The Ball Character

A required update for Killing Floor dedicated servers is planned to be
released this Thursday. We should be able to provide dedicated server admins with early access to the dedicated server files for updating, but this will depend on how quickly we can complete our own testing and how quickly the files can be deployed to Steam. The new content pack includes:



Free content/changes

- 4 new levels - four of the best grindhouse map making competition maps polished up for official release
- New firebug weapon - not what you might think :-)
- Balance changes/fixes
- Bug fixes

Pay content

- 4 new DLC characters
- 1 "locked" DLC character, unlocked by pre-ordering <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/35460/">The Ball</a>
