[/list] [/list] [b][i]Designer Notes:[/i][/b] [i]After many requests and lots of voices asking (a lot) for a way to search for specific items in your inventory OR purchase them in the Store, we finally included an Item Search Bar! Now finding stuff is easier than ever, on any platform. We also added a way to easily toggle the Friendly HUD for players who prefer less information on the UI, or for the ones who need to check things real quickly.[/i] [i]Regarding balance, we have made tweaks in some weapons, following the State of the Game Survey:[/i] [i]The Minigun was a powerful weapon, but magazines were always empty by the time the fun started! Bigger mags and more spare ammo make the minigun a great option for its weight and price.[/i] [i]The revolver trio (Rhino, Winterbite, Spitfire) had a bit of a problem, and it was its bash attack. The animation and impact were slower than other similar pistols. If any of the gun wielders got trapped, having that weapon meant they wouldn’t have any good way to escape. Now, the bash speed has been leveled with other pistols (9mm, Revolvers) and any class which uses it will have a way to defend themselves.[/i] [i]The HRG Locust is an extremely powerful weapon just by its design. Both that and its price being 900 Dosh made it a weapon not properly adjusted to its Tier. After the changes for this update, the weapon should feel more fair in all matches now.[/i] [i]Reducto Ray’s case was basically the same as the HRG Locust but in an opposite way. It wasn’t a weapon as powerful as its price suggested, so it became the Tier 2 alternative for the survivalist.[/i] [i]The common opinion on HRG Healthrower was that it’s currently a weapon that’s too powerful. It worked wonders both for healing teammates and had the killing capacity of Firebug spray weapons. The Debuff applied to this weapon was solely focused on the damage aspect of it. It’s now a weapon more oriented to healing and supporting teammates, still preserving the viability of using it in Solo mode.[/i] [i]The Mine Reconstructor needed a bit of love to show how great a weapon it is, so we increased its Fire Rate! Woohoo![/i] [i]The Road Redeemer is a limited Berserker weapon whose stats didn’t make a difference with its Tier partners. After a damage buff, it owns its rightful spot.[/i] [i]Feedback on HRG Crossboom was that it was too weak. After checking and looking for what made it weak, we found out that the arrows took too long to explode after impact, and that the explosions weren’t as devastating as they should have been. That has been addressed![/i] [i]The Head Hunter is a very special weapon, which forces the Sharpshooter to change its playstyle. However, the main gimmick of the weapon (pop heads with the alt-fire) was overly constrained. Now there’s room for more usage of that Alt-Fire.[/i] [i]And now, for the Field Medic perk. [/i] [i]We read tons of feedback regarding the Field Medic and how it was the most powerful Perk by a difference. Especially how its Level 5 skills made them virtually invulnerable in some specific situations. In order to balance this Perk and make others as usable as this one, we adjusted the effectiveness of both Resilience and Symbiotic Health. We also debuffed the final extra run speed the class got passively due to its level. That, combined with the Healthrower debuff should make the Field Medic much more balanced compared to other Perks.[/i]
