🔸 Added a new, unusual submachine gun rarely seen in games – PP-2000.
🔸 Changed the handling of ammo, boxes, and magazines to make them more realistic: to load magazines from boxes, you need to hold both the magazine and the box; to load the magazine with single ammo, you need to hold both the ammo and the magazine. However, it is still possible to put ammo in boxes even if you are not holding the box.
🔸 Improved the first two missions, according to players’ feedback, to make them more accessible: mission items are now easier to find, the number of monsters and anomalies has been reduced, their location has been changed, and the initial tutorials have been improved.
🔸 Significantly improved aiming and adjusted firearms to make the gunplay experience more complete. New aim input smoothing will work with all types of sights and even without them when shooting from the shoulder.
🔸 The Kolkhoz Zarya and Pechorsk Castle locations have been improved – new environment details and areas for exploration have been added, and now they have more interesting places and loot stashes.
🔸 The Committee has decorated the base for the upcoming holidays. In each location, you’ll find a pack of sparklers that will bring you into a festive mood.
🔸 Ammo boxes placed on fire will explode as many times as many rounds there are in the box. Single rounds always explode; they don’t just disappear in the fire.
🔸 Knives thrown at Fragments no longer disappear when a Fragment dies.
🔸.357 ammo can now be placed into a side pouch.
🔸 Wrapped paper is no longer removed from the ramrod, and the black paper that used to break ramrods has been removed.
🔸 The Shine Bright achievement no longer requires an Atom Artifact.
🔸 Support for new effects from BHaptics has been added. Experience your raids in the Pechorsk anomaly in full contact!
🔸 Mechanical sights on some guns now work better and are more accurate.
🔸 Improved game audio: added new music for starting locations, important announcements no longer play simultaneously, fixed some sound bugs, added new sound effects: knife hitting wood and plastic, dart falling to the floor.
🔸 Improved shadow performance.
🔸 Optimized graphics, improved special effects, and improved overall performance.
🔸 The flashlight no longer causes the fog wall to flicker under certain conditions.
🔸 Cigarette packs no longer get stuck in pouches.
🔸 Fixed bugs related to text notes.
🔸 Fixed the appearance of jammed weapons.

🔸 Explorers! The Steam Awards are upon us. The Labor of Love category refers to games that have been released quite a while ago, but still get consistent updates to this day. If you feel like Into the Radius deserves this award, we would be grateful if you voted 😌

🔸 ITR is also part of the Steam Autumn Sale which will last until November 29th! So now’s a good time to grab it if you or someone you know has been waiting on a good deal. See you in the Radius 👻

🔸 Fixed an issue where save files would take up too much space.

🔸 Fixed several issues causing memory leaks.

🔸 New locomotion mode: Blink! To help people that suffer from motion sickness we introduced an alternative movement mode. It works by selecting a point to move to and moving the player there in a fast and linear way, as far as possible. It doesn't prevent anomaly damage or allow access to otherwise inaccessible places.
🔸 New Guns. We are adding some long awaited classic firearms: FAL, Desert Eagle, M14 and Glock 18c.
🔸 Items are not scattered on death, but are put inside a backpack on a player's corpse to prevent item loss and streamline recovery.
🔸 Improvements to various game sounds, volume balance, and fixes to multiple audio related issues.
🔸 Added new small points of interest, additional covers and places to loot in Pobeda Factory, Kolhoz Zarya, and Bolotki Village areas.
🔸 Spectre scope zoom is now 4x by default and 1x when switched, not the other way around.
🔸 Updated ladder grab/climb sounds
🔸 Drastically reduced the frequency of mimic phrases so they don't bother so much by the end game.
🔸 Added VFX to the healing booth.
🔸 Updated certain texts and lines of dialogue.
🔸 New VFX for artifact reveal and anomaly grass interaction with light
🔸 Added the option to interact with drawers,doors and various other stuff with Grip instead of Trigger.
🔸 Different weapon sounds depending on the distance it is fired.
🔸 Ammo can be loaded by contacting a not held ammo with a box in hand.
🔸 Improved seated mode.
🔸 Performance improvements
Fixed During Beta
🔸 Fixed multiple crashes.
🔸 Fixed bugs that made anomalies larger than their intended size (especially lightning), making some of the clusters too hard or blocking artifact retrieval altogether.
🔸 Removed debug red arrows very rarely appear after bullet impacts.
🔸 Fixed toilet paper pieces sometimes not spawning anymore.
🔸 Fixed bullets not properly ricocheting from dense surfaces.

🔸 Fixed a sound bug occurring during critical hits.
🔸 Fixed the visual textures of certain guns.
🔸 Fixed an issue when the pointer would get stuck on your backpack in Blink mode.
🔸 Fixed positions for the VSS, VAL, and DVL magazines.
🔸 Fixed bugs with the player’s corpse and a backpack that could lead to poor performance and other technical issues.
🔸 Fixed an engine issue that would result in one of the most common game crashes.
🔸 Improved optimization (we’re always working on this one).
🔸 Improved seated mode.
🔸 Minor visual improvements in specific locations.

As always, the beta has its own save folder and the saves will be compatible with the live version, once 2.4 goes out of beta. To access the beta go to Steam, Select Into the Radius game, Manage>Properties>Betas> select “active-beta”.

🔸 New weapons : Glock 18c, FN FAL, M14 and Desert Eagle chambered in .357.
🔸 Tweaks and fixes to Blink locomotion. Changed stamina usage, fixed vignettes and edge cases. Added footstep sounds and tutorial steps.
🔸 Ammo can be loaded by contacting a not held ammo with a box in hand.
🔸 Performance improvements
🔸 Added or improved lots of smaller sounds around the game.

🔸 Fixed slower movement when looking down
🔸 Fixed some sounds not adhering to volume controls
🔸 Fixed crier artifact constant sound bug
🔸 Fixed web anomalies absent in game

This is the first half our 2,4 update! Yes, Beta 1 includes only half of this update, but it has one of our most highly requested QoL features - Blink locomotion mode!

We are looking forward to your feedback on this feature as it can make the game more accessible to everybody. It can be accessed in the Controls section of in-game Settings.
