Dear Operators, The moment is here. Black One Blood Brothers Early Access 1.50 is almost live, and we’re eager to hear your thoughts and see you in action! Helios has worked tirelessly to integrate the most requested features and fixes from the Beta Test. A special thanks to our playtesters, and extended gratitude to all active players for their constructive feedback—it’s helping us make the game even better. Now, it's time to dive into the full patch notes of this brand-new update. Please remember that Black One Blood Brothers is still in Early Access, and we are committed to delivering a better experience with each major update. [h1]Main Features[/h1] The reworked inventory and gunsmith systems are set to be game-changers: choose your gear and attachments wisely, as they’ll have a real impact on the battlefield. With a diverse range of base weapons, accessories, optics, and attachments, you can create a truly unique arsenal. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40417083/06cea176476b80bc4a3daee10105ec10d56be6f7.gif[/img] Operators have been completely revamped for more immersive and realistic animations. The patch system has also received a significant overhaul. Precision scopes have been improved for a smoother experience, and a new camo system lets you customize your weapons to your liking. The character system has been updated with new color options and tattoos visible on forearms. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40417083/9561dfbbc13b0d94c5dfc91a83971871a2947025.jpg[/img] The long-awaited pre-made squads system is finally here! If you're looking to jump into a mission quickly without configuring your squad, just select from a variety of pre-made options. The UI has been completely reworked, from the TacMap to squad management and quick orders. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40417083/746edfa30e791c143d3e25efcd13c9a5676a9c39.jpg[/img] The AI has seen continuous improvements on both your squad’s side and enemy behavior. Expect more realistic actions and better prioritization, but note this is just a step in ongoing AI enhancements. Smaller details like improved visibility of extraction zones through smoke and the ability to check ammo in your mags have also been addressed. And the cherry on top: a full revamp of the game's key art, logo, and a brand-new trailer premiering at 6 PM CEST on YouTube! [previewyoutube=ol1zbHQ_wUQ;full][/previewyoutube] As always, please report any issues or bugs on our Discord, and we’ll work on getting them fixed ASAP. Happy gaming, Kane, out.
