2. Map Change​

The map is called "Evoside." The original map was created by another Garry's Mod community, and they made it public at some point. We were impressed with their work, and over the past few weeks, we've been diligently working on a customized version of this map that we believe everyone will enjoy., and our new version offers a fresh experience for all players. We'll keep refining the map, so please keep sending in your suggestions and bug reports. We're excited to hear your feedback on the new map...

Patch Update 2.5.3​

04/09/2023​

Hello there, welcome to the epic patch notes. Similar to last patch we've got a lot of improvements/changes and fixes to the gamemode.

After this update there will be another patch which will be focused on improving the new player experience and other QoL changes. The focus going forward is making a lot of changes to QoL, balancing and new player gameplay. We're planning a major update within a few weeks as well that will have more content rather than just changes.

Gang Zone Rewards​

Following along with the previous patch update gang zones will be receiving more improvements.

Replacing daily bonuses is the new territory store...

Patch Update 2.5.1​

05/08/2023​

Hello! This patch is aimed at improving features added in major update 2.5 as well as fixing issues/bugs. There are a lot of minor changes in this update that should hopefully improve the QoL and make some things easier.

After this update the current plan is to do another patch that should improve even more on some of the features from 2.5, improvements/additions to underwater diving and territories should be included. A little bit after the patch is going to be major 2.6 which will include major changes to the vehicle system as well as other new features.
