[PTS] Jan. 12th, 2019 - PTS Update

[PSNews]

More stuff coming to PTS soon, but here's some changes to take a look at right away. Currently there is a bug preventing creation of new NS characters that should be fixed in our next update.

Server Side Changes

• Zone Performance Improvements
• Zone Stability Improvements

UI

• Numeric Vehicle Health Display Option
• Drawing more attention to the alert icon whenever you close the map.
• Right clicking on the vehicle quick-spawn on the redeploy screen should remove your selection.

Vehicle Balance

VLG (Valkyrie)

Speed 25 -> 50

Max Speed 125 -> 150

Reload Speed 2000 -> 1500

Lockon Acceleration .25 -> 2

Lifespan 5 -> 3.5

Lockon Lifespan 4.5 -> 3.4

Hellion (Valkyrie)

Ammo 50 -> 60

Max Damage 167 -> 200

Min Damage 125 -> 143

Dev Note: The VLG may be a bit overtuned. We'll be keeping this on test until we do some actual playtests for NSO. At this point, we can review how powerful it is, and potentially pull it back some.

Bug Fixes

• Symbiote implant cancels Join Combat.
• On Large Outpost Capture alert, cut off Outposts will no longer count towards score.
• General NSO fixes, and content additions.
