Battalion 1944: Closed Alpha 0.2 am kommenden Wochenende

Alpha V0.2 Changelog:

Maps:

ManorHouse_v2 implemented -

We’ve made massive changes to the Manorhouse layout on the ‘B long’ lane next to the B bombsite overlook barn. We did this to encourage a smoother flow around that side of the map as well as adding more aggressive and defensive options when playing around that site, ready for the future implementation of our own competitive Search and Destroy styled game mode.

Gameplay:

• Movement speed in every stance reduced by 30% across the board.
• Strafe jump distance reduced by 25%.
• Changed prone animation to be more in line with CoD 1/2/4 in order to combat drop-shotting.
• Slower transition to prone.
• Prone rotation arc distance reduced.
• 1st person & 3rd person lean distance increased.
• Changed lean move speed to feel more natural.
• Vault lag bug fixed.

• Prone block implemented -

We’ve implemented a way to remove the frustration of an old school pain - ‘prone block’. There should no longer be a situation where you want to go prone but can’t. Your player model will move to adjust to the environment around it. We’d like to hear your feedback on this feature!

New items added:

• Shotgun (Trenchgun) added for both the American & German factions -

We’d love to hear your feedback on this new addition to the game.
