Anarchy: Old School, Developer Update
Community Update 3.0,
Howdy! It’s been a while hasn’t it? Today we will reveal our biggest upcoming update to Anarchy: Old School. So, you know how the name of the game is Old School? Well, does the game feel Old School to you? For me sure it does not. The first thing you will notice when playing on this new update, is that it feels nostalgic, you wanna know why? Because we have revamped how the game looks visually. Firstly, we have switched back to the old Roblox Lighting from 2014. Secondly, we have brought back the old NameTags and Health Bar. (Some of you folks that have played in 2015-2016 know what I’m talking about). Now, let’s actually see the updates.
Here are the noticeable updates:
Classic Lobby
Many of you complained that the old lobby was very modern and did not match the theme and design of the game, so we changed it. Below are some screenshots of how it looks like.
Guns now sparkle
Some of you from 2015-2016 loved them, so we brought them back.
And you can match your bullet trails with it if you have VIP. >:D
Classic Lighting
Roblox has deprecated their old Legacy Lighting Engine, forcing developers to switch to Voxel and ShadowMap. We are still using the Legacy Engine, which causes the game to have issues with lighting, shadows, light leaks, unproper shading, and so on. So we have manually updated how lighting is handled. We have fixed massive light leaks in buildings, saturated the shadows a bit more, added color correction to fix , and made the whole game look similarly to 2015-2016.
New Kill Feed
We have made a new Kill Feed which will display all the kills, unlike the old one. This new one is more pleasing to the eye too.
No More Spawn-Killing
You know how annoying it is when you spawn in Deathmatch and instantly die to a Noob that got a lucky spot at the end of the bridge, now you you have 3 seconds to prepare!
Mute Radio and Low Graphics
Oh boy, this was one of the most requested features since 2019. Now, the bling-bling boy will no longer buzz your ears with loud songs from overrated rappers. : D
NameTags and Healthbar
Ah yes, the classic NameTags and Healtbar. You old folks know how useful it was in a fight.
Dark Chat and Pride Chat
Maybe you are bored of the classic black and white bubble, be cool and not burn your eyes with dark-mode chat!
Monthly Kills Leaderboard
Do you want your own statue? You came to the right place, every month the Top 3 Players with most kills will have their own statue. The monthly kills will be reset so new players have the chance to claim their own statue! Don’t worry, your total kills will be saved!
Perks for being one of the Top 3:
- 1 Month VIP
- 1 Month Rainbow Trails
