● Added new Volge LMGs.
● Adjusted time and cost for weapon remastery.
● VOT LMGs, Bolt Action Pistols and FRC Slug Shotguns have new appearances.
● Shotguns are being tuned to bring them in line with the other weapons and personalities we want to obtain with each type of shotgun.
● Mag Size Changes: We have made changes to the mag size of all bonus size mods and rarity bonuses. This was largely due to shotguns getting more shots per clip then intended.
○ Rarity Bonuses that increased Mag Size have been decreased.○
○ Clip Mods that increased Mag Size have been decreased.
● Elemental Proc Chance Change: We discovered that the shotguns were proc-ing per pellet at the full proc chance. This caused the shotguns to have a much higher chance to proc the elemental effect than other weapons.
○ Changed the proc chance per pellet of shotguns (excluding Slug based shotguns).
● These two types of Shotguns are being tuned to bring them in line with the other shotguns.
○ Rate of Fire change for the VOT Auto Fragger: We have made this change due to speed at which a player could kill its intended target. This weapon now has slightly lower rate of fire to bring it in line with the other combat shotguns.
○ Recoil Increase in the TACC Auto-Shotgun: This change was to add a bit more variance in the recoil with the amount of shells it could shoot from its high mag capacity.
● Faction merchant weapons now have a slight increase in damage.
● Adjusted the requirements for different skill levels with weapons to promote faster weapon skill leveling at lower levels. This should not change your current weapon skill level. If you were close to leveling up already, you might go up by one skill level because your current experience might be above the threshold for the new level. You should not drop in skill level. The overall time to max out a weapon skill should not have changed. Lower levels should be earned faster and later levels will take a little bit longer.
● Added some new mods for Infectors, BMGs, and Detonators. These will allow players to complete more synergies and fill all available slots.
● The SAW LMG’s were performing significantly higher than other LMG’s, so we have reduced the damage that they do to bring them more in line with other categories of weapons
● The Immunizer was tuned down to fit more of the anti-sniper role that it was intended to fill. That role is to flush out the longer range weapon users effectively by allowing for easier targeting and a punishment for standing still for too long.
○ We changed how long it takes to spawn infector bugs while using the Immunizer.
○ We decreased the rate of fire
○ We also increased the reload time.
● Fixed an issue that was causing nano-effects to trigger on melee and melee nano-effects to trigger when shooting enemies. This was not intended behavior.
