Massive graphics update

New water

Water simulation and visuals have been completely reworked for all maps. The new simulation system can create waves of any shape and height while also adding realism to wave dynamics. This means that waves will now gently rock a ship, and the ship will produce a response that varies according to the wave height. This change will not affect gameplay.

We have improved the display of the sun glitter path over water and other optical effects on the water’s surface. Added dynamic seafoam and updated the ship wake effect.

With low graphics settings, water simulation will remain unchanged.

HD textures on maps

We are launching a massive update for all maps and Ports to accommodate enhanced HD textures. In Update 0.10.10, high-detail textures will be added to the Two Brothers and Hotspot maps, as well as the Philippines, Saint-Petersburg, and Twitch Prime Ports.

Future updates will bring high-detail textures for the other maps and Ports. However, like with HDR lighting, such an update requires a huge amount of content to be reworked and an individual approach to each map and Port. For that reason, adopting the new technology for all maps and Ports in the game will take time and be implemented incrementally with the release of future updates.

Underwater world, vegetation, and animations

We are continuing to improve the underwater world in our game. In Update 0.10.10, we have added underwater vegetation on the Two Brothers and Hotspot maps. The underwater world will also appear on the Haven, Sleeping Giant, and Crash Zone Alpha maps. In the nearest updates, we will focus on adding improvements to the underwater world on other maps as well.

Vegetation has been enhanced on all maps and in all Ports. Trees look more realistic with enhanced shading and rays of sunlight shining through the green foliage. We have also reworked the wind-tree interactions. We have added more trees and other green foliage on maps.

Ports and maps with HD textures now feature birds, fish, flying flags, and other moving objects. We will continue adding more animated objects to maps and Ports over time.
