Guardians Frontline is a sci-fi VR shooter that makes you a soldier and a commander. Fight off enemies and build bases in a single-player and co-op campaign, plus PvP game modes with full cross-play support.
First all, a big THANK YOU for the wonderful reception and the massive engagement we have seen since Guardians Frontline launched on March 9! This was just the start for us, as we will continue to support the game with updates and content for a long time.
First out is a patch with lots of general improvements and fixes, below is the full list. If you want to connect directly with us and other fellow Guardians, join our [url=https://discord.com/invite/uwtvpNfkq6]Discord![/url]
[h1][b]FULL PATCH NOTES:[/b][/h1]
[b]New stuff[/b]
- Key locked Doors! Map makers can now configure doors so they only open with keys that can spawn anywhere in the level. Any key will open any door.
- The host can now kick any player out of the session from the scoreboard menu. While we don't like this feature, we believe it is a necessary evil. Please don't abuse it.
- Added a "Top rated" section to the PvP community maps browser
[b]Weapon Improvements[/b]
- The AK5 now has the magazine slot in front of the trigger to make it easier to manually reload it.
- We also increased the snapping distance of the lever so it's easier to grab.
- Modified the orientation of the AK2 Magazine to make it easier to manually reload.
- Added custom hand poses for each magazine and visible bullets.
- Renamed the existing setting that moves the Eject button to A instead of B (now "Eject clip with"), and grouped all weapon settings under Gameplay (spaceship)
- Added a new setting to disable trigger grabbing of the front of 2 handed guns. This setting will also disable grabbing the magazine with grip and the slide with grip.
- Grenades now have the pin always faced towards the opposite hand.
[b]Smooth Turning improvements[/b]
- Fixed smooth turn and snap turn not working sometimes due to the dead zone around teleport in the joystick.
