Pre-Launch Sneak Peeks

This page will show every sneak peek that has been released to the public before release. These sneak-peeks were released by Silver to introduce new models and items that would appear in the upcoming revamp.
All sneak peeks are sorted in chronological order.
== Weapon Sneak Peeks ==
=== M79 Thumper ===
The sneak peek revealed the model of a M79 Thumper, with its leaf-type sights unfolded. This sneak peek has been removed from oTheSilver's Twitter account and the Discord server's #sneak-peeks channel. The date it was shown on is unknown.
A sneak peek revealed the weapon in a live shooting range. It behaved much like an ordinary single-shot grenade launcher, with the exception of functioning foldable sights.
=== M4A1 ===
This sneak peek showed an unnamed rifle, teased on the 11th of April, 2022. It has a carry handle and a railed hand guard, with a stock similar to and what most likely is a Magpul stock.
The gun seems to be based off the M4 Carbine Rifle, but heavily modified.
=== Katana ===
This sneak peek showcased a custom katana, teased on the 24th of April, 2022. The handle and sheath have a generally yellow-black tone. 
A Japanese engraving can be found near the handle on the blade, roughly translating to Blackout in English.
=== GL-06 ===
The GL-06 grenade launcher was initially teased on the 3rd of May, 2022. With it being a grenade launcher not being seen in many video games, it undoubtedly gathered the attention of blackout fans.
=== Grenades ===
Several sneak peeks have shown various types of grenades, being: High explosive, Incendiary, Smoke and Flashbang. Not much note-worthy was shown, except for the Flashbang's blinding effect where the user can distinctively "see" the flash on the screen and the counter-play to the Incendiary grenade being the Smoke grenade.
=== Crossbow ===
The reverse limb crossbow was initially teased on the 11th of May, 2022 with three different types of arrows: Incendiary, Explosive and Regular. The weapon was shown in action 5 days later, showing each arrow type's effects.
In a YouTube sneak peek #5, the explosive arrow was replaced with a stun arrow. This arrow slightly deafens the target and reduces their overall speed, however it doesn't deal much damage compared to the rest of the arrow types.
=== M24 ===
The M24 was first shown on June 14, 2022, through oTheSilver's Twitter account.
=== AWM ===
The AWM was first shown on July 3, 2022, through oTheSilver's Twitter account.
In Youtube sneak peek #5, it was shown off in gameplay to demonstrate the new bullet penetration mechanic, and had the ability to destroy limbs in one shot, however this has been stated to be temporary, and will not be present in the final product.
=== Deagle ===

===G3===
The G3 was first shown on September 19, 2022, in Blackout sneak peek #6.
It was shown as a Battle Rifle doing a lot of damage but with a small magezine, and firerate.
In the sneak peek itself it can be seen with a Reflex Sight, and Sniper Scope.
== Core Sneak Peeks ==
=== Lockpicking ===

The sneak peek was released on Twitter, and showcased a lockpicking system that would appear in-game.
The system appears to be similar to the Dying Light series or most Bethesda games (Notably Fallout 4 and Skyrim).
It was the first sneak-peek released for the Blackout Revamp.
=== Parkour ===

The sneak peek showcased a parkour mechanic, which would allow the player to climb and hang on pipes and edges.
It was the first animation showcase revealed to the public.
=== Looting ===
The sneak peek showcased a looting system, as well as two types of grenades.
Players are able to loot dead bodies, and can take single-use items, cash, and valuables the body had.
The grenades showcased in the sneak peek appear to be based on the M84 Stun Grenade and the M67 Fragmentation Grenade.
The grenades also seem to have an arm-time when thrown, which takes around 1–2 before detonation.
While affected by the Stun Grenade, the player can see nothing but a black screen for 5 seconds while it fades out. 5 seconds later, the effect slowly begins to wear off. In all, the Stun Grenade effect lasts for 18 seconds.
This video also shows a "Hunger" bar G.U.I. in the bottom-left corner.
=== Rain, mini-map, tasks ===

This sneak peek showcased a rain system, minimap, and task system; the task showcased having the player carry a backpack to a NPC.
Players can see the location they have to reach to complete a task on the minimap. Interestingly, after 5 seconds of accepting the task, the player's location is revealed to all other players. This may mean that other players can attack, and steal the task from you.
The GIU for the task system seems to be similar to the armory NPC from the 2021 version of Blackout. 
=== Lighting ===

This sneak peek,https://twitter.com/oTheSilver/status/1506263847346356224 which was only revealed on Twitter, showed the new volumetric lighting which would be used in Blackout. 
=== Armor ===
The sneak peek showed a model of body armor and a helmet. The armor won't be in tiers, instead attachments will be purchasable to improve its viability in various ways, having either increased weight or protection."...you can buy armor attachments to improve protection or get more inventory space, so you can balance the armor the way you like" – oTheSilver, #sneak-peeks
=== Framework ===
This sneak peek showcased the new weapon framework most likely used for the revamp. It also showcased 2 new weapons: The Glock 17 and Glock 18.
The Glock 17 holds a maximum of 13 bullets per mag, and is a semi-automatic weapon. The Glock 18 holds a maximum of 20 bullets per mag, and is an automatic weapon.
The sneak peek showed a "Settings" and "Drop Money" GUI. The leaderboard GUI was also customized to look different from Roblox's original design.
=== Attachments ===
Most of the guns shown in the video sneak peeks are equipped with various different attachments, being: lasers, holographic and scope sights, flashlights, and suppressors.
However, foregrips have only been shown twice, being on 2 M4A1s in Youtube sneak peek #8.
=== Mechanics ===
This sneak peek showcased multiple mechanics and the looting systems.
Silver first showcased a dance gui/prompt. It has the basic Roblox animations, wave, point, sit, and dance. It has the similar green-ish futuristic style as with the other GUIs. There were then the new looting system, having duffel bags include guns, cash, and valuables instead of the more common “looting from the floor” type.
The new gun system is on full display here, With Silver using the SPAS-12 with a green laser and a reflex/simple red dot sight. It seems to be pretty similar to the previous gun system, but with a few changes.
The last showcase we got was a cross hair color picker, in which the color of the crosshair could be chosen by the settings GUI.
