EXTRACTION PRE-ALPHA

• Increased the number of max teams from 4 to 6 and total players from 12 to 18

• Consolidated all ammo types into 4 types: compact, rifle, heavy, and shotgun

• Added 6 tiers of ammo — these ammo tiers do not change their base damage, but instead change their penetration in relation to the new shields

• Added 6 tiers of shields. The shield is projected around your entire body from a small device on your right shoulder (the model is placeholder for now). Bullets can still penetrate the shield, depending on how high a tier of bullet vs the tier of shield.
