4/8/2020 Update

War has changed. - David Hayter as Solid Snake on Wanted's most recent update.

What "Nobody Asked For"
After almost two years, in the year 2020, JustDevv released an update. This update set off a chain reaction, causing many older players to leave, as their strategies were invalidated. Still others found new ways, and learned to understand what changed to make the most use of it. Most people were just outraged but kept playing anyway. Either way, the game is drawing in more players than it was before the update.

Explosive Changes

 * Vehicles now explode much easier, even the Kendo Hayabusa.
 * Vehicle handling is nerfed, and the Kendo Hayabusa can easily flip. The Lowrider suspension is no longer overpowered.
 * Any armor, even Atomic, is much less effective. It still helps a lot though, as it can increase the time of continuous fire at a vehicle by any weapons by several seconds.
 * The PP 2000 is heavily nerfed, and the .44 Magnum is buffed significantly, even if indirectly.
 * Body shots may do more damage than arm/leg shots, as tested with .44 Magnum(?)
 * Other automatic weapons were buffed, and the M249 SAW is now the real budget killing machine. The M61 Vulcan is also considerably better.
 * Sniper scopes sway much less, making long-range attacks easy enough once any sniper is bought.
 * Explosions deal more damage and ragdoll less.
 * Ragdolling was nerfed in duration and in effect(?) but has increased in frequency.
 * The fountain in front of the bank is removed.
 * Wall climbing locations such as the bank were modified and players can no longer bound their ways down. This makes climbing up to the bank and back down much more difficult.
 * The chat menu size bug was fixed, and one can now use the vehicle shop with the chat menu open.

Trivia

 * Drive-by attacks are now more dangerous, and with the PP 2000 nerf, the game is completely changed. Now players can fight back before they get run over and potentially destroy someone's expensive car.
 * The new influx of players is not composed entirely of new players, as some were waiting for the update. Be careful joining servers, and do not assume that people in default clothes are under-equipped.
 * No items were added in this update, and prices were not changed.
