v1.48Latest

Welcome gift missions

  • NewWelcome gift missions: the free diamonds for verifying on Discord now unlock once you have played a little - a few public matches and some minutes in matches. Your progress shows on the home screen above Play, and the diamonds come by in-game mail as soon as it is done.
  • FixedA gun you pick up comes loaded again: no reload right after your first loot.
  • ImprovedYour Discord status shows the Join the Discord button only.
v1.47

Lobby voice and the voice overlay

  • NewLobby voice: talk with your party in the lobby, before and between matches - the same push-to-talk key and microphone as in a match. Only your party hears you, and your microphone stays closed while you are alone. Turn it off in Settings > Voice chat > Lobby voice.
  • NewVoice overlay: a small panel over the game shows who is talking, and lights up when you are. Put it under the minimap or over your team's names, or turn it off, in Settings > Voice chat. It shows with the game windowed or borderless.
  • FixedThe launcher's minimize, maximize and close buttons work again.
  • FixedAn old game patch left in the game folder by an earlier launcher is removed, so it can no longer override newer game files.
v1.46

A new server, a fresh start and a big update

  • NewROS Reborn moved to a new server. Everyone starts fresh: make a new account in this launcher (the old server and its accounts are gone).
  • NewThe game, its updates and this launcher now download from our new download server. Older launchers can no longer connect: use this one.
  • NewDiscord status: your Discord profile shows that you play ROS Reborn - in the lobby, matching or in a match, and for how long. Turn it off in Settings > Game.
  • NewFrame generation (Settings > Game, needs GPU boost): 2x, 3x or Auto puts extra frames between the game's own to fill a high refresh rate monitor. The in-game FPS counter shows it, e.g. "200 FPS (2x)".
  • NewMore FPS caps: 240, 360 and Unlimited.
  • NewThe week's strongest platoon: the No. 1 of the Platoon Ranking when the week starts (Monday 00:00 PH time) gets the Rank 1 mark in the lobby, and its members wear a crown on the starting island.
  • NewPromo packs on sale: Deep Freeze, Rainbow, Zeus' Wrath and Spark.
  • NewThe Workshop's Remodel and Aircraft work, with the game's own series and odds.
  • ImprovedVIP Gold works as the VIP screen describes it, with Claim all and its red dot. Everyone's credit score starts at 999.
  • ImprovedSmoother starting island: far fewer freezes while players join, and opening your bag the first time no longer stutters.
  • ImprovedSpectating a player who is still on the plane shows the plane.
  • ImprovedParty and matching: Ready marks show at once, and your duo stays together on the way back from a match.
  • ImprovedBefore a planned server restart you are told in game, and your match is not cut off without a warning.
  • ImprovedTimed and trial looks come off when they run out, and the VIP name card trial shows.
  • FixedAuto Add keeps your choice: an unticked box no longer comes back ticked.
  • FixedDrowning, footstep marks, cancelling Tandem and the ranked points after a match.
  • FixedOthers now see you get a grenade ready; a player who leaves out of sight shows "has left the game"; a Healer revive gives its buff; a car's engine sound after you switch seats while it rolls.
  • FixedDamage numbers spread out properly after you resize the window, and the first-person lean feels the same at any frame rate.
  • FixedAn airdrop box shows each item as one stack.
  • FixedCustom rooms no longer get stuck after one is reopened.
  • FixedA bot that kills you shows the gun it used.
  • FixedA map you don't have ends in a tip instead of a download offer, and the event pages close with their button or Esc.
  • FixedEvery game start left about 28 MB of temporary files behind on your PC, which could add up to many GB. The launcher now clears the old ones by itself when you press Play.
  • FixedIf you once typed the old server's address into Settings, the launcher now ignores it and connects to the new server by itself.
  • Coming soonNew modes, opening when we announce them: Hero Clash (heroes with skills), Krazy Mode PLUS (1000 HP, Wild guns and armor), the armored Train, and ROStopia - a world of your own to play in and edit.
  • Coming soonThe tournament observer (OB) for custom rooms: the full HUD, the player card, the team list, a free camera and the result board.
v1.45

Smoother matches

  • ImprovedFewer stutters in a match: the game's own background checks that froze the picture for a moment every few seconds are turned off.
  • ImprovedA little less work every frame to move the other players, most noticeable in crowded fights.
  • FixedWhen something in the game kept erroring over and over, it dragged your FPS down with it. Now it is counted once and your FPS stays where it was.
  • ImprovedThe lobby no longer runs at 300+ FPS: it is capped at 144 FPS (or your own FPS cap if that is lower). Matches keep your full FPS.
  • ImprovedThese download by themselves (from your next match or lobby visit).
v1.44

Top up diamonds with QR Ph

  • NewTop up is open: buy diamonds in pesos - PHP 60 for 120 diamonds up to PHP 6,480 for 12,960. In the launcher (the diamond button in the left bar, or Menu > Top up) or in the game's own TOP UP screen. You pay on PayMongo's secure page in your browser with QR Ph - scan it with GCash, Maya or your bank app.
  • NewYour diamonds arrive by themselves a few seconds after you pay - in the game too, no relog needed. The launcher's Top up page lists your top-ups and their status.
  • Fixed"Login failed: Server is offline" at busy evening hours: the server now takes many more logins at once and no longer slows down the longer it runs.
  • ImprovedHealer darts reach teammates farther away (out to the dart's full range).
v1.43

New option: hide other players' skins for more FPS

  • NewSettings > Game > "Show other players' skins": turn it off and everyone else looks plain in your game - no outfits, body skins, wings, pendants or gun skins (their character and flag stay). Fewer heavy models means more FPS on a crowded island and in big fights. Only your own view changes: the others still see your skins and theirs. Takes effect from your next match.
  • ImprovedA little less work every frame: your own speed buffs are checked a few times a second instead of every frame.
  • FixedGunshot and footstep marks no longer log an error for a player whose body is still loading.
  • ImprovedThe game parts download by themselves (from your next match); the new setting comes with this launcher update.
v1.42

Sharper picture, sound marks, team names on the map

  • ImprovedSharper picture on big screens: on a 1440p or 4K monitor the battle was drawn at 1080p and stretched, so even Vivid looked blurry. From the HD Resolution option up it is now drawn at your screen's own size. (Lower Resolution options keep the game's scaling for FPS.)
  • FixedGunshot and footstep marks show on the compass and the minimap again - also for a shooter behind you. Running enemies are heard farther than walking ones, as in the original game.
  • FixedThe big map (M) lists every teammate by name again.
  • FixedSoftdrinks and the Healer injection no longer heal you to full: a drink heals over time as its item says (a new drink restarts it instead of stacking), and the Healer injection on yourself gives its speed boost only. A Healer dart on a teammate still heals them.
  • Coming soonHealer darts on teammates far away: your game now draws the dart out to its full range; the server part comes with the next maintenance.
  • FixedThe plane screen's "follow teammate" rows work again.
  • FixedBig Speaker messages show their banner in the lobby again.
  • FixedMany small errors when leaving a match and going back to the lobby are gone, and a short freeze about a minute into a match is removed.
  • ImprovedThese download by themselves (from your next match or lobby visit).
v1.41

Drones, spectating, skins and a smoother match

  • NewDrones work: H launches and flies it (WASD, Space up, Shift down), G switches between its camera and yours, Z / X fire its modules (scan, bomb, EMI, noise, search, repair, long range). Batteries and modules go in the bag's drone tab (Tab). It runs on power and is lost out of power or too far from you - H brings it home. Everyone sees it fly and can shoot it down.
  • ImprovedSpectating shows the player's own view: where they look and aim, their scope zoom and first or third person.
  • NewMatchmaking shows the estimated wait ("Time: 45 secs") from how fast recent matches filled, next to the time you have been waiting.
  • FixedDuplicate skins: a skin you already own from a supply is turned into its shards at once (Regular / Adv. Look Shards or Secret Blueprints, as the game's own table says - e.g. 250 shards for many Legendaries), your balance updates and a message shows what you got. Convert Repeats in the Depot now pays the full amounts too.
  • FixedPicking up items: one press gives one item - holding the key or busy matches no longer hand out the same item twice or leave a taken item lying there.
  • FixedCar skins: 32 skins that were refused can be equipped and used again (Jade Shadow on the three-wheeler too). The gun skin's Show button works, for you and everyone watching, and players with many gun skins show them all.
  • FixedStore Packs: the Simple Tech AR15 and Barrett previews show their guns again.
  • FixedSkateboards (and bikes and motorcycles): other players now see the rider push, ride and jump - no more standing still on a sliding board.
  • FixedThe safe-zone timer no longer flickers: it counts down smoothly, and while the zone closes it shows the progress bar.
  • FixedThrowables: the one you pick is the one in your hand and the one you throw, and the counts stay right.
  • FixedGrenades, launchers and Molotov fire no longer hurt you through solid walls.
  • FixedShots through walls after a lag spike: hits made on a picture more than a second old no longer count.
  • FixedLong-range shots through buildings on Low graphics: every graphics setting (Performance mode too) now keeps buildings, rocks and trees solid out to 1 km, so nobody can shoot through them at 600-700 m.
  • FixedGetting off a bike (or any vehicle) no longer turns you around: you and your camera face where you were looking.
  • FixedSTART no longer fails with "could not be entered (load-map)" after dying in first person.
  • ImprovedAnti-cheat: gliding after landing is caught, and a new alert catches hits on players the shooter could not see.
  • ImprovedThese download by themselves (from your next match or lobby visit).
v1.40

Shots through walls, stricter anti-cheat

  • ImprovedStricter anti-cheat: speed hacks on foot, too-fast gliding and teleports are now caught and banned sooner (already live).
  • Coming soonShots through walls after a lag spike: when a shooter's connection froze, their game kept hitting players where it last saw them, and those hits landed seconds later - after you were already behind a wall. Your game now tells the server how old its view is, and from the next server maintenance hits made on a view more than 1 second old no longer count. (A hit just as you reach cover can still happen - everyone sees the others a split second late in any online game.)
  • NewA new cheat alert for hits on players the server never showed the shooter.
  • ImprovedThese download by themselves (from your next match).
v1.39

More FPS with Performance mode, halos in matches

  • ImprovedPerformance mode is now a max-FPS mode: turn it on in Settings > Game and the game runs at its lowest graphics - about 30-70% more FPS in big fights in our tests. This game is held back by your CPU, not your graphics card, so high graphics cost FPS even on a strong GPU. Turn it off and your own graphics settings come back.
  • NewHalos and pendants now show in matches - on you and on everyone who wears one (Blitz Halo's lightning on the hands and feet included).
  • ImprovedThese download by themselves (from your next game start or match).
v1.38

Faster loading, fair islands, lobby fixes

  • ImprovedFaster loading into a match and into the lobby: the character models every load was waiting for are now loaded once at the start and kept, instead of from scratch each time. On slow hard disks the map's files are also read ahead while you are matching.
  • FixedIsland exploit: anything dropped on the spawn island is gone once the plane leaves, for everyone, and the island's own loot is cleared too - nobody can swim back for it.
  • FixedA gun picked up on the island at the last moment no longer comes down with you from the plane.
  • FixedHealer darts: you carry at most 3, as the game intends (the island loadout no longer hands out 120).
  • FixedHealing in a car: a crash now interrupts a Bandage or Soft drink in use, for the driver and every passenger.
  • FixedThrowables: switching to melee or a gun after pulling the pin cancels the throw and its aiming line disappears.
  • FixedLobby: your halo, pendants and newest outfit show on your character after a match (it was sometimes dressed in an older outfit).
  • FixedLobby emoji (stickers) show over your character again - and over your teammates'.
  • ImprovedA faster lobby during busy hours (server side, already live).
  • ImprovedThese fixes download by themselves while you play (from your next match or lobby visit).
v1.37

Big bug fix update: landing, weapons, vehicles, hit registration

  • FixedLanding on a building or roof no longer leaves you stuck lying down, floating or unable to stand - the glide now ends the moment you touch down.
  • FixedThe glider sound stops when you land, get knocked down or die - it no longer stays stuck on you.
  • FixedShotgun reload bypass: switching weapons no longer refills an empty magazine. A reload you cut short stays cut short (every gun).
  • FixedThrowables: you can switch between every throwable you carry with the Molotov equipped, and when your last Molotov is gone the next throwable comes up.
  • FixedPassenger seat: passengers stay seated and leaned out while they shoot - for themselves and for everyone watching.
  • FixedType 009 RPG (and every launcher): a direct hit always does its full damage - no more 1-damage hits. Monster Trucks and other vehicles take the full hit wherever it lands, and riders in moving cars get hit.
  • FixedVehicle spawns (Logging Camp and everywhere): cars are set on the ground and clear of log piles and walls before they appear.
  • FixedHit registration on rushing players: every player within 150 m is now drawn and can be hit. The game only drew your nearest 5-10 players, so someone rushing in could be impossible to hit.
  • FixedSpecial weapon kill effects: every special skin (Astral Blaster and the rest) shows its own kill notice and colour in duo, fireteam and squad too - not the default yellow.
  • ImprovedSmoother island and plane: the game's memory cleanup that froze the screen for a split second now runs under the loading screen and the cut to the plane.
  • ImprovedFaster lobby: friend suggestions and the online players list answer at once.
  • Coming soonSniper not firing right after a weapon switch: its likely cause (an old reload timer) is gone, and the game now reports it to us if it still happens.
  • Coming soonA faster lobby server and kill notices on finishes and bleed-outs come with the next server maintenance.
  • ImprovedThese fixes download by themselves while you play (from your next match).
v1.36

Bug fixes: loot, shard Convert, Moon Wingman

  • FixedItems that came back on the ground after being looted - visible, but impossible to pick up - are now cleared away as you get near them.
  • FixedA pickup someone else won no longer leaves the item invisible for you, and a slow pickup answer is no longer lost.
  • FixedBeing shot at from far behind you is heard and seen again from the first shot. The anti-wallhack update hid it until a bullet hit you.
  • FixedVehicle shards: the Convert button works. With enough shards (Depot > Items > Fragments) you get the vehicle - the same recipes as the original game.
  • FixedWingman - New Moon (and every Wingman) now flies beside the plane with you, with any paraglider or none, and other players see it too.
  • FixedLobby themes and backgrounds follow your Music Volume: silent at 0, quieter as you turn it down.
  • Coming soonGun stops firing after scoping in and out fast at close range: not reproduced yet. The game now reports it to us by itself when it happens, so we can fix it.
  • ImprovedThese fixes download by themselves while you play (from your next match or lobby visit).
v1.35

Voice chat in matches

  • NewVoice chat in matches, right in the launcher: your squad always hears you, and players close to you (about 40 m) hear you too - quieter with distance, and from the side they stand on (stereo). Opus sound, low on bandwidth.
  • NewPush-to-talk or voice activation - your choice in Settings > Voice chat. Pick your push-to-talk key (Caps Lock by default; Mouse 4 / Mouse 5 work too), or set how loud you must speak with the sensitivity slider and the microphone test.
  • NewMicrophone and speakers on / off, your input and output device, voice volume, and a Mute button for every player you heard this match.
  • NewAnti-wallhack: the server no longer sends your game the enemies you cannot see - far away, or well behind you. Cheats have less to show, and your PC has fewer players to draw in big fights.
  • FixedThe most common game crash - the game closing as you enter or leave a match - is fixed.
  • ImprovedYour microphone is only opened during a match. Dead players can still talk to their own team; spectators have no voice.
  • Coming soonVoice in the lobby party, and the game's own voice buttons in the HUD.
v1.34

More FPS in crowded fights

  • ImprovedFar-away players and vehicles now use their lower-detail models (the game's own level-of-detail setting, which was switched off on PC). Players within about 60 m (cars 120 m) still look exactly the same - the rest costs your PC much less, for more FPS when lots of players are around.
  • ImprovedHit detection is not affected: shots use the same hit boxes as before.
  • ImprovedThese game fixes download by themselves while you play (from your next match).
v1.33

Game file protection & a faster lobby

  • NewGame file protection: before you play, your game files are checked. A modified or damaged file is repaired by itself (only the changed part is downloaded); if it can't be repaired, the game won't start until you press Repair.
  • NewFiles are checked again while you play. Changing game files mid-match (for example to see through walls) closes the game and is reported to the anti-cheat.
  • NewExtra DLLs or loose files dropped into the game folder (cheat loaders, proxy DLLs) are moved aside to a quarantine folder, never deleted. GPU boost's own files are recognised and left alone.
  • ImprovedA smoother lobby: leaderboards no longer freeze it while they refresh, and supply draws cost the server much less.
  • ImprovedSettings > Repair now re-checks every game file, not just missing ones.
  • FixedCorrection to 1.32: the "cut about a third of the main-thread work" item turned out to be a measurement error - that part of the game was already cheap, so it has been dropped.
  • Coming soonLower-detail models for far-away players (the game's own setting, on in the beta) for more FPS in crowded fights - being tested.
v1.32

Smoother frames & fewer hitches

  • ImprovedSmooth mode now also gives the game a 1 ms Windows timer and higher priority (new game update, downloads by itself): steadier frame times, fewer uneven frames.
  • FixedNo more hitch when other players and their outfits first appear: their models load ahead, and players near you in a fight still appear instantly.
  • FixedNo more short freeze when you pick up several guns or items at once: they are put on one per frame.
  • ImprovedFar-away players' guns and poses update only when it matters, so busy fights cost your PC less. Teammates, players in your scope and anyone shooting at you always stay exact.
  • ImprovedLess work when you switch weapons (1 / 2 / 3).
  • ImprovedThe game reports its FPS and where each frame's time goes (no names), so we can keep finding and fixing slow spots.
  • Coming soonA bigger CPU cut: about a third of the game's main-thread work per frame, for more FPS in crowded fights.
  • Coming soonGame file protection: modified game files (e.g. for wallhacks) are repaired before you play and reported.
v1.31

Smooth mode, fewer stutters & a calmer store

  • NewSmooth mode (Settings > Game): one switch for steadier frame times - GPU boost, an FPS cap at your monitor's refresh rate, and (with the next game update) a finer Windows timer and higher game priority. Each part can also be set on its own.
  • NewFPS cap (Settings > Game): 60 / 90 / 120 / 144 or your monitor's refresh rate. A steady cap feels smoother than an FPS that jumps up and down, and works with or without GPU boost.
  • ImprovedFewer freezes in fights: the game's memory clean-up no longer runs in the middle of a fight - it waits for the island, the plane, a death, spectating or a quiet moment.
  • ImprovedLess work per frame for the game when many players are around (about a fifth less), so FPS holds up better in busy fights.
  • FixedStore: a pack that can't be bought now closes the buy window with the reason, instead of leaving it open to press Buy again and again.
  • ImprovedThe Performance log shows which Smooth mode settings each game ran with.
  • Coming soonFewer hitches when other players and vehicles first come into view.
  • Coming soonA smoother lobby while many players are drawing, and leaderboards that don't freeze it.
v1.30

Anti-cheat, FPS overlay & performance log

  • NewAnti-cheat: the server now watches every match. Speed hacks, teleporting, impossible fire rate, damage or range, far-away pickups and forged game data are detected, and clear-cut cheaters are banned automatically.
  • NewShow FPS overlay (Settings > Game, with GPU boost on): your FPS, a frame-time graph and GPU load in the corner of the game.
  • NewPerformance log (Settings > Game): your recent games with average FPS, 1% lows, stutters and the worst frame, with GPU boost on or off, so you can compare.
  • FixedSupply draws, the store, gift bags and mail no longer give untranslated or display-only skins that show up invisible in a match.
  • Coming soonFewer stutters and higher FPS in busy fights.
  • Coming soonA smoother lobby while many players are drawing, and leaderboards that don't freeze it.
v1.29

No more bounces back to the lobby, spectator & skin fixes, GPU boost

  • FixedSlow PCs are no longer sent back to the lobby after loading onto the island: a false "battle server is not answering" message no longer appears when you arrive.
  • FixedAfter a server restart you are logged in again by yourself and keep matching, instead of being bounced. If a round really closes before the plane, you are told why and lose no rank.
  • FixedJoining a match now waits longer on slow connections and shows the server's real reason if it is refused.
  • FixedSpectating: your own scope no longer opens while you are dead or watching. Team spectate only switches between your teammates, and the ◀ ▶ arrows on the spectate panel work.
  • FixedNo more invisible vehicles or characters from untranslated or display-only skins: in a match they show the default look instead, and the Depot won't equip them.
  • NewGPU boost (experimental, off by default): Settings > Game > GPU boost runs the game on Vulkan (DXVK) for higher, smoother FPS on most NVIDIA / AMD / recent Intel GPUs. It turns itself off if the game won't start with it.
  • ImprovedThese game fixes download by themselves while you play.
  • Coming soonFewer stutters and higher FPS in busy fights.
  • Coming soonA smoother lobby while many players are drawing, and leaderboards that don't freeze it.
  • Coming soonAnti-cheat: speed, teleport, fire-rate and damage hacks detected and banned automatically.
v1.28

Emotes on the plane & what is coming next

  • FixedAn emote or action started on the spawn island now stops when the plane picks you up, for you and for everyone watching. It no longer keeps playing through the plane, the fall and the parachute.
  • FixedEmotes can't be started on the plane, while falling, on the parachute or gliding; they also stop when you land, get in a vehicle, get knocked down or die.
  • ImprovedThese game fixes download by themselves while you play.
  • Coming soonA smoother lobby: leaderboards that no longer freeze the lobby for a moment, and faster supply draws (next server update).
  • Coming soonNo more invisible vehicles or characters from untranslated / display-only skins, and supplies no longer give them.
  • Coming soonSpectator fixes: no scope of your own while watching, and who you can watch in solo / duo / squad / fireteam as in the original.
  • Coming soonSlow PCs no longer sent back to the lobby after loading onto the island.
  • Coming soonAnti-cheat: speed, teleport, fire-rate and damage hacks are detected and banned automatically.
v1.27

Supply draws per event, parachute control & a faster lobby

  • NewEvery supply event now gives its own items, at the odds shown on its "?" screen, instead of one shared pool. Monthly Supply has its own prizes too: Space Pirate, Supernova and Nova X1.
  • FixedNo more AKM skins every 10 draws: the old "rare every 10" pool is gone. Each event's own guarantee from the original game applies instead.
  • ImprovedLess gold from supply draws: at most about 1 in 4 draws is gold, the rest are emotes, sprays and items. Tickets stay at the original rate.
  • ImprovedTickets won from supply draws now show up in your ticket counters.
  • NewRare draws are announced: when someone gets a legendary item from a supply, every lobby sees it in the top banner.
  • NewLucky hours: the server can make rare items easier to get from supply draws at set times. When one starts, it's announced in the top banner.
  • FixedParachute: after jumping from the plane you can steer right away with the mouse, no need to press Alt first.
  • FixedIn-battle actions (like Sunbathe) equipped in the Depot play again when you pick them in a match, and other players see them.
  • ImprovedA faster lobby while many players are drawing: each draw, purchase and menu now costs the server a fraction of the work, and the supply screen opens without asking the server again each time.
  • FixedWingman names no longer stay on screen after you drop from the plane onto the island.
  • ImprovedThese game fixes download by themselves while you play.
  • Coming soonLeaderboards that no longer freeze the lobby for a moment when they refresh.
v1.26

Vehicle shooting, wingman jumps & loot fixes

  • FixedPassengers leaning out of a vehicle to shoot are now seen by everyone: the lean, the gun, where they aim and their shots.
  • FixedParaglider / Wingman: choosing Parachute on the plane no longer hides your character and leaves you looking at the ground. Your wingman stays beside the plane, and you can jump and dive right away.
  • FixedWhile gliding, the minimap and HUD follow you instead of staying on the plane.
  • FixedItems already picked up no longer stay visible on the ground.
  • FixedA crash when leaving a finished match.
  • ImprovedThese fixes download by themselves while you play.
v1.25

Fewer crashes, armor that wears, vehicle fixes

  • FixedThe most common crash in matches (when loot on the ground disappeared - picked up, out of view) is fixed: loot is no longer deleted during a match.
  • FixedDead players can no longer drop, use or throw items while watching a teammate (the items appeared at the teammate's feet).
  • NewHelmets and vests wear down and break like in the original game: they lose durability as they stop damage, and a broken one protects nothing. The HUD and your bag show what is left, and dropped gear keeps its wear.
  • FixedGetting out of a vehicle next to a wall no longer leaves you stuck in the wall.
  • FixedThe game's own "stuck" button works again: it moves you to a free spot nearby.
  • FixedSUV skins (and other vehicle skins) no longer distort the screen. Hover-vehicle skins can't be put on a car for now - a message tells you so.
  • ImprovedThe lobby is much faster when the server is full, and coming back to the lobby after a match loads quicker.
  • ImprovedThese fixes download by themselves while you play.
v1.24

Performance mode, more FPS & steadier logins

  • NewPerformance mode (Settings > Game): more FPS on weak PCs - the 3D view drawn at 75% (menus stay sharp), smaller textures, simpler distant objects, no live shadows. Nothing that lets you see more than other players. On from the next game start.
  • ImprovedMore FPS in full matches: the game does less work every frame for the players and cars around you.
  • Fixed"Server did not answer" and "not logged in" when the server is busy: a login is no longer sent twice (the second one cancelled the first), and the game logs back in by itself after a server restart instead of losing your saves.
  • ImprovedA game update closed running games once.
v1.23

The game starts, the launcher opens

  • FixedScopes work again in every match (a change from earlier today had stopped them).
  • Fixed"The game stopped (code 2)": some sign-ins could never start the game. They can now.
  • Fixed"The game stopped (code 1)": the game now starts even when another program (IIS, Skype, VMware, XAMPP...) uses the ports it needs.
  • FixedDamaged game files are found before the game starts and repaired by themselves, then the game starts again. "The runtime bundle is damaged" no longer comes back at every start.
  • FixedThe launcher always opens: starting it again (also as administrator) brings the running one forward, one stuck in the background can be closed from the message that appears, and a window that Windows' compatibility settings or an antivirus kept from opening now opens.
  • ImprovedThe game's files are now signed, so Windows Smart App Control blocks far fewer of them. If it still blocks the game, the launcher tells you how to turn it off.
  • ImprovedA game update closed running games once: every fix of today is now part of the game itself.
v1.22

Fewer crashes, attachments, grenades & rank points

  • FixedThe most common in-match crash (when items on the ground disappear - picked up, out of view or at the end of a match) has a new fix: loot items no longer reuse each other's models.
  • FixedPicking up a better attachment puts it on your gun in place of the lower one (the gun in your hands first), and the old one goes into your bag.
  • FixedA grenade's 5-second fuse starts when you pull the pin, not again when you throw it. Hold it too long and it goes off in your hand.
  • FixedGetting out of a Monster Truck (or any tall vehicle) puts you on the ground beside your door, never on its roof.
  • FixedIn-game emotes (actions) play again, and your teammates see them.
  • FixedLeaning (Q / E) no longer stops your character or swallows your other keys for a moment: when a lean isn't allowed, you simply don't lean.
  • ImprovedFar players and cars move smoothly while you look through a scope, so far shots are easier to land.
  • ImprovedRank points: leaving while the match loads or on the spawn island costs nothing and doesn't count as a match. Quitting while you're still alive in play counts as last place and costs 10 points.
  • FixedOn the team result, a teammate who left early no longer shows the team's points.
  • Coming soonThe team result will show how far your teammates travelled and how many supplies they picked up.
  • ImprovedRestart the game once to get these fixes - they download by themselves.
v1.21

Molotovs, supply drops, throwables & cars

  • FixedA Molotov's fire only burns players on its own floor: you no longer take fire damage upstairs when it lands on the floor below.
  • FixedSupply drops land on the ground. One that comes down before the ground around it has loaded is moved onto it once it has.
  • FixedThrowables no longer duplicate when you drop them: a dropped grenade leaves your bag, and dropping your last one empties your hand.
  • FixedCars with a skin (like the KOF sports car skins) keep their own fuel tank and engine and drive normally.
  • ImprovedA game update closed running games once: every fix of today (crashes, FPS, knock-downs and these) is now part of the game itself.
v1.20

Knock-down fix

  • FixedGetting knocked down right as a revive ends (or while crouching or standing up) no longer leaves you standing, stuck and bleeding out: you go down properly, for you and your teammates.
v1.19

Crash fixes & smoother big matches

  • FixedThe game no longer closes during matches when items, players, cars or death boxes disappear while the game is still loading them in (the most common in-match crash, often on the spawn island).
  • FixedThe store no longer closes the game when you look at gun packs and skins: guns in previews are now shown still, without their animation.
  • FixedSlower PCs no longer crash while the match is still loading in: the game now waits longer for the battle to finish loading.
  • ImprovedBetter FPS in full matches: players and cars far away (over 150 m) update a little less often, and nothing is redone when it hasn't changed.
  • ImprovedRestart the game once to get these fixes - they download by themselves.
v1.18

Game update: every fix built in

  • ImprovedA game update closed running games once: every fix from 1.15 to 1.17 is now part of the game itself, the same for every player in a match.
  • FixedThe store and late-join island crashes, the stuck "Not enough Diamonds" dialog, teammates who left showing alive, dead players driving and getting stuck in a car - all included.
  • ImprovedSupply drops land in the open and gas cans are on the ground in every match.
  • ImprovedIf the game still closes by itself, it now tells us exactly where - keep reporting it, each report gets a fix.
v1.17

Fewer auto-closes

  • FixedThe game no longer closes when you look at the AWM - Mech Beauty packs in the store (their preview is shown still).

  • FixedDuo / squad: a teammate who quits is shown as left, not alive at full health.
  • FixedDead and spectating players can no longer get into or drive vehicles.
  • FixedGetting into a vehicle no longer leaves you stuck on the ground; if a seat doesn't load, you're put back out.

v1.16

  • FixedPlayers in a back seat are shown sitting, not standing.
  • ImprovedSports drinks heal slowly: 1 HP every 3 seconds for 2 minutes (40 HP), plus the speed boost. Drink it before a fight, not at full health.
  • ImprovedWhen the game closes by itself (in the store or on the spawn island), it now reports exactly what it was doing, so these crashes can be fixed quickly. The game update closed running games once to install this.
  • Coming soonFixes for the store and spawn island crashes, and the grenade that sometimes stays in your hand.
v1.15

Fuel & chat fixes

  • Fixed"Failed to retrieve patches" after using the game's own Repair / Fix client: press Settings > Repair in the launcher. It puts back the game files the game's Repair deleted (only those - your settings stay).
  • ImprovedThe game's own Fix client button no longer deletes your game files; it points you to the launcher's Repair.
  • FixedCars use fuel while you drive, not only with nitro. A full tank lasts about 3 minutes of driving; when it runs dry the car stops.

  • FixedYour own Team and Nearby chat messages show in your chat again.

v1.14

Fewer crashes & Repair game

  • FixedJoining the spawn island late (a slower PC that finishes loading after the others) no longer closes the game: the other players appear a moment after your screen is ready, the nearest first.
  • FixedThe Demon Hunter wheel opens again.
  • FixedClicking a supply draw twice no longer draws (and charges) twice.
  • FixedA gun set to single shot stays on single shot when you switch weapons or use your knife.

  • ImprovedThe launcher checks the game runtime before each start and repairs it by itself when a file is missing.
v1.13

Bigger servers & a security fix

  • NewThe battle server now uses every CPU core: many more players can be in matches at the same time, with up to 60 per match.
  • NewThe launcher shows how many players are online and in battle, under the Play button.
  • FixedSecurity: some old game program files are replaced with clean, signed copies automatically when you start the game. Please run a full Windows Security scan on your PC.
v1.12

Nearby chat & bigger bags

  • FixedNearby chat works in battle - players around you (about 200 m, any team) see what you say.
  • FixedTeam chat lines reach your teammates in full - they used to stop after 40 characters.

  • ImprovedThe game window is now called ROS Reborn 2.0.
v1.11

No more duplicate loot

  • FixedTwo players grabbing the same item at once no longer both get it - the first one wins, the other sees "Someone else picked it up first".
  • FixedA gun you drop keeps the bullets that were in it - picking it back up is no longer a free reload, and the Healer no longer gets endless shots.
  • FixedThe Healer revives a downed teammate you aim at from far away - the dart used to fly over the body and miss.
  • FixedVehicle skins only fit their own vehicle - a skin can no longer turn a truck into a different car.
  • Coming soonGuns taken from a death box keep the bullets they had.
v1.10

Teammate cards

  • FixedTeammates show their name card (flag, name, distance) on the spawn island as soon as they join - no more waiting for the plane.

  • Coming soonFixes for picked-up items being duplicated, full ammo after picking a dropped gun back up, and vehicle skins changing the vehicle.
v1.9

Paragliders & Discord gift

  • NewYour paraglider flies beside the plane with you on it, like the original - teammates' gliders sit next to yours.
  • FixedEach paraglider has its own riding pose again - no more free-fall pose with the glider under you.
  • NewVerify your account on our Discord and a gift waits in your in-game mailbox (once per account).
  • Coming soonRandom rotating skins in the Discord verification gift.

  • ImprovedPlayers appear on the spawn island one by one as their game finishes loading, and "Waiting for players 03/05" shows who's still on the way.
