March of the Ghosts Patchnotes - 03/08/2016

160301_CFNA_MarchUpdate_forums.jpg

Attention Mercenaries,

As if according to some sort of schedule, our intelligence network has identified a large amount of activity by Fury Ghost elements in the recent weeks. We're not sure what has disturbed them but we can't afford to wait and see. We need a team of soldiers to inspect the latest location of activity and hamper the ghosts efforts.

As always, we will also be releasing a set of weapons for any soldiers wanting to take on this mission.

[NEW FEATURES]
Attendance System
If you tend to check in every day to see what's new/going on then you are in luck. With the March of the Ghosts patch we are introducing a new attendance system which will give you some reward items simply for logging in. The prizes can vary from a boost to your fever gauge for the day, to GP, to a free temporary weapon.
Special Missions
A new set of missions have been made available to aspiring mercs. Every week a new series of missions will be complete-able for mercenaries wanting to make a bit of extra GP. In addition to this as you complete missions you will earn points towards a special reward box that can be obtained.
Clan War: Captain Mode
We're introducing Captain Mode to the Clan system allowing you to challenge other clans in 1 : 1 combat so you can see who comes out on top.
Improved Bootcamp
The Bootcamp experience has been updated to be a bit clearer and to be a bit more exciting. In addition to this there are a couple of new missions for new players to experience which will help show some of the more advanced systems in the game.
Map of the Month
With the amount of maps/modes available these days, we've decided to start making a couple of recommendations for those that might not be sure what to play. These recommendations will change from month to month so if you don't agree with the recommendations this month, maybe the ones you like will be there next month.
Chat Update
The whisper system has been revamped to be a bit more user friendly and allow players to more easily read through their chats. Functionally nothing is different, but now everything is presented in a much more pleasant appearance.

[NEW MAP]
Stronghold [Shadow Mode - Elimination]
Fury Ghost activity has been detected in a remote mountainous region. Our scouts investigated the area and found an old fortress high up in the cliffs. We aren't sure what the Fury Ghosts could be doing up there, but we can't afford to leave them be. Investigate the fortress! If the Fury ghosts return you have clearance to eliminate them.

While this map is classified as an Elimination map, the Ghost team has the ability to win via planting/detonating a bomb much like the regular Ghost Mode. So tune your tactics with that in mind.


[NEW WEAPONS]
7th Anniversary Crates
M4A1-C-Aqua Aurora
An advanced version of the M4A1-Custom outfitted with a high-quality silencer, red dot sight and painted with a special Aqua Aurora design.

A Barrett assault rifle which uses a 6.8 mm SPC cartridge that increases attack power. Also has a 3-round burst option.
