In the past two months, I have been optimizing the content and features of the game, but the current game is not suitable for updates. Moreover, Unity6 was released last month, and upgrading the engine to Unity6 will be helpful for the performance of the game and multiplayer game development.

Added prone function, AI will also prone and shoot when far away from the target. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/3b45444cb0fe0438801394725cef64f2b9e4f780.png 2.

The most important of them is the complete campaign, as well as 6 achievements. This version was originally planned as the V1.0, but because I wanted to introduce an important feature in advance, I decided to wait for this feature to be completed before releasing it as the V1.0. The E.E.R.I.E series bundle has been launched, including two games: E.E.R.I.E and E.E.R.I.E 2, with a discount of 20%.

A week ago, the v0.7 preview update was launched, but there was no announcement due to the lack of some content. V0.71 has completed some content. If you want to experience the new content of v0.71 , it is best to create a new game. Of course, the updated content also includes some key saves for a quick experience. The updated content for v0.7 and v0.71 is as follows: 1. A brand new campaign, currently lacking opening. 2. Vehicle system: ATV, ZPU1 anti-aircraft gun, and wrench for repairing the vehicle. Aim the damaged vehicle and hold the right button to repair the vehicle. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/b4fbbe15620bc2ad264c7a6d9c1df6c6048816ce.png 3. Add some equipment and clothing. 4.

The version 0.7-alpha will be launched in three days and has basically been completed. It is currently waiting for voice acting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/f3b7b59d113f607514a9818369918481dd203a0d.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/d335ed7c20aef1785c36ba65c3d8b1d1394171ae.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/9463fc63e7bec780e54c2309378d58d3071f0975.png

eerie2_road_to_tetsuki is a scene that includes forests and streets. It is the main scene of the first chapter of EERIE2. The shape is narrow and long, with a length of about 1000M. Currently, no details have been added. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/20819e605881de5d8ac42096d0b1a4972dc4a2ea.png

During this period, I produced many new contents, including new scenes, new weapon accessories, new clothes. At the same time, I optimized AI so that it can support about 40 AI in one combat without performance issue, and prepare for some upcoming large-scale battle scenes (such as anti landing ). In the next 30 days, I will: 1. Complete three large outdoor scenes and several indoor scenes in the surrounding area of Misty Lake. 2. Add P320 pistol and G19X pistol, FAL Automatic rifle, import the already made M79 grenade launcher into the game, and make accessories for existing weapons. 3. Create the first main task and about ten side tasks to complete a 2-hour play time. Afterwards, screenshots will be released every week to inform the progress, or preview updates that do not include the plot. When all the above content is completed, I will immediately add them to the game in the form of a major update Scene preview (some details have not been added yet) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/090fce9f00f8135c274faaae20dc3f346a4b0d31.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/bc8106c97255e336460b68b6c78f7a74b7bea8cf.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/e2a4ea545d935b5b3c82ace933c55275316c787d.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/069302922506a575d703f6a46b5f22b31b7f1ca9.png (Perhaps I will try adding the prone because these scenes remind me of Arma 3...)

The updates for these two weeks are still preparing for the upcoming large-scale updates, including: 1. save system: It is now possible to instantly save and load. The quick save key is F5, and the quick load key is F9. 2. UI improvement and information window, used to display mission objectives, important character introductions, and other information in the game. Currently, there is no information available to display. 3. New items: KAC600 iron sight, sailor suit,business suit, and other new items (the arm of the business suit is missing and will be fixed in the next update). 4. I have basically completed the text configuration in the game. 5. Adjust the faces of the characters to make them look more cute (except for Flan). We will continue to produce new scenes next week. As I currently do not have time to create tutorial levels in the game, I will release a guide video at the end of the month introducing the operation methods and mechanisms in the game. Players can learn in advance and prepare for the upcoming large-scale updates. In addition, M79 and the "Reisen Rabbit Gun" modified from M79 will soon be added to the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/e6db4b72699044ecad752f0b1f5b58711c2ad33d.png

Update content: 1. Change clothes: All characters now have ten parts that can be changed in appearance. Due to time constraints, all enemies use one outfit. Currently, other clothes can be generated from the weapon list of the urea tool. There is no bulletproof plate, so the tactical vest is only for decoration. The bulletproof plate will be updated this weekend. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/610f72a903cc08722cbab69f3da58f886b3eba1e.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/c44975e2b34309f1221774ec82db6557f313ae1b.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/130c8a84acc8388e5469bf91d3c5d26b6a686c23.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/69ebd615a3fdbcb0acd6d17ad77cfc8180fc0c5b.png 2.

This update includes the new weapon system and inventory system, but it also lacks some other content, such as sound effects, ui and text. Because these contents are still being produced, they will be completed at the end of this week, and the weekly update will be resumed from this week. After all the new systems are completed this month, the new level will be produced next month.

There are no information and updates released since Chinese new year, I'm sorry, I'd also like to upload my two weeks' results to the game now, but I'm worried that the incomplete system will cause more problems, so I intend to complete all the associated systems and then make a big update at the end of this month, here is the current progress and plan: 1. Final weapon system： Compared with the currently available version, the final weapon system adds the following functions: ① Complete ammunition management: press and hold the U key to unload the magazine, press and hold the R key to insert a bullet into the chamber, and press the I key to pull charging handle to eject the bullet. Press and hold the I key to check the chamber. It will form a complete ammunition management system together with the backpack and equipment system. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/8f3b05b3a778475fca92e88686508a6fc8a84586.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/6616b8dadd44fb1e36ba23245ee71d6879528347.png ② Adjustable sight: the key can adjust the range, thekey can adjust the magnification of the sight, the reticle of the sight is realistic, and can predict the dorp of bullets, and implement accurate shooting, which is more useful in the later sandbox map. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/52d954b06a75e90ea2d7d09eb1858aa8b1f91319.png{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/43495a2260cb3806a1c1e16bd7b20d7c2e7c64d3.png ③ Grenade sight: add grenade sight. Because of the increase number of sights, switch the button of switching sight to mouse wheel. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43045814/cf009ec7b654b9c54ea4fee8d621e7e4b184aa46.png ④ Others: long press the X key to open the safety of the weapon with manual safety device, the V key to turn on the reticle illumination, the U key to expand or fold the stock, which affects the speed of entering the aiming state and the shaking when aiming. 2. Equipment and gear system: The backpack system of E.E.R.I.E will return. The character will have four equipment slots: belt, vest, helmet or hat, and backpack. The vest can be loaded with bullet-proof plate, and the storage space can be increased except for the equipment on the head. Pressing R to load ammunition can not use the magazine and bullets in the backpack, but only the ones in the belt and vest, The appearance style of the equipment is consistent with that of the weapon: the more realistic military equipment and the fictional equipment with realistic flavor. At present, the system is still in the code stage. The weapon systems that are expected to be completed by the end of this month will be updated into the game together. However, due to time, the number of gears in the first update will be relatively small. 3. Gameplay after this update: E.E.R.I.E sandbox gameplay will return, and the geographic size of the level will be around 700M * 700M. Players can decide the order or completion method of the task by themselves, giving players the opportunity to explore independently and shoot in the medium and long range. The two existing linear levels will be transformed into tutorials, but this is not the content updated at the end of this month. Only a simple long-distance shooting test level will be added to the game in the update at the end of this month. 4. Other completed changes: ① Change the light mode and reflection probe background to make the weapon looks better. ② The model and material of M4 and Galil are reworked. ③ Improved pistol loading animation. ④ All weapons, accessories and characters have been recalibrated to the size in the real world. ⑤ Change the speed of the bullet according to the real firing table. ⑥ Redo the third person animation system. ⑦ Add the front grip accessories. See you at the end of the month.
