After a long wait RUNNING WITH RIFLES beta 0.59 sees the light of day bringing along new features such as adding a server to a public list at http://serverlist.modulaatio.com, squad commands and the shotgun. Check out the full change log on the forum.
The development is now getting back to full throttle again after a few obstacles experienced in the last few weeks (moving in new home and all the mess with it, main dev PC PSU blowing up). Next up in beta 0.60, expect to see the in-game server browser and the client side prediction!
Also, starting the work with vehicles and the third map should not be that far away now..

Looking good
LUV CHU PASIK , Is there some sort of 24/7 server up somewhere for the online
Not yet. I’ll try to set up one such server on Thursday, as I’ll get myself some more network cables
Then my body will be ready
Hi!
The shotgun is rather underpowered at the moment because of the too slow reloading.
It’s already lacking the ability to lay down suppressive fire which is kind of important.
This combined with the one slug at a time reloading makes it shitty in most situations compared to other guns.
Maybe forget about reality and go for better gameplay = you automatically reload to maximum shells by reloading once?
There’s also some discussion about the shotguns on the forum http://www.modulaatio.com/runningwithrifles/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=351.
Some might argue that the current shotgun is way overpowered due to its high range, low spread and the fact that it shoots 5 projectiles equal to rifle bullets; even the single shell reload mechanism isn’t enough to counterbalance it.
Hey Pasik you should try to get “TotalBiscuit” http://www.youtube.com/user/TotalHalibut/featured to try your game and record video about it ! You would get more people interested in game!
Hi Mark, the PR people of Cynical Brit actually already contacted me in the matter. Let’s see what happens once I’m able to deliver a more mature version of RWR to them!
