All PC servers will be taken offline for an update at 6 AM PT on Thursday, June 28th, 2018.
Downtime is expected to last up to 2 hours.
Warpgate instability became a disruptive element in the war on Auraxis. In an attempt to circumvent the blackouts, operatives scour less occupied land masses to wrest control of forgotten technology.
Independence Day - July 4 through July 8
We'll be holding Independence Day festivities starting the 4th of July and running through the 8th of July.
ALL players will receive DOUBLE EXPERIENCE during the event; Infantry Gear will be discounted by 40%; and special time-limited event items will be available in the Depot.
You'll also find the FREEDOM THRUSTERS available in your Light Assault infantry loadouts. These jump jets are max rank Skirmishers with a patriotic twist.
For New Conglomerate characters only, a stylish Independence Day variant of the Nomad Light Assault armor will also be available in the Depot.

Summer Event - July 4 through August 31
Starting the 4th of July and running through August 31st, we'll also be kicking off a summer event, complete with a new directive line, rewards, and complementary weapons to tame the Indar heat.
Check your secondary weapon slot to find the new Soldier Soaker pistol, able to pelt enemies with a blast of water.
Water Balloons can also be found in the Grenade Slot. These balloons detonate on impact, and deal moderate damage.
Both the Soldier Soaker and Water Balloon kills contribute to the a new Summer directive, and these items will disappear from players' loadouts when the event ends.

Flash Empire Specific Weaponry
We've introduced three new Flash Weapons as summer event rewards. These items will go into the Depot later in the year, but for now you can unlock them early and without a cert price.

V30-F Starfall (Vanu Sovereignty)
The Starfall fires a quick 3 round plasma barrage, meant to strike at unsuspecting vehicles with lighting speed. VS use only.
M4-F Pillager (Terran Republic)
The Pillager lays down a field of flames which ignite infantry caught within. TR use only.
Tier 4 (Auraxium) Reward
Auraxium Water Balloon Hood Ornament
