[Ранний доступ] Postal 4: No Regerts 0.2.1.0 “Dream of Scooter Fournication” Update

Игра поддерживает х32-битные ОС или нет?

It’s update time! We’re still hard at work on Wednesday content for a future update, but in the meantime, here are many of the new features we promised you in the last developer update!

The scooter no longer sucks! Not only can it handle rough terrain better, it will also go up and down curbs like a boss. Furthermore, it will no longer flip over for little or no reason, making it a joy to bumble around on. But the awesomeness does not end there! As you can now live out your wildest mobility scooter drive-by fantasies, because It’s now possible to use one handed weapons while operating the scooter. While we were there, we also improved the model and sound effects as well as adding more colour variations. You’re welcome!

We’ve had many requests to bring back the sawn-off shotgun that was included in a POSTAL 2 update back in 2013. Well, we decided to go one better - Introducing The FOURNICATOR quad-barrel shotgun!

Our ongoing mission to improve the in-game cinematics continues, and this update brings a massive improvement to the Prison Guard intro cinematic.

We had a lot of feedback that people are not too keen on how we have the weapons grouped together currently with the quick selection keys, so we’ve added the option for you guys to customize what weapons are under which numerical keyboard key on the keyboard.

We’ve included two new features that are not yet finished but are still in a good enough place to showcase. Fluids now roll down hills and slopes, and you can expect visual improvements here in a future update. We’ve added a new emote wheel, which you can activate with Alt Fire when you are not currently holding a weapon. We plan to expand on this with more dialogue and better NPC reactions in a future update.

And naturally, we’ve fixed up a lot of bugs and crashes.

Please keep on reporting bugs, giving us your feedback (We read it all and are acting on much of it) and thank you once again for your amazing support.

NOTE: We’ve switched to Vertical FOV calculations which should finally fix the problems ultra wide users were having. You may have to change your settings. Also, going forward, all saves from a previous build will be flagged red. You can still use them, but there may be problems. It’s recommended that you start a new save file to avoid issues.

ADDED
The Fournicator (Quad-barrel shotgun)
Emote Wheel!
New Scooter! The model and general usability has been greatly improved to make it a lot more fun to drive. We’ve also added the ability to use one-handed weapons whilst on a scooter as well as more color variations!
Here you can see the new suspension system as well as fenders which move and are destructible. You can also see how after falling, Dude will properly ragdoll and the scooter will flip itself up every single time:

We are full steam ahead on Humpday and making some great progress! It will be a while before it’s fully ready - so we are going to make sure you guys still get regular updates in the meantime to introduce cool new features, quality of life improvements and various bug fixes.

The headline feature here are the footprints. When NPCs, The Dude or an animal walks through any type of fluid, they will leave a trail of footprints behind. You can even light the ones left by gasoline on fire!

Regarding the new randomized codes in the prison introduced in the last update - we heard you, they suck. We have now implemented a post-it note to the map screen that will record each code as it's assigned. No more backtracking to the previous cell because you forgot the code!

This update adds a new quality of life feature when rebinding controls. The game will now warn you if you’re trying to rebind the same key to multiple actions.  

And a few other odds and ends listed below!

This is THE UPDATE many of you have been waiting for - A SIGNIFICANT PERFORMANCE UPDATE! Our work in this area is far from done, but many of you will enjoy a framerate boost of around 10-20fps in some of the worst affected areas. We will continue to improve performance throughout the rest of the project.
Related to performance - we’ve rewritten the mouse movement code so in the event the game does hitch, you will no longer end up facing the wrong direction, making remaining performance drops far less intrusive.
Beyond that, this update improves kicking behaviour and animation. It’s now far easier to kick around physics objects and ragdolls. Oh, and you can also kick cars when using Vitamin X, too!
Prefer projectile based combat to melee? We have you covered! Introducing a new weapon - The Flare Gun!
Our ongoing work to improve the cinematics continues with the Tag Turf, Bellow and Cat dude Intros all getting a pass.

This is simply a small update to fix a persistent hitching issue that around 50% of users were getting, where there a was frame hitch every 3-5 seconds  happening consistently.  Sorry it took so long to sort this out - this bug was elusive and took us a lot of trial and error to track down, but it has been our priority as it pretty much made the game unplayable for a huge number of you.

We wanted to make sure this fix was added as soon as possible so did not add in anything else that that will need further testing - but bigger overall performance update, along with plenty of new content, will be with you around the time of Realms Deep!

ADDED

Three new zones

Border Land
Overview:

The “Border Land World” is located in the southwestern-most part of town. This tile is part of the Commercial District zone where many of the larger businesses are situated. It also includes the portion of the town located in Mexico, hence the name of the tile.

Since this tile is on the border and includes the Mexican portion of the town, of note is the border crossing and its trademark landmark, The Wall. It serves as the sole entrance into Mexico in the game.

Visually, there’s a contrast between the US portion north of the border and Mexican portion south of the border.  However, the south-of-the-border area of town nonetheless functions in a largely identical manner, albeit with the Mexican visual twist.

Retail
Overview:

The “Retail World” is the southern-middle part of town. This tile is part of the Commercial District zone where many of the retail shops and larger businesses are situated. Some commercial offices are found here as well. Covering the entirety of the border along the southern edge is The Wall.

Of note is that this tile, true to its name, contains the most highly concentrated number of business establishments.

Ghost Town
Overview:

The “Ghost Town” is located in the central westernmost part of town. This tile is part of the Historic District zone where the town’s aforementioned ghost town is located. This is also where the poorest of the town’s poor congregate in the dedicated shanty town/ghetto.

In keeping with the old west theme established by the ghost town, this area is distinguished by its dry, dusty, desert atmosphere, even more so than the rest of the town’s desert areas. Expect to see tumbleweeds and dying, yellowed shrubbery.

New missions!

Meet Associate

Errand description:

Tuesday's Meet Associate errand is immediately assigned at the beginning of the day and sends the player to meet his new boss-of-the-day following Bellow. You will have to take an underground detour using the town's now newly (re)opened subway system (Using a placeholder location at the moment) which conveniently has available stops between these two districts. Come Wednesday, the rest of the stops will be available, making four total between the four districts around town.

Aside from that, the other major part of this errand is the cutscene where we meet the new boss and his faction: El Plago and his Los Oscuros cartel who operate out of Edensin's South-of-the-Border Land.

Border Smuggler

Errand description:

The short of the errand is that the featured Border Slingshot acts a mounted turret you can aim and fire with your "ammo" being the American immigrants you're launching over The Wall border into Mexico. The task here is set up as a target range challenge where you must successfully aim at floating holographic targets. If you miss a shot or fire an immigrant which is spotted by the Border Patrol, you still need to launch more immigrants over The Wall, but at this point hostile Border Patrol officers will also be spawning in waves to fight you.

Tag Turf

Errand description:

The one special gimmick in this errand is the use of the new Spray Paint Can weapon on the designated Billboards (You can activate the color wheel by holding RightMouseButton). The majority of this errand features combat against a new group, the Sensitive Hipsters.

Pet Shop Delivery

Errand description:

On Tuesday, after his meeting with the Mexican Luchadores boss El Plago, the Dude is sent on a delivery mission to bring a nondescript package to a local Pet Shop. Upon his arrival and descent into the building’s undisclosed underground storage facility, he discovers the place is actually a front for a drug lab. Not one to be remiss in his duties, though, the Dude braves the toxic fumes swirling through the air to complete his delivery, only to pass out on his way back to the exit. In his fume-addled hazy mind, he hallucinates himself having turned into a cat, suddenly believing himself to be completing a day’s list of feline-based Mini-Errands. Cat-based catastrophes ensue.

After turning into a cat, Dude (or Dude Cat) needs to complete three mini-errands.

Pay Fine

Errand description:

Here, the player is offered two branches to follow: Pay the fine by performing community service as a Meter Maid or manually dropping his ticket into the conveniently located drop box. Taking the Meter Maid route means roaming the town's free roam areas looking for illegally parked cars to ticket to meet your fine quota. Upscale cars can be ticketed more, but the vehicle's owners will respond with hostility. Going with the drop box route happens to trigger the station's lockdown mode, and the player will need to head to the Lockdown Terminals in the Security Offices to manually disable it. The station's Armory can be unlocked as a bonus!

The gameplay mechanics employed here aren't just for this errand. The Meter Maid will become available later in the week as an optional job/Side Quest to earn more cash. The lockdown mechanic in the Police Station remains a constant in this location, acting as the regular challenge to doing things like stealing from the evidence room, stealing from the Armory, gaining access to the Super Evidence Room, and so forth.

Load zones! Due to absolutely no demand, a feature form POSTAL 2 has made a return! They are far quicker with fewer of them compared to P2 though, so they probably need a rebranding… lets call them ‘ZAP ZONES’*
*ZAP ZONES are hopefully only a temporary solution to the level hitching issues in POSTAL 4 and we aim to reintroduce full level steaming in the future when we’re doing our final optimizations. We’re pretty sure you’ll agree the trade off is worth the results in the here and now.
