Greetings, Adventurers!
The Coral Divide Outpost Rush (OPR) preview weekend was a smash hit! With so many players jumping in, the excitement was real—so much so that a lot of you just wanted the map turned on as-is. But of course, we took your feedback and are making some key tweaks before launch.
What’s Changing?
General Improvements
- Map Size Adjustment – Reducing unnecessary open space to keep engagements dynamic and fast-paced.
- Terrain Optimization – Smoothing out rough terrain and obstacles that disrupt movement and combat.
- Improved Visibility – Adjustments to lighting, foliage, and environmental clutter to enhance clarity.
Objective and Balance Changes
- Resource Node Placement Tweaks – Relocating and balancing resource nodes to ensure fair access for both teams.
- Fortifications Adjustments – Modifying outpost defenses to prevent excessive turtling or overpowered positions.
- Updated Spawn Locations – Refining respawn points to reduce spawn camping and unfair positioning.
- Revised Capture Mechanics – Improving interaction points for smoother and more intuitive captures.
Combat & Engagement Enhancements
- Adjusted Line of Sight – Reducing frustrating sniper spots while maintaining strategic positioning.
- Better Combat Flow – Enhancing chokepoints and engagement areas for more balanced fights.
- More Cover Options – Adding or repositioning cover elements to prevent open-field vulnerability.
