As usual these notes were posted in the Closed Beta Event 3 News section but I still wanted to call out specific things here for your convenience. We did push a small patch out this afternoon as there were a few things we wanted to address sooner rather than later.
1. We added Australia to the matchmaking regions!
2. We had an issue in the Staging area where some players were getting stuck on a syncing message. That wasn't fun for anyone so we fixed that.
3. The Bruiser was having an issue with its Damage Absorb ability and it's back to working normally.
4. We wanted to do some weapon changes too. The Sharpshooter was nerfed a bit too much so we balanced it out. It's not exactly how it was in CBT2, but much closer and much more consistent. I think Sharpshooter fans will feel it's MUCH better (that includes me) and more balanced. Also, I'm sure you fans of the Vulcan will be happy to see we reduced heat generation; it was kicking up a bit too much for it to be useful and satisfying to use. Here's the list:
Sabot Rifle
- Increased Unzoomed Accuracy
- Decreased Zoom Distance
- Increased Rate of Fire
Slug Rifle
- Increased Accuracy
- Decreased Rate of Fire
- Increased Damage Slightly
Point D Vulcan
- Reduced Heat Generation
SA Hawkins
- Increased Rate of Fire Slightly
- Decreased Damage Slightly
Keep letting us know about your experiences, we want to know. Thanks everyone and have fun out there.
