- V2 Advanced AI Tactics: Complete rewrite of bot combat logic. AI units now actively flank, take cover, aggressively push, hold chokepoints, and make tactical squad decisions based on shared team communication. (Warning: Bots are significantly more lethal and tactical—patience and methodical clearance are required!)
- S&box Animation Update Integration: Updated bot animations and movement profiles using S&box's latest animation framework for a heavier, more grounded, and tactical feel.
- 50% Disk Footprint Reduction: Optimized game assets, slashing total install size from 3.0 GB down to 1.5 GB.
- Static Mesh Compilation: Converted over 2,100 world models into compiled static meshes, resulting in major overall performance and memory gains.
- Firefight FPS Stability: Optimized muzzle flash and shooting performance for smoother framerates during intense exchanges of fire.
- Environmental Audio & Detection: Comprehensive audio tuning for ambient soundscapes and directional bot detection cues.
- Audio Engine Crash Fix: Resolved an audio crackling/crashing bug during heavy sound load.
- Magazine Unloading: Players can now strip and harvest loose ammunition directly from unequipped magazines found on bots and loot containers.
- Sprint Lean Reset: Running while leaning now automatically resets player stance to neutral, preventing awkward weapon angles.
- Adjusted Full-Auto Suppression Blur: Fine-tuned the camera blur effect during prolonged automatic fire to improve combat clarity.
