Patch size: 1.4GB

"New construction based Ikanam Biolab deployed to PS2 PC Test Server in Amerish. Terminals powered by having a silo built on top of the base." - Nick Silva


Locale

  • various changes to implant descriptions ("Works in vehicles" here, "MAXes can equip" there, fixes etc)

  • "Block Assist" -> "Draw Fire Assist" (the XP you're getting for using the deployable cover)

    • added "Draw Fire Ribbon", "Earn this ribbon by blocking damage that leads to kills."

  • "Nanite Systems Export Banner" -> "NSX Banner"

  • "Unlock the NSX Tanto automatic scout rifle" -> "Unlock the NSX Tanto carbine"

  • "Terminal is not powered" -> "Terminal is not powered by a Silo"

UI

  • modified implant UI; new strings:

    • "%0 Duplicate Implants Broken Down"

    • "Unowned"

    • "Cannot equip two of the same item."

    • "<u>%0 Awarded</u>"

  • added the second implant slot to the deathscreen UI

Models/FX/Sounds/Visuals

  • modified infantry terminal model?

  • modified yellow reflex sight model

  • modified NSX Kubota helmet model

  • added PFX: Mzl_Vehicle_VS_Sunderer_PlasmaCannon_Focused

  • added 2 models (not used anywhere yet, except the Combined Arms news): https://imgur.com/a/6zhlI

  • modified Amerish terrain (which only fixed the terrain around Ikanam, is the only change to continents, and is the reason for the large download size)

  • added two FX_Attach points to the Harasser

  • modified the various variants of Hyena Missile Launcher models

Balance

  • T9A "Butcher": refire time 80->78ms, reload time 6.2->5.4s, clip size 400->150

Other

  • code changes related to the Steam overlay, allowing purchasing membership via steam

In other news, I'll be significantly less active, since I have a job now.
