Update 0.7.1 Patch Notes

Update 0.7.1 will be available for troopers to download today, May 6th, 2024, at 10 AM PT (GMT-7).

This patch is a collection of quality-of-life changes, performance improvements, and numerous bug fixes. Some fixes affect video and graphical settings, so troopers should review them after the update.

[h2]Known Issues[/h2]
  • "First Aid Stim Dart" will not provide XP to troopers when healing other troopers.

[h2]Tuning[/h2]
[h3]Federation Tuning[/h3]
Demolisher
  • Adjusted the ability “Barrage” cooldown from 60 seconds to 40 seconds.
