That's it folks, we're committed on a launch date for the full game. Took a while, but we promise the year-long wait will be worth it. See you on 10 February 2025!

Our dear supporters and community, A long time ago we decided to avoid releasing smaller updates and just focus on finishing the game as a whole, thinking it wouldn't take us that long. We reconned it would be more efficient to have one release instead of countless cycles of building, testing, announcements, bug fixing and so on. We knew the game was in a good spot with plenty of content and gameplay, including the RMG and workshop*. (there's currently over 7500 maps in the 'Shop). The bad news you've already seen: NO updates in a year! The good news is that with so many new additions we worked in the meantime, it will feel like a new game once released. Bottom line is development hasn't stopped, let us cook a bit more and you will be rewarded with a great game. Here's some of the things we've done since the last update:

CAMPAIGN MODE

Of course we've added Campaigns - in fact there's now 2 Separate Campaign Types - Tour of Duty and Operation. The game will ship with 6 campaigns in total: - 2 Tour of Duty Options - 4 Operations In general, we recommend playing these with Veteran Squads. Don't rush into campaigns! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/2dc225b26abbcf848a7b130275f34851e744f71d.jpg What is a Tour of Duty?

• randomly generated campaign, unlimited gameplay
• uses a much enhanced version of the RMG
• actual missions, layout, enemies generated depend on the chosen Area
• 2 Tour of Duty Areas are included but more will come
• each day brings new random* missions but you pick the single one to play that day
• a ToD lasts at least a week, but up to you how long
• mission rewards vary from mission to mission
• Dead is Dead but you can choose to Iron Man it (or not)
• Reinforcements do come, but husband your troops carefully
• Wounds carry over and heal over time *can be modded to include handcrafted missions

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/e0a78a43e29c0a431fca7c39b541c1e9d80c03c1.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/8221550c61a59512aec27eeb7797bd6221cc3c1e.jpg What is an Operation?

• a set of custom handcrafted missions, forming a story
• missions are inter connected in a branching structure with multiple phases
• there may be mandatory and optional missions
• troops used in a mission suffer fatigue penalties if used again in same phase
• Wounds, Dead is Dead as above
• Doctrine changes are blocked while in Operations
• Sorry, no Reinforcements, things happen too fast

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/9550f03f49b8eeb648a9c661f232690e5b2ba31e.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/88e7f84b2fe1b05d54a9d8adce3ec1051b7030ce.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/26c444a8844391317c7ea2ba88cee3371f8b4846.jpg Both Campaign Types can be modded, and custom missions can be used to create your own Custom Campaigns. We expect Operations will be the popular with some mission designers (Hi DrSqua! Hi IP! Hi Pilz!) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/28aab62b7913c8ff2a13117c998c2b3c6cf35a5b.jpg Exclusively in Campaigns comes a new currency: Battle Honors. You gain BH by winning campaigns or through random events in the Tour of Duty mode. Battle Honors belong to the squad and can be used to unlock exclusive equipment or upgrade individual troops: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/ed59538adccb000795c8023afde03a580b7505e4.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/8a7723d858cf13596663f0d22aac8dfc4eed69e4.jpg

DOCTRINES

Doctrines are back, as expected, and give you a chance to upgrade and customize each squad to a playing style. Each Unit has its own doctrine tree, but Squads of the same Unit can have different Doctrine setups. Doctrines dictate if your squad uses full auto and burst fire, or keeps to single fire - and how effective they are. Its your choice, no longer ours. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/9651ba9d561976e2192057c85106f302b849ecb1.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/11c26758d27bd2146908dc1c7af05b875ebb5cb5.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/3ae578c9cf43fc176f21ea7f3922accf6917a99e.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/129e5aa6f136db5c390cc5b62a28e2d6f4edbe4d.jpg Unlike Door Kickers 1, though, you won't be able to Max Out the entire Doctrine Tree. Pick and Choose, folks - there's only so much time each squad has for training.

NEW MAPS & MUCH IMPROVED MAPGEN

The game will ship with at least 90 Single Missions (we have 90 now and a couple extra in the works that might make it if they're good enough by release day). The Map & Mission Generator was also significantly improved, especially for the Tour of Duty campaigns. Now it can generate night maps, locked doors and more layout and enemy variations. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/9ae16e3472e21feedc504d24c7f3d2df9dc4f2d9.jpg You can expect some of the old missions you've already seen to be changed in smaller or larger fashion. Don't fret, with the upcoming game reset, you won't miss a thing!

NEW ENEMIES AND EQUIPMENT

The Enemy Factions in the game (Rabble, Insurgents, Blackheads, Forbidden Tree, Private Security) each gained new troop types, but more enemy groups have been added. Enter the SSI Special Ops from Neighbouristan, the Irregulars Militia from the Capital's Slum District and their more elite House Guard faction-mates. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/0b29f26f74a10337366b8027e6b2cf41aa7103c6.png The stakes are now higher, enemies more ruthless, but there's also more variation at all enemy tiers, as Insurgents are not a homogenous bunch, but a ragtag group of fighters. And some enemies boost their friends nearby, so make sure to prioritize the Elites first! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/5526b808744f2b13ba320cf5e49aa4ca139f6ab4.png

MODDING & EDITOR

Full modding support, via Steam Workshop, will be integrated into the game, allowing for download/upload directly from within the game. To be clear, this includes all mod types, no longer restricted to maps! Some modders have already gotten access to an internal build, in order to adapt their mods to the upcoming release ahead of time. We know our players love their mods, so everyone is preparing to transition to 1.0 smoothly. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/e501dd91502d53d13987089b1508768352e73232.jpg The editor was also improved, adding more options for dynamic gameplay: moving elements, new types of triggers, custom scenario-ending conditions and more. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/03c45079d9c3a896fc53c918d1e7e8205db30baa.gif {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/eb3226f47d07e08a90b3b2b22616f96769e0f1ea.gif

OTHER PLATFORMS

Mac: the game will be released with native Mac support. This is currently in a finished state. Steamdeck: custom controls have been added, allowing for full control via touchscreen and many other improvements. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/f8f1270464db5aae29d41672a003645df5ffd33d.gif

OTHERS

- over 80 achievements have already been added and implemented. You won't be able to complete them without the 1.0 release, though. - new music tracks! - new equipment, controls, tweaks and tunings {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/d231947d0eff5b09801db92b7d3ad3ac0d264258.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/c9ea12fdfc951daf352f88a343e8f2c4151511a4.jpg

WHAT REMAINS TO BE DONE

The new content is mostly finished, what remains is mostly tweaks, recording new voices and translating the game to other languages. We can't commit in advance to a certain release date - quality is paramount so it will be done when it will be done, but we're definitely not far now! Now back to work for us, and we'll be back to this space. Your Devs @ KHG P.S. We tend to be active and responsive to player requests over on Discord: https://discord.gg/doorkickers . Come over, don't be strangers! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/b30547a5494a471796ffa20beee02be1d2cae481.png

Hey friends, Still not ready with the final game (campaign and all) but since the stack of fixes and improvements was overflowing, we're letting some of that pressure out so you can enjoy a better version of the game. But wait, there's also some extra content! 3 new maps - 2 new Tiny Troubles and a Deck of Cards addition. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/94688e129cd8835d0c0574310f74badc99603a7a.png New Enemies! The Rabble gang - which are really low level insurgents grabbing their pitchforks and rising up - get a hunting shotgun and a bolt action. Literally what they could find around the farm. They are not particularly good at using them, but they can hit hard when they do not miss. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/de816463b6813b4e6f1b193050343cbf28dd8cee.jpg New Weapons! Rangers get the shiny new M4 URG-I carbine, light and handy in combat. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/ee096be72529b3ba33ad0fcc3429f672e8bf00e6.jpg The SAD boys get more toys: the very short RSAR - subsonic rifle rounds out of a PDW-sized carbine; the M320 standalone grenade launcher they can use to supplement firepower; the very concealable and iconic PPK and even a sawed-off side by side which they can conceal for extra chaos. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/f81f14629f045d65fb945adcc267e8e559c1e3f1.jpg Oh, and you can now turn Dushkas around. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/a6e17aac9b4b4e8e55b854cdf6b7118eb42a31dc.jpg What's next? Doctrines are on final leg, pretty cool and slightly different from Door Kickers 1 era. Campaigns are shaping nicely. New missions are coming. The future is bright, but we're still releasing when it's properly done. Your Devs @ KHG Changelist for v0.36: - three new maps - new enemy weapons (side by side shotgun, SMLE Mk3 bolt action) - New Weapons (M4 URG-I, MCX RSAR, M320 standalone grenade launcher, PPK, sawed off shotgun) - Nowheraki SWAT officers can now equip a helmet - G22 .40 has some ammo options - gunshot effects (muzzle flash, tracers) are hidden if shooter isn't visible - more RMG variety to apartments-style maps - the "small" map-generator option will only spawn apartments now - added new headgear options for Nowheraki Militia and CIA Black Ops - mounted weapons can now be aimed - speed sync button now visible in waypoints menu (was previously only available via Ctrl+LClick shortcut) - speedsync and go-silent are now saved with the rest of the plan when restarting - speedsync and go-silent will no longer cancel the current waypoint when called directly on your troops - left-clicking on a deployed trooper in the roster panel will zoom-in to his location - drawing a new path from the current origin of a trooper will no longer auto-delete the existing path.

Hello, friends! We've been hard at work since the last update - and too silent. We've been developing a lot of new tech and features and aiming towards Full Release. Quality and Polish of the experience are paramount for us, so it takes longer than we've hoped to get to that version 1.0 release. We're not there yet! We're not ready to put most of the stuff we've been working on out there, but we wanted to release some improvements and fixes - and of course some new content for you fine folks.

So here's what's new today:

(There's also lots of under the hood or stuff - take our word for it.) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/810391727f8a0ac68b88a2bd686303a1a8f2c4ca.jpg New content: 5 New Maps can be found in the Tiny Troubles 2, Deck of Cards and Extreme Rescues 2 Mission Packs. And many improvements to the Mission Generator too! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/c2639e6fb6079aebd3f11521c77e74693074953c.jpg To help with Situation Awareness and keeping your squad under control, a handy panel pops down from the upper left corner of the HUD. It shows the current status of each trooper and what gear or weapons they are currently using. And you can use the panel to quickly center the camera on a trooper - just left click on their portrait. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/eeb14411ce766c10975f1d7d6ec14b8cfe23d6fb.jpg Your troops can now operate the Dushkas and engage the enemy. They're quite deadly, but mind the limited traverse speed and arcs. And no, you can't climb on vehicles and man those guns - but neither can the enemy. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/4c5343d032e22e849ab77daf00e08f22e237efcc.jpgNew weapons! The Nowheraki boys got their hands on the intriguing SVU-A, a marksman rifle in bullpup format: handy for urban warfare and capable of (very wild) automatic fire. They also got handed down pump shotguns from Coalition forces. Hope they can source the ammo, though! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/057e8911e1b83792c70169cfb3369eef9db60d7f.jpg You can now set up your troops to sync their speed (to the slowest of the group). Ctrl-Click assigns a sync order to a particular troop or waypoint, and he syncs with those that are setup the same. You can use this to keep a formation or clear an area in sync with other troops. This way no one goes ahead of his buddy - even if they are on opposite walls of a large room. More sync options and experiments might come in the future - but let us know how useful you find this. As for Steam Workshop improvements, we've added tags to missions, which should make the Workshop easier to navigate. However, you'll need to update your map (via the Editor) since the tags are added automatically by the editor when you publish a map. Until you do that, tags will have limited usability since they will only filter a very small part of existing maps. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/d106f45614529b84eb61ded82d38bea9b8391698.jpg We've also gathered some incredible new workshop maps in a fresh collection. Check it out, one of them has an actual pyramid in it: (click the link, embedded seems to be bugged) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2973956618 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2973956618 Last, but not least, we noticed you like Mods and keep producing them, downloading them, using them. We're still not ready to open the Workshop for all mods, but we've added an in-game mod management page: instead of mods being auto-enabled, you now need to manually enable them in the menu. So, this is it for today. But what comes next? More gear, weapons and missions of course. Doctrines for sure. But further than that, we are working on two campaign-like Game Modes. One of those is the Tour of Duty mode, which has you take a single squad through one week of daily missions. Managing the squad to survive the Tour is not easy, and combining this with the (optional) Iron Man makes for a very high challenge. But that's all we'll reveal for now. Full changelist of today's update below, and you can start playing. And full speed ahead till the next update, for us! When will it come? Like always, quality comes first. Your Devs @ KHG Changelist for v0.35: - 5 new maps - added trooper list in UI - your troops can now use mounted guns - Nowheraki SWAT can now equip the M500 pump shotgun and the SVD-U bullpup marksman rifle. - mission generator: many upgrades including faster generation and more variation. Still no night-mode, sry - coop: can now play single while waiting for someone to join - experimental speed sync (click + Ctrl on a trooper/path to enable). All nearby troops with 'speed sync' enabled will move at the same speed - enemy AI improvements - taking a big damage hit has a chance of making humans flinch (mini stun that resets weapon aim) - improvements for existing maps - savegames are now backed up and have a lower probability of getting corrupted - tweaked AI reaction to grenades (they react slightly before the first impact) - reduced duration of smoke generated by frags - in-game UI improvements - previous squad is used when going into the next random map, instead of the default squad - many tweaks and improvements to in-game UI and actions - optimized replay skip/fast-forward speed - warcrime detection - fixed enemies set to stand (investigate chance 0, ambush 0, range 0) going after enemies they've lost LOS to - added SA24 and small mortars as sabotageable items - many other tweaks, fixes and improvements - fixed several issues related to how waypoints show up on items (can no longer place slaps on cleared windows, can no longer clear windows with metal bars in front of the glass etc etc) - fixed enemies throwing frags & using launchers around friendlies - fixed paths not being saved when no deploy slots were present - fixed paths not being shown for auto-deployed folks when planning - fixed sometimes incorrect detection while crouching in cover - fixed couple of bugs with jumping over obstacles - fixed some bugs related to AMD's latest drivers - fixed DOT areas working through walls - fixed number of stars going negative - fixed showing danger zones in replays - fixed troops getting stuck when arresting a hostage and hostage died - fixed hostages being saved even though their saver died in the process - fixed ammo AP level not interpolating correctly over distance - modding: now mods are shown in a game menu page. They need to be manually enabled. - modding: full update of the humans rigs to include all available dummies - workshop: maps will now be auto-tagged accordingly, allowing for easier Workshop navigation - workshop: much improved loading time and quicker sorting when subscribed to a large number of maps - workshop: fixed several bugs related to Workshop Missions - workshop: fixed not being able to update published maps when you had over 50 of them - workshop: auto-tags for maps - editor: new interactable entities (see help_entities.txt for details) - editor: added option for cropping the map canvas - editor: added option for hiding Target lines - editor: moved the Open Editor button from main menu to Your Creations - editor: added layers. Entities can now be assigned to layers (View->Show Layers Bar), with one layer being randomly picked at map start. They can be used to more easily randomize map elements like lighting, fog and wind. Bear in mind that (like alternate spawns) adding obstacles to Layers will break any pre-made plans. - editor: new prefabs and items - editor: high-res png screenshots are saved with transparency - editor: increased center-selection cross size

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/651c3a3f0e6fe26adb4f12708cf1d94a78d7ffcc.gif We really weren't going to release a patch until end-of-September, but the latest AMD drivers screwed OpenGL games, so emergency release it is! But you also get 3 new maps, and some deadly new threats! Issues with AMD graphics cards Have you been experiencing strange artifacts like unreadable text? You are not alone! Starting with driver version 22.7.1, AMD has introduced multiple visual bugs to our game (and all others using OpenGL). We tackled as much as we could on our side, but for now you should revert to an older driver version (eg 22.5.1), until AMD gets their fix together. Issues that still remain (and cannot be fixed on our side): - very bright screen (white-ish) when the game is paused. This one can be fixed by disabling MSAA - broken in-game UI (like paths) for night missions when the NVG effect is enabled - bad performance - longer game load time - possible crashes Enemies can now man the DShK Heavy Machine Gun You know those cool MGs that were placed throughout the levels, but the enemy never touched? Now they can and they will. They are very deadly and your armor is no good against them. Luckily, they're not very accurate nor quick to turn. And in the future you'll get to man them yourself. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/f663d0f0810b87ef4579ca0585255a2f60d0a209.jpg RMG Factions The Mission Generator has received many upgrades and improvements. Among those "under the hood" changes, it now chooses among several enemy factions to populate houses with. You might get just random Insurgents as before, or Low level cannon fodder, Forbidden Tree fanatics, Blackhead Elites and even the armored Private Security! And you might even meet some new guys here and there ;) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/e2bee9ac5af9ea63f40b7a402a1d0a2c2d3af4d2.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/ccf1d62a8e1d9fa001ebdffe5609d906563cf346.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/0ae275436cb2e1a3d146b6a6930166fabcfa7f01.jpg It's not all Random maps, though - 3 handcrafted have been added. Two of them are small and violent delights, but the last one is a meaty Extreme Rescue - your typical Single Planner Course - a large building with hallways, hostages and hotspots. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/8bbabed158541dcb6f84ab9b22cd7d264fb763ff.jpg Last, but not least, our intrepid workshop mice have dug through the content and made a new collection. Enjoy: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2857167016 Patch out, and come meet us in person at EGX London! Your Devs @ KHG Changelist for v0.34: - 3 new maps (find them in Give No Quarter, Tiny Troubles 2, Extreme Rescues 2) - made DsHk machineguns usable by enemies and replaced in most levels where appropriate - greatly improved the random mission generator algorithms and tile set - added enemy groups to the Generator. Now you don't always fight the same Jihadis. - added "Play random workshop map" option - workaround for multiple bugs introduced by latest AMD video drivers - fixed game sometimes not saving progress - many other improvements and fixes to UI and gameplay - many fixes for existing maps - coop: the "friends only" option can now be unchecked, allowing you to host custom maps - modding: updated Blender plugin - modding: fixed not being able to mod editor fonts - modding: added new Editor objects and prefabs

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/6e6f33c35f724f4d156e261400db09a2bb83198a.jpg Hot Summer, scorching heat here as in Nowheraki, what better time to pull Quick-Reaction-Force duty and respond to unforeseen situations! Friendly drone down in enemy territory? Drop in and blow it up. Allied Operators in danger of being overrun? Move to link-up with them and bring them out safely. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/c38b9af5bf9c032fbe45b8112d37ea0c48ebfd84.jpg There's two new missions to showcase these situations, but mission builders can actually create 3 similar situations on the QRF pattern: - rescue survivors - blow up sensitive equipment - rescue survivors AND blow up sensitive equipment, the full plate To make mission building easier you can now setup VIP and allied characters as directly in control or needing rescue, straight from the mission editor. And since we hear night missions are pretty popular, there's also a fresh new NVG-enabling map: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/22af0b1b3df3ae267731980ed43d8cfc7f2d2e90.jpg The update also brings a ton of quality improvements and, more importantly, new editor features, which enable really interesting possibilities for the future. As usual, we went through the workshop maps and hand-picked some very creative and well-built maps, made by established creators as well as new blood: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826761943 Patch out! Your Devs @ KHG full (or rather, cherry-picked) changelist v0.33 - 4 new maps - new mission type: Quick Reaction Force - redesigned in-game tooltips - improved Random Mission Generator (more variety, less bugs, faster) - added 'Detailed Mission Results' screen - improved visuals for UI and fonts when running the game in lower resolutions - camera will now focus on mission-ending events - improved enemy ambush and look positions (should no longer shoot at walls when suppressive firing) - added option to always show sussy areas when playing concealed - decreased the path collision radius of humans - audio will now auto-switch to the current output device, without the need of restarting the game - when dead people drop firearms, they will be dropped with all attachments (used to be only base weapon) - when humans pick up dropped firearms, they will be picked up with all attachments (used to be only base weapon) - sorry Santa, your hat got nerfed - sped up trooper pointing anim - coop: rescued troops/VIPs will be allowed control to the one that saved them (instead of server-only as before) - coop: fixed being able to trigger other players' GoCodes - coop: fixed a crash - coop: less bandwidth usage - added put_out_fire animation - no longer unpausing when pressing the stop suppression button - HVTs can escape through pre-placed escape zones - removed the "save plans" option (it's always on now) - fixed friendly troops sometimes lowering their weapon with no valid reason to do so - fixed TAB not always toggling correctly between visible paths - fixed incorrect/different order of actions on saved plans (on doors etc.), especially in coop - fixed still showing Danger Areas if no concealed troops were deployed - fixed Sprint auto-stopping when running into VIPs - fixed savegames becoming corrupted in certain situations - fixed VIP rescue missions failing when troopers are killed but the ambassador is still controllable - fixed enemies not picking up dropped weapons once they surrendered - fixed bug where santa hats would jump over things too fast - fixed doors icorrectly showing as closed when they were actually opened in some situations - fixed camera movement speed being fps-dependent - fixed saved plan allowing you to interact with objects that would spawn in a different place than initially planned for - fixed a case where you could get stuck on Jump actions - fixed bug where you could go inside a window - fixed not being able to set look-at actions (anywhere on the path) when human was jumping - fixed clothelines blocking FOV - fixed bug where untoggling Sprint command would not work properly - fixed crash when AIArea was defined outside of map bounds - editor: new entity - sfx_custom - can pick any sound to play (from the in-game library) as well as edit any available sound param - editor: new entity - Spawner - can spawn any entity when triggered.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/642624b280828714c7fcd7522c8eb6912a852b4f.jpg It's (small) patch day, and start of a week-long 10% discount. This will be the last discount before the game price is permanently increased, as announced in the Early Access manifesto - so it's probably your last chance to get it for this price for quite some time. Previous owners of DK1 will always have a 10% discount, via the 'War on Doors' bundle. We still have a lot of content to add and improve until the game is fully released, but we feel that in 1.5 years of Early Access the game has progressed immensely and it now deserves a higher price point than DK1. This update brings a ton of quality-of-life improvements and many needed fixes, while also improving the compatibility with the Steam Deck. There are still improvements to come on that front, not the least of course proper touch-based interface for those inclined to play that way. Patch out! Your Devs @ KHG changelist v0.32 - hostages auto-run to rescue zones when close enough - suicide bombs detonate when owner is killed by explosives. - rebindable keys (wip) - fixed not being able to re-conceal after escorting a hostage to the rescue zone - fixed civilians hiding in forbidden areas - fixed enemies going to take cover in fires - surrendering enemies now crouch - enemy SR3M is now (properly) AP vs level III protection - enemy FALs have increased crit but no longer shoot AP ammo - nerfed sapper armor slightly - buffed 7.62x39 weapons slightly - tweaks, improvements and fixes for several missions - reduced stutters when playing back replays - tweaks to foreign advisors, Emir and suicide bombers - tweaks to SWAT Leader M4/M203 - and added Suppressed option - the SWAT Leader AK47M SF Carbine now has a proper 3d model - fixed accuracy issues with projectile launchers (was different from preview) - fixed crash that would happen when loading maps on some hardware configurations - fixed several other rare crashes - fixed coop replays not being recorded properly in some situations - fixed a few animation glitches when arresting enemies - fixed enemies reacting to non-deployed troopers - fixed issue with some optics not being placed properly on the firearm - fixed a bug with order of execution of waypoints - fixed a bug where multiple humans waiting for a door+grenade (without gocodes) would not wait properly - fixed savegame files sometimes becoming read-only and no longer being able to save - fixed a bug where trooper won't advance after placing a wall charge - fixed some cases where enemies fail to pick up weapons or act stupid around them - fixed hostages being stuck inside of collisions - fixed lightning no longer working as intended - fixed dropped weapon physics acting crazy - replay cinematic mode: no longer rendering red ghosts and sniper target - modding: updated blender exporter - steam deck: added custom controller configuration - steam deck: fixed touch input not working properly - steam deck: fixed virtual keyboard not showing up - steam deck: allowing a larger zoom-in

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/513487e6410a4f894492ee5993775c69c0fc71c5.jpg The Nowheraki Insurgency is heating up! Fanatical Foreigners have entered the country and take part in the fight against the US-led coalition, but the primary victims of their attacks are the locals. It is only fitting that local law enforcement and ordinary people take up arms to fight the outsiders. Enter the Nowheraki SWAT - a mix of Police Officers, Army Reservists and Citizen Militia, all united by their hatred of Crazed Jihadis and trust in the AK platform. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/72e1125077908268d9897c793fdcfb88c5770c20.gif SWAT may sound like police, but these boys are ruthless warriors adapted to the realities of Middle East Urban Warfare. They bring light machineguns and grenade launchers to the table - and even Sappers! Only these handle explosives, but they might do it better than the Rangers did. Oh, and did anyone mention Shields? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/493a484d1e2774f5437769975008c9b343cff8d1.jpg Shields can help with specific situation and they do block some incoming fire, but never consider them a panacea for poor tactics and weak coordination. They're a tool in the toolbox. No Urban fight to the death would be complete without Molotov cocktails, so the SWAT people pack those too. Grilling bad guys can be fun, but beware of friendly ... fire. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/cb2453aa57464f96cf53a0f006df0106c623c278.jpg Game and Tactics Improvements go further than a new unit. Mission Designers can now place restricted Deploy Slots in their levels - allowing only High Mobility or High Concealment units to access those spaces. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/b257f61fb82a1b4b0adad2f31a9002c509d5a47e.jpg On the tactics front, Actions and waypoints that are tied to the same Go Code will automatically sync properly. So, troopers will wait for the flashbang thrown by their buddy to detonate, even if no door is involved. Synchronization just got easier! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/5abbb9672cb0592e519dbeac1b1de2751e087551.jpg Full Changelist below. Enjoy your new Unit and Maps, and let us know what you think!

Greetings, fellow Door Kickers, This patch focuses on the Random Mission Generator, which was long overdue to get some love! First, you can now generate more mission types, but the generator pattern and mission structures have also been improved. Enjoy Randomly Generated Hostage Rescue, people! Trust us, it changes everything. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/af68bd354388d0c101318b34c136581cad2ce65f.gif Second - you can also play RMG and workshop mission in Coop! Coop for everyone! . Additionally, you can now host a coop game on any map, whether the other players have it or not, be it from Workshop or your creation. By the way, the RMG panel It has now been moved to the Missions menu - Scroll down to find it - and it works the same when you choose missions in Coop! There's also a new map in the "Never See Never Be" mission pack - Fergie returns for some explosive sabotage action, but needs backup and a good plan. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/a5561d2613682f12f2055aa9b890a02df33bb7e2.jpg Handy for such a CIA-run operation, the AK74 family carbines now get some interesting ammo choices. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/bcb1a47d45d6736063669a78c068788a11e2a6c9.jpg Since context is everything, we've also started adding briefing info to the missions, and you awesome mission builder types can do too! Check out first mission pack - FNGs Welcome. So, just one official map, but our intrepid Workshop-addicted have produced another Workshop Map Collection, great maps that we want to highlight and you should definitely try: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2760033347 This would be all for now, we'll just go back to anxiously reading news of our Northern border.

Winter Solstice time is here, the longest night of the year - a perfect occasion to sit down and reflect on how best to approach Tactical Operations during hours of darkness - cause Night Ops arrive to Door Kickers 2! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/5a1e162ba5acb680135526a93f3f6136f1da0509.jpg There's a couple new Night Ops oriented missions for you to try, but we've also updated some of the old missions to better reflect that they were, actually, taking place in the dark. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/f50aa19e8faf06a1ea7b32c67b7db1d37392405e.jpg What's different? Darkness now conceals you, while lights reveal you. Enemies will spot you only at close range when you're hidden in the dark, and will engage you with less precise and effective fire even when you're spotted. Well, enemies with no Night Vision of their own, {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/0e85e697351fd583b24d20b6aff2073994b009e8.jpg This works both ways, so make sure to equip Night Vision Goggles to see without being seen - or both you and the enemy will stumble in the dark, unsure of what's out there. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/f8a525bd7e0cc7bb5dc4720d52eb6c9e5f1a69ef.jpg Muzzle flashes break concealment and reveal positions, so equip suppressors when possible. They don't hide you completely, but they help to keep the enemy guessing. Speaking of guess work, select maps now feature the promised - "cut off the lights" option, so do try to use that to your advantage. Most importantly, hide until its time to strike, and strike decisively - don't give the enemy any chance to react. So get playing, and let us know what you think! This is most likely the final update for 2021. A fun but challenging ride, one we couldn't weather without you fine folks. But there's much more to come :) Your Devs @ KHG, signing off. changelist v0.25 - added night mission mechanics - added helmet customization (with NVGs as attachments) - two completely new maps - eight existing maps converted to night missions - grenade/rpg explosions will now block line-of-sight for a fraction of a second. - changed shortcut for the click-to-stop action to SHIFT+click-to-stop - fixed several bugs/issues related to replays - fixed workshop maps not being sorted correctly - hostages and ambassadors can no longer open locked doors - rocket launcher + gocode: now equips RL, then waits for gocode - CIA Undercover can now equip 1x Grenade Packs, for more concealment - fixed 'go silent' global setting not being saved on restart - fixed a bug where hostages would not go to evac zones when ordered - fixed timebombs not always doing kill damage around them - fixed/improved bullet spread and accuracy up-close - fixed blindfiring enemies being very accurate - fixed borderless mode flickering screen when alt-tabbing - fixed windowed mode flickering when alt-tabbing in HDR mode - fixed not being able to select path endpoint when overlapping with set waypoints - fixed wait-here gocode subtracting explosives when used near a wall - fixed not being able to use breaching charges on a wall near an opened door - fix for replays in cinematic mode showing edge-of-screen portraits - fov camera is not editable - fixed a bug in Linux + Proton - the CIA vanilla G19 now has a threaded barrel and can be suppressed - many other fixes and improvements, but in a hurry to catch Christmas

Ok, fine, we've added suppressors, so stop bugging us about them. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/99807be711448dac697a0b0fcea007437d57b57d.png As we've said before, suppressors in Door Kickers 2 don't make guns magically silent, unless there's also a subsonic ammo option that you equip. They do help to create confusion, and they do reduce sound report a bit, Most importantly, they'll help when hiding in the dark - when we implement night missions, that is. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/dbc3a4b5b665dfa9503c740775d80f10c9bd1d47.png And ... we've also made it that you can click on troopers to HOLD them in place, so stop bugging us about that too! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/5334d0842ef95bf43b2c2c5e4f174acf6ddbfc30.gif Click to hold, click again to release. And you can even click on a path to add a simple "hold here until released" waypoint if you don't have time to create a more thorough plan sync. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/369adf8b3155a2fd3adbc2048f8652774d532f27.jpg New edge-of-screen unit markers have been added. Both for friends and enemies, should help with coordination and orientation on larger maps. And ... there's a new (and very basic) option to change your key bindings between two presets. Basically its a choice to Pan the camera with Arrow Keys or WSAD. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36746170/087e4bf04bbfe8fca154bc9094f62339b05dcba8.png

Coop improvements

We haven't changed many things for coop lately, so a few improvements were in order. First of all, when playing full-sync mode, opening the waypoints menu will no longer pause the entire game, allowing you to continue playing immediately after choosing an action, without blocking all the other players as well. You can still pause the entire game though, via the pause button (or Space key). In the future we'll probably improve upon this again, by only pausing the specific trooper you're right-clicking on, instead of the entire team. As always, let us know what you think about these changes. We've also done a bunch of work on the stability/performance side of things. The required bandwidth has been decreased a bunch, making the game more reliable on slower connections and no longer requiring to have a very good connection in order to host a 4-player game. We also fixed some cases where the game would crash when playing over a faulty connection due to some packets being fragmented and/or mangled.

Price increase incoming in January 2022

As stated in the Early Access description, the base price of the game will increase once the game releases (targeting the $25 price point). We decided to do it gradually, increasing the price in two steps: one price increase starting next year, then another one before the game is fully released. A year has passed since the game was released in Early Access, in which time the game has grown immensely in terms of available content, so we feel a price increase at this point is well deserved. So this year is your last chance to get the game at the current price point. The game will also be participating in the Steam autumn/winter sales, with 10% off.

Modding support

We're committed on making DK2 more moddable than DK1 ever was, via better/smarter tools and more openness towards sharing source assets and code. As you know, for the moment we only added support for maps on Steam Workshop, and not other kinds of mods, due to the game engine suffering massive changes while in Early Access. Full mod support will be added before release, but to prepare things ahead of time, we're starting to release source assets for 3dStudioMax, which you can use as reference to make your own. For this update we've added the source file for our animated human characters, as well as 3dstudiomax integrated exporters for our own file format. The tool we use is not that accessible though, so we're looking to make the transition towards Blender, which is a free-to-use 3D modelling software. By the way, if you know anyone that can help us with programming a custom Blender exporter for our assets, give us a shout :)

Replay compatibility

This update invalidates existing replays again, but we're taking measures to avoid breaking replays ever so often. What we're currently working on is a way to keep old game versions as well (since replays are tied to the data in those versions). To keep the size of those old version very small, we're doing this in a smart way, where we only keep files that are different from the current version. Therefore, when trying to play an older replay, the game will jump into the required game version and still be able to run the replay. It's not ready yet, but we know how much it sucks to lose those cool plays, so just wanted to let you know we're working on it. Your Devs @ KHG (P.S. Just kidding about the "bugging", mates. We love feedback, on forums and via emails or elsewhere. Our ears are always open - bug us as much as you want.
