Call of duty patch notes3/1/2023 ![]() From our internal testing, this change has brought a wealth of new Player stories and we will continue to roll out additional Perks in this manner as we review player feedback and data on how it improves the pacing and experience of Battle Royale. It's important for both pacing and movement in Battle Royale that there are always new rewards to be found for Players who rotate through locations for greater loot advantages, and our first step on this path is to bring single Perks into loot. ![]() We want to further increase the value and rewards of looting during the mid-game. All Perks are unequipped on death but do not drop.Lootable Perks are additive to Loadout Perks.Lootable Perks can be pinged to communicate to your squad.Only one of each Perk can be equipped at any one time.Loot that spawns across Caldera have been adjusted. Players who redeploy via Gulag victory or are bought back will now spawn in close proximity to their squad or Loadout.When a Player pings a Deployable Buy Station, there will now be dedicated audio/narration to better inform squad mates of the Players' intentions.This is especially noticeable when a target is in a vehicle to better inform Players that a vehicle chase may be required.We reviewed the data for the Most Wanted Contract and we felt that improvements needed to be made to increase its engagement and success rate, whilst still retaining the all important risk/reward that it offers. This brings balance and still allows tracking of the approximate location of the target.The refresh rate of the Most Wanted target on the Tac Map has been increased, to counterbalance the removal of the above ping.We felt this method was unfairly punishing and provided too great a degree of accuracy that was almost impossible to be countered by the target.Players can no longer use the Tac Map to ping an enemy Most Wanted target directly.We want this to be a Contract that both promotes and rewards aggressive play.Opening Supply Boxes reduces the timer by 5 seconds.Eliminating opponents reduces the timer by 20 seconds.It plays an important role both in gameplay and the visceral Call of Duty feeling, but we felt that we had seen one too many videos of Players jumping from high heights into the Gas and the game incorrectly prioritizing the Gas Mask animation over the parachute… and we all know how that scenario ends. The Gas Mask remains a continued focus for our Quality of Life efforts. Won't play animation when the Player is ADS and affected by the gas from Nebula V Rounds.Will no longer interrupt a falling Player, thus allowing them to still be able to pull their parachute when falling to preserve their life.Starting with Operation Monarch, we will be introducing "High Value Loot Zones" to provide new, fruitful opportunities for Players willing to take the risk. We have been happy with the results of these 'honeypot' opportunities but we want to take it a step further. With Season One, we introduced Public Events, like Cash Drops, during Infil to draw Players towards new loot locations. These zones will be complimented by Rebirth Supply Boxes that will provide recurring loot opportunities. These zones are represented on the Tac Map by a very appropriate "$" sign and will provide the best looting opportunities.Be warned, this Armored Truck can just as easily become someone else's… Destruction of the target will be rewarded with an Armored Truck Deployment via plane. Players will be given a vehicle target somewhere on the map.XP Tokens can now be activated from in-game through the menu.Added support for new Rebirth Island features (Comms Towers and Weapon Trade Stations) in some Modes.New barracks, hangars, and other structural additions.New Constructs, Supply Boxes, Contracts, ascenders, and a fresh coat of paint.Located between the Mine and the Ruins, Dig Site provides Operators the opportunity to rummage through abandoned excavation equipment, tents, and massive skeletons for Supply Boxes and other items. ![]()
