PC SETTINGS

Audio

PC users will have an audio update allowing Players to select stereo or surround outputs. This option will default to stereo if not set. We have been investigating clips which appear to only include the front left and right channels, when the output on some PCs may default to surround - resulting in missing channels of audio.

ACCESSIBILITY

Inverted Flash

An "Inverted Flash" option has been added as an accessibility option in the Interface category for Season 02 Reloaded with two values: Off (default behavior) and On (added behavior). This option allows to change the color of the flash effect of the flashbang tactical grenade from white to black. We recommend adjusting this option for Players who feel discomfort when affected by the full white screen effect of the flashbang tactical grenade. Duration and visual are at parity between the two values of the option, providing no competitive advantage.

GAMEPLAY

General

• Pacing Balancing
  • As a team we are focused on two core areas of the pacing of Battle Royale:
    • The combat engagements in the mid-game
    • The regain opportunities in the late game
  • We will be addressing this across Season 02 Reloaded and going into Season 03, with the first change being a guaranteed “Restock” Public Event in the 4th Circle.
  • Future improvements will include:
    • More ground loot Supply Boxes, especially in the North of the map
    • Resurgence Supply Boxes being sprinkled throughout the map
    • Additional Ammo Caches
    • And more…

Gameplay Adjustments

Al Mazrah | Battle Royale

• Light Helo
  • The Light Helo has been disabled in Solos. We are protective of the Solos squad size being a fair and balanced experience, and the Light Helo went against that ethos.

• Contract Availability
  • Increased the number of Contracts revealed over the course of the match to increase their availability in later circles.

• Final Circles In-Season
  • We are temporarily disabling final circles in the north-western section of the map while we work on improvements for upcoming seasons.

Ashika Island | Resurgence

• Redeployment Drones
  • Redeployment Drones are currently active across Ashika Island and will remain live as part of the Resurgence experience.

• AI Combatant Departure
  • As the Path of the Ronin event comes to an end, the Shadow Company operatives that have occupied the island will depart in pursuit of their next mission.
  • Players will now be public enemy number one for Search & Seizure Contracts and the Data Heist Public Event.

• Circle Balancing
  • The first circle will be approximately 20% larger, and more likely to be on land, to better enable a successful Infil.

• Pacing Balancing
  • Actions that affect the Resurgence Countdown have been adjusted to allow for more windows of opportunity to Team Wipe the opposing team.

• Buy Station Availability
  • Improvements have been made to better spread the Buy Stations more evenly through the map.

BUG FIXES

Amended Bug Fixes at 11:30 AM PT on March 15th

DMZ

GAMEPLAY

• DMZ Combat Record
  • DMZ Combat Records will launch with Season 02 Reloaded but will not aggregate previous game history. Complete 5 matches to unlock!

• We have updated the usage requirements for Building 21 Access Cards: 
  • Players no longer need to bring Building 21 Access Cards into the match by equipping them prior to infiltration
  • At least one Player in a squad must  have a Building 21 Access Card in their Inventory to allow infiltration
  • If a Player does infil to Building 21 with an Access Card in their Backpack, they will lose that card if they do not extract with it
  • This change only impacts Building 21 Access Cards and not the Access/Key  Cards for locked spaces inside Building 21, as those must still be equipped in your Backpack prior to infiltration

• Enemy combatants in DMZ can now operate or arrive in a variety of vehicles, not just the Armored Truck

• We have added some variations to infiltration and exfiltration points

• Fixed Favor for a Friend Mission having an incorrect location description
• Fixed description for Stronghold Reacquisition Mission incorrectly stating that the Legion Deal Intel must be extracted

• Fixed issue where the Overlord voiceover would fade out improperly when extracting
• Fixed issues where certain Missions weren't sharing progress with squadmates, including missions that have you use field upgrades and killstreaks such as Death From Above
• Fixed issue where Key Elimination wasn't giving progress for unlocking a cache instead of a locked door
• Fixed an issue where some Players did not get credit for the final exfil due to timer
