ROB RUN: First Changes & Server Schedule

We've received a ton of feedback during the playtest. Thanks to everyone who's shared their thoughts, reported issues, and suggested ideas! You're helping us make ROB RUN better.

It'll take some time to go through everything, but we've already made a few changes, and we want to see how they play out.

What's Changed

Cops

  • Increased cop respawn time, adding an even longer delay with each consecutive death.

  • Cops can now buy police badges. The selection depends on the district they live in. At the same time, we've significantly reduced the number of badges earned through looting and cop salaries.

  • When a fresh server opens, patrol cops will only have access to pistols. Better gear will unlock as the server gets older.

Economy & Progression

  • Tier 1 settlements and land rentals now cost documents instead of cash. This should make early-game progression and resource management easier to figure out.

  • Massively increased profits from base businesses, including farms, labs, contraband, and more.

  • Increased the amount of cash found in dumpsters.

  • Made dismantling and selling shipments much more profitable, but reduced their drop rates and increased the duration of dismantling.

  • Increased the unlock and purchase costs of certain items in Tier 2 and Tier 3 settlements.

  • Reduced the price of the basic pistol and added more starter weapon spawn points around the city.

We initially considered giving players a pistol after every death, but we feel that working your way up from nothing is an important part of ROB RUN and leads to some great gameplay stories.

Instead, we've made weapons easier to find, while limiting cops' starting gear to give everyone a fairer shot early on.

Items & Other Changes

  • The Buletti can no longer transport shipments.

  • We’ve reduced the time needed to crack the Fabergé Egg, but increased the number of tablets required to trade for a glass cutter.

  • We’ve massively increased the amount of cash the laundering desk can hold.

  • We’ve increased the maximum stack size for decoders, gold bars, and several other items.

  • We’ve made plenty of other technical and gameplay adjustments.

None of these changes are set in stone. We'll keep an eye on how they affect gameplay and make further adjustments if needed.

New Server Schedule

ROB RUN currently has two regions: EU and East US. We'll add more regions when we can.

We plan to open at least one fresh server per day in each region:

  • EU — 5 PM UTC

  • East US — 8 PM ET

Additional servers will open automatically as needed, including outside these scheduled times. We'll monitor server load and adjust things if necessary.

Thanks for playing ROB RUN and helping us make it better!
