The new mode for Hood is even more reminiscent of Assassin’s -apkrig

The multiplayer PvPvE action Hood: Outlaws & Legends has been given a new mode. According to the authors, the State Heist mode is more focused on stealth, but it somewhat denies the original idea, because it is a PvE mode. The news from the developers from the Sumo Digital studio came into play through a free update and promises even tougher opposition in the form of corrupt state power.

Although normally Hood will face two competing teams of live players who seek the same treasure, in this case the second group of players is missing. Players’ developers are attracted to new mechanisms, a greater emphasis on sneaking and cooperation between characters. Unlike the default mode, players also have limited respawny. It is possible to revive each other, but if all members of the team die, it’s over.

Thanks to automatic loading, all players can join the defense at once.

According to the authors, in order to be successful, they must be more careful and methodical. And enemies controlled by artificial intelligence should do better. We have limited resources and time. There are also different finals with treasure extraction, where soldiers actively attack your group, try to thwart your robbery and all players can join the defense at once thanks to automatic loading. As a result, the whole thing is even more reminiscent of the cooperation from Assassin’s Creed Unity. Paradoxically, this could be exactly what the game needs.

The new mode is accompanied by a special event called Survive the State. Players who earn a treasure chest without losing a life will be rewarded with a new Shadow Lords costume for the character they played for. Gradually, you can get them all. The rewards will be unlocked on August 2, when the event ends.

Hood needs more content like salt

Otherwise, Sumo Digital assures us that Hood is still in its infancy, and the authors have been actively working on improvements based on player feedback since its release. According to the team, the title has already received several important updates and other free and paid content will follow. Fans can look forward to a brand new character and lots of cosmetics. Some time ago, we paid close attention to the planned content.

But the question is whether that will be enough. In terms of speed and breadth of the promised content. Hood would need innovations like salt and, above all, to expand the portfolio of regimes with other much more significant variations on the same theme. It is worth recalling that the basic game entered the market with a single, albeit interesting, mode, which also proved very difficult to balance.
