Squad News

Hello Squaddies,

Today we have begun rolling out a server-side update to address the increased desync/rubber-banding issues with helicopters that you may have experienced since the introduction of Beta 19.

Since we were made aware of these issues we’ve been working with Epic and their Unreal team to get a fix from the UE 4.24 version and pull it into our 4.23 environment to help combat these issues. Thanks a bunch!

As this is a server-side update, you also won’t be required to download any additional files as the fix is applied on the server you connect to. You will still see your client version as B19.5.0 but the servers will be running B19.5.1.

Please bear in mind, this fix is specifically addressing the issues found with helicopters, the team are still working to resolve the desync issues for ground vehicles and will continue to monitor the overall network performance.

Thanks again for your patience as we worked to resolve this for you.

Happy Thursday Squaddies,

It’s nearly the weekend, and to help matters we’ve got another round of hotfixes coming your way just before it starts.

Without further ado, let’s get to the changes:

• Fixed an issue with dragging an Incap player's body that has expired which would cause the players movement to be impaired.
  
• Fixed an issue where dragging a downed player who would then respawn caused a broken pose issue.
  
• Fixed connection cleaning issues in Remote Console
  
• Fixed missing impact VFX for HEAT projectile weapons that impact against leaf physmats.
  
• Fixed missing impact VFX for Tandem AT projectiles that impact against helicopter tail boom/engine components.
  

While some previous hotfixes didn’t require server updates, this one will, however. We hope these fixes will improve your effectiveness in combat over the weekend and we’ll see you out there.

Hey squaddies,

Hotfix 19.4.1.43 is here. From here on out we’ll be utilizing a new naming convention for builds to make them a little clearer, with this full build number being B19.4.1.43.30493 and the last build renamed to B19.4.0.37.

As part of this hotfix we’ve made these changes:

• The first pass of fixes for AMD users, these are still work in progress as we continue working on further fixes.
  
• Optimizations to the Artillery and Mortar impacts
  
• VFX optimizations to the heli rotor wash
  
• Fixed a performance issue caused by the healing/bleeding icons
  
• Fixed Whitelisted modded servers not appearing in the server browser
  

There are a few more fixes for AMD users we are currently working on and hope to have these with you as soon as possible.

Stay safe troops.

Hey squaddies!

We’re pushing out an update that contains some fixes for the server freezes, especially related to garbage collection. Clients and servers can update at their leisure and this update is compatible with Beta 19.4.

Stay safe out there, soldiers! We’ll have more soon.
