New Directive LineIt's time for a new Exceptional directive, complete with a Brilliant new camouflage usable on weapons, armor, and vehicles alike.
Every weapon from this year's bundles will go into the Exceptional III directive, and future holiday weapons are planned to be a part of it as well!

New World Map ScreenWe've made some big changes to the World Map screen that allow us to more easily relay information and get us ready for the launch of new zones. We're going to continue to build out this screen over the next few updates.

Looking AheadHey there, folks. Happy Anniversary! Since the October update, the PlanetSide 2 team has grown a great deal. With that growth meant taking some time to get reorganized, which held up some of what we had originally intended to deliver with this update. The good news is that it also gave us the chance to re-analyze our short and long-term goals with the new resources in mind, and the result became a solid new internal roadmap that will bring some exciting changes to the game at all levels of play. We'll talk more about our plans for this year and next during the Anniversary stream on Wednesday, Nov. 20; and I'll be sure to follow that up with a Dev Letter the following week that expands on what we share during the stream.
