Balance

Endless Game Mode

  • Special Zed Waves
    • Scrake Waves
      • Set the trigger chance from 50% to 100% for special Zed waves past wave 20. This means that the Scrake wave should be the only special Zed wave occurring after wave 20 on all base difficulties

Designer Note - We’re setting it so that the Scrake special Zed wave takes the place of the Fleshpound special Zed wave for waves 21 and above. Currently, the Fleshpound special Zed wave has a spawn rate issue that is disrupting the difficulty of the gameplay, and we are looking at options to fix this.

Weapons

  • Berserker
    • Zweihander
      • Reverted the stumble value of light attacks from 100 to 250
      • Reverted the stumble value of heavy attacks from 250 to 100

Designer Note - We had previously altered the stumble values because the light attacks had a substantially higher stumble chance compared to the heavy attacks. Thus, it was easier to combo and stumble Zeds with the light attacks. Since the light attacks are faster than the heavy attacks, we were concerned about the effectiveness of this gameplay style. We then received feedback about its new setup, and it was not as engaging and interesting as its old setup. The Zweihander’s stumble values have been reverted to their original values.

  • Sharpshooter / Commando
    • FNFAL ACOG
      • Increased recoil by 15%
      • Increased penetration value from 0 to 2
      • Increased automatic fire mode fire rate from 0.0857 to 0.099. This means it will fire slightly slower than before
      • Reduced stun value of bullets from 15 to 10

Designer Note - The FNFAL ACOG added a new, powerful addition to the Commando Perk. We targeted specific aspects of the weapon to attempt to reduce its effectiveness mainly for the Commando Perk. We adjusted down its automatic fire mode fire rate to reduce its spike damage potential, and we increased the recoil of the weapon to reduce its accuracy to make it harder to control it while unloading a magazine. We also toned down the stun value so that it’s not as easy to stun Scrakes and Fleshpounds as before, and this should also make the Sharpshooter‘s Ballistic Shot Perk skill more meaningful. Lastly, we increased the penetration power because of community feedback requesting its inclusion as it is a characteristic of Sharpshooter weapons. The penetration is the same as the M14EBR, and we’ll be gauging its effectiveness during the beta 2 patch.

Perks

  • Field Medic
    • Reduced toxic damage multiplier of ZED TIME - Zedative from 100x to 10x, effectively reducing the damage by 90%

Designer Note - The multiplier for the Perk skill was set substantially higher than intended. This resulted in exceptional amounts of damage whenever the skill triggered. Now, the damage should be more reasonable.

Maps

  • Monster Ball
    • Reduced the cost of the door leading into the alchemy room from 10,000 to 1250 dosh

Designer Note - We reduced the dosh requirement to open the door because the payoff to open it was not enticing for the dosh requirement. We also want to give players the option to open it earlier so they they don’t have to wait until the end of the game session to experience the space.

General

  • Removed the Workshop Subscription feature from the WebAdmin tool. This should also fix a Linux server issue from the Beta 1 build.
  • Adjusted the amount of chatter down from the Halloween Alpha Clot.

Beta 2 Bug Fixes

Gameplay
