Hello everyone!
With the 1.06 rollout and hotfixes now behind us, we wanted to talk about some of the new items being worked towards.
To many of you it shouldn't come as a great surprise that we are working towards adding in the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) as the next faction to join the game. The ARVN update will include the new faction, weapons and maps and we are currently targeting this as our 1.08 build, but more on that later.
1.07, which we are working towards right now, focuses on more gameplay changes and bug fixes and we expect to release it towards the end of April. We are continuing to put a major focus on stability issues (such as crashes and performance) as well as top community bugs, but also have some gameplay changes on the way as well.
First up, as a precursor to the ARVN update, the M1 and M2 carbines will be added to the game with 1.07! The M1 carbine being a semi-automatic, 15 round mag, workhorse used by forces around the world since WWII. The M2 on the other hand is capable of fully automatic fire and equipped with a newer 30 round magazine that was not able to fit into the previous M1's.

M2
The M1 will be available to the NLF and both US factions will have the M2 to choose from.
Another new item that is going into the game is an additional critical hit zone, the spine. This will give players a centerline target across the upper and lower torso that will down players in one hit.
As we continue to work towards the ARVN faction and the 1.08 update we'll have more details and art to share so stay tuned!
