Warpath: Patch 1.03

Let’s see what is coming in the game version 1.03 as communicated in the Warpath Developer War Room.

Attention Commander, I’m Fred Kendall from the Dev Team. I’d like to wish you all a Happy New Year from the crew back in the Developer War Room here!

We anticipate that version 1.03 will go live early in the new year. This will be our first update for 2021, which will see the premiere of our new Officer, Randall Miller. We do hope you like this US Soldier.

We have carefully looked through all of the feedback and suggestions from our Commanders and compiled a bank of optimizations which we will roll out in subsequent updates. We hope that as you read through the Developer War Room you will see the optimizations that you raised. We hope to continue receiving all of your feedback in the future too. While implementation may not be immediate, you can rest assured your suggestions are being treated with great importance.

Let’s get straight into the content we’re going to see in this update!

Born in the heart of Texas, Sergeant Miller is a skilled and experienced fighter. Well known among allies and enemies, if he gazes at you but doesn’t mock you, you can take it as a compliment.During the North Africa Campaign, an intelligence leak lead to a sudden enemy ambush. Sergeant Miller’s troops were swiftly wiped out, and he was punished and demoted to Sergeant. He took the ID tags of his soldiers and wore them himself. His determination in combat is spurred on by their memory…Sergeant Miller is a master of weaponry. He’s familiar with handling all kinds of the arsenal, but most of all, the Maxim machine gun which allows him to pour out all his anger and resentment on his enemies in flames of fury.
