October update: AC-130, infantry, and merits

What the October 16 update adds

The Roblox experience shows an October 16, 2026 update stamp and an Infantry Update event labeled beta, with the line Boots on the ground. The owner post on the fresh green beans group describes the same batch:

  • AC-130 gunship. The developer says it will need more polish.
  • Ground vehicles, called a small proof of concept.
  • Infantry mode in beta. The developer calls it underwhelming and weak for now, because the player is not made of steel.
  • A free VTOL variant for the jet. The stated trade is less maneuverability for slightly less firepower.
  • A Warbond track inspired by Helldivers 2. Merits are earned through wars.
  • Code AC130 for a gift. Contents are not itemized.
  • More, without a full list.

The same post says there was not time for a real balance pass on older weapons and prices, and that new pieces may be too weak, too strong, or too grindy. Tuning is promised later. The developer is also hiring after building the game solo.

What the description still says

The experience text still tells you to enter 1MIL, 2MIL, and TYFORPLAYING for free gifts, to join the group for +10% XP and Credits, to invite friends for a free XP and Credits buff, and to play on weekends for an x2 buff. The core loop is unchanged in that text: rockets, chain gun fire, air strikes, dropped defenses, Behemoths, Credits, 180+ upgrades, and a frontline pushed through seasons.

What to re-check in game

  1. Redeem AC130 once, then the three codes named in the description, using the redeem guide.
  2. Open the flight line and see whether the AC-130 and the free VTOL jet are selectable beside the Apache, Little Bird, and Grimhawk.
  3. Read one old chain-gun price before you spend a stockpile. The developer said those numbers were not retuned.
  4. Try infantry only as a side look. The author of the mode says it is weak.
  5. If a Warbond or merit counter is visible, write down the price of one rank before you assume a war pays for it. No public table exists yet.

Older footage of three aircraft and the named defense list is still the best picture of the air-support loop. It is not a promise that the new gunship uses the same slots.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Zombie Air Force still in Alpha?

Yes. The experience description still says Alpha and tells players to expect bugs and imperfection. The developer, kobra, has also said the newest infantry, vehicles, and gunship work is early and may be too weak, too strong, or too grindy.

How many players are in one server?

The Roblox listing shows a server size of 10. It is a co-op PvE shooter: aircraft, dropped defenses, and allied ground pressure against zombie hordes and giant Behemoths.

Which codes does the developer currently name?

The current description names 1MIL, 2MIL, and TYFORPLAYING as free gifts in the Store. A developer group post adds AC130 for a gift and does not list the contents. Older codes such as LITTLEBIRD, THANKYOU, and FREE12 are still reported by some October 16 lists, but the live description no longer names them. SORRY, GEMDROP, and RELEASE have expiry reports.

Where are official announcements posted?

Join the fresh green beans Roblox group. The listing says members get +10% XP and Credits. A public write-up of the codes page says there is no separate Discord or Trello to follow, and no working invite for either was confirmed for this game.

What are Credits, Medals, merits, and Honors for?

Credits buy aircraft, weapon, and defense upgrades. The developer says there are more than 180 upgrades. Medals show up in reported code rewards and on the Bounty Board. The October update adds merits earned through wars for a Warbond-style track. Honors is named only as something the Grimhawk access description says you do not need.
