4 November 2026 · official · economy and land
Kefir’s “First Changes & Server Schedule” announcement changes Tier 1 settlement and plot costs from cash to documents. Base businesses, including farms, laboratories and contraband operations, earn more. Dumpsters contain more cash. Dismantling and selling shipments pays more, but shipments drop less often and dismantling takes longer. That combination is not enough to calculate an hourly profit without a timed test.
Some Tier 2 and Tier 3 settlement items cost more to unlock and buy. The laundering desk holds more cash. Decoder, gold-bar and other item stacks are larger. These are directional changes in the supplied notes; we do not invent before-and-after figures where the announcement excerpt does not provide them. Read the original official post for the developer’s wording before using an older economy guide.
4 November 2026 · official · cops and starter weapons
The patch increases cop respawn time, with further delay after consecutive deaths. Cops can buy police badges, and the selection depends on the home district. Fewer badges come from loot and salary. Patrol cops on a fresh server start with pistols, while better equipment becomes available as the world ages. The source file does not specify a complete unlock timetable.
The earlier November 1 playtest plan for a free pistol on each respawn was reversed. Instead, the basic pistol became cheaper and starter-weapon spawn points increased. That reversal is important when checking guide dates: an accurate description of the playtest can be wrong for the Early Access launch. We do not call the earlier statement a current benefit or promise new players a free gun.
4 November 2026 · official · items and fresh worlds
The Buletti vehicle can no longer carry shipments. The Fabergé Egg cracks faster, and trading for a glass cutter requires more tablets. These are specific item changes, not a full vehicle or heist-item database. The Buletti is the only confirmed vehicle name in the research; we do not build a supposed complete car list from a concept-art post or an unnamed player’s expensive-car anecdote.
The announced regions were EU and East US. At least one fresh server would open daily in each region, EU at 17:00 UTC and East US at 20:00 ET, with additional worlds opening automatically as needed. These are fresh-world opening times rather than a verified universal wipe clock. The separate wipe guide explains the seven-day cycle and the missing per-world reset timestamps.
5–7 November 2026 · secondary and incident reports
nowgame.eu’s November 6 report, updated November 7, describes higher police salaries, a four-cop city cap, economy balancing and party fixes. The police-cap number was not found in the official Steam news feed and remains unverified. We do not give this account the same confidence as Kefir’s November 4 announcement or present it as a fully authenticated November 5 changelog.
Wikily labels its map data as matching a November 6 update, but the task research did not locate corresponding official patch contents. A data label is not enough to reconstruct a changelog. Separately, the pinned developer discussion acknowledges launch-week DDoS attacks causing connection errors and lag. That incident report is not a current all-clear and is not evidence of a new balance patch.
9 November 2026 · editorial review and what happens next
This page is a dated editorial summary of the supplied research, not an automatic mirror of every Steam or Discord post. It does not claim there were no newer changes anywhere; it states which changes our evidence supports. The current website does not poll live servers, calculate uptime or infer a patch from a changed player count.
A local daily-update script collects Steam news and discussion-title material into a draft file. It has no scheduler and does not publish its output. A reviewer must distinguish official announcements from forum titles, verify dates and sources, and update the relevant guide before release. This keeps an unreviewed rumor or a troubleshooting question from silently becoming a published patch note. Sources below show the confidence boundary for the present summary.
