PIONER - patch EA 0.1.8A

Comrades! We report the release of a fix for Patch 0.1.8, which, in addition to a number of improvements, also brought a number of problems. Now the lion’s share of these problems has been fixed.

Also, due to frequent network issues, we have initiated a migration to new servers. We hope this will improve the gameplay by making the connection more stable. While the migration is ongoing, access to the game may be limited or partially limited — follow our social networks.

We understand that these inconveniences prevent you from enjoying the game, therefore later as compensation for the community we will prepare small gifts. Thank you for your patience and support in this important moment for us!

Game Improvements and Fixes

  • Fixed a critical issue with saving the status of refill crates (ammo crates, medical crates) in raids
  • Fixed an issue with calculation of purchase/sale at traders — previously traders could incorrectly calculate the deal
  • Fixed the amount of available currency at traders — removed the bug with default currency value at traders
  • Fixed several variations of game crashes that occurred when picking up items
  • Fixed the ability to achieve higher fire rate with single fire using macros
