On August 3, the team is going to perform server maintenance from 02:00 to 04:00 UTC (from 04:00 to 06:00 CEST). Please bear in mind that you will not be able to access the game during that time.
Thank you for your patience!
Friends!
Meet the new Sniper — Aziz El-Baz! A quiet and cold-blooded mercenary raised among the bustling markets of Morocco, Aziz learned early to determine everyone’s true worth before making his move. Patience, precision, and careful calculation make him a truly dangerous opponent.
The new Agent skin is now available in the Shop, along with his signature weapon, the H&K G210 | 'Desert Phantom' sniper rifle. Don’t miss out!
Aziz El-Baz spent his childhood in the chaos of one of Morocco’s largest marketplaces, where his father was a respected merchant. There, among the scent of spices, the gleam of weapons and jewelry, and the whispers of deals, he learned the most important language of all — the language of people. His father taught Aziz to see the true value of goods behind a seller’s feigned importance, to recognize lies hidden in excessive enthusiasm, and to read intentions through the slightest gestures. “Everything has its price. To know its true value, you need an honest bargain.” It was a principle Aziz learned alongside reading, writing, and arithmetic.
The Agent’s arsenal includes the H&K G210 | 'Desert Phantom' sniper rifle. It fires in single-shot mode, can switch to short-burst fire when needed, and comes equipped with a suppressor by default, a choice for those who value precision and silence. Eliminate 1,500 enemies with this weapon to earn a special achievement.
Play, complete contracts, and recruit the new Sniper to your squad!

Friends!
We've heard your feedback (especially from new players) about the current weapon upgrade system being too complicated and overwhelming. Collecting Parts, leveling up weapons, and upgrading Mods didn't make the experience as enjoyable as it could be.
We've carefully analyzed both in-game metrics and your feedback. While many players enjoy progressing and improving their weapons, we've concluded that the current Mod system should be replaced with a simpler and more intuitive progression system.
Developing a completely new system naturally took time, but we're finally ready to share the details. Better yet, you'll be able to try it out on the first Public Test Server of the Autumn Season. Make sure to participate and let us know what you think!
Important: The new progression system is still being polished and tested. The values and mechanics described below may change based on internal testing and PTS feedback.
The system has been completely redesigned.
As your weapon gains progression levels, new upgrades will unlock automatically. Once an upgrade becomes available, it will be installed on the weapon automatically, improving its corresponding stats. There's no need to level up these upgrades separately anymore: level up your weapon, unlock the upgrade, and it's ready to use.
Primary weapons will feature six upgrades, secondary weapons four, and devices three. Each upgrade improves different weapon characteristics. Some bonuses that are currently available only through Mods will become part of the weapon's base stats.
Yes, this means some weapons will become stronger even before any upgrades are unlocked. This will be especially noticeable for secondary weapons, since their number of upgrades has been reduced to four.
At the same time, we want you to be able to strengthen your weapon immediately after obtaining it.
For primary weapons, four of the six upgrades will be unlocked for free through weapon progression, while two upgrades can be activated right away using Warface Dollars (WF$).For secondary weapons, two upgrades are unlocked through progression, while the remaining two can be purchased immediately after obtaining the weapon. It's up to you whether you'd rather level up your weapon first and unlock them later, or invest in upgrades immediately for a more comfortable gameplay experience.
The same changes will apply to devices. They'll also transition to the new system. Devices will keep three upgrades, just like they currently have three Mods: one upgrade can be unlocked immediately with WF$, while the other two are earned simply by using the device.
Example Upgrades for the MPAR-556Upgrade
Description
Extended Mag
Magazine Capacity: +6
Total Ammo: +36
Available immediately for WF$.
Dual Return Spring
Rate of Fire: +20%
Available immediately for WF$.
Tactical Belt
ADS Speed: +25%
Reload Speed: +15%
Unlocked for free through progression.
Tungsten Carbide Core
Damage: +3
Unlocked for free through progression.
Double-Base Powder
Range: +6

Long-Stroke Bolt
Recoil: −30%
Unlocked for free through progression.
Weapons that currently support both single and dual variants will receive an additional upgrade slot, allowing you to switch between versions whenever needed. This option will be available both on the Upgrade screen and on the weapon's main page.Parts will be replaced with WF$.
Although WF$ already serve several purposes, we've often heard from players that they'd like more ways to spend them. With the new system, they'll become even more useful.
At the same time, we've reworked WF$ income sources to ensure earning currency doesn't become slower than farming Parts in the current system.
Our goal is to make weapon progression feel like a natural part of gameplay—not another grind.
To achieve this, we've significantly increased and redistributed WF$ rewards. You'll now earn them from sources that previously granted Parts, including the PvE Shop, in-game events, the Battle Pass, and more.
The exact values may still change while the system is being tested, but when the PTS launches, the base amount of WF$ earned from Ranked Matches, for example, will be four times higher than before. And with Warface+, whose bonuses have also been increased, you'll be able to earn even more.
We're looking forward to seeing both your feedback and the gameplay data from the PTS in August. If necessary, we'll adjust these values before the update goes live.Reworking weapon progression also meant revisiting weapon levels.
In the current system, most meaningful rewards are earned by reaching Level 100. After that, weapons continue to gain experience indefinitely, rewarding you with Parts. Since Parts are being removed from the new system, this endless progression is no longer necessary.
Under the new system, primary weapons will have five progression levels. The first four unlock the free upgrades, while the fifth is a Mastery Level that grants exclusive cosmetic rewards for that weapon, where applicable.
Fully leveling a weapon will require roughly the same amount of Weapon XP as reaching Level 100 in the current system. However, we've taken your feedback about slow progression into account. Weapon leveling will now be significantly faster thanks to increased Weapon XP gains.
The base increase is approximately 30%, and you can further speed up progression by using a personal Weapon XP Booster purchased with WF$.
We'll closely monitor gameplay metrics throughout testing and make adjustments if necessary.
Final Weapon Mastery RewardsJust like in the current progression system, fully mastering certain weapons grants a special reward. However, not every weapon includes a Mastery Level.
For example, AK-12 does not have a fifth Mastery Level, while MPAR-556 does. Reaching its Mastery Level rewards you with the Drive weapon camo and a weapon charm.
Please note that weapons requiring additional challenges to unlock their rewards will continue to use the same requirements. These camos are meant to remain prestigious, and we want them to retain their value.Faster Progression for Starter WeaponsTo improve the experience for new players, starter weapons will level up even faster. This applies both to the weapons available when you first begin playing and to those earned by completing the PvE Campaign. With the current balance settings, you'll be able to fully master one starter weapon by the time your character reaches Rank 30.
Unlocking and upgrading Mods previously required navigating through multiple menus and performing numerous actions. The new system brings everything together on a single screen, allowing you to improve your weapon with just one click. There's no longer any need to switch between the Mastery and Mod Upgrade screens. Simply unlock upgrades with WF$ (if you choose to), then keep playing with your favorite weapon. As you earn Weapon Mastery XP, additional upgrades will unlock and be installed automatically.
But that's not all. While redesigning the interface, we also addressed one of the community's most frequent requests: more detailed weapon information. The weapon stats panel has been expanded to include additional useful information. Alongside familiar stats such as Rate of Fire, Range, and Accuracy, you'll now also see details like Total Ammo, ADS Speed, and various weapon-specific properties.
Warface features a vast arsenal, so transitioning every weapon to the new system will take time. With the launch of the Autumn Season, the new progression system will apply to all weapons released since September 2024, as well as several older weapons that remain popular according to in-game statistics.
Weapons that currently feature final progression rewards but are not included in the first migration wave will still receive the updated progression flow, allowing you to earn their exclusive rewards. However, they won't yet support the new upgrade system.
The remaining weapons will gradually transition to the new progression system as development and balance updates continue.
Naturally, a change of this scale has a significant impact on weapon balance, and we're treating it with the utmost care. Every weapon affected by the new progression system is being thoroughly tested. Our goal is to ensure that a fully upgraded weapon in the new system performs almost identically (or identically) to its counterpart in the current system.
Below, you can see an example comparing the MPAR-556 without upgrades and with all upgrades installed.
Please note that, as with every seasonal update, this release will also include the usual balance adjustments. Not every stat change is related to the new progression system. We'll share the full balance changes in the PTS announcement.
This is where we need your help. We strongly encourage everyone to participate in the upcoming Public Test Server and share your thoughts on weapon balance, both in the comments and through the in-game survey you'll receive after playing. Your feedback will help us identify any weak points and fine-tune the balance before release.
We know many of you have invested considerable time into upgrading your weapons and collecting Parts. Don't worry—your progress won't be lost. All Weapon XP will be transferred to the new system. If you already have a fully leveled weapon, it will remain fully leveled after the update.
In addition, all Parts you own (and all Parts previously spent on upgrading Mods) will be converted into WF$. The conversion rate is: 1 Part = 60 WF$.
The compensation has been carefully calculated so that a weapon fully upgraded in the current system (including fully upgraded Mods) will provide enough Warface Dollars to purchase every available upgrade for that weapon in the new progression system.
We hope the new progression system will make Warface more accessible, more enjoyable, and more rewarding to play. Be sure to share your thoughts in the comments here or on our Discord! And remember—the system is still under development. If you think something could be improved or changed, let us know. We'll carefully review all of your feedback and ideas.
Friends!

Stylish, bold, and deadly! Is it a mirage? No, it's Agent Mirage, joining the ranks of Warface Medics to showcase her combat expertise. She's also bringing a brand-new item to the battlefield: the Universal Injector, compatible with multiple classes.
Jeanine Gardier's parents moved from France to North Africa shortly before she was born. She spent her childhood in the European quarter of a bustling port city, exploring every corner of it alongside her brothers. Growing up surrounded by rough-and-tumble games and fierce competition, Jeanine developed a fearless, determined personality. Climbing harbor cranes, racing through the streets, and constantly proving herself forged the resilient fighter she is today.
The update also introduces new equipment skins for the Adrenaline Injector, Defibrillator, Medkit, and Smoke Grenade. Each device features its own unique design.
The new items, including the Agent's gloves and exclusive sticker are now available in a special Random Box. Complete the Agent contracts to receive the Agent's unique stripe and visit the in-game Shop to add other new items to your arsenal!On July 15th, the team is going to perform server maintenance from 04:00 to 07:00 UTC (from 06:00 to 09:00 CEST).

Thank you for your patience!
Friends!
We created a survey to collect information from players experiencing payment or high ping issues.
As you may know, the team is still considering deploying servers in additional regions to reduce latency for players outside the CIS.
The team is also aware of the payment issues affecting Astrum Play and VK Play accounts. In most cases, these issues are caused by restrictions imposed by the banks or payment systems that process payments. However, the team is looking for a solution to ensure uninterrupted in-game purchases for all players. We'll be sure to share more details as soon as we have them.
For now, we'd like to focus on gathering information about these issues. Please take a few minutes to complete the survey and help the team better understand where affected players are located and how frequently these problems occur.
Friends!
Following the July 1 update, some players experienced technical issues. All known issues have now been resolved, and we've prepared a compensation PIN code for everyone affected.
The compensation includes:
500 Black Market Coins;
3 days of Warface+.
Due to high demand, there may be a slight delay before the code is activated. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
To register on the website, you'll need to sign in using the email address. Please make sure it's the same email address that's linked to your Steam account.
The rewards will be delivered directly to your in-game account, not to the website or other services.
The PIN code can be redeemed once per account.
The code is valid until July 19, 2026, 20:59 UTC (19:59 CEST). Be sure to claim your rewards before it expires!

The new Glowing Blue event has arrived! Jump into the special Capture PvP mode, reworked exclusively for the event, and earn exclusive rewards from the Event Showcase, including weapons from the new Lagoon series and Golden weapons.
Changes include:
Teams switch sides every round.
Only 3 rounds are required to win a match.
An MVP display has been added.
Some matches feature equipment slot restrictions. Alongside standard matches with all slots available, you may encounter configurations where grenade slots are disabled, primary weapon and grenade slots are disabled, or all equipment slots except knives are unavailable.
Complete event Contracts to earn Black Market Coins and Reputation Points. Reach specific Reputation milestones to unlock a set of exclusive achievements.
Here's a reminder of how it works.
Use the refresh button to update the offers available in the showcase. Refreshing requires event currency.
Each refresh fills the progress bar.
Upon reaching 100% progress (20/20), you will receive an exclusive offer that allows you to claim one of four valuable items for free.
After making your selection, the remaining items from the special offer become unavailable, the progress bar resets, and you get a chance to fill it again and receive a new offer.
Cards for certain items can only be obtained from the special showcase (the 20th refresh). These offers are truly special.
The duplicate replacement system is active in the event showcase and serves as an additional source of Parts. If you receive an item that is already in your inventory, it will automatically be replaced with a Parts slot. The number of Parts depends on the item's value. This mechanic does not apply to card-based items. Discounts do not apply to this slot.
The showcase refreshes automatically once per day.
There is no limit to the number of special offers you can receive.
If you don't have enough event currency, you can purchase additional amounts. Event shop bundles containing 300, 800, 2200, or 5000 Black Market Coins are available and can help you obtain the rewards you want.
Don't forget to open all four offer slots, as they may contain items with significant discounts of up to 95%!
Friends!
A new hotfix has been installed on the live server! This update resolves several critical issues, including the crash caused by pressing R while holding certain equipment, incorrect third-person boost animations, and Ranked Match disconnects during match startup.
Fixed the bug where pressing R while holding a Smoke Grenade, Medkit, Defibrillator, or Adrenaline Injector caused the game to crash.
Fixed the bug where player boosts could be displayed incorrectly for other players in third-person view (either not appearing at all or playing without animations). Also fixed the issue where repeatedly attempting a boost could trigger the protection system and cause a game crash.
Fixed the bug where some players were disconnected from the dedicated server while a Ranked Match was starting, resulting in a disconnect followed by an automatic suspension.
The team will carry out unplanned maintenance from 09:30 to 10:30 UTC (11:30 to 12:30 CEST) to fix an issue causing incorrect event currency rewards.
Thank you for your understanding!
On July 8, the team is going to perform server maintenance from 04:00 to 08:00 UTC (from 06:00 to 10:00 CEST). Please bear in mind that you will not be able to access the game during that time. Thank you for your patience!

Please choose your callsign and clan name carefully. If either violates these rules, we recommend changing it to avoid penalties.
Thank you for helping us maintain a welcoming and enjoyable environment for the entire Warface community!
Friends!
The Summer Season is in full swing, which means it's time to meet a new agent who feels right at home in the heat, under the blazing sun, and among the sands. Meet Agent Sukhoy!
A difficult childhood, constant relocations, and a strict upbringing turned him into an exceptional mercenary who always completes the mission, never betrays his allies, and never compromises his ideals.
His weapon of choice is the SI PS90 "Desert Phantom" submachine gun, just as dependable as the man who carries it.
Peter Saakh was born in Central Asia into a military family. Discipline and order became second nature to him from an early age, as did the need to constantly move from place to place. Those relocations taught him how to quickly assess any situation, earn people's trust, and get along with everyone, from classmates to teachers. Seeing how easily Peter connected with others, his parents envisioned a diplomatic career for him. They spared no effort in his education, making sure that by the time he graduated, he spoke English, Russian, French, Kazakh, and Arabic. But diplomacy never appealed to Peter. To him, it was an endless game where the rules changed every minute. The military, even in the middle of bloody chaos, always had a mission, an enemy, and an order to follow. Peter wasn't an idealist, he simply knew that with his upbringing, military life suited him best.
Sukhoy never parts with his trusted SI PS90 "Desert Phantom" submachine gun. This reliable weapon has saved his life in countless hotspots around the world. A high-capacity magazine, low recoil, compact size, and excellent handling make it the perfect choice for demanding operations. And if things go sideways, the underbarrel grenade launcher is always ready to bring the fight to a decisive end when bullets alone aren't enough.
Agent Sukhoy is already waiting for you in the game!
On June 24th, the team is going to perform server maintenance from 04:00 to 07:00 UTC (from 06:00 to 09:00 CEST). Please bear in mind that you will not be able to access the game during that time.
Thank you for your patience!

Friends!
Looks like we've picked up a trail! Play the Brawl PvP mode and complete PvE missions, finish contracts, and earn event currency that you can spend on powerful weapons from the precious Gold Nugget series, various weapons, and other useful content!
Battles will take place on the Bridges Modern, Pyramid Modern, Port, and Factory maps.
Once players are divided into two teams, the match begins. To win, you'll need to score a certain number of eliminations before your opponents do, or simply score more if the match ends due to the timer running out. However, to achieve victory, you'll have to fight under unusual conditions using power-ups that can completely change the course of the game!Power-ups spawn randomly across the map.
You cannot pick up a power-up accidentally. To use one, you must activate it with the default interaction key, E.
You will receive one of several power-ups that transform gameplay and remain active until your character dies. A detailed description of each power-up is provided below.
When a character dies, the power-up is dropped and can be picked up by any other player.
You cannot use multiple power-ups at the same time. If you want to replace your current one, find a new power-up on the map, approach it, and activate it. Your previous power-up will be dropped but can be picked up again.
Among the available power-ups are those that increase your health, armor, and regeneration, or alter your mobility. Each one grants extraordinary abilities and turns you into a representative of a special class.
Juggernaut — You receive a heavy machine gun with unlimited ammunition, but your mobility is reduced and you lose the ability to sprint, slide, jump, crouch, assist teammates, and use boosts. The Juggernaut is vulnerable only in two locations: the head and the power unit on its back.
Grenadier — You receive a Rocket Launcher with a limited number of charges that replenish over time. At the same time, you keep your primary weapon and gain additional explosive resistance.
Pyromaniac — You receive a Flamethrower and a Molotov Cocktail while keeping your current weapons and equipment.
Ninja — The most mobile class. All of your weapons are replaced with a Katana featuring enhanced characteristics. In addition, your mobility is greatly increased thanks to higher sprint speed, longer acceleration duration, and the ability to climb onto high objects without assistance. The sound of your footsteps is also reduced.
Gunslinger — A character built around the principle of "one shot, one elimination." Eliminating a target instantly reloads the revolver.
The event showcase features weapons from the particularly stunning Nugget series: M16A3 Custom, Cobray Striker Special, PPK-20, and Steyr Scout. In addition, you can exchange coins for Parts and many other exciting weapon offers! Exclusive offers, including golden weapons, will also be available on the special 20th showcase.
All Black Market Coins remaining on your account will expire once the event ends. Don't forget to spend your savings!
By completing event contracts, you can earn a set of unique achievements.
For completing any Special Operation on any difficulty level, you will receive event currency in addition to Crowns. The amount of currency you can earn is unlimited, as it is awarded for every completion. However, don't forget about contracts and the PvP mode, as they allow you to earn more coins in less time!
Here's a reminder of how it works.
Use the refresh button to update the offers available in the showcase. Refreshing requires event currency.
Each refresh fills the progress bar.
Upon reaching 100% progress (20/20), you will receive an exclusive offer that allows you to claim one of four valuable items for free.
After making your selection, the remaining items from the special offer become unavailable, the progress bar resets, and you get a chance to fill it again and receive a new offer.
Cards for certain items can only be obtained from the special showcase (the 20th refresh). These offers are truly special.
The duplicate replacement system is active in the event showcase and serves as an additional source of Parts. If you receive an item that is already in your inventory, it will automatically be replaced with a Parts slot. The number of Parts depends on the item's value. This mechanic does not apply to card-based items. Discounts do not apply to this slot.
The showcase refreshes automatically once per day.
There is no limit to the number of special offers you can receive.
If you don't have enough event currency, you can purchase additional amounts. Event shop bundles containing 300, 800, 2200, or 5000 Black Market Coins are available and can help you obtain the rewards you want.
Don't forget to open all four offer slots, as they may contain items with significant discounts of up to 95%!
Log in every day, complete contract objectives, and earn event currency and Reputation Points. Remember that Reputation Points are awarded only for completing contracts, and they are required to unlock progression rewards. Contracts are weekly. Once completed, they disappear and become available again every Wednesday.
Good luck hunting for golden nuggets!Friends!
A new update has been installed on the live server! This version fixes several critical issues from the previous release, including equipment resets affecting some players, Ranked Match issues, and problems displaying box contents.
Fixed the bug that caused some players' equipment loadouts to reset. The XM8 Sharpshooter, which was temporarily removed due to a bug that could trigger equipment resets, will also be returned to players' inventories.
Ranked Matches:
Fixed the bug that caused the disconnected player icon not to be displayed.
Fixed the bug that caused the team status panel not to be displayed.
Brawl: Fixed the bug that caused the power-up pickup sound to be audible to all players on the map.
Fixed the bug that caused the contents of the Parts Box not to be displayed in the "What's Inside" window.
Fixed the bug that caused the voice chat icon to appear for several seconds when a player's nickname was displayed.
On June 10, the team is going to perform server maintenance from 04:00 to 09:00 UTC (from 06:00 to 11:00 CEST). Please bear in mind that you will not be able to access the game during that time.

The Sunfall season will run until 05:00 UTC on September 2, 2026.
Be sure to take part in the Sunfall season activities to earn rare weapons and camouflages!The familiar Brawl PvP mode will be available as the featured PvP activity. Here's a quick reminder of how the mode works. Once players are divided into two teams, the match begins. To win, your team must score the required number of eliminations before the enemy team does, or simply have more eliminations when the timer runs out. However, achieving victory won't be easy, as you'll have to fight under unusual conditions using special power-ups, whose activation can completely turn the tide of battle!
In addition to the PvP mode, event currency can be earned in PvE missions and by completing contracts. Collect currency and exchange it for unique items in the event shop: Gold Nugget weapons and camouflages, the Great Dragon series kiridashi knife, golden weapons, and other valuable rewards!
The Golden Trail event will launch in the first half of June. Stay tuned for more news!
A compact semi-automatic bullpup carbine developed on the basis of the FN P90. Like its predecessor, it features a high-capacity magazine, excellent reliability, and low recoil, while the new Strike Industries chassis expands attachment options and improves combat ergonomics.
The weapon's key feature is the ability to equip an underbarrel grenade launcher, which can prove decisive when bullets are no longer enough!
From an early age, he grew accustomed to discipline and strictness, while constant relocations taught him how to quickly assess situations and find common ground with everyone, from classmates to teachers. During his military service, he visited many parts of the world, and after leaving the army, he became a freelance mercenary. Having learned about Blackwood's presence in his home region, he decided to assist Warface as an informant and guide. His weapon of choice is the SI PS90 Desert Phantom submachine gun, which has never let him down.
The agent will become available in-game during June. Stay tuned for more news!
Support for AMD Radeon™ Anti-Lag 2 has been added.
Reducing the delay between a mouse click and the image appearing on screen is critically important for delivering a high-quality gaming experience, especially in fast-paced competitive shooters. In games like these, reaction speed matters, and lower latency can have a significant impact on player performance.
This delay occurs at various stages of system operation, from the moment a user provides input via mouse and keyboard to the moment the resulting image reaches the player's eyes. This is known as end-to-end latency.
While developers cannot influence factors such as input device or display latency, the game itself can be optimized to a much greater extent.
Higher frame rates have an almost linear effect on reducing in-game latency, but achieving them usually requires lowering image quality or resolution.
One of the most important factors is the delay between player input and the moment the image is sent to the monitor.
This is where Anti-Lag technology comes into play. It is designed for PCs equipped with AMD Radeon graphics cards and serves as an alternative to NVIDIA Reflex for NVIDIA GPUs.
Important! Some software installed on a user's PC may block AMD Radeon™ Anti-Lag 2. One example is RenderDoc. For the technology to function correctly, all third-party software should be disabled before launching Warface.
Game server optimizations have been implemented, including the following improvements:
improved game mode state update processing;
optimized game metric transmission;
fixed issues causing unnecessary player state synchronizations;
optimized server memory usage;
improved the character movement change detection algorithm;
increased the FPS limit for unfocused windows from 30 to 60 to minimize movement synchronization issues during combat.
Updated icons for low FPS, packet loss, and high ping indicators.
Added a new indicator for server-side anti-cheat system triggers. This indicator shows that a player's actions were considered suspicious or that commands contained invalid parameters. In most cases, you will never see this indicator, but in certain situations it will help the project team investigate false positives, which is important for proper anti-cheat tuning.
Implemented a system for removing expired items from storage.
A large number of expired items can negatively impact character stability and are one of the causes of the "Channel Change" error when logging into the game.
Expired items will now be automatically removed from storage 7 days after their expiration date.
MPAR-556: reduced recoil strength and recoil randomness during sustained fire.
PvP
Warface+
The map ban logic in the Warface+ service has been changed: once the service expires, previously banned maps will retain the same matchmaking weight as all other Ranked Match maps and will no longer appear as frequently as they did before summer 2026.
Brawl: Grenadiers and Pyromaniacs can no longer switch weapons while under the effect of a power-up.
Removed the ability to leave a group while waiting in a Ranked Match room for a battle to start.
Added a notification informing players in higher Ranked Match leagues when points are deducted due to inactivity.
In Ranked Matches, if a player disconnects from a match, they will now remain visible in the team list when pressing TAB, and a new icon will appear next to their nickname indicating that they have left the game.
Ranked Matches are now available to players starting from level 30.
Dock: the map has been disabled due to performance issues. It will return in the future after additional improvements and optimization.
Updated PvP mode descriptions have been added.
For all new accounts, access to Ranked Matches is now unlocked only after achieving 10 victories in any PvP mode.
Added a notification for squad leaders ("brackets") informing them that some squad members do not have enough PvP matches played, preventing matchmaking from being launched.
Once Warface+ expires, weapons stored in the Armory will now be automatically removed from it.
PvE and Special Operations
The time allowed for joining an already running Campaign match has been reduced to 90 seconds (previously 300 seconds).
Legacy Weapon Improvements
Cobray Striker, Steyr Scout (including their Special versions), and the Lupara Sawed-Off have received stat upgrades to bring them in line with the current weapon meta. Time to dust them off and take them back into battle!
Interface
HUD
The gradual migration of the HUD from Flash to the modern Coherent graphics engine continues. Another group of interface elements has been moved to the new technology. The current list of elements transferred to the new engine includes:
the speaking player icon;
the weapon switch panel;
the device placement indicator;
the achievement earned indicator in matches and lobbies;
the danger zone notification (for PvE);
the information panel above the character in the post-match screen;
the elimination and combo elimination counter;
the grenade fuse timer indicator;
messages about side switching, round completion, and resource acquisition in certain Special Operations;
the bomb status message in Plant the Bomb mode;
the flag status message in Capture mode;
the currency panel in certain Special Operations;
the health panel for objectives that must be defended in certain PvE missions and Special Operations;
the spectator panel;
the current stage information panel in certain Special Operations;
the quick command panel (F1–F4);
the capture point progress panel in mode maps.
Xmas Trailer Park: fixed an issue that allowed players to capture a point through a wall in Control mode.
Fixed an issue that caused squad members ("brackets") to be displayed incorrectly during matches in certain cases.
Fixed an issue where players on the winning team would appear in losing poses (with lowered heads) on the victory screen after a surrender.
Fixed an issue that could cause other players' gunshot sounds to be duplicated when viewed from a third-person perspective.
Fixed an issue that caused squads ("brackets") to be displayed incorrectly during matches in certain situations.
PvE and Special Operations
Blackout Special Operation: fixed an issue where Blackwood soldiers would not spawn if the zombies chasing the vehicle were left alive.
Fixed an issue that prevented the Blackout Special Operation from being launched on Professional difficulty.
Miscellaneous
English and Chinese localizations have been added. Players can now create characters and clans using Latin characters.
Important: some users have exploited a vulnerability on the website to illegitimately claim certain callsigns. All affected callsigns will be renamed, and sanctions will be applied to the associated accounts.
Fixed an issue where the Warface+ description text overlapped text in the About Ranked Matches section.
Fixed an issue where the voice chat indicator could remain visible in the lobby after a match ended.
Fixed an issue where pressing ESC while the TAB window was open could freeze the match scoreboard.
Fixed an issue where clan invitation notifications would reappear when receiving a friend request or removing someone from the friends list.
Fixed an issue where player names could be displayed incorrectly in the TAB menu if the nickname contained a large number of characters.
Fixed an issue where the vote-kick window overlapped the text chat.
Fixed an issue where the post-match victory screen was displayed incorrectly on monitors with 4:3 and 21:9 aspect ratios.
Fixed an issue where clan rank change notifications were missing text.
Fixed an issue where the third column in the achievements window was not displayed completely.
Fixed localization issues: added missing texts, corrected inconsistencies, and made other minor improvements.
On June 3, the team is going to perform server maintenance from 04:00 to 11:00 UTC (from 06:00 to 13:00 CEST). Please bear in mind that you will not be able to access the game during that time.
