Wanderers of Wasteland!



We continue to work on improving the game and new character controller. While most of the team is working on it, we're also keeping in mind other important elements and bugs that need to be fixed.

We've already shared this roadmap on our social networks and on the discord server, but we're sure it won't be a bad idea to share it with this announcement as well.



In the run-up to a major patch with mines and grenades update, we want to show some new features to be added to the future controller.

In all previous versions of our character moving system, it was impossible to sit down. Although it is not very useful in monster attacks, but in shootings with live players this feature strikes well.



Oh yeah, if you haven't seen the updated character model yet.



We decided to go further and in addition to moving on squat, and we will add the possibility of full combat and moving in a crawl.



Now in the movement of the character is too much smoothness, various drifts and long turns after sprints make it difficult to move through narrow spaces, and their beauty is not needed in battle.

Now the character will react to all the actions of the player almost instantly.


(this is a test assembly of ready animations, in the final version of the controller movements will be synchronized even better)

But that's not all, we want to give the players maximum freedom in combat, so we will publish a few more cool things as soon as they are ready.

In addition to the above, we would like to keep the character "alive", even though he will be the perfect killing machine. This Gif shows the interaction between the direction of your view and the camera, so you can gaze into the eyes of your opponent before the upcoming duel.



We know that a lot of players are waiting for the controller update, believe us, we are waiting for it too :) Stay in touch and ask any questions to the developers on our server in Discord.

Good luck at Wasteland, wanderers!
