The ultimate road rage. Calling all War Truck owners.
This month’s volatility has shaken the post-apocalyptic crypto markets. A lot of the riders are hungry for coins, and it’s time to get back what they lost. Benzene (BZN) is the only currency they can scavenge in the Wasteland, which is full of dangerous residents not showing any mercy for anyone.
Can you survive in a hostile environment full of supercharged war machines and overheating weapons, or is it a suicide mission? The all-new War Truck, improved Dune Buggy performance, increased base health of the Hovercrafts, the newly built road network and improved physics should help you along the way.
We hope that this will ease the pain for some of you while you are waiting for the Immutable X launch and crafting release. So, let’s find out who has the right to dominate the Wasteland this weekend.
Meet the all-new War Truck
The War Truck owners enjoyed the highest capacity BZN tanks and made sure to drain all of them dry a while ago. Since then, the War Trucks were mostly parked in the garages waiting for their time to come. So, we believe that it’s time to drop the trailer and dust off these mud flaps! The War Trucks just got a huge lift and increased wheel size for better traction and off-road performance.
Fixes for the Dune Buggies, Hovercrafts and the “flying vehicle” bug
In an attempt to further balance the game, we have improved the performance of the Dune Buggies and increased the base health of Hovercrafts as they are such huge targets that are usually destroyed quickly. You still have to master the driving skill of the only official “flying” vehicle in the Wasteland, aside from those that are launched by the broken physics engine, which should also be fixed now. In other words, things should be a lot better now.
The brand-new road network
The wasteland residents have been busy paving the first road network in the Wasteland, which connects most garages, BZN pumps and other points of interest. The new roads should help you navigate the Wasteland, improve transportation routes and shorten travel times. Hope there are no traffic jams or ambushes, or else you will have to stick to offroading!
The fence around the map
Another cool improvement is the fence around the map that appears as you approach it. No more confusion and sudden collisions with the Wasteland borders!
Update on crafting
We are heavily working on crafting and are not ready to allow the early tests this week. Most of the vehicle customization has been reworked, which created unforeseen problems in the game client performance. Our engineers are working on optimizing the game to deliver you the best experience possible. Read this to learn more about the upcoming crafting release.
Immutable X launch
War Riders is currently being configured by the Immutable X team to prepare for the historic launch. There is a lot of work happening in the background to launch the first-ever L2 rollup engine for NFTs, so please hang tight. We will announce the launch details as soon as we get a green light from our engineers. Learn more about the Immutable X launch here.
