Patch 1.3.0 Released - Vicky

[Home]

Hello everyone,

Patch 1.3.0 codename “Vicky” just went live on Steam. It contains one highly anticipated new feature and a bunch of smaller fixes.

Highlight

Bobby Ray’s Guns and Things is now able to process orders to the country of Grand Chien. Customers can now access www.bobbyraysgunsandthings.net online store through their PDA browser. There you can check out our wide selection of “guns and things” that you can order and get delivered to certain locations in the Adjani Valley. 

• Within couple of days of capturing Ernie Village (or continuing an existing campaign), our amazing store will be at your disposal.
• We offer a top of the line selection of new and used items including weapons, armor, ammo, etc. and restock regularly.  
• Act now as others might want the item you’ve set your eyes upon! What's here today might vanish tomorrow.
• The brave delivery guys and gals of Bobby Rays can deliver your order to any port on the western coast of the Adjani valley that you secure. Opt for the premium option, and we’ll expedite the process.
• No IOUs! We take the money upfront THEN load up the gear.
• We don’t accept orders to unsafe destinations. You pay us to deliver, not fight
