Battle Royale Adjustments
At the start of Season Two Reloaded, we talked about our intent to merge the core and Vanguard Royale experiences into a single, coherent Mode. We’ve now arrived at the final step of the merger, with Vanguard Royale Public Events joining the core BR event pool.
- Public Events
- Added:
- Restock
- Cash Drops
- Heavy Weapon Drops
- Resurgence
- Added:
- Loadout Drop Events:
- First free Loadout Drop now occurs earlier
- This change should make for better parity in the power curve.
- This change should make for better parity in the power curve.
- Second free Loadout Drop remains in the 5th Circle
- First free Loadout Drop now occurs earlier
- Guaranteed Events:
- Infil:
- Heavy Weapon Crate
- Plunder Crate
Being incentivised to landing in different locations due to Legendary loot appearing in the early game is a good opportunity for POI rotation.
- 4th Circle:
- Restock
- Fire Sale
Having mid-game events help players restock their inventory and give players improved looting opportunities in the mid-to-late game, especially if returning from the Gulag.
- Infil:
As a reminder, here are some of the other changes that were implemented to core BR over the previous weeks:
- Gameplay
- Default core health is now at 150 (up from 100)
- Loot
- Dead Silence will remain as Legendary ground loot
- Contracts
- “Big Game Bounty”
- “Top Secret”
- “Supply Drop”
We’re excited to see this initiative come to fruition and look forward to monitoring your continued feedback. Time to drop in!
BUG FIXES:
- Fixed collision issues with various elements across Caldera allowing Players to exploit/peek/shoot through them.
- Fixed an issue where the Restock and Quick Fix Perk descriptions did not match their current functionality.
- Fixed an issue where some Keyboard and Mouse button prompts could be seen when using a Gamepad.
- Fixed an issue where the button prompt when receiving a Playlist Update would incorrectly say “Exit” instead of “Restart Now”
- Fixed an issue where Players could not invite other Players to join their party from the “Invite From Social” menu.
