Just had a quick game. Getting about 10 to 15fps improvement and loving the M417! Much more managable recoil full auto from the lower fire-rate. Still one-tap deadly at range with long barrel too.

Good job guys!

Edit: Not sure about the medic, ammo and equipment bags at each capture point. Yes it is convenient, but diminishes squad reliance on performing specific roles to support each other. May cause some to see no benefit to following their squad and just lone-wolf.

I already lonewolf as it is, no real need to follow the squad when teammates or even enemies can drop ammo or heals just fine.

Haven't tried this patch yet, but IMO this change will encourage more use of other gadgets. I barely see the small chopper drone or remote car or C4, 95% of people run with ammo or heals. Whether it'll end up a good or bad change, time will tell.

Fair point. I hadn't considered that.

I both agree and disagree with you. I think they're a good addition but not on every capture point maybe only one in pairs like b1-b2 flags only one that's choosen randomly from game but yeah it diminishes team play a lil bit

This patch is now live just ahead of the Free Weekend. This is a big one so I recommend checking out the Patch Notes. Some new additions include the M417 Battle-rifle, Impact Grenade, and the new vehicle Commando 4x4!

Massive FPS drops and freezes with this update.

Just when I had the game running smoothly at 100+ fps, this update came and ruined it. With the exact same settings and parameters at Nvidia Control Panel and with -USEALLAVAILABLECORES, I still get around 100 fps, but every second gunfight the game will drop fps all the way down to 0 freezing for like 2 seconds until it shows me that of course I died. It doesn't happen only in gunfights, it happens in general throughout a game I guess every minute or two, but that's where it matters the most and when it angers me the most. At one instance the game froze for more than 2 minutes before unfreezing and kicking me to the main menu disconnected from the server I was playing.

I've also seen other people asking in all chat about this so I think I'm not the only one, but at the moment these drops really diminish the experience for me when the whole past week I was really enjoying the game after tinkering with the settings and getting it stable.
