Hey folks! This patch optimizes the game some more, introduces a new weapon, and improves ultrawide monitor support, such as 21:9 and 28:9. The new weapon - Remington Model 700 - is a bolt-action rifle. It has a five round magazine, is slow to fire, and ammo for it is very difficult to find, however that is made up by it's near-perfect accuracy, high damage output, and low weight - it won't slo…

Intravenous 2 is a game about improvisation, playing your way and making the most of what you've got - that was the design philosophy of the first game, and it's still the case in the second. But it is also, above all, a stealth game. Now you see me, now you don't Stealth in Intravenous 2 is multifaceted. Your HUD shows your light level and the amount of noise you're making. When you're in a da…

Hey folks! This patch implements several improvements back-ported from Intravenous 2, which I believe improve the overall feel of the game, but do not impact the overall game design of Intravenous 1, and fixes several issues, one of which is an oversight in the enemy's suppressive fire logic, where they would not lay down suppressive fire if there was a dead/unconscious body between them and th…
Hey folks! This patch focuses on fixing one nasty problem with doors, which is the infamous "door bash did nothing to goons behind it" bug which occured every now and then... and resulted in unexpected deaths.

Hey folks! This patch fixes two minor issues. Version 1.4.0.1: - dead/unconscious enemy bodies will now be ignored if at least one enemy NPC is in combat, to reduce unintended enemy body pickups mid-combat, when your intention was to grab a weapon instead - this can be disabled in the game options in the "Controls" options tab - fixed Saiga-12K having the AK-103's minimum damage value, which me…
Hey folks! This update brings several improvements, features and bugfixes ported from Intravenous 2. While working on Intravenous 2 I couldn't help but think to myself "this is such a good improvement, I should backport it to the first game" - which is exactly the point of this update. Most of the new things in this update are things that I believe don't affect the gameplay design of Intravenou…
Hey folks! This BETA further slightly optimizes the lighting rendering and fixes a bug which caused the 'high contrast rendering' graphical option setting to not save in the user file, which lead to it being reset on each game start. Version 1.4.0 BETA 7: - further small optimizations to lighting rendering - uses slightly less video memory and provides a tiny boost to performance - fixed high c…
