New Barricade
We have noticed that the barricade system wasn’t being used too often during the last few seasons, so we wanted to enhance its usage in a way that doesn’t make it too overpowered at the same time.
That being said, we are changing the barricade's format on Outlands. Now, every barricade will be 3x2 blocks in size - making sure you have enough space to defend yourself during those intense PvP moments!
New Daily Kits (Ranks & Insignia)
We are always looking for ways to try and improve the PvP aspects of the game, and making players not completely dependent on crafting or looting cities to get their first guns or armor. As a result of this, we are now improving all the daily Insignia kits as well as the Rank kits.
The content in the kits will be mostly based on a solidly good PvP kit - so don’t miss out this opportunity if you don’t enjoy grinding or don't have the time to, but enjoy the combat part of Outlands.
New Armor Resistance
During the last few seasons we’ve been implementing new ways to balance the game. A recent example was the Standard Unlock of Rare Kevlar equipment - when a specific amount of Rare armor pieces are crafted in the game.
We saw that players were only distinguishing themselves based on the rarity of armor, and as we have just Legendary and Mythic armor that are higher than Rare, sometimes battles were determined on how much each player grinded.
Due to that, we are bringing a way to differentiate between each armor's resistance levels if they are Rare, Legendary or Mythic! When obtaining a piece of equipment with those rarities - through crafting, barrels, supply drops - each rarity will have varied resistance value, displayed in the table below:
Rare Kevlar: 66 - 70 of resistance value.
Legendary Kevlar: 70 - 76 of resistance value.
Mythic Kevlar: 76 - 82 of resistance value.
This also applies to all the other armor types (Soldier, Forest, etc), where a slight variation of each resistance will be found. We hope this change will alter how people treat their equipment, adding more singularity for each armor piece and bringing new strategies to the overall server combat.
Clan Slots
For the upcoming Outlands season we decided to decrease the clan slots to 2 members with no upgrades, or 3 with upgrades. Allies are not permitted.
We hope that during the last two seasons with higher clan slots, players were able to team up and adapt their groups properly. We are looking forward to seeing how strategies change now that Clans are quite significantly smaller!
