New Operation After 2 Years 5 Months And 26 Days
We have received new operation after waiting over 5 years! Shattered Web is here and is amazing!
Featuring new Agents (22 new CT and T models), new maps (Lunacy, Jungle, Studio) and three new weapon collections (54 new skins) including 4 new knives (Nomad, Skeleton, Survival and Paracord).
You can read about Shattered Web Operation in our recent post.
More information available on Valve’s blog post here.
Famas And Galil Comeback
- Increased price of SG553 to $3000 to bring its price more in line with its value.
- Reduced the price of FAMAS and Galil by $200 (to $2050 and $1800, respectively)
- Improved full-auto spraying accuracy of FAMAS and Galil.
Seems like Famas and Galil will comeback with style on force rounds. The price drop is significant and we will definitely see an increase in usage. Famas is an amazing gun after all.
Danger Zone Changes
- Buymenu price adjustments for ssg08 and radar jammer.
- Minor timing adjustments for locked door and safe interaction.
- Automated sentries now fire M249 bullets.
- Added killfeed icon for automated sentry.
- Added more explosive barrels.
- Tablet crate icons now show an above/below annotation if significantly above or below the player.
- Minor change to zone effect visuals.
Be aware! Sentries will shot your ass with M249 bullets. More damage incoming. Anyways, how do you deal with them?! Just joking, of course with your knife.
AWP | Hyper Beast’ and ‘P90 | Nostalgia’ updated to correct wear at Factory New.
Pearlescent Coatings For Workshop Items Update
We have added support for applying a pearlescent coating to weapon finishes. Pearlescent coatings use ceramic crystals to reflect and refract light, splitting it into different colors as the view angle changes. This effect can be used in a number of ways to subtly enhance your weapon finish or make drastic changes. The new Operation Shattered Web collections have some weapons with pearlescent coatings to illustrate some of the ways this new feature can be used. The Workshop Workbench has been updated to include this feature so you can experiment with adding this coating to a weapon finish. Using higher values will make the color bands tighter and more frequent and using negative values will flip the spectrum to start on the opposite end. It should be noted that this coating will shift the hue of your weapon finish so parts with no saturation, and therefore no hue, will have no pearlescent effect. We look forward to seeing what interesting applications you come up with.
