World

  • Added Foggy weather

New Item

  • Added a new weapon, the Mini-14. The Mini-14 is a lightweight and compact 5.56 semi-automatic marksman rifle
  • The weapon uses sniper rifle attachments for both the muzzle and magazine slots, and can take any type of optic sight
  • This weapon has lower damage stats than other DMR's, which is compensated by very high muzzle velocity and low bullet drop

  • Adjusted animations and balance of throwables

  • Decreased fuse time of the Flash Grenade to 2.5 seconds
