Time is coupons, so let’s quickly check out what’s new in the Zone and gear up for the next raid for some sweet habar. 5, we have prepared a trailer for this update — Guns & Looting Showcase is here! Characters will no longer respawn directly in front of the player.

A-Life Director will no longer respawn characters at the edge of visualization. Visualization range is slightly increased. Characters now appear in visualization range with relevant animations and equipped weapons. Added unlockable "Fix all"
