NEXT UPDATE and NEWS

[A.L.E.X.]

Hey everyone,

======== FIRST NEWS ========

We prepared an update build for today, but we had an unexpected crash while compiling the game (Unity issue), so we will have to wait until Monday.

Fixed
- General: fixed email width and height
- Player: can only use police vehicle while on duty
- Vehicles: really no more flying vehicles (their mothership is gone)
- Kitten on tree: we managed to decrease the volume voice of the kitten XD (it is a woman who insist in screaming in the game)
- Vehicle: sometimes when buy a new vehicle (civilian) it spawns in wrong place, in map Center

New
- Mod: vehicle 2 and vehicle 3 (sport car and SUV) can now be modified (textures)

This will be UP at the Monday's update =)



======== FIXING BUGs and TROUBLE SHOOTING ========

We know the last update fixed the problem for many players. We know also that did not fix for some people. Please, for each of you who is still having troubles about crashs after starting career, or menu is not showing up, or any other problem with starting game, please, check the following:

- Make sure you are in the latest updated game (v1.0.2.2), you can see this when you open the game, at the bottom right of your screen
- If you already did the update, make sure you have the following folders INSIDE your game folder: DATA_Config, DATA_CUSTOMDATA, DATA_hof, DATA_Saves. We know that sometimes, these files were not created, but it was because the user (most of the times) did not update really the game
- Make sure you system can really handle the game, if not, there is not much we can do about this. We are receiving a lot of emails with old processors and / or not really enough memory, or even the graphic card. Even so, we try to help those users.
- If somehow you selected an invalid resolution for your and clicked "Confirm" in game, you can go back accessing the folder, INSIDE your game folder, in DATA_Config, open the file called pcconfig.xml and change the field called "resolution" between 0 to 4 (I recommend 4, where 0 is the lowest resolution).
- Try reinstalling the game if any of this works.
- Even reinstalling the game did not really help you, please, get in touch: [e-mail]

If you send us an email requesting support, we usually answer pretty quick, but we ask at least 24h to check all emails and answer yours, sometimes it is too much to see and we cannot answer your email in 1h.

Last, but not least, SADLY we are also receiving emails from people that is running pirated versions of the game, where they can only have the first game update and many things starts to happen with their game. So, please, do not be mad if we ask you, by email support, some of your info regarding SteamID, PC specs, etc. We just want to focus in players that really bought the game and are having problems playing it. Thank you for understanding us.



======== MORE NEWS ========

And we have more news about next version (after Monday's update) \o/

- More bug fixes (always fixing)
- Cutscene for ambulance and Tow vehicles (you will be able to see then coming in and out scenes, just a little bit more interacting than today is)
- General: go on and off duty from home or police station
- General: more police stations in other maps
- Player: flashlight option, with new animations and turning on and off
- Player: medal system, where your character will receive medals based on their actions
- Vehicles: one more type of siren for all 4 vehicles

We will have more content coming soon and we will announce as soon as we decide which ones will include.

Thank you again for all of you that is playing the game and also the ones who is helping us by sending all information for bug fixing and testing the game with us.

Have a nice weekend.

First of all thank you for the update, this game is so much better now. Anyway i found a strange bug today: it seems the fuel consumption is much higher when the car is not moving and the engine is running compared to a high speed drive (aprox. 2x higher). It would be nice if you could add a dynamic fuel consumption like fuel-=(consumption*speed)+offset. I hope you unterstand what i mean. All the best from Germany

One suggestion for a new feature: Add some NPC cops as well. Right now it seems the player character is the only cop in town at a given time which is somewhat odd considering the size of, for example, downtown.

I suppose this mechanic can be as simple or complex as you want:
Simple: one or two NPC cops spawn in the town and just patrol around in a car or on foot. You may see them write parking fines, call tow trucks, check a car or two, guide traffic and so on. They may respond to NPC's drawing a weapon / running by drawing their own weapon and following them. Simple stuff, but it would make the game more lively and random.

Complex: Musing on into more complex stuff: It could be an idea to give the player the ability to command 0-3 or so NPC cops based on player rank. These cops could - for example - be commanded to go to a certain area and do something. For example: Go to X and set up trafic scanners there. Or go to Y and check cars there.

Aside from making the map more lively having such an option could tie in wonderfully with the games difficulty on later levels. The player could be given more missions which could be assigned to his NPC cops (Eg: Let that lowely new officer i an in command of handle those parking fines today). Other missions such as the murderer missions could be scaled up in difficulty by having more perpetrators, thus ordering an NPC cop to come along could be handy. Also, there IS a certain charm to arriving at a house and seeing two squad cars with sirens and lights on already there because you ordered them to that area.

Im not sure how well a strategic layer such as this would fit in the vision you have for the game, or how complex it would be to set-up using the current codebase. Even so, i would surely vote for it if it were a suggestion on the table. After all, the "chief of police" rank seems to suggest some authority over more than one cop. :)

Amazing suggestions Excellion. I have to agree with them.
