Hello soldiers!

Welcome to the release notes for Update 1.20 Operation: Clear Sight! This update features two new sights, new difficult challenges to grind, mod editor improvements, and new cosmetics for both factions!

First things first, take a look at our upcoming new map, Hold, coming next update (Update 1.21 Operation: ███████). Inspired by Ministry, it features a police station caught in a violent takeover by Insurgent forces. WIP images below!

MOD EDITOR IMPROVEMENTS

Insurgency's origins are deeply rooted in modding. Starting as a mod for the Source engine, Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat led to a standalone sequel released in 2014 that we’re sure many of you are familiar with, called Insurgency, and then on to Insurgency: Sandstorm.

It's important to remember our roots, and mod support is one way of fulfilling that for the team. We know the modding community has felt left behind in recent years, especially as the release on consoles led our focus to expand. We know the modding tools have been deteriorating.

This leads us to today. We have been working with many from the modding community over the last two updates to address issues flagged for us as important and to add features that should help make even cooler stuff. This one's been coming for a long time, including addressing requests like access to our Wwise project, which is included in this update. This grants modders more creative freedom when incorporating custom sounds into their projects. A guide is available to help mod creators here.

Additionally, we've taken significant steps to improve the content-creation experience in the editor. Modders can now upload mods larger than 2GB directly through the editor. This should help streamline the publishing process. Because the workflow has changed, we've created a guide that walks through the process of creating, uploading, and updating mods.

Finally, we’d like to acknowledge members of the modding community who have stood by us throughout the years. They have spent countless hours creating awesome content that many of you know, including maps from our mapping contest, like Prison and Last Light.

TIER 3 CHALLENGES ARE HERE

In our previous update, Operation: Shell Shock, we introduced Challenges as a way for players to earn rewards while playing Insurgency: Sandstorm. We’re building on top of that foundation by introducing Tier 3 Challenges. These will raise the bar with more demanding objectives built for those ready to prove their experience and skill.

Here are a few challenges that you can expect to have to grind for:

Kill 500 enemies with Fire Support as a Commander.
Win 100 rounds without dying (good luck!).
Perform 500 headshots with a sidearm.

NEW OPTICS

As the operation name implies, we are expanding weapon customization by introducing two new CQB-focused optics that can be used across all your existing loadouts. These new attachments support close-quarters gameplay and are designed to be effective across a variety of maps and situations, including future environments.

New Security Optic: Romero 8T

Built for durability, the Romero 8T sight provides a crisp, wide-window sight picture in any environment.

New Insurgent Optic: PKO-6

Compact and lightweight, the PKO-6 sight provides a low-profile sighting solution without sacrificing peripheral vision.
