[quote]How's 2021? Does it smell nice? It smells of burnt gunpowder. Less so than the previous year, though.[/quote] Hello everyone, the world finally made it through 2020, so here's a treat to start out the new year! The full changelog can, as always, be seen at: https://github.com/BSVino/DoubleAction/blob/develop/CHANGELOG.md

Highlights

Melee Rebalance

This attempts to balance brawl-centric styles of play with other playing styles by making the following changes:

Bring gun brawl (stock attack) damage down to the current level of regular melee attacks, so that you cannot 1-hit-kill people with 100% health even if you have the bouncer's melee buff unless you have a heavy weapon (Persuader/Vindicator/Black Magic).
Melee attacks can now no longer be held down for more than 5 punches. People have been abusing the full-auto nature of melee attacks using console commands and this fixes that.
Style bar usage for melee attacks is now based on the damage potential of the attack.
Akimbo Stallions/Sentinels now have the same melee damage as a single Stallion/Sentinel

Diminishing certain bonuses over time

[olist]

After winning a race/dropping off a briefcase/killing the wanted, you are rewarded with a super style meter. This meter's depletion rate is now doubled every minute. The initial depletion rate has been halved to compensate.

When chosen as the wanted, you get healed every time you kill someone. This heal will now halve every minute. The initial amount of healing has been doubled to compensate. [/olist] This will mean that even experienced players will no longer be able to hold on to these bonuses for an extreme amount of time.

No longer automatically dropping weapons to make room for weapons picked up from the ground

This stalled people too much in case the game dropped the wrong gun. Press G to drop manually. The old behaviour can be restored with the "da_drop_overflow_on_pickup" variable.

Other changes

Add Russian translation for the menus by Louie
Fix a race condition in the vote kick system allowing people to survive a kick vote by reconnecting at a certain time
Make da_version_server respond in rcon properly
Changed a few drums from prop_physics to prop_physics_multiplayer in order to be able to walk through them.

What now?

The official servers have been updated or will be updated once they have drained of players using the old version. All other server owners have been notified about this update and will probably update their servers to the new version very soon. You will not be able to find servers that haven't updated yet with the in-game server browser. However, you will be able to find them using the Steam server browser, but trying to connect will yield a version mismatch error. I recommend using the in-game server browser until all servers have updated. Servers updated so far:

SimRai (most)
Superfall Boogaloo!
dr.N0s

Servers not updated:

EMR (notified)
HomeRcide (notified)
Jim's (no contact info)
[ju:nien] (notified)
karn's (notified)
Knalltten (notified)
OurDare (no contact info)

Double Action is a free stylish multiplayer game about diving, flipping, and sliding your way into action movie mayhem.

What's Double Action Like?

Imagine doing a backflip off some dude's face, then diving through a window, gold-plated pistols firing in slow motion. There's an explosion behind you and somebody's stolen your briefcase full of money.

Is that enough action for you? Multiply it by two for Double Action.

So, it's like a Micheal Bay movie?

Don't talk to me.

So, it's like a Freddie Wong movie?

Hell yeah! Now you're talking!

Are there weapons? I like weapons.

Yes. Yes you do.

The Sentinel 9* - A 9mm pistol
The Stallion .45* - A .45 caliber pistol
The Undertaker - A 9mm sub-machine gun
The Mac Daddy - A .45 caliber sub-machine gun
The Persuader - A combat shotgun
The Vindicator - A fully-automatic rifle
The Black Magic - A burst-fire rifle
Your Fists - They pack a mean punch
The High Explosive Grenade - For when all else fails

* Pistols also available in dual wield style.

This all sounds very stylish!

Style is good; we like style. Choose a style skill for specialized action:

Marksman - Improved gun handling and extra firearms damage
Athlete - Faster speed and better stunts
Bouncer - Deal more damage when brawling
Reflexes - Super-slow-motion and bullet time
Nitrophiliac - Extra grenades, more explosions

What's the objective?

Double Action is a no-holds-barred battle royale interspersed with objectives to survive checkpoints, capture the briefcase full of money, and hunt down the wanted criminal.

How much does it cost?

Don't be ridiculous, it wouldn't be very stylish if we charged you. Double Action is free, just download and play!
