Title: [PTS] Test Server Update - June 05, 2020
Post by: PSNews on 05/06/2020, 19:15

PTS will be updated with the following changes later today.

Test Server installation can be found here: http://launch.daybreakgames.com/installer/PS2_Test_setup.exe

Colossus Tank

Skylance (Deployed) Mode

• Projectile is now wider and faster, making it easier to hit targets.
• Skylance direct damage increased to allow for one-shotting of non-composite ESF.
• Elevation ranges in deployed mode have been loosened up.
• Reduced knockback effect on aircraft.
• Bombardment Shield can now be damaged by common explosives (resist type 6.)

Mass Accelerator Drive (MAD)

• Cooldown timer no longer stops updating when it deactivates.
• Now immediately consumes the intended amount of Cortium, instead of draining it over time.
• Fixed tooltip to correct reflect its damage increase.

Top Gun Adjustments

• Gecko turret elevation range has been increased to allow for better defense from aircraft.
• Dingo damage from 75 to 100.

Ammo Capacities

We've taken a pass on the ammo capacities of each weapon.

• Mammoth Cannon ammo capacity from 25 to 50.
• Mammoth Cannon ammo resupply per tick from 6 to 5.
• Gecko ammo capacity from 450 to 750.
• Goblin ammo capacity from 375 to 750.
• Pug ammo capacity from 42 to 60.
• Dingo ammo capacity from 78 to 120.
• Fang ammo capacity from 40 to 60.

Colossus Misc.

• Mammoth Cannon should now "wobble" less.
• Fixed various issues with colossus cameras and clipping into the tank.
• Fixed missing cannon movement audio when more than 15 meters away.
• Colossus first-person HUD overlay now shows turret orientation, like other tanks.
• Colossus reticle now updates properly when switching between deployed and non-deployed modes.
• Colossus starting Cortium is now a flat amount, instead of regenerating over time.
• Colossus certification screen now shows proper amount and type of currency (Merit).
• Base resistance to Orbital Strikes has been increased, allowing it to survive with enough health. Fallout Hardening increases this bonus even further.
• We will be looking to increase the Colossus' mobility in a later update.

Bastion Fleet Carrier

Weakpoint resistance values have been changed to increase damage from more sources.

• Resist type 5 (light anti-vehicle) from -100 to -150.
• Resist type 7 (tank cannon) from -25 to -200.
• Resist type 23 (air to ground warhead) from 0 to -25.

NS-66 Punisher (Common Pool SMG)

• Default Fragmentation Underbarrel ammo capacity from 2 to 3.
• Havoc debuff audio has been updated.
• Extended Magazines no longer affects Punisher's underbarrel.

Rocklet Rifle (Light Assault Tool)

• Locklets have been replaced with Sabot Rocklets.
• Sabot Rocklets sacrifice damage for increased accuracy at range. When equipped, alternate fire is replaced with a low-bloom 3-round burst, and projectile velocity is increased for both firemodes.

Dev Note: We've said this in the past, but reload speed increases should no longer affect the Rocklet Rifle in unintended ways (ie. hyper reload speeds.) A consequence of this fix was that Typhoon Rocklet implementation had to be reworked (though players should see no gameplay impact,) and Locklets had to be replaced as an option.

Facility Modules (War Asset system)

• We've fixed a bugged state that would prevent you from placing Facility Modules from the map screen.
• Facility Modules are now sorted alphabetically.
• Due to the feedback surrounding the Advanced Vehicle Access module, we will be removing it and, as a baseline, allow MBT/Liberator be pullable from Large Outposts and Facilities.

Misc. Changes, Fixes, and Additions

• Players who are BR5 and lower can no longer be invited to an outfit, but can still apply to one.
• Fixed an issue where the Base Capture HUD could go missing.
• Fixed an issue preventing players without Outfits to show their base capture score.
• Players can no longer drive through the structure holding up the Construction Gate Shield.
• Thumper SE directive naming scheme now consistent with other weapons.
• Renamed Maelstrom Turbo Laser to “V26 Maelstrom Turbo Laser”
• Updated names of Relic Sites on Desolation.
