EA Update 2 Notes
Date 20.05.2020

Comanche's second big Early Access update is now live. It includes not only planned roadmap
features and changes but a lot of changes based on Community Feedback as well.

Check out the following for more details.

Most notable Changes
   ●   New singleplayer operation: Door Breaker
   ●   Russian and simplified Chinese localisation
   ●   Ongoing multiplayer matches
   ●   Drone Skins
   ●   Ping System
   ●   Controls Improvements
   ●   Adjustable singleplayer difficulty
   ●   Better Match Statistics

Changes Details

Operation: Door Breaker
The Comanche Singleplayer experience continues: A covert operation to dismantle the plans
of Kude Core deep within enemy territory. To achieve this you will be operating the Ghost
Comanche. Avoid detection by an unstoppable enemy, and pick your fights well to succeed.

Russian and Simplified Chinese localisation
Most ingame texts are now localised in Russian and Simplified Chinese languages.

Ongoing multiplayer matches
Going through the matchmaking queue can be exhausting sometimes. With the new ongoing
matches feature, a new match will be started directly after a match has been ended, without
having to queue again. To support this, refilling and late joining of games also got a lot faster.

                                                                                   3/7
Comanche
                                                                                  EA Update 2 Notes

Drone Skins
Now you can unlock and activate skins not only for your helicopters but your drones as well.
Common, Rare and Legendary Skins have been introduced. Unlock these by participating in
multiplayer games.

Team sizes
Maximum team size has been temporarily adjusted to be 2 players. This is necessary to
improve the matchmaking for a smaller player base. We will remove this restriction once we
hit a certain threshold of active users. This also reduces the chances for newcomers to be
matched against a full group. Thus reducing the chance to end up in 1 v 4 matches.

Ping System
This new feature allows players to quickly select predefined radio coms as a communication
tool for the team. Please note that some players will need to go to the control settings and
assign a keybinding to “Command Wheel” or reset the control scheme (“Restore Defaults”,
please note that you’ll need to enter your keybindings again if you choose this option).

Implemented Community Feedback
“Join the community - shape the game” - we want to develop Comanche further together with
you, based on your input. Thank you for being an awesome community by being active on the
official Comanche Discord server (https://discord.gg/comanche), on the Steam boards, by
participating in surveys and other channels.
The following content (“Adjustable Difficulty for Singleplayer Content”, “Arcade Controls
Improvements”, “Score Board Extensions”, “Improved Gamepad Controls”) is based on your
feedback. Please stay so helpful and supportive! We will continue to listen and evaluate every
feedback from the Comanche players. The coming updates will reflect this as well.

Adjustable Difficulty for Singleplayer Content
To match the skill level and playstyle of most players we added different difficulty modes into
the singleplayer mode. You’ll find it in the general settings of Comanche.

Arcade Controls Improvements
Arcade Controls have been updated so that the Comanche follows the camera. The Freelook
button will disable the AutoYaw while being pressed, so it still acts as a 'free look'. Removed
the combine Yaw/Roll assistant, it is now unnecessary.

                                                                                  4/7

Better Match Statistics
The score board design has been updated. It now incorporates player ranks and Steam avatar
icons, and ranks players according to their participation in a match. Repairing other players is
now included in the participation score. Game mode objective play has been added to the
Scoreboard.

accordingly.
