Today we’ve released the big update with version 0.54.1, in which we did a lot of changes in the game. So, first things first!
Unlinked weapons to classes
In this version, we’ve removed the weapon link to the classes. This is due to the fact that there is already some unlinked weapon in the game, and upcoming changes in the skill trees will be targeted to underline class roles stronger.
As you know, each class obtains its “inborn” bonuses for weapon usage of its own class, which additional increases thanks to skill-tree. And we are working on the reworking of skill-trees for each class now, which additionally increases the efficiency of using class weapons.
In other words, yes, each character class now can use any weapon, but will it also be effective? Also, in the weapon's description will be pointed, is it fit your class or not.
In situations, when you use the weapon of other classes, will be applied a negative effect to the damage, accuracy, the chance of critical hit will be reduced, and the development progress of this weapon skill will be fined two times. More specifically, let’s suppose that you reached full weapon skills for assault rifles when you were a mercenary (100%). After, you decided to change your class to the hunter. In this case, when you become a hunter, assault rifles weapon skills will be fined by 50%. When you change your class back to the mercenary, the fine will be removed and your assault rifle weapon skill will be equal 100% again. In other words, going this way, we exclude universal “terminators” from the game, which will obtain full weapon skills for all weapon types.
It should be noticed, that if you use the weapon of your class, you obtain extra damage, full possibility to develop the class weapon and skills that work for your weapon. Thus, the efficiency of the usage of your class weapon increases high.
Weapon class unlinking doesn't affect mines and equipment.
A new high-level weapon

WSC PDW – is a modified version of KAC PDW, which uses 5.56x45 rounds instead of 6x35, unlike the original version. This automatic weapon very close by its dimensions to submachine guns, but at the same time, it has a very good stopping effect as automatic rifles.
