WEAPONS

• The Boogie Bomb dance effect is now removed upon taking any damage. We will continue to monitor and iterate on this item’s functionality.

  • Changed the Boogie Bomb rarity to blue/rare to more accurately represent its true rarity.

GAMEPLAY

• Fixed an issue which caused players to pass through their recently built and edited structures.

• Fixed an issue which allowed sniper bullets to pass through players without applying any damage.

  • Fixed an animation issue caused by entering the DBNO state while in the air.

  AUDIO

• Increased the audible range of enemy footsteps, as well as their overall volume.

  • We're aware of an issue causing footsteps to sometimes play at irregular intervals when offscreen. We’re working on a fix now, expect it next update.

  • Enemy footsteps are easier to hear when performing certain actions such as building, shooting, or collecting resources.

  • Fixed an issue which caused sniper bullet impact sounds to trigger more than once per shot.

• Fixed the phantom bullet sounds that are sometimes heard throughout  a match.

  • Reduced the volume of the drone that teleports player out of each match.
