New season in Crossout. Part 2: new cabin and changes to existing parts
Hello, survivors!
Today we are going to present you the new legendary cabin and tell you about its features, as well as share information about the changes for the existing tracks and certain cabins in the game.
We remind you that all the new features described in the “Developer blog” are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all. This applies not only to information about possible unique features of new parts, but also to the appearance of the parts themselves.
Light cabin “Kronos”
Thanks to the documentation of the Waderkvarn corporation found in one of their laboratories, the Dawn’s children were able to master the control modules of the Ravagers and soon began to use them for their own purposes.
Just one look at the new cabin will be enough for many survivors to want it in their collection. The mysterious technologies of the Ravagers and the refined style of the Dawn’s children create the perfect combination.
Among the legendary cabins of the “light” type, “Kronos” is the lightest one. This is reflected in the smaller mass and durability, slightly lower tonnage and mass limit, and excellent speed — this will be the fastest cabin in Crossout at the time of the update’s release. But even this won’t be the most important aspect, because “Kronos” will have a lot of power nodes, which will be connected to the cabin’s perk.
The cabin is able to gradually restore the durability of parts that are attached to its power nodes. For this, it has a limited resource, which is spent during the perk’s activation. Once the restoration resource is depleted, the perk will be disabled until cooldown. You can manually control the restoration process and enable/disable while there are available charges left. The perk is recharged by the armoured car wrecks located in front of your car (regardless if they are friendly or hostile). If you take damage during this time, then the accumulation of the perk’s charges will slow down.
Planned changes to tracks and certain cabins
Tracks
We plan to add perks for all tracks in the game.
Small track
At a speed of no less than a certain value, the spread of the weapons mounted on the vehicle will be reduced. If there are other movement parts mounted on the car, the spread reduction bonus will decrease in proportion to their amount.
Sleipnir
The track will increase the weapon rotation speed by a certain amount. If there are other movement parts mounted on the car, the rotation speed bonus will decrease in proportion to their amount.
Reinforced track
Each “Reinforced track” mounted on the car will increase the durability of all the same tracks on the vehicle by a certain amount.
Tank track
After losing a certain amount of the armoured car’s durability, its speed and power will increase. The perk will only work if there are no other movement parts mounted on the car.
Armoured track
When the player is within a certain radius of a certain number of opponents, the damage protection of his structural parts increases.
Goliath
Parts attached to the track will receive a durability bonus.
