Update 0.17
We’ve added a couple new weapons, reworked Shatter Caps, and enhanced Discord detection!
New Weapons
Heavy SMG
High-caliber submachine gun designed for mid-range engagements.
Fires slower than traditional SMGs, trading rate of fire for increased damage per shot and improved stability.
Ideal for controlled bursts and consistent TTK at medium range.
Double Barrel Slug Shotgun
Precision-based shotgun with devastating slug rounds.
High damage per shot, rewarding accuracy and fast follow-ups.
Sticky Launcher (Temporary)
Experimental launcher firing explosive adhesive grenades with delayed detonation.
Note: This weapon will be removed in the vanilla launch.
Weapon Mods
