Great news! The game has been completed and thoroughly tested.
Therefore we have decided to reschedule the game's release a month ahead of time.

Await the launch on May 31st, and brace for a great adventure!

Greetings, Survivors!
Sorry for not writing one of these in a while, things are chaotic (as always) and I am super busy (also as always). I know I originally intended the Resistance Report to be released every two weeks, and I’ll do my best to get back to that cadence.

We’re hard at work developing the next update. There is already a lot of theory spinning about what its major feature is, which I really enjoy reading!
It’s not time to reveal what exactly we’ve got in store yet, but if you follow us on social media and join our Discord server you too can obsess over everything we post. It is highly recommended, we try to read through all your interactions. And yes, I can confirm that some of our recent messages on there were indeed teasers for the next update. Happy theory crafting!

In parallel to the new update, we’re working on some pretty in-depth performance optimization. During in-house testing, we’ve found some surprising effects in bugs appearing with certain PC specs. That is why we’ve released a public test branch to gather as much data as we can on issues connected to these improvements.
But in order for this to work, we need your help!

If you’d like to help us test this iteration, here’s how:

• Right click GZ in your Steam library
  
• Go to Properties -> Betas
  
• Enter code qZvOkNujkd1VlKf
  
• Download the patch and start playing!

If you want to import your savefile:

• Head to Documents -> Avalanche Studio -> Generation Zero -> Saves -> (Your Steam ID)
  
• Copy the file called savegame
  
• Head back to the Saves folder
  
• Go into experimental_gz_test -> (Your Steam ID) and paste the savegame file. This folder is created after starting the game once.
  
• Do NOT move the file, copy it!

After that, please report any bugs you find in the dedicated channel on our Discord server or in the thread on our Forums! We appreciate any help making this round of performance fixes as smooth as possible.

I’d like to reiterate my thanks to everyone who ordered a Tick Plushie when they were on sale back in December. It was heartwarming to see that it had such a positive reception. Unless they’re stuck in traffic, they should all be safe in the hands of their new owners now.
Lots of you have sent us pictures of their new plushies via Twitter or Discord, we love to see it! Please keep doing that and telling us what you named yours.


That’s it for this week. Thanks for reading the Resistance Report!
The Swiss German word of the day is “grüezi”. It’s the formal version of “hello”! Make sure to pronounce the “e”, don’t say “grützi”. Looking at you, Germans. We always like hearing grüezi, especially when passing someone in a forest or on a mountain (in those situations it’s often shortened to just ‘zi).

See ya!

Journey through the heart of the Natural State with the upcoming Arkansas DLC, where every bend in the road unveils a new story waiting to be discovered. From rolling Ozark hills to the mighty Mississippi River, this DLC promises a virtual road trip brimming with adventure and charm. Here's a sneak peek at some of the towns you'll encounter along your scenic drive!


Nestled in the beautiful Ozark Mountains, Hardy is renowned for its downtown area filled with historic buildings dating back to the late 19th century. Truckers can explore this town while travelling on U.S. Route 63, which is the main highway running through Hardy.


DeQueen is the county seat of Sevier County in Arkansas with a population of just over six thousand people. It is an important intersection of multiple routes and the U.S. Route 71. The town is home to the DeQueen Lake and the Sevier County Museum.


Magnolia was founded back in 1853 near the southwest border of the state. Its roots lie in agriculture, but after the discovery of oil near the city in 1938, it became the largest-producing oil field in the USA during the Second World War.




Siloam Springs is located in the north-west of Arkansas where the southern plains meet the Ozark Mountains. Founded in the late 19th century, the city was known for the alleged healing powers of its spring water-feeding Sager Creek, which flows through its downtown.




Conway is the county seat of Faulkner County, situated in the state's most populous area, Central Arkansas. Conway was originally founded in 1872 as a railroad town, and is now home to three institutions of higher learning, including the University of Central Arkansas, earning it the nickname City of Colleges.


Russellville is the county seat and largest city in Pope County with an estimated population of almost thirty thousand citizens. It is located on the southern edge of the Ozark Mountains and north of the Arkansas River. In the 1970s, Arkansas' only nuclear power plant was built just outside the city, on the beautiful Lake Dardanelle.



Nestled in the southeast of the state near the Arkansas Delta, Lake Village is named for its location on Lake Chicot, an oxbow lake formed by the Mississippi River. The town has a rich heritage with nine properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places.




Truckers can find Hamburg not too far away from Lake Village, in the southern part of Arkansas. Surrounded by fields and forests, it is a popular destination for travelers seeking a taste of rural Arkansas life. The town also hosts the popular Armadillo Festival every year since 1970.


We hope you are excited to explore all those beautiful scenic towns while keeping in mind that this DLC is still a work in progress. If you are excited about the Arkansas DLC, make sure to add it to your Steam Wishlist! Stay tuned for more updates by following us on our Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

The F-4E, first flew on the 30th of June, 1967, and entered service in 1968. It became the most numerous version built with 1,397 examples manufactured. The “E” is distinguishable from other variants by its internal centerline 20mm M61A1 Vulcan cannon, with 640 rounds.

In addition to the internal cannon, the F-4E includes an impressive variety of air-to-air and air-to-ground weaponry. In air-to-air combat, the F-4E can employ both radar-guided AIM-7 Sparrow and infrared-guided AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles. The F-4E is a very powerful fighter that, in the right hands, can be a potent dogfight adversary. In the air-to-ground role, the F-4E offers a wide array of unguided bombs, rockets, and guided munitions like the AGM-65 Maverick, AGM-62 Walleye, and radar-seeker AGM-45 Shrike.

Heatblur created a deep-simulation of the F-4E radar and Pave Spike targeting pod that accurately mimics the operation, strengths, and weaknesses of these systems.

Leveraging the “Jester” AI system, Heatblur has expanded and improved upon this system to provide unique and intuitive means to work with your AI Weapon System Officer in the back seat. Whether you're engaging in historical missions, testing your skills in dogfights, or simply enjoying the power of the beast, the F-4E delivers an amazing level of detail.
