Generation Zero Patch 1.31 Notes – August 23, 2022
- Rivals now drop apparel schematics in a more functional way: quality levels will be dropped in sequence. For example, if you only have a Quality 2 schematic, the next drop of that type can only be a Quality 3 schematic, and so on. This was done to make the experience a bit more understandable for everyone, and subsequently, relieve a problem of having gaps in a schematic line which players could not use.
- The stat effects of apparel schematics are roughly double overall, but some might fall a little above or below that. This is dependent on how they “scale” into the overall experience for players, as some might have been too powerful/imbalanced.
ADDITIONAL TWEAKS & IMPROVEMENTS
- Quantity is now displayed in the HUD when picking up loot
- Increased the damage per shot and decreased the fire rate for the Kotenok and S21 to make them feel more like DRMs
- Increased damage per shot for the AT-WAD to compensate for the small magazine
- The weapon wheel now displays used-up items as grayed out in the weapon wheel; picking up more of the “remembered” item will automatically place it in the previous slot
- Bad luck modifiers added to experimental weapon loot; this means that the chance of getting them increase if you have not gotten one over a number of attempts
- Credits screen is updated to reflect the current team composition
- Vehicles now use the same movement input as walking; this means that they now will rebind as you rebind the walking keys
