Crossout Mobile
Hello, survivors! We want to tell you about some of the planned changes that will appear in the game with the 1.34.0 update.
We increased the maximum range of a number of weapon types. This change will prevent the situation when projectiles explode in flight, although they could have hit the target if they continued on their trajectory. This case was the most noticeable with rocket launchers and autocannons.
Large-caliber miniguns:
1. Reaper: maximum range increased from 110 to 300 m, damage reduced by 5%.
2. Rumble: maximum range increased from 110 to 300 m.
Rocket launchers:
1. AT Bee: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m.
2. AT Wasp: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 5%.
3. Snowfall: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 5%.
4. Yokai: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 10%.
5. Pyralid: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 5%.
6. Cricket 1M: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 5%.
7. Waltz: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 5%.
8. RL-9 Helicon: maximum range increased from 160 to 500 m, damage reduced by 5%.
Comment: after several balance changes, “Helicon” is still too powerful even for a relic rarity weapon. The present changes are intended to reduce the efficiency of its perk. We are aware of feedback from players asking to remove the ability to use the weapon’s perk at the same time as its normal shot, but it is not possible within current balance changes. We will consider changing the mechanics of the perk in the future if the current changes will prove to be ineffective. We are also aware of the strategy of using the “Helicon” with “Icebox”. This exploit will be fixed in the future by moving the “Helicon” and “Waltz” rocket launchers into the “rotary rocket launchers” category. Since the “Icebox” only boosts course weapons, “Helicon” will no longer be too powerful when used with it.
