Restructuring of the BP System
Previously, we offered BP rewards based only on your ranking. Now, we’ve restructured the system to take into account both play time and ranking.

Rewards have been restructured to equalize the differences in BP efficiency based on playing time for each Map and Mode.

We’ve changed team rewards to be shared:

• You will no longer receive 4 times the BP because you were playing alone in a squad game

Gameplay

• Bluezone effect has been changed
• Added ‘TPP Aim Camera Position’ to options
  • Reset to Right Shoulder (default setting)
    • Camera will always be positioned above the character’s right shoulder
  • Reset to Left Shoulder
    • Camera will always be positioned above the character’s left shoulder
  • Latest Peek Shoulder
    • Camera position automatically moves to the direction you last leaned
  • Latest Aim Shoulder
    • Camera remains in the last ADS direction
    • In this setting, the camera position won’t be changed by leaning while not in ADS or scoping

• Added a new attachment: the Laser Sight
  • Bullet spread is reduced when hip firing and soft-aiming
  • The Laser Sight fits on weapons with a lower rail slot available, taking up the grip slot.

• Added the improved Marker/Ping System first introduced for testing on the 8/1 test server update
  • Using (R) button, you can create a marker where you are aiming on the compass at the top of the screen (not visible in the world)
• All team members can see this marker on the compass
• After setting the marker, there is a 2 second cooldown before you can mark again
• The marker on the compass will automatically disappear after 5 seconds
• When the ping markers overlap, the closest located marker will be shown on top.
• Increased maximum sensitivity (10 → 20)

UI/UX

• Added a key guide to the loading screen tips (XBOX image will be applied soon)
• Improved the design of the map markers
  • This is thanks to feedback that some players were confusing the previous marker design with the player icon

Reporting

• You can now report a player for Teaming, Gameplay interference, Verbal abuse.
  • This can be done after the match is over

Performance

• Optimized weather effects to increase framerate – especially during rain
• Optimized cloud effects during free falling to increase framerate
• Improved performance by adjusting on-hit effects for various materials
• Improved server and client performance by optimizing the inner composition of the plane
