LWRC SMG-45, HK G28 and FN FAL DSA-58 hit the store till the 29th of January.
LWRC SMG-45 and HK G28 are available via Random Kredit and Crown Boxes, while FN FAL DSA-58 can be found exclusively in Random Kredit Boxes.
LWRC SMG-45
In terms of combat specs, LWRC SMG-45 is a hulkier version of the UMP. It can dish out the highest damage of all Engineer primaries and is capable of killing with a single shot to the head. To offset this strength, we’ve given it a lower rate of fire, harsher recoil and restricted its effective range. SMG-45 also comes with two unique attachments:
Landing killing blows with LWRC SMG-45 will unlock custom achievements.
HK G28
When it comes to combat stats, HK G28 is a totally different breed. The rifle allows its user to be effective at any range, as its unique collimator sight accommodates for medium to close range encounters. Alongside versatility, G28 excels in delivering substantial damage — two shots will be enough to take any target down, while a single headshot will be lethal. To add spice to the mix, this German DMR’s not too needy on recoil and boasts a competitive rate of fire, while the Golden version grants an even greater rate of fire and an increased magazine capacity.
Let’s take a look at the broad selection of attachments available for this rifle:
Schmidt Bender 3 4.5x fast zoom scope
Vector Optics Maverick 2.5x zoom collimator sight
HK G28 suppressor: reduces noise, conceals shooter’s location at the cost of reduced damage
HK G28 flashguard: removes muzzle flash, reduces damage drop and recoil
Vertical HK grip: reduces rifle sway while standing, increases weapon selection/deselection speed, increases reload speed
Master this rifle and land killing blows to unlock its special achievements!
FN FAL DSA-58
The FN FAL comes equipped with a unique tactical grip, DSA-58. This is a considerable improvement in terms of handling the weapon, drastically increasing the accuracy when fired from the hip. Custom high-powered munitions allow it to deal increase damage to arms and legs in the game, as well as granting it improved damage at greater distances.
Use this weapon wisely! The laser module allows for easier targeting, though the red beam will definitely stand out in poorly-lit environment. It’s important to note that the beam does not blind your target, even when pointed directly at them.
FN FAL’s high damage and range values challenge the usual limitations of the class, which makes it a favourable choice for PvP. Extra range translates into extra seconds to take down classes that need to close in on you, and while facing snipers you’ll be able to win these very few seconds for yourself.
An almighty shop update is here! Direct sale welcomes regualar and golden Honey Badgers with Type 97, while the store also features brand new SAP6 along with "Nuclear" and "Yakuza" weapon skins that can be found via your inventory.
Honey Badger
Engineer's Honey Badger is a superb personal defence weapon, and thus is best used in close quarters combat. Built upon the time-tested AR-15 configuration, the PDW features an integrated suppressor, thus making it a fine pick for stealthy missions.
The PDW can be placed rather high in the lists: it can deliver plenty of damage a shot at a steady rate, yet the real deal is its effective range – rivalling that of some assault rifles – and reload speed. Accuracy is not something to take into account – you only have to find the firing pattern you’re most accustomed to.
Both regular and golden versions have been buffed in today's update and can be obtained via direct purchase. Don't forget about a glorious stripe you can get by not giving a ... disposing of 999 foes with Golden Badger! As well as other achievements you get for 10 000 and 25 000 kills respectively.
Type 97
Riflemen are getting Type 97 rifle. Thanks to its high damage and excellent range, this gun is effective practically at any distance.
Obtain special stripes of Type 97 that descended from heaven with the buff granted by today's update!
SAP6
Let's start off with highlighting its forte from a gameplay perspective: it's a pump-action shotgun that directly addresses one of the primary issues — reloading speed. Magazines allow you to reload the shotgun considerably faster than the conventional pump-action ones.
Moving up to other perks, SAP6 is a promising gun with a high rate of fire and excellent damage. This shotgun is a direct competitor to the MAG-7 and Fabarm STF 12 Compact with relatively similar rates of fire, accuracy and mag size.
Please note that to obtain the presented weapon camo, you need to navigate your way to the desired weapon in your inventory (you must possess this weapon) and enter the "weapon skins" section.
Today starts the new season of Ranked matches 2.0 featuring a lot of rewards, including one of 12 unique achievements. Don't miss your chance to obtain cool prizes!
NEW SEASON
The new season starts today and will end on February the 19th, 23:00 UTC. Ranked matches will be conducted on all “Plant the Bomb” and “Blitz” maps (excluding "Platform").
THIS SEASON OFFERS:
Mind-blowing weapon skin series: “Sapphire” and “Jade Dragon” for reaching the higher leagues;
Random boxes with skins for reaching the higher leagues;
Warface Dollars, Crowns and Boosters for advancing to each next league;
Achievements for advancing to the required leagues;
You can always track your progress in your account overview on the site.
PROGRESSION AND REWARDS
In order to advance between leagues, you need to win consecutive matches. As you climb higher, you will have to display better prowess, flexibility and persistence. At the same time, you won’t drop down instantaneously if you happen to lose — you will have a chance to recover by winning a series of matches. If you fail to use this opportunity and continue to lose, you’ll roll back to the previous league.
Important! It will be incredibly tough to drop out after reaching the first league — you will have to lose 9 matches out of 10. This has been implemented as a preventive measure to let the top contenders master their skills to perfection while enjoying the competitive scene, without worrying over losing their rank.
ACHIEVEMENTS
All participants that win at least one ranked match will receive the “Warface Ranking Matches League” mark.
Top contenders that finish the season in the first league will be able to proudly fly their “Elusive Avenger” stripe. Please note that if you skip a season, you’ll have to wait until the 12-season cycle is complete to try and earn that achievement again!
The absolute champions that collect all 12 stripes will receive a unique badge, “Best of the best!”.
The January update has just gone live, bringing changes to a range of weapons, a new “Sanctuary” map for “Free for All” mode, SAP-6 shotgun and much more. Check it out!
NEW “SANCTUARY” MAP
Queue up for FFA and you might end up on a Pacific island, similar to the one you’ve seen in the Special Operation “Sunrise”.
Sanctuary combines thrilling aesthetics and action-packed gameplay. Throughout its development, the map received immense attention from the team to make it a truly enjoyable and memorable experience.
The map can be split in three key areas:
Waterfall residence
Road
Temple
Versatile Riflemen will make the most of the open grounds by the temple and in the waterfall residence courtyard, mobile and destructive Engineers and Medics will dominate the closed quarters in scattered buildings and alleys, while Snipers best take to the vantage points at the edges of the map for better map control.
It’s worth noting that one of Sanctuary’s distinctive features is the channel crossing the map that will help you cover your tracks and escape pursuit.
We’ve opted for the same eastern setting as depicted in Special Operation “Sunrise”. However, seeing as this is a PvP map, objects have been overhauled to make the map and the environment more “readable”. Learn more.
SAP-6 SHOTGUN
This game update brings SAP-6 pump-action shotgun to the Arsenal. This effectively makes it the second Legendary-tier Medic weapon, as is the case with three other classes. It boasts a competitive rate of fire and high damage, easily becoming one of the best pump-action shotguns in the game.
It boasts a competitive rate of fire and high damage, easily becoming one of the best pump-action shotguns in the game.
As any other Legendary-tier weapon, SAP-6 comes equipped with a bright red 1.3x Fast zoom C-More collimator sight that increases accuracy when aimed.
Expanded "Yakuza" weapon series
The set receives one weapon per class: HCAR, MAG-7, CZ Scorpion Evo3 A1 and Remington MSR. Moving on to the sidearms and melee weapons, the set will also be featuring M1911A1 and the Balisong knife. If you already own the regular versions of these weapons, you will be able to get “Yakuza” skins that can be applied to them!
Yakuza are as striking as ever: dragons, fierce masks and cherry blossoms are the all-time classics, never out of style.
Each newly added gun comes with its own achievement, awarded for 15 000 combat kills with that specific gun. Once unlocked, these stripes can be pinned on your profile!
