Live Game Update - April 19th

Live servers will be coming down for an update starting at 2PM PT tomorrow (about 19 hours from now) for an estimated 3 hours. Here's what's included in this patch:

General Updates

  • There is now a gameplay option to show the map by default when entering Fort Destiny.
  • Kill Receipts are now shown when in Team Spectate.
  • Reduced match countdown timer from 60 seconds to 35 seconds.
  • Optimized particle effect textures for a minor performance gain for mid to low end GPUs.
  • Optimized how the client retrieves group member information from Steam for a minor performance gain.

Bug Fixes

  • Players can no longer bypass ping restrictions by grouping.
  • Weapons no longer occasionally appear to animate vertically when crouching and aiming down sights.
  • Level 100 celebration emote is no longer spammable, which was causing performance issues.
  • Fixed a material in certain houses that could muffle footstep volume.
  • Player indicators are now above the toxic gas on the mini-map, making them less difficult to see.
