Measures against leaderboard cheating have also been implemented, alongside support for 2v2 team deathmatch and four-way deathmatch modes.
Background and Future Prospects
PC Gamer has commended Straftat for its engaging, chaotic gunplay reminiscent of classic LAN parties. The developers have expressed their commitment to sustaining the game's longevity, suggesting more updates will follow.
