Playtest #35 - Bot Power Battles!

19 Dec, 2024

Happy Holidays! Some large reworks have occurred this time around that we hope you enjoy.

This update we've tried to focus on the elimination game mode and bot support, so if you're only going to try one thing make sure it's a test of Human: Elimination with your bot teammates!

We also have a loadout system rework enabling full customisation during a match. A total recoil system overhaul to guns that allows players to counter and control gun kick. New power weapons accessible via gold resupply crates currently in Zombie: Horde mode and much more.

Please note that the bots have also received significant brainpower boosts and as a consequence they're using a bit more of the hosts's CPU than we would like. There are sliders to adjust the amount of bots via the 'Bot Elimination' button on the main menu as well is in the 'Admin Panel' during a match, but don't be afraid to hop into a dedicated server if your PC is struggling. There will be many bot optimisations in later patches.

Whether solo, coop or pvp - we hope you enjoy this extended playtest and have a safe and happy holiday season!

From December 20th at 12PM AEDT until January 3rd at 12PM AEDT:

Dedicated servers and P2P will be available 24/7.
Dedicated server events, community discussions, polls and LFG channels can be found via the Community Discord[discord.gg].

Everyone is welcome to Request Access and participate in any or all playtests. Please also Wishlist the game if you enjoy it or want to keep up to date on its progress, as this helps us a lot.

Patch notes for this release: v0.52

Playtest #34 - The Horde Awakens!

31 Oct, 2024

Halloween has arrived! After the launch of our new bots last month, we had to add a zombie mode for everyone to enjoy. It's time to face the horde!

We have added a coop menu to launch a private session using Steam invites, otherwise players can launch and vote to play the mode as per the normal host process.

Working on this mode allowed us to continue improving the bot logic, make some good optimisations and add more bot supported maps to the selection pool. Some other highlights include newly improved bipod functionality and animations, new passive and adaptive night vision selections, some optimisations to the player ragdolls and more improvements to the wound painting accuracy and consistency.

We invite everyone to jump on for some fun battling the hordes of the undead and let us know how many waves you manage to survive through!

From October 30th at 12PM AET until November 8th at 12PM AEDT:

Dedicated servers and P2P will be available 24/7.
Coop is now available and players can be invited or join using Steam Overlay
Dedicated server events, community discussions, polls and LFG channels can be found via the Community Discord[discord.gg].

Playtest #33 - Bots Have Arrived!

5 Sep, 2024

As requested by the community, the bots have arrived! Jump into a lobby solo or with friends on either Containment map to play some rounds populated with the newly implemented bots.

We finally have bots worthy of showing. This feature has been one of the most requested things by the community and they are now ready to be released. We plan to improve them a lot, but they can still hold their ground currently and navigate throughout the map if they want to take you out using their loadout of choice.

This is for all those players wanting some PVE and co-op action. Bot support will be iterated upon and they will make their mark on the game in a more meaningful way in the future.

Time to go and earn unlocks against bots for your favourite classes and weapons!

From September 6th at 12PM AET until September 13th at 12PM AET:

Dedicated servers and P2P will be available 24/7.
Dedicated server events, community discussions, polls and LFG channels can be found via the Community Discord[discord.gg].

Official Playtest "game nights"

not sure if this is already a thing on a discord somewhere, but I have really wanted to try this game as an old The Hidden fan but couldnt find any public matches during the last playtest. Even roping in a couple friends, its not the ideal experience of 6-8 players. I guess I'm just wondering if you already do scheduled "high player count" times during tests or whats up. I would like to actually experience this game one day because the hidden was my favorite ♥♥♥♥ back in the day...

Welcome!

First of all, thanks for taking an interest in Obscurity: Unknown Threat. We are an extremely small development team (2 of us) committed to releasing a game based on the fairly popular Obscurity mod we made a long time ago. We are creating Obscurity: Unknown Threat to include many different game modes and features, rather than just the original asymmetrical game mode based around an obscurity hunting down a team of soldiers. Monthly playtests are now well underway and can be signed up for on the main st...
