Hello everyone! We hope you're all doing well. It's been a month since our last update, where we shared that we have been working on some performance fixes and optimizing general assets throughout the game.

We thank you for your patience and empathy while we work on new fixes and ways to make the game feel better.

Next week – Release 76. As promised before, the next huge Expedition update is almost here. What wasn’t exactly promised but was hinted at is the introduction of the Ranked PvP to Shatterline. We surprised ourselves a bit with how awesome our team is, as everyone came together and gave their extra time and energy to deliver competitive mode in this update.

Ranked PvP, guys! The time to test your skill has come. Truly test, you know. Finally! No mercy! Let the bloodbath... Well, you get the point.
Thanks to our competitive community and their restless leaders, regularly organizing Shatterline tournaments, we were able to gather much-needed data and feedback on how ranked games should feel and play. It helped us a lot in development, we are very grateful to all of you competitive enthusiasts out there!

We are rolling out our test run of Ranked games, to properly assess the feature and collect your feedback. It will last for one month, but the acquired badges will be permanent, as well as the 20% match rewards boost in Ranked compared to the regular Versus matches. So get out there and wreak some havoc.
The competitive arena's size is 5 versus 5.
We’ll be playing Escort, with the 3 maps available: Escort, March, and Barracuda.
Five leagues: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond, each one consisting of four levels.
And we give out shiny badges for your efforts in climbing the ladder.

Our PvP scientists are racking their brains, doing the math behind the Ranked matches. We start simple.
The current rank points scheme is 200 points for winning, minus 90 points for losing, and 50 points for ending a match with a draw. This is a testing ground for the ranked matches and will be adjusted in the future.
A player starts with 300 ranked points and needs 1,000 points to progress to the following level.



Expedition keeps getting new content and features. In this upcoming release, we are introducing hero progression as a part of the PvE experience, available in both Expedition and story missions, Episodes.
All Shatterline operatives are getting PvE progression paths, acquiring new perks and abilities throughout their journey. The more you play one hero, the more new resources you haul from Expedition – the more diverse their gameplay becomes.

Each operative receives 5 branches of progression. Let’s have a look at what our favorite girl with magic hands, Malva, will look like.



Malvas around the world will be giving more focus on healing their teammates, as it’s becoming more beneficial to both parties with a part of the healing applied to allies now also coming back to Malva herself.
Healing applied also benefits our loyal Pinscher Drone, which stands on guard with a progression path of its own and becomes stronger further down the path. Don’t forget to take care of the Drone too, as Malva can now support her companion, healing it and making sure it grows healthy and deadly.



We are experimenting with more fun stuff to add to the game, and here’s just a tiny sneak peek into one little thing currently tested behind the scenes.



Twitch Drops are coming with this update! Look out for the Shatterline streams on Twitch with enabled drops, as we’ve finished the preparations and are ready to roll out rewards for your support of Shatterline creators.
Just last month we implemented a Support-a-Creator system into the game store. We’ve done this in collaboration with our partner Nexus.gg. Support your favorite ones!



And while we are all here – here is an XP boost for you.

Before you've even arrived on the 5th floor, things are already going wrong.

The secretive Bio Labs of the Chimera building are experiencing some technical difficulties, including rampaging test subjects, uncontrolled experiments, and virulent mutation. With the entire department descending into chaos, you'll have to fight your way through the madness to descend further...





The Bio Labs will be launching soon in the next Early Access update!

Hey Survivors,

Multi-level base building is nice. But how do you get up and down the levels?

Stairs! Obviously.

We've got em' ready with pathing updates to make sure no one is getting stuck.

What are stairs for?

- Taking high ground to defend your base
- Assaulting a fortified enemy base with enemies barricaded inside
- Making use of vertical real estate for base expansion
- Lot's more that we'll let the player community figure out and have fun with

Till then, keep surviving ... upstairs and downstairs

Attention passengers!

Fresh off the heels of our third update, we have another hotfix arriving at the station!

Here are the details of this small patch:

• Decreased minimal allowed zoom level to 0.9
  
• Made train depot add button allow player to quit add mode instead of being disabled

We are also aware of a potential crash that can happen after building rails, all type of signals, a Small Station and it's expansions, with no train connected to them, and then leaving the game to idle for around 10 minutes. This is an extremely rare crash, but we will fix it in a future hotfix.

• Added back the Open World map with a new design. NOTE : the map is a WORK IN PROGRESS and not yet completed. Performance may not be good enough
  
  
  
• Added an Arcade and Pro Drift physics mode. NOTE, both modes are EXPERIMENTAL, based on the Simcade physics mode with some different settings and helpers

• IMPORTANT : improved wheels rotation relation to engine rotation. This fixes the weird wheels slip and losing traction when doing U-turns or reverse entries. Now cars behave much better and are much easier to control
  
• IMPORTANT : improved (adjusted) some engine properties for better experience which together with the physics fix/improvement it makes the vehicle much nicer to slide
  
• Adjusted camera target look point for Action, Drift and Race cameras.
  - the look at target is moved forward related to car center which gives better look and feel
  
• Adjusted engine swap prices (previously all engine swaps costed 25K)
