Stalkers! Friends! Dear players!

It is done! 
December 25 at 2:00 MSK on the RU server the patch will be uploaded!
Be prepared to explore the updates of the Zone! 

What's new:

1. Added the ability to zoom out the camera from the character (by default, the "~" key).

 

2. New game mechanics: underbarrel grenade launchers UBGL-30 and M203 (and also CUBGL - underbarrel grenade launcher for clan weapon). Can be installed on any assault rifle. For use requires the presence of a clip at the rifle.

 

3. New shots for underbarrel grenade launchers: 7P39 (fragmentation grenade) and FG7P39 (flash grenade). New Containers: "7P39 Grenade Container x30" and "FG7P39 Grenade Container x30"

 

4. Separate mechanic: a marker for aiming for grenade launchers, which shows not only the point of impact, but also the radius of the explosion. To operate the marker, it is necessary to charge the cartridge in the grenade launcher.

 

5. The new helmet "Spider", which can be assembled by extracting parts from boxes. Complete the old-timer quest to get the boxes and the assembly scheme. Helmet "Spider" increases accuracy and protects from bullets. Also it can be repainted.

 

You can open Iron Boxes with Picklocks, which fall from the mobs randomly. For the opening, the "Robbery I" skill is required.
