Back in 2013, BrainBread: Source slowly transitioned into BrainBread 2, thanks to Greenlight we were able to push our game onto Steam. Three more years passed until the game was available in Early Access mode, sadly we never managed to get a sufficient amount of content out due to our lack of team members, but we tried our best to fill every void. Six more years passed and we're here today, lots of content has been pushed into BrainBread 2 over the years, including maps, weapons, characters, gameplay changes and more.

Maps
Fever: Cybercon's Notorious Lab

Coltec: Brainobyl Returns (mad laughter)

Surgery: Painkiller edition - Thanks to The deadly Cutsman

Biohazard: Workshop Map!

New Achievements

• Activate Gunslinger.
  
• Activate Blood Rage.
  
• Activate Zombie Rage.
  
• Kill 25 Players as a Zombie Player.
  
• Become Infected.
  
• Complete Coltec: Objective with 4 or more players.
  
• Complete Fever: Objective with 4 or more players.
  
• Complete Surgery: Arena with 4 or more players.
  

• Added a recurring XP event which will happen every Saturday (lasts 24 hours), this system depends on the timezone of the server, to ensure that you will get the best possible experience. All XP will be increased 3.5 times, this will NOT affect NPC scale / difficulty!
  
• Improved kick and ban vote system, the proper steam ID is now being used, and correct commands for auto kicking on ban, etc.
  

• Zombie NPCs and Fred will now actually play idle/moan sounds, some old bugs would prevent these sounds if there were more than 5 zombies in the game.
  
• Human NPCs can now use flamethrowers, snipers and the winchester.
  
• Added a new boss for the Coltec objective map - meet the Preacher, watch out for his spontaneous grenade attacks!
  
• Added a cvar which can be used to alter the zombie's max speed, useful if you want your map to be more slow paced.
  
• Fixed grenade attachments using the wrong hand attachment, grenades should now spawn in more suitable locations.
  
• Humanoid bosses will now use the correct damage scale values when taking damage, implying some bosses may take less damage from certain weapons.
  
• Improved NPCs fire rate with certain weapons like shotguns, snipers, etc. They no longer fire them as fast as assault rifles...
  

• trigger_capturepoint will no longer allow a capture percentage of 0, this would break the trigger - thus it would "auto" capture by itself.
  
• Updated entity whitelist when a map is restarted, entities like func_brushes, player blockers, etc, were not fully restored on game restart. This issue could prevent players from progressing in the map if they failed once and had to start over again.
  
• Added an OnProgressed output to logic_quest, this output is triggered for any quest objective, if it has been progressed in any way.
  
• When a capture volume is captured it will fire the OnCaptured output using the last player interactor in the entity output message.
  
• Areaportal windows can now be force closed, opened and support an initial state.
  
• Any item type can now be respawned with the inventory item randomizer, such as actual inventory items, not consumables, etc.
  
• bb2_prop_button now has a UseSound keyfield.
  
• Color Correction will no longer fade in if the falloff is set to -1.
  
• Added shared kill entity classname "bandits" for logic_objective, this will count any bandit, bandit leader, etc kill. Similarly to the "zombies" classname checker.
  
• Updated the logic_objective with a list of choices for the kill entity type (in the FGD).
  
• filter_character_type and smart_trigger will now properly register bandit NPCs if the filter is set to Humans NPCs only.
  
• point_teleport TeleportHumans and TeleportZombies will now perform simple trace checks, to ensure that only players that are not within reach will be teleported.
  
• Added bb2_zombie_spawner_continuous, this is enabled by default, and will revert to the old zombie volume behaviour, which is to spawn zombie waves every X sec even if the old wave did not fully spawn yet. Newer maps disable this for more optimal zombie spawning.
  
• Fixed a bug which would show the objective icon for inventory items even if it was set to disabled by default.
  
• Inventory items can now be set to unique, which ensures the player can only carry one unit of the item.
  
• Inventory items can now have a despawn time - these will be removed after a few sec when dropped by a player.
  

• Improved experience system, XP is now awarded based on damage dealt, rather than on kill. Previously you would get XP for a kill, and for each attack you would get 1 XP, this has been changed to a "gain XP as you deal damage" approach, where the minimum XP you may receive is still 1 XP. Your XP value received is affected by how much damage you dealt relative to the NPCs health, and of course the current scale values in the server. Team bonus will now be directly applied to each attack, making it even more useful to gather up against the ZEDs!
  
• Perk duration is now visualized on the HUD, counts for both human and zombie perks.
  
• Any XP gained will now be visualized on the HUD, this can be disabled in Options->Other.
  
• When playing as a zombie in Objective mode, you will now see two counters next to your healthbar HUD in the bottom left corner, these two counters indicate how many enemies you have to kill, or how many times you have to die until you may respawn as a human.
  
• Improved Blood Rage skill perk, this perk will now improve your health regen vastly, increase your kick damage and melee damage further. Initially it only affected melee damage, excluding kick. This health regen stacks with the health regen skill, and melee master damage skill.
  

• Fixed a minor bug which displaced HUD text when you were infected.
  

• Bandit will award 10 XP instead of 8 XP.
  
• Bandit Leader will award 15 XP instead of 12 XP.
  
• Zombie Walker will award 7.5 XP instead of 5 XP.
  
• Fred will award 1000 XP instead of 100 XP.
  
• Johnson will award 500 XP instead of 100 XP.
  
• Custom Actor NPC will now award 50 XP if not a boss, and 100 XP if it is a boss, instead of a fixed XP value of 5.
  

• Boosted Deagle damage from 40 to 50.
  
• Flamethrower no longer has a horrible drop off.

Our Community

• We at Reperio Studios, wanted to wish the very best to our community, who have supported us throughout the years of development. Without you guys and gals, we would be just another source engine mod. Thank you to our most hardcore and dedicated players who have killed hundreds of bandits, slaughtered thousands of zombies, and possibly smacked around a few times by Farmer Fred. As well as those just joining the fight! We love and appreciate every single one of you guys.

• Further more, a special thank you to all current and past development team members. This mod has come a long way and it wouldn't be possible, if not for all your hard work. Including Programmers, community managers, sound designers, voice actors, translators, and so on.

• Though we are a very limited team since launch. We still plan on supporting the mod (game) with new maps, features, and hopefully a wider range of content. We are always looking for new talent to join the team. If you know anyone who'd be interested in helping out with 3D Design, Animating, Texturing or Level Design please let them know that we'd love to have them on board!

Server owners please update your servers!
Disclaimer:
Due to major changes to the .cfg files be sure to update them to your needs, such as setting server name, global/local stats, etc...
Plus more convars have been listed in server_core.cfg.
If you want to enable arena hardmode or hard scaling for Objective/Story/Arena, be sure to set this as well @ server_core.cfg!

We've also updated the default mapcycle for dedicated servers, it no longer contains any Deathmatch or Elimination maps by default, if you still want to host DM or Elimination, add the respective maps to the mapcycle!

Code
Base

• Major optimization for client & server, went through roughly all the code, cleaned up messy code, fixed null pointer bugs, fixed overly expensive code, etc...
  
• Added full client-side playermodel support similar to Sven Co-Op and GoldSrc in general, meaning you can play as any survivor model, anyone who also has that survivor model will be able to see you, otherwise it uses a default. (survivor models are defined in the character scripts)
  
• Improved lag compensation and hit detection, especially for melee weapons.
  
• Dev, Donator, Tester and other data tags should work properly again.
  
• Reduced memory usage and removed some unnecessary hl2 content files.
  
• LOCAL STATS CAN NOW BE USED IN A LISTENSERVER FOR OFFLINE PLAY!
  
• Fixed a major bug in the local stats, when I implemented Zombie skills saving I forgot to increase the buffer for saving the local stats to a file, so basically it wouldn't save everything!
  
• Local Stats will no longer be disabled if sv_cheats is 1.
  
• Default tickrate for dedicated servers has been lowered from 66 to 33, you can still use a higher tickrate by simply passing the -tickrate XX param to the srcds application.
  
• Reloading server data or client data will now dispatch an event so that we can update accordingly, for instance the NPCs will now properly fixup the data pointers when reloading data, otherwise you'd risk invalid pointers!
  
• Increased bb2_high_ping_limit to 350 from 250.
  
• Updated server_core.cfg to include a bunch of new useful convars, take a look!
  
• Updated the game icon for hl2.exe @ Windows only.
  
• Updated the game's music folder, there might be some missing music in some of the maps, if you get any FMOD errors please let us know!
  
• It is no longer possible to evade bans or kicks, plus if you get kicked you'll be banned for roughly 5 minutes to prevent people from simply rejoining and repeating. The ban on kick can be administered with the bb2_vote_kick_ban_time command.
  
• Removed Elimination & Deathmatch maps from the standard dedicated server mapcycle file, if you still want to host Elimination or Deathmatch maps feel free to re-add them to your mapcycle!
  
• Soundscapes should work properly for dedicated servers running under Linux.
  
• Updated to the latest SDK2013 binaries.
  

• Increased gib limit from 128 to 256!
  
• When new gibs spawn and you reach the gib limit, old gibs will fade out instead of fading the new gibs out quickly.
  
• Fixed a terribly sad bug which prevented the fantastic blood cloud from appearing properly when smashing zombies to bits.
  
• Players should now emit the right blood decals depending on your bb2_extreme_gore value.

• Buckshot damage should now properly spawn blood decals & particles.
  

• XP received when completing quests & objectives have been reduced to 4% for quests and 2% for objectives. Previously you'd receive 10% for quests and 5% for objectives which was far TOO much.
  
• XP received when finishing a round in Arena, an entire game in Arena or an entire game in Objective will now give you percentage based XP increase instead of a small fixed number!
  
• Added bb2_story_dynamic_respawn for Story mode, which allows players to respawn where the action's at rather than at the same checkpoints all the time.
  
• When a new round has begun you'll not be able to create a vote for roughly 60 sec. The delay can be administered with bb2_vote_roundstart_delay.
  
• Added bb2_arena_hard_mode which will disable reinforcements in Arena mode, you'll however receive more XP. In order to activate this you have to set bb2_arena_hard_mode to 1 then change map to any Arena map. You cannot disable/enable this while in the map due to exploiting.
  
• Added bb2_hard_scaling which enables a new scaling technique for Arena, Objective & Story mode, it relies on the average level of the players which is a good way to make the game more challenging depending on the average level in the game. Set bb2_hard_scaling to 1 and change map to enable it properly.
  

• Optimized NPC netcode, reduced bitstream by 80 bits for all NPCs and 323 bits for all zombie NPCs!
  
• Fixed a bug which would force NPC ragdolls to always fade out after roughly 4 seconds regardless of your bb2_gibs_fadeout_time value. (NPC gibs were not affected)
  
• Fixed a potential bug that could break any objective or arena map if you were using entity counting via logic_entity_counter or logic_objective/logic_quest, if an NPC killed a boss and bb2_allow_npc_to_score was set to 0, the kill would not be registered!
  
• Frag grenades should now properly notify all NPCs of danger.
  
• NPCs can now be given random health, random damage values, random kick values and random speed values!
  
• Removed glow logic from npcs, meaning you can no longer make npcs use the glow outline effect.

• Zombie Walkers & Runners will have their lifespan refreshed whenever they take damage from human players.
  
• Fixed a random bug which could make a zombie gib itself when dying due to the lifespan feature, if the zombie was previously hit in a hitgroup which allowed gibbing.
  
• Bandit NPCs should no longer T-pose randomly. (hopefully...)
  
• Health and Damage scaling for the npc_custom_actor will now update properly on spawn and when players connect/disconnect.
  
• Fixed Fred's bounding box so that he can get through tinier doorways.
  
• Fred will now do an inverse-shockwave special attack targeting players that are camping, a random player which is at least 100 units above Fred will be selected, that player and nearby players will be pulled towards Fred with zero-G force!
  
• Improved door breaking for all zombie NPCs.
  
• Improved AI responsiveness and efficiency.
  
• npc_m1a1 now supports disabling collision.
  
• Simplified Walker & Runner spawning, Runners would sometimes bug when trying to play the 'rise' schedule.
  
• Zombies will no longer try to break obstructions that are either above or underneath them...
  

• smart_trigger will now check for default filters and such before checking the new built-in filtering, plus the other outputs will be fired properly. Previously this trigger only fired OnTouching.
  
• Removed constraint flag for items and weapons, items and weapons in BB2 don't use physics unless dropped anyway.
  
• You can now set the interruptibility choice for the npc_auto_spawner and zombie_volume auto-schedule on spawn feature.
  
• zombie_volume now allows you to set how near a player has to be before it starts spawning, you can also set the spawn frequency, you can choose to skip visibility checks, set the desired max Z-difference between the trigger and player.
  
• zombie_volume will now check if any player is inside its volume before making other complex checks, if true it'll spawn right away.
  
• Added a new handy texture proxy 'TeamLinkTexture' which can be used to only allow a certain team to see a certain texture.
  
• Player and Zombie spawn points now have a 'Master' option, enabling this will make the spawn act as a last resort, meaning you can spawn in it even if it is disabled, if no other checkpoint was found.
  
• Tweaked the inventory system, you can now set the spawn angle for items, change their scale and set the entity link through the item/map script.
  
• Teleporting an inventory item will properly update the origin of its objective icon, if any.
  
• Fixed a bug which prevented you from changing the glow mode of an entity if it was set to radius glow on spawn.

• Fixed minor bugs in the page handling in the leaderboard panel and map selection panel.
  
• Leaderboards will no longer update continuously as long as you're in-game, this would sometimes create unexpected lag and stuttering due to the high upload rate, from now on you only update your leaderboard entry when you disconnect from a game.
  
• Addon downloader, loading screen and map selector should now display the raw BSP name if no other name is present for the map in question.

Code
Base

• Rewrote the lag compensation logic for players and npcs, improved hit detection! (Disclaimer: Please let us know if anything feels a bit off with this new system!)
  
• Thanks to the new lag compensation logic there will be no more constant twitching/jitter back and forth, npcs and players would be affected by this due to the old lag compensation would move entities backwards in time, the new system does not need to physically make these changes.

• Added new Famas textures, thanks to El Negro.

The road to Early Access
We have been talking about maybe pushing BrainBread 2 into Early Access. This will of course take awhile, since we want to make sure we at least got most weapons, animations & the content added before we go live.


Dev Live Stream
We will also have a live stream on the 19th of March 2016. It will go live @ 6PM EST. There we will be showing the new stuff from the Beta Branch & we will be giving some keys.
Our Twitch: http://www.twitch.tv/reperiostudios

And this time, no more robot voice! We have changed from Xsplit to OBS due Xsplit have some issues on Windows 10.


The Night of The Living Bread Event
The event will happen on 26th of March 2016, @ 6PM EST. Hope to see you guys on there!
