Passend zum Multiplayer-Patch 1.2 haben die Flagship Studios jetzt eine Beta-Version des Singleplayer-Patches zum Download freigegeben (auch alle Veränderungen der älteren Multiplayer-Patches sind enthalten). Die Beta-Version könnt ihr euch von unserer Hellgate-Fansite runterladen, allerdings solltet ihr zur Sicherheit vorher sämtliche Speicherstände eurer Charaktere sichern.

Außerdem wird auf dem Testserver momentan das Update 1.3 den ersten Tests unterzogen. Neben neuen Emotes (beg, bow, cheer, cry, flex, kiss, laugh, point, stop, taunt und wave) und der Möglichkeit die Ausrüstung von anderen Spielern zu betrachten, wird der Patch ein umfangreiches Rang-System einführen.

Test Center Patch 1.3 Notes

New Features

• Ranks and Perks:
  • After characters hit Level 50, they can start earning experience towards gaining Ranks.
  • There are 50 Ranks, each of which will take a long time to earn.
  • Rank is displayed under the character's level and is visible to other players.
  • Each Rank grants you one Perk Point. Perk Points can be spent on Perks.
  • There will be 15 different kinds of Perks with four levels each.
  • Perks will be displayed in a skill-tree-like fashion' with icons and popup text describing what the benefits are of the Perk. Hit U to view the Perks screen.
  • The first level for each Perk will cost one Perk Point. Another Perk Point will be needed to increase each level after the first, much like with upgrading an item using Nanoshards.

• Shared Stash:
  • Now all characters on your subscriber account can share their items! Current trade conventions do apply: items will not be able to be traded across play modes. Also, "no trade" items can not be placed in Shared Stash.

• Hide Helmet:
  • Players can elect to hide their headgear and show their characters' faces without removing it. This toggle can be found at the bottom of the character screen.

• Emotes:
  • A host of emotes are now at your disposal including beg, bow, cheer, cry, flex, kiss, laugh, point, stop, taunt, and wave. While others are also available on Test Center, these are being reserved as rewards. Type / and the word, then hit enter to perform it.

• Inspect Players:
  • Players can now inspect other players' equipment. Right click on a nearby character and select the "Inspect" option to bring up a ragdoll interface showing the character and its equipment.
  • Players can prevent their characters from being inspected by toggling the Inspect option at the bottom of their character screen.

• Gambling Merchant:
  • Presently located in Stonehenge, Gambling Merchant Ko has items for sale which are unidentified and do not reveal their actual rarity level. Players can risk their hard-earned Palladium for the chance to gamble on these items.

• Optional Chat Bubbles:
  • Chat bubbles are now an optional chat feature and can be toggled in the Game Options menu. Different chat channels will appear as different text colors.
