Localization

  • Updated Russian Localization.
  • Updated Chinese Localization.
  • Updated Korean Localization.

Difficulty Tweaks

  • Increased the visor and armor plate health of Bulldozers, this makes it much harder to break their visors for headshot damage making them overall a bigger threat. Additionally, they will not take damage from non AP weapons before said armor is broken.
  • Bulldozers no longer spawn in pairs on DS and their spawn cooldown has increased from 45 seconds to 90 seconds to account for their more menacing durability.
  • Vet Cops no longer have damage clamps. Instead they're more likely to dodge with no cooldown on doing so, and will drop Tear Gas grenades when killed by anything not a headshot.
  • ASUs no longer drop tear gas grenades.
  • Added a reduced spawn multiplier when playing on Solo offline, to make Solo a wee bit easier.

Weapons and Equipment

  • Added Stats for new weapons added in U228.
  • Flamethrowers have had their effective range reduced and are overall harder to handle to account for their potent sustain abilities.
  • Reduced flamethrower/dragons breath proc/stun chance from 60% to 50%
  • Increased the time it takes for Flechettes to deal full DoT from 6 seconds to 8 seconds
  • Reduced the amount of time poison gas lingers across the board
    • Throwable: 20 >12 seconds
    • 40mm: 16 > 10 seconds
    • 25mm: 12 > 8 seconds
    • 3GL 40mm: 8 > 6 seconds
  • Reduced ECM Feedback stun chance AFTER the activation wave from 75% to 60%
    • The first feedback wave still grants a 100% stun chance on enemies that can be stunned by one
  • Reduced the charged bonus range for melee weapons that have it from 1 meter to 0.5 meters
  • Specific weapon damage types now deal extra damage to Dozer armor:
    • Heavy Pistols > 1.25x
    • PDW > 1.25x
    • Sniper (DMRs and Snipers)> 1.25x
    • Anti-Materiel > 3x
  • Melee weapons can now deal damage to Dozer armor, melee weapons with higher knockdown stat will do more damage.
  • Adjusted melee ranges and knockdown across the board:
    • Ranges are slightly lower overall, shorter weapons seeing a bit more of a range reduction to make longer weapons stand out a bit more
    • Bladed/sharp weapons have higher damage with less knockdown on average
    • Opposite applies for blunt weapons, more knockdown but lower damage
    • You've found the briefcase to be somewhat armored under that leather cover :^)
  • Boosted the range of semi-auto snipers.
    • Semi-snipers still had range profiles that were balanced around them matching the damage of their bolt-action counterparts.
  • Also boosted the range of the SPAS, AA12 and M1014 slightly.

Perk Decks

  • Made Sociopath a bit more melee oriented by having melee kills double the cooldown reduction.
