Patch 1.025

Trion announced Patch 1.025 July 23 and it will go live July 24. For NA 10:00AM PT with 2 hours downtime, EU servers will be patched 4PM PT.

Summary

  • Major arkfall types spawn rate balanced
  • Lots of bug fixes
  • Challenges: Hotshots & Rampages: You should no longer get stuck after repeatedly suiciding (for example, during the Crystal Defense Hotshot) 
  • Fixed a rare crash that could occur during an Arkfall
  • Fixed a bug where you would lose ammo swapping weapons in the current loadout when the ammo pool was full.
  • Fixed a bug where players would join an instance and not be properly put into a group (yet they could still interact with group teleporters)
  • Fixed a bug where group UI did not appear for some of the group members when entering an instance
  • Fixed a bug where adding a Strain Reducer Mod to the Innoculator would reduce the amount of shots fired to one
  • An EGO call was set to repeatable by mistake, resulting in constant EGO spam after completing any TV Tie In Recap Mission. This is no longer the case.
  • Players are no longer spammed with their most recent EGO power level up and things they unlocked when logging into the game or changing servers into PvP, etc
  • Fixed an exploit where players could go to a friend during the beginning of a Rampage, causing Advanced Weapons to drop at their friend’s feet.
  • Fortunately, you will no longer be spammed with “You are now bound to the Bathhouse” when near certain extraction points.
  • Sometimes Monarchs and other nastiness would spawn during the Marin Time Trial: Mine Alley making the race difficult to complete. The Monarchs have let up, and will spawn elsewhere.
  • Emergencies: Landmine Rescue: Updated landmine arming range to be a bit farther away. This will let you approach them to disarm them without them just blowing up in your face (which was rather unfair).
  • Tweaked Arkfall frequency to more evenly distribute enemy groups (i.e. previously there was a high frequency of Hell Bug Arkfalls and you would rarely see Scrapper Arkfalls)

Yeah I doubt we will see hotkeys, however the UI is pretty horrid for it. I would quite like to see a quick menu for switching, perhaps as an item of the standard quick menu.

Don't think they have any intention of adding hot-keys for loadouts I remember reading a dev post saying if they dont want people to be able to switch without the risk of getting nailed, they want you to use your head before you start fighting.

Glad to see some of the bugs are finally starting to get worked out. 

Now if they would just put some hot-key bindings in for loadouts.

So the one fix for the Strain Reducer mod for Infectors is a buff and not a nerf?

Sounds good to me, to be fair getting sick of the constant hellbugs. Surely the arkhunters hourly massacres have thinned the population somewhat.

So the Forgery contract will be easier now, if we're getting more major scrapper arkfalls.
