They now have a glint on them, reduced recoil control, and adjusted ADS time. Variable Scopes (3-6 & 4-8) have been adjusted significantly.We've made a large amount of changes to these Weapons and expect to make some more following Season Five launch so that these Weapons are viable, but we don't see a repeat of the DMR 14 (BOCW) meta. Vanguard Marksman Rifles now have Assault Rifle Ammunition.Season Five is all about widening options even further by addressing the top performers to be more in-line, along with lifting up both individual Weapons and classes of Weapons that are under-utilized.

Some Players may wonder why this change is happening now, to which our reply is that there may be a surprise in-store during Season Five that warrants this change. We felt we could bring more value to Battle Hardened, especially as it is now present as a lootable ground Perk, with our target for the effects of Stun and Flash to be mitigated to less than a second with the Perk equipped.

Added a setting that allows the Loadout interface to remember the last Loadout that was selected.ĭuring Season Four we made a change to optimize the Loadout interface so that the cursor selection starts at the top of the list.Speaking of knowing how important muscle memory is… Loadout Drop Markers remain at the bottom of the list for ease of access because we know how important muscle memory is….The Buy Station inventory will now scroll in order to display all available options.The new Supply Box UAV Killstreak has been added to the Buy Station inventory.We have made many targeted Quality of Life improvements to the auto Gas Mask behavior over the course of this year, and with it being in a much better place for all of our Players - now is the time to take the next step to give Players more agency and control over their experience with a Manual Equip setting. Note: This option is only available if the user opts into the manual Gas Mask toggle in the Settings Menu.Added functionality to the Quick Inventory Menu to allow the user to toggle the Gas Mask on/off.We felt that C4 and ground loot Perks were too similar in appearance and presentation, so we’ve updated C4 to make it more distinguishable visually when compared to a vertically standing ground loot Perk satchel. Note that Precision Airstrikes will continue to shoot through glass, balconies and wall-bang penetrable buildings. As such our engineering team have completed a detailed review of the system to make sure it is working as intended and as a result have made some changes to further improve and optimize the system. In the absence of any recent changes to the Precision Airstrike behavior, we’ve still seen an uptick in Player sentiment and discussion around Precision Airstrikes lately. Added a danger UI notification if the Player calling in a Cluster Strike or Precision Airstrike is too close to the targeted site.This would occur in rare situations where a Player is positioned considerably higher above the target when launching the strike.Implemented a fix for Precision Airstrikes sometimes not hitting near the targeted site - instead hitting the Player from behind unexpectedly.Improved the Precision Airstrike danger UI notification to be more consistent with where the Airstrike target is and any nearby enemies.
