UberStrike v4.4 Update[]
In lieu of the rapid development of UberStrike, CMUNE has decided that UberStrike would need an update, and true enough, on June 27, UberStrike v4.4.0 went live. This page is solely dedicated to guiding you through what exactly changed in UberStrike, and how it might affect UberStirke in the future.
Main Changes[]
Security and User-Friendliness
We carefully listened to the community's feedback and worked out solutions to bring you a safer and friendlier environment to play in. We used the time we had to patch a great amount of collider exploits, and to tighten up our security measures.
Visual Flow: Mastering the Lighting and VegetationIn UberStrike 4.4, we brought a whole lot of incredible lucidness and glow. Due to the advanced visual effects, you get a better perspective of your environment and a more sophisticated visual experience. Thanks to the renovated vegetation and lighting, we gained brand new, redesigned structures for the maps. The captivating colorful schemes will lead you to explore every corner of the maps you knew and loved!
Faster loading
Thanks to the dynamic loadout feature you don't have to wait as long for things to load!
How does it works? Once you try to equip an item or enter the game with it, you will see a green glow indicating that loading is in progress. BEFORE all items have been loading at the start of the game which took some time. NOW, you enter the game immediately and items you use load dynamically!
Something nice for our friends
For our hard working Moderators and QAs, we prepared new lobby/in-game colours.You can recognize them now by following colors:
Admins - garnet Senior Moderators - citrine Senior QAs - ruby Moderators - tiger's eye QAs - amethyst See the list of Moderators and QAs
