Following layoffs, Highguard devs Wildlight announce it's getting a new airship base and door-opening dart gun

As of writing, the shooter's website's inactive taking a nap

When the website of Highguard abruptly began blaring that it was "unavailable" not agelong aft quality broke of layoffs astatine developer Wildlight, you could person been forgiven for reasoning a Concord-style pulling offline mightiness beryllium successful the shooter's adjacent future. That doesn't look to beryllium the case, though, with the workplace having conscionable announced a mates of caller additions acceptable to get successful the crippled this week.

These additions are a caller basal called Cloudreach and a raid toll called the Lockpick, some of which are acceptable to get successful a spot acceptable to driblet "later this week". The basal is noteworthy for being location to a monolithic airship, which sounds similar a cardinal constituent successful keeping battles connected it varied. "The platform surrounding the airship overlooks the full area, giving defenders an elevated presumption to snipe from, but allows speedy repositioning to some generator rooms, wherever combat rapidly turns adjacent quarters," Wildlight wrote.

Meanwhile, the Lockpick isn't a lockpick. It's really a dart weapon you tin occurrence to "open doors and windows, temporarily disabling them for the force and giving power to your team". I conjecture calling it the Handle's Worst Enemy alternatively would person been a spot lame. Anyway, the spot is besides delivering a equine called a Moonbruin, which look a spot similar Baldur's Gate 3's Owlbears.

"We are besides moving connected our adjacent patch, which we purpose to bring a caller crippled mode focused connected the Raid experience, arsenic good arsenic immoderate equilibrium adjustments to weapons, among different things," Wildlight wrote to circular retired their post.

So, the shooter's acceptable to support connected trucking for the clip being, with this spot quality backing up an admin connected the authoritative Highguard Discord's assertion earlier this week that the website being down was simply a substance of fixing it presently being "low priority".
