by Powerbits | 0 Comments | 06/08/2023

New Weekly Update! A lot of changes in this one…

A little bit of this, a little bit of that.

Our latest update brings a wealth of changes to improve your time in BattleBit Remastered. While some may seem overdue, it was very important to us that we take our time with aspects that may alter the core gameplay. We poured over all of your feedback constantly, to provide what we hope you will find as healthy additions to the game. In short, you can expect faster progression, an additional healing method available to all classes,

TWO

new map reworks and further polish/bug fixes. We’ve also made major progress with our Community Server API and will expand our testing as we lead up to a larger rollout of access.

v2.0.0 Patch Notes

GENERAL PLAYER UI / UX

Game will no longer auto lock squads when a party member reserves a squad for their party to join, instead, a non party member will be forced change squad (with their role) if the reserved party squad is full while a party member is joining to server.
Improved detection for targeting downed players to bandage/revive.
A bug where player’s armors & body does not sync when player is standing still and client loads their object for first time until they move – fixed.
When a player shoots at a mine/C4/claymore, the shooter will take ownership for the explosion, as if they owned the mine/C4/claymore. Previously, ownership remained with the person who deployed the mine, even when someone else shot at it. This led to instances where shooting a friend’s claymore/mine would kill them.
Players will no longer be allowed to place mine/claymore under water

PROGRESSION/XP IMPROVEMENTS

Progression curve will ease after level 15 to keep consistent time to level up.
– This is intended to decrease the time commitment and XP required to reach level 200 on average.
Empty transport/boat vehicles will no longer give points when destroyed.
XP Score Event added: Destroying enemy c4/mine/claymore will give a hitmarker and additional XP

CLANS

Clan submissions will open with requirements of minimum Prestige 1.
Used clan invites persisting once used from clan invite list has been fixed.
The issue where the 100 clan invite limitation included expired invites has been fixed.

UNIVERSAL HEALING

Bandages

now apply self-heal, even when bleeding, gaining +40 HP for each bandage used. This applies to all classes.

cannot

heal other players by bandaging, it remains the same as before, you can only stop bleeding or revive, but it will not heal them, only the
