This week brings the new ‘CHAC’ rifle to the Orbital Workshop, with an extra 25% critical damage and a 0.8-second reload.
In addition we are also adding 7.62mm ammo to the Orbital Workshop as well as some fixes around crafting.
We’ve also got some details about next weeks performance-focused patch.
Notable Improvements:
- Fixed various issues with crafting drink flavours (tea/coffee/cocoa) where you could craft these with empty water containers
- Fixed issue where ice was queueing up recipes and melting in campfires without containers being present
- Mount modifiers are now correctly removed when sent up the space via the OEI - they where not before
This Week: CHAC Rifle
This week, we’re adding the new CHAC Rifle to the Orbital Workshop.
What the CHAC Rifle lacks in critical and projectile damage, it more than makes up for with its rate of fire and reload speed.
The CHAC Rifle sports a six-bullet magazine and a lightning-quick 0.8-second reload time. This means that while it might deal less damage per shot than the hunting rifle, it deals far more damage per minute.
A good example is the hunting rifle, which takes 18 seconds to take down a level one polar bear, compared to only 12 seconds for the CHAC Rifle. In layman terms, the speed and handling of the CHAC Rifle, more than makes up for the lower damage per shot.
The CHAC Rifle can be unlocked and purchased in the Orbital Workshop using Ren and Exotics.
In addition to the CHAC rifle we have also added the 7.62mm CHAC ammo box to the workshop which can be purchased using Ren.
Next Week: Multiplayer Server Performance Update
Next weeks update specifically targets performance ‘overhead’ involving the cost scaling of multiple players playing in one session.
We’ll have more details to share in our week 198 blog.
Your support makes these updates possible.
