CONCLUSION OF CIVIL WAR: NEW TECH PUBLIC TEST SESSION
– JULY 5 - 4 PM PDT -
Greetings MechWarriors!
We are concluding our PTS session for the upcoming Civil War technology and equipment update and will be shutting down PTS today, July 5 at 4 PM PDT. We would like to give a big thank you to all the MechWarriors who have contributed feedback on the New Tech PTS sub forums. We are continuing to look through the collected feedback and make changes where necessary before the new technology and equipment launches later this month on July 18. Some of the changes we have made after PTS include the following:
- Rotary Autocannons will no longer incorrectly triggering heat penalties when fired from different weapon groups / paired with different RAC class types.
- Stealth Armor will no longer remove friendly HUD designation elements for teammates.
- MRM fire will properly track the targeting reticle.
- Artemis upgrade no longer improperly applies a bonus to MRM's, ATM's, and Rocket Launchers.
- A number of other bug fixes.
- A large number of weapon changes. Final values to be released with the Patch Notes.
You can look forward to reading more about the changes in a detailed write up about the Civil War technology and equipment update in the patch notes later this month.
