War Rock gets a new patch

K2 Network, the game publisher for online FPS War Rock in the U.S., Europe, and India, announced the release of a new patch titled Chapter 2: Revelations. The patch comes with a spanking new storyline, a couple of maps, three vehicles, four PX items and a parachute system, among other things.

The two new maps are titled Thamugadi and Bandar. Also included in the patch are additions to the PX including:

  • 20% Bonus XP - Increases earned in-game experience;
  • Extra Clip Sniper - Adds an extra clip to sniper rifles;
  • Extra Clip Other - Adds extra clip to selected rifles;
  • Crosshair 3 - A crosshair designed for quicker acquisition of targets.

The three new vehicles in the game are the following: the Leopard tank, Chinook helicopter and Apache helicopter. There’s also a new parachute system where players can now drop into enemy territory by jumping out of the Chinook helicopter.

I haven’t received any word if our local servers for War Rock would have the new patch implemented, and if said patch comes with fixes for the game. If you recall, I included War Rock in my list of worst shooters of 2007 and with good reason. Any fixes would be welcome, so here’s to the shooter not stinking so badly.

    I heard from the grapevine that, yes, the patch would be implemented on Philippine servers. As to when, however, I still have no idea.

    I wonder if it would be game-changing or anything. Rakion’s recent patches certainly made the game a bit different.
