Killing Floor’s Free Level-Up Expansion Released

Oct 22, 2009 at 4:15 PM

Tripwire Interactive’s Killing Floor has been updated with the release of a free 1GB addon that adds a whole load of new content.

A required update for Killing Floor has been released. All servers must update to remain compatible with the public build. This update includes the huge free “Level Up” content pack as well as many bug fixes. We are running a free weekend from now until Sunday, and could use extra servers if anyone wants to run some. Might be a good time for server hosting companies to put up some servers and get attention for their compan (hint hint).Changelog:

  • Added an all new fireball projectile launching specimen called the Husk.
  • Added a new Perk called Demolitions. This Perk’s new weapons are the Pipe Bomb, M79 Grenade Launcher, and M32 Grenade Launcher.
  • Added new weapons for existing Perk:
    • Support: AA12 Automatic Shotgun
    • Sharpshooter: M14 EBR Semit Automatic Sniper rifle (With Laser Sight)
    • Commando: SCAR Automatic Rifle
    • Medic: MP7M Modified Sub-machine Gun(with Alt-Fire Heal Dart)
  • Added 3 New Maps: KF-Bedlam, KF-Wyre, and KF-Waterworks (the Grindhouse Wave 1 first place finisher)
  • Extended Perk Level to 6 with Gold Perk Icons to signify to othersthat you are Level 6. New perk levels included enhanced abilities for each perk.
  • Added 22 new Achievements focused on the new Perk, Maps, and Weapons.
  • Completely redone User Interface with a more user friendly Trader Menu design.
  • Implemented new Headshot system that improves headshot detection in networkgames. Additionally this system fixes Insta-Kill Decap on Fleshpound when attacking up close, and fixes the headshot detection issues on the Scrake.
  • Improved Healing tool functionality. Healing tool will no longer give “false positives” where the healing animation plays but no actual healing occured. Healing should be easier to perform as well.
  • Added ability to Repair Body Armor at Trader, with the additional ability to partially repair the armor when low on money.
  • Improved Collision Detection on players. Should allow you to shoot Zeds near other players where the old cylinder collision would not.
  • Tweaked Clot attack animations.
  • Fixed not being able to properly select your Perk in the Lobby Menu when you join a game during Trader Time.
  • Fixed 3rd Person Nade throwing animations not working online.
  • Fixed issues with the UPnP system implemented in version 1007. The UPNP system should now properly handle opening ports on many more routers. UPNP system is now asychronous so will no longer make the game appear to hitch if the UPNP system is active. Including a new INI setting for disabling UPnP support.
  • Fixed known exploits on all official maps (KF-BioticsLab, KF-Farm, KF-Foundry, KF-Manor, KF-Offices, and KF-WestLondon).
  • Hamachi version 2 available!

    Time to upgrade what is probably the most useful tool we’ve found in the past few years.

    Grab the latest version of hamachi (free for personal use) from https://secure.logmein.com/

    You’ll need to create an account – which is free – to download and installed.  It will import previous settings and add you to the clanspam network if you’ve currently got it set up.
