- Max mines on the map goes from 500 (5min despawn) to 270 (30s despawn).
- Mines now explode when they despawn.
- Mines are visible and disarmable by players with the Disarm ability.
- Modified players' LOS with isolation modifier from 10 -> 12 to make it slightly less punishing. Also ensures that vision range modifiers like ARTS/Hawkeye SI affect the LOS correctly.
- Made it so every time a player types in chat, the text will display over their head in-game. This behavior also applies to players in a mech.
- Optimized the bombardment loop.
- Corrected the behavior of the gourmand drop to drop 1 per player instead of 12 per player.
- Added approximately 15s between bombardments for better spacing/slightly less toxicity, but removed the double wait if it was a special bombardment.
- Bombardment should now always target a random alive/active player.

January 06 2023
The game now uses a fixed randomization seed based upon your lobbies player and time to the nearest hour. So remaking within the hour for optimal rng is no longer relevant, however playing challenge runs. ie outlaw will yield the same rng theortically if remaking within the same time frame. This should be working please report to me if it is not working. (I spent many man hours to make the game easier for Vanguard. - Rege)
- Marksmanship (For Most MOS):
- Damage scale remains the same 2.5x/5x/7.5x/10x damage, respectively per level
- Critical chance reduced to 0.25% chance for all MOS's (Including those w/o Markmanship)
- Critical chance increases by 0.25% chance per level of marksmanship
- Critical chance is now 100% upon landing a headshot on a zombie.
- Please note not all zombies have a head.
- Please note the only MOS currently that can target aim is Specter, and he cannot do critical hits.
Developer Thoughts - In response to controversial changes regarding high crit rate low crit damage and high crit damage low crit rate. We decided to do the best of my world(edit). which is no crit rate and high crit damage.
- Satellite Uplink:
- Reduced Energy cost by 5 for base ability.
- Removed 'Range' buff uplink inplace for aimbot [due to trolling]
- Added a new buff uplink - Aimbot
- Aimbot:
- Increases critical chance by 15% per level
- Costs 20 energy per level
Please note due to this change for LSS providing critical chance, all zombies now have an innate ability to do critical damage w/ value of 10x at a 25% chance base rate (modifiable, but capped at 99% w/ LSS buffs)
- Added a new chat command for LSS that corresponds to Uplink:
- -o (n1)(n2)(n3)(n4)(n5)(n6)(n7)(n8)(n9)(n10)(n11)(n12)(n13)
- -o QWERTYASDFZXC
- Where n1/q corresponds to that slot's level you which to allocate
- Example: -o 3000000000000
