*The Arbiter’s daughter has been drawn to the otherworldly since she was a child, but her father taught her only to drive and shoot, with the hope of making Alva his own bodyguard in the future. The Firestarters offered a compromise: they recognized the girl’s potential and took her with them, continuing not only to nurture her cruelty but also providing her with occult knowledge. However, the shamans soon cast the young witch out for her different view of their ideology: while fire was the most important element for them, Alva drew her strength from death. She believed that by killing a man in a fair fight, one could take away the power of the defeated.*

*For years Alva wandered through the woods, communicating with spirits and searching for her destiny, until eventually she stumbled upon an abandoned armoured car in a cave in the swamp. The young woman decided that the vehicle was inhabited by an ancient raven spirit named Kutkh, who needed to absorb souls in order to live. The witch was able to start the car and returned to her father, who immediately offered Alva to become his bodyguard. Such cooperation was beneficial for everyone: the attempts on Petrolium’s life happened quite often, and Alva with her armoured vehicle were eager to kill.*

## Other

* The amount of places where a player’s car could potentially get stuck in the environment objects on the “Wrath of Khan” map has been reduced.
* Improved collision models for rocket systems in the “Old town” map. Now projectiles will correctly fly through those places that don’t have any visual obstacles for them.

Improved a number of in-game icons, buttons and windows.

* Now all holograms have a sound that is played when they are shut down.
* Added 2 new music tracks specially for the Festival brawls:

* Added TAA (temporal anti-aliasing) — a new anti-aliasing technology. You can learn more about this change from our announcement.
	+ The technology replaces all MSAA anti-aliasing options. FXAA and SMAA technologies are still available in the game.
	+ Also, when this type of anti - aliasing is enabled, you can adjust its sharpness.
* Reworked the physical and visual models of the machine gun “LM-54 Chord”. Attention! The change can lead to an error in the assembled armoured vehicles if the models of the machine gun and adjacent parts overlap each other. In this case, it’s necessary to mount the machine gun differently.
* Improved display of stickers in the storage.
* Improved the physical model of the cabin “Cockpit”. New welding points were also added to the cabin.
* Improved the physical model of the “Fukigayeshi” decor.
* Improved activation and deactivation animations for built-in scopes and scope modules.
* Now the hologram “Sword of Damocles” is activated only if the animation from the previous activation ended 5 or more seconds ago.

* Fixed a bug where the “Sword of Damocles” hologram would activate after destroying enemy wheel drones.
* Fixed a bug where the area damage from the “Yokai” projectile didn’t affect the mines of the “Kapkan”.
* Fixed an issue where the “Render Scale” setting for “FidelityFX Super Resolution 1.0” technology became temporarily unavailable after changing the anti-aliasing technology.
* Fixed a bug where falling into water in certain areas of the Syndicate garage would not lead to the destruction of the vehicle.
* Changed the logic of the leviathans when shooting plasma emitters. Incorrect firing led to a decrease in the amount of damage dealt.
* Fixed and optimized the calculation of physical parameters of an armoured car during part destruction, which led, among other, to a strong decrease in the flight altitude and mobility of hovers.
* Now the weapon scopes ignore destructible objects.
* Fixed a bug where charging the “Astraeus” weapon caused damage to vehicle parts, even if the shot was not fired.
* Fixed a bug where flamethrower firing sounds could be cut off when pressing the fire key was pressed quickly in sequence in areas where there was an echo effect.
* Improved the physical models of the “BC-17 Tsunami” and “CC-18 Typhoon” cannons. Now, in case they are mounted symmetrically, there are no issues with different rotation angles.
