We are excited to announce that an early iteration of the 1.3 update has come to our Community Test Branch. Servers will be up all weekend, starting from Thursday, March 7th at 9 PM EST (-5 GMT). We hope to see you all there!
Here’s an overview of what you can expect from the CTB this week:
Additions since previous 1.3 CTB:
- New weapon: RP-46
Available to PAVN machine gunners, this newly-added Light Machine Gun, (7.62x54mm), the Russian RP-46 Degtyaryov Machine Gun is the final evolution of the series that began life as the DP-26.
This version was adopted in 1946 and is essentially a WW2 era DP-28 with the addition of a belt feed and heavier barrel for longer sustained firing time.
- MAS-49 Grenade Launcher and Model Changes
You spoke and we listened! Following feedback from the previous round of Community Testing, we have made the following changes to the MAS-49:
- The pitch limitations, when deployed, have been reworked to make the MAS-49 GL more user friendly to aim
- The rifle grenade blast radius has been increased by approx 2 metres
- The grenade loading animation has been slightly sped up
- The iron sights on all variants of the MAS-49 have been modified to make the outer ring thinner and increase the aperture, improving visibility when aiming down sights
