The tactical shooter Active Matter just got fresher with update 0.1.0.131, bringing tweaks that could change how you approach raids and survival. From smarter spawns to handy weapon additions, this patch focuses on smoothing out the edges while adding tools for better strategies.
Major Gameplay Tweaks in Raids
Players diving into Ozernoe will notice fresh spawn points, making entries less predictable and more fair. Gravity anomalies at Factory's construction site have been refined, potentially saving you from those frustrating physics mishaps. High-Priority Cargo contracts now skip attic chests as final goals, streamlining objectives. Plus, spawns for players and monsters are spaced farther apart, reducing those instant ambushes that ruin a good run.
Audio and Sound Improvements
Sound design gets a boost with new footstep audio for Invisibles, helping you detect those sneaky threats earlier. A fresh weapon-jam sound adds realism, while fixed raindrop effects on water make environments feel more immersive. For content creators, 18 music tracks are temporarily disabled, but a new setting lets you toggle only platform-safe music—perfect for streaming without copyright worries.
What's New in Weapons and Gear?
The ASh-12 rifle now has a scope slot, opening up sighting options. Tactical flashlights are a new mod, ideal for dark corners in unstable zones. A "Drop all content" button on tactical vests speeds up inventory management, and Robot Dogs extract reliably if you're close by. However, refining shop items now returns only 15% credits (down from 75%), and Epic item drops are rarer, pushing players to grind smarter.
UI and Quality-of-Life Fixes
New icons for "Replenish from Storage" make resupplying intuitive. Replicator crafting times increased for some thermal scopes, but Monolith progression adds an extra queue slot. The "Other notifications" setting now mutes weapon jam and low ammo alerts, cutting down on chatter. Bugs like incorrect death causes on dogtags and beacon animations in Nexus spectator mode are squashed.
As a fan, these changes make Active Matter feel more polished, especially for competitive raids. They encourage adaptive playstyles without overhauling the core loop. For full details, check the official Gaijin Entertainment site.
