The official patch notes for the console versions aren’t available just yet, but once we know the exact details, we’ll be sure to update the post. In the meantime, here’s what players can expect from the 16.2 patch:

Tactical Pack

Update 16.2 kicks off with a new Tactical Gear, the Tactical Pack! Store almost any type of item and come up with all kinds of wacky play styles with this super backpack; turn into a missile silo with four Panzerfausts, or carry two extra sets of vests and helmets for emergencies, or dominate every combat range with an SMG, AR, and DMR combo! Or even better yet, why not carry four Mountain Bikes (because you can) so you and your squad would never need a vehicle again?

Spotter Scope

And we’re bringing in another! Meet the new mid-range scouting Tactical Gear, the Spotter Scope! This special set of binoculars will help you spy and mark your enemies and enemy Drones while also allowing non-verbal communication with your squad!

Tactical Gear: Drone

The consistent color of the lights deployed Drones emit seemed to confuse many of our players, so we’ve changed the lights’ colors to the following:

• Deployed Ally Drone: Green lights
• Deployed Enemy Drone: Red lights

And loads more! For the full 16.2 patch notes, head on over here.

Once we know the official patch notes for today’s update for consoles, we’ll update the post.

Update: Post has been updated!
