Re: GU11 Patch Notes


Continued.



UI Updates
Loadout Screen Improvements

Now displays locked, unlocked, and upgradable cert items (like scopes, abilities, suit mods, etc)
Now displays un-owned slot items
Added quick weapon switch arrows
Will display the last used loadout per class by default

Squad and Platoon Improvements

Added an icon callout for friends in the Squad and Platoon windows
Leaders names are now highlighted and have an icon callout in squad and voice chat listings
Added a drop down option for the platoon leader to set a member of their squad as the leader of that squad
Squad members in vehicles now display an icon to denote that status. This icon is color coded (green for open slots, grey for none) to show if the vehicle is full or has more room for passengers/gunners.

Squad Browser Improvements
We’ve made several additions to the squad screen, including:

Continent column and Continent filter
Outfit Tag column
Squad Leader column
Description text will now show platoon subsquad coloring and information
Page number display

Squad Manager Improvements
We’ve made several additions to the squad management screen, including:

Battle Rank column
Location column (in meters or continent name depending on if you’re on the same continent)
Outfit tag column
Vehicle icon callout if the player is in a vehicle
An area to drag and drop a member to create a platoon
Toggle to show the outfit tag of the squad leader

Quick Action Menu Polish

Increased tracking speeds for vehicles and infantry.
This should keep the menu in the center of the screen and track on the target much faster. Having the menu stay in the middle of the screen will make it much easier to select the menu option of your choice.
Control should not be inverted if mouse control is inverted

Other Miscellaneous Improvements

Experience reward text will still appear, even when an experience threshold has been hit
Revives remove the death stat received
Cached several UI menus to decrease load times
When clicking on the Squad Deploy or Instant Action button, the map will move to show you where you’ll spawn
Region Names will display when mousing over a waypoint HUD indicator
Expired Bundles in the Depot will no longer display
Made a visibility pass on NC vehicle HUDs to help them stand out better against Indar environments

Bug Fixes

Fixed common pool weapons displaying faction icons in the depot
Fixed an issue causing the fire mode on the weapon stats UI to be too small to read
Fixed incorrect text strings displaying on faction specific weapons
Fixed an exploit that allowed players to circumvent visions restrictions with aiming down sights by activating the scoreboard or not drawing the HUD
Fixed missing vehicle weapon utilities and ammo attachment certs missing from the VR zone
Turret and vehicle IFF indicators will now hide themselves when you don’t have line of sight

Facility/Environment Updates
AP Phalanx Turret Changes

Xiphos Anti-Personnel Phalax Turrets
Increased maximum turn speed for quicker aiming
Will now fire empire colored tracers (instead of always being yellow)

Bug Fixes

Fix for issues causing the environment and other assets to flicker in and out of view
Ammo towers should properly render in the VR training zone
Players should no longer be able to get inside collision at certain areas of the Tawrich Tech Plant
Jump pads as the spawn room of the Peris Amp Station should now work correctly
Fixed the missing SCU shield generator at Mani Bio Lab
