Quick Take

Players no longer drop $500 on death if they have no cash when eliminated by self-inflicted damage. Players can no longer detonate C4 while in Last Stand. The Exclusion Zone created by Fortune's Keep Boat has uses reduced from 3 to 2 and duration from ~140 seconds to ~80 seconds.

GAMEPLAY

  • Cash on Player Death

    • Players will no longer drop $500 on death if they have no cash when eliminated by self-inflicted damage.
We've observed this system being used to generate more cash than intended, resulting in an unintended impact on the in-match economy.
  • C4 Detonation Adjustment
    • Players will no longer be able to detonate C4 while in Last Stand.
We've identified C4 as an outlier, as players were able to manually detonate it while in Last Stand, which was not intended.
  • Fortune’s Keep Boat Exclusion Zone
    • The effectiveness of the Exclusion Zone created by Fortune's Keep Boat has been reduced.
      • Reduced the uses from 3 to 2.
      • Duration has been reduced from ~140 seconds down to ~80 seconds.
We've identified an exploit that could extend the Exclusion Zone beyond its intended duration. This change ensures it expires as designed.

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed an issue causing there to be a delay when detonating C4. This was fixed in a previous update.
  • Fixed an issue where Loadout Crates could become non-interactable after being displaced by attached C4.
  • Fixed an exploit where players could avoid all damage by remaining in the Bank Vault interaction screen.
  • Fixed an issue where attempting to Prestige a weapon from the "Equip Weapon and Open Gunsmith" flow could instead Prestige the previously selected weapon.
  • Fixed an issue where the VS Rebound Havoc Repeater Fire Mod on the VS Recon prevented progression of the Network Special Camo challenge.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the Eldritch Gate (Floating Island) event on Haunted Hollow to be temporarily disabled. This was fixed in as previous update.
