First patch Tactical Operations
On the 19th of December, we launched our game, hooray ! Thanks for all the support so far. So far the feedback has been mixed, with a lot of good feedback and some criticism about things we can't/won't change (we are not a cs clone and we don't strive to be one). In the end, this game might not be for everyone, that's perfectly fine. This first patch is the work of a few days, based on the most common feedback we gained. The patch is meant to brush off some rough edges, especially on the gameplay elements. Mind you: we have NOT focussed on the User Interface, while we know there is still a world to conquer there. Two of the most prominent changes are: you can now interrupt a reload (will cost you 1 clip), a small movement penalty has been added to some weapons and armor, also have we tweaked the general movement. This should make firefights feel less chaotic and make duels between players last a bit longer (Time To Kill). Servers We also would like to mention that we have a few extra servers deployed in new regions of the world (Chicago, Singapore - massive thanks to L4ur3ns for making this happen). The server package is not ready for public deployment, this should happen over the next month or so. If you ever need an admin or want to talk about servers, let us know on Discord. Internal Testing team Another interesting topic is the start of our Internal Testing team. This consists of people who have given constructive feedback (both positive and negative) about the game. With them, we are trying out the patches before we release them to the public and they are the first ones who will have opinions about new ideas and improvements to the game, this is also our first line of defense when looking for bugs. Again, we are making this game with and for the community and we are not afraid to have meaningful discussions about certain topics. The new patch will be launched on 24-12-2019 Patchnotes version 19360 Note: This build includes new config settings, your config file will be reset. If some input binds do not appear in the input settings or do not work press Windows + R, paste & run %localappdata%/TO/Saved and remove the Config folder Added stuff

TO4 Client Linux [28.29 G]
TO4: Tactical Operations brings back those nostalgic feelings you know from the early days of online shooters. We love that sheer easy-to-learn-hard-to-master attitude. The fun of playing with friends in a game where you need tactics, ammo clips, bravery and perhaps a bit of luck.
Game Modes
TO4: Tactical Operations brings the game modes that we all know. Teamplay on every map with bombing (and/or defusing) scenarios, hostages rescue, the hacking of important assets and escaping with the whole team before the other team finds you. And most important, if you don’t succeed in one of those objectives, you always have the classic Team Deathmatch.
Playing the game
The game is a classic round based game. At the beginning of the round you can buy weapons, armour, and grenades with the money you have earned the round before. When you and your comrades are all geared up, you will find yourself in unique worlds where you will have an objective. Complete the objective, wipe out the entire other squad or let the round time run out. The choice is up to you. But it will reward you with stronger weapons, good map rankings and good long fights.
Key elements
The movement of TO4: Tactical Operations is something unique. The game is fast, an almost arcade-like feeling in a realistic world. Carrying a knife, pistol or rifle, your movement speed will not differ. Jumping, crouching, swimming, climbing ladders, you are in control of the direction you take. Gunfights you ask? Well, we do have a lot of guns in the game, and each has a unique feeling to it. You will find yourself switching between your 3 weapon inventory slots to win that 1 v 1 battle with an opposing player. Firefights take longer, you will not die instantly from only one shot. But the better your aim, the faster your opponent will go down.
Multiplayer
TO4: Tactical Operations development is focused on multiplayer gameplay. We love to play versus real people and not unimaginative bots or learnable AI, we have made this easy with an In-game server browser to help you find a good place to have fun with friends and other players or to find the most challenging game for your level of gameplay
