[p]Hey there AFF Community![/p][p][/p][p]As we’ve mentioned before, AFF is approaching the 1.0 release and for that we needed one final element to fall into place: The Tutorial. AFF can be quite a complicated and opaque game to the first-time player, so we needed to make sure there exists a proper on-boarding process. And to effectively cover all the aspects of the game, the tutorial has grown into quite a sizeable experience.[/p][p][/p][p]Therefore we would like to ask you, guys and gals and pals from our Community, to try and break it as much as possible - so we can polish it before unleashing it on the general public. Our Discord has already been taking it for a spin for a couple weeks, but the more the merrier![/p][p][/p][p]If you’re interested, opt into the Beta branch on Steam:[/p][p]Go to your Steam Library, right click on Angels Fall First, go to Betas, and enter this beta code: [c]saltmustflow[/c] into the Private Betas access code section. [/p][p]We are most especially interested in any soft-lock states where you cannot progress the tutorial or parts that really take you out of the experience. Just tell us what we've missed and we'll fix it![/p][p][/p][p]What you can expect:[/p][p][/p]

Dar Salaam

[p][/p][p]A two-stage Space Incursion map, offering a sprawling station to fight around and a gilded resort to rampage through.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/10243916/a3775069867025f804f4af545a64c7fa7bb05025.jpg"][/img][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/10243916/086ec47f3326bb84a3413a199c1998f700f53f6e.jpg"][/img][/p][p][/p]

Dar Salaam Territories

[p][/p][p]This Territories variant of Dar Salaam bathes the carnage surrounding the station in the light of the nearby star passing through the atmosphere of the planet which the Dar Salaam Station orbits. A fantastic space-scape to fight over, this Territories map takes place exclusively around the station’s exterior.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/10243916/64b114205ce3e89937b15fd70aa690ea28bd9bbf.jpg"][/img][/p][p][/p]

Major updates to Majuro

[p][/p][p]Capture Points A, B, and C allow for the owning team to spawn near them, a LAV spawnpoint becomes available for the team owning a point making the map control extremely powerful. The Maglev Cargo Train now has a proper warning system, sound, lights, signs and all. A lot of collision, cover placement, lighting and visuals in general have been polished.[/p][p][/p]

Arsenal Additions

[p][/p][p]Mech Flamer - a close-quarters weapon to incinerate your opponents with chemical napalm[/p][p]Harden Countermeasures - a countermeasure to harden your vehicle against damage temporarily. Decreases damage taken from the front, but makes you vulnerable from behind[/p][p]Twinned Primaries (fighters, bombers) - new weapon linkage equipment for fighters and bombers. This takes up your secondary weapon slot, mirroring your primary. It overheats faster but increases short-time damage output.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]So hop on the beta branch, take the new tutorial and the new maps for a spin, come let us know what bugs we still missed on our Discord and hopefully see you in 1.0 soon![/p][p][/p][p]Onwards and upwards![/p]
