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...
  • New weapons - Ultimatum, Ultimatum Mk. II, Flamethrower, DP-28, Type-97
  • Attachment remodels - All attachments visually overhauled

[hr]

ARMOR & PROGRESSION

  • Proper clothing tiers - Clothing sizes reworked. Actual progression from civilian → military → special forces
  • Hazmat progression - Yellow Hazmat → Biohazard suit (reworked) → Military Hazmat
  • New Juggernaut Armor - Heavy armor with tradeoffs
  • New backpacks - Spec Ops Megapack and Freighterpack (Airdrop only)

[hr]

STRUCTURES & RAIDING

  • Building HP increased significantly - Raiding is an investment. Focus on doors, not walls.
  • Wooden items breakable by anything - But now locked by default
  • New structures - Offset doorways, reinforced metal progression
  • Sentry overhaul - New heavy sentry + autocannon (infinite ammo base defense). Based on More Sentry Mod (fixed/updated)
  • Raid balance - Weapons deal less damage to buildings.
  • Currently Raiding Weapons - Nykorev, Fury, Dragonfang, DP-28, Timberwolf, Grizzly, Ekho, Type-97, Rocket Launcher, Ultimatum, Ultimatum Mk. II (Quest), Railgun (Quest), Railgun Mk. II (Quest)
  • No craftable rockets - No more rocket spam
  • Buffed Aidrop - Now with just a pack of Raiding supplies, Filters, hazmats, etc...

[hr]

MAP - RUSSIA REFINED

Entirely new points of interest with progression:

  • Deadzones - Most deadzones now requires full hazmat gear
  • Hazmat Progression: Volk → Silo → Scorpion → Oil Rig → Alpha Bunker
  • New Deadzone: Alpha Bunker - Requires raiding gear to breach bunker doors. Endgame.
  • New Scorpion-7 Deadzone - Full hazmat required
  • Fallen UFO crash site - New location with alien content
  • Openable map crates (like Polaris) - Loot feels rewarding
  • Extraction points - Boats to Liberator (NPC-operated, similar to Unturnov/Polaris)

[hr]

ECONOMY, NPCS & STORYLINE

  • All Russia NPCs reworked - Actually useful now. Better shops, better quest rewards (more XP)
  • Black Market economy - Money notes finally have value
  • Black Market NPC's - Each one have a respective role. Raiding weapons, Military weapons, building supplies, hunting, and a berry lover! (They only appear at Night!)
  • Main storyline rework - Now focus on an Alien that came to the earth with the Turned cure. Find Alien items, Sandevistans, reworked Railguns, reworked Mk. II, and more!
  • XP Books! - Based on Books Mod (updated/fixed)

[hr]

QUALITY OF LIFE

  • Better item descriptions for everything
  • Raiding is better displayed now in item descriptions (Raid Weapons, Can only be damage by Raid Weapons, etc...)
  • Colorful Nightvisions - Fixed/updated
  • Advanced Animal - Fixed/updated, based on Advanced Animal
  • Railgun remodels - Based on Double Trouble
  • Railguns can now also be unlocked by quests - It's now possible to refill Mk. II with normal Rails
  • Multiple other changes - Hundreds of other changes not mentioned here, like GPS now also displays compass, item stacks can be picked up by anyone, etc... Check it out!
