Star Conflict 1.3.33 ½
This week, we have decided to please you with important changes in the game. We have long been working on destroyers and overlooked some important moments of the game. It is time to correct the situation.
Today it became known that a very dangerous computer virus has infected all UMC systems. As a result of the failure all shipyards automatically replaced weapons of mercenaries with new models that have not yet passed the tests. Any weapons is now dangerous for pilots! Engineers are trying to restore the computer systems from the mysterious infection, but this requires time. According to some reports, the notorious Miss Summer may be involved! There is a theory that victory over the virus depends on the amount of time spent fighting. We are hoping for your help!
Weekly Tournaments
The unknown computer virus has also infected the names of the teams in the weekly tournament. We hope for a speedy remedy!
Open Space
Some players complained that during collisions with asteroids ship receive different damage, because their surface is uneven and there are subtle ledges. We decided to change the shape of asteroids to smooth perfect cubes. Now you always know how much durability you’re going to lose.
‘Antipirate’ system that automatically destroyed all attacking players has been removed from the game since nobody ever used it.
Matchmaking
Players often complain that sometimes matchmaking creates unbalanced teams, and one of them loses. We have made the following fixes aimed at preserving balance in battle:
After the loss of one of your allies a random enemy will be automatically destroyed. Priority targets are ships that are the farthest from your destroyed ally.
Matchmaking will always strive to add more players to already won, even if the battle is over.
General
Players still have no idea how to fight against destroyers. We are acknowledging that, and in this update we replaced all the ships with destroyers.
Now to build your first ship you need to find parts manually. To this end, we have created a new class of ships: space suit.
