Unturned Refined - Russia Refined
A complete overhaul of the Russia map and core gameplay. [hr]

OVERVIEW
This isn't just another Russia edit. Every system has been reworked with actual progression in mind. No more useless items, NPCs, or whateaver. Everything aims to have a purpose.
Doing what no one's ever dared: A total vanilla overhaul – directly editing EVERY core vanilla item, for a more balanced and funnier Unturned experience.
This mod was developed and continuously balanced over a full year of live server operation on an active, community-driven Unturned server. Managed by me (Jesus Is King), with direct input, feedback, testing, and thousands of hours of real gameplay from a community of over 3,000 players. Every change — from damage values to POI placement — was refined through actual player reports, suggestions, and endless iterations.

COMBAT & WEAPONS

- Complete damage overhaul - Guns deal ~2x damage to players. TTK is lower, positioning matters more.
- Useless guns fixed - Fusilaut, Eaglefire, Swissgewehr now have auto fire. Heartbreaker damage increased. Every gun is viable.
- Heavy weapons actually heavy - Nykorev/Fury raid again (1-shot per bullet, not shotguns). LMGs/Marksman rifles 2-shot kill, snipers 1-shot headshot.
- Melee matters - Axes/sledgehammers deal more damage than knives. Any melee or pistol can be hotkeyed (3,4,5 slots). Blunt vs blade balance.
- Real gun names - C7A2 "Maplestrike", etc. Full weapon remodels for: Deagle, Viper, Calling Card, Peacemaker, Scalar, Empire, Maschinegwehr, Yuri, PDW, Bulldog.
- Full weapon remodels - Deagle, Viper, Calling Card, Peacemaker, Scalar, Empire, Maschinegwehr, Yuri, PDW, Bulldog. More coming soon...

Entirely new points of interest with progression:
