Calling all Operators, As previously teased and discussed during our first community stream, and paving the way for the highly anticipated update 1.50 that will be released in September, we have a freshly out of the press update for you: introducing Black One Blood Brothers 1.49C. [h1]Main features[/h1] [h2]Operator Height[/h2] Now, you'll be able to custom your operator's height. Your enemies' height will be randomized at spawn as well.

Get ready for a mode that will push you to go big or go home. Failing critical objectives or losing all of your operators will lead you to lose the entire campaign, and you'll have to start over again. You'll be able to completely customize your campaign. And bare with us, you'll soon learn more about the different options you have to create your own campaign. [h2]Quick Orders and TacMap revamped[/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40417083/9eb66eed7142ad8c4e2d54b5fe6eecbfa221cabb.gif[/img] We heard you! To make the battle map and quick orders easier to use, Helios has made an entire rework of these elements: more accessible, more intuitive, it has never been that simple to use them. For the quick orders panel, the camera is now the cursor to set up the waypoints/points of interest you would like to set, to minimize the impact of the strategic quick orders on your gameplay.
