For veterans of the ash-choked battlefields and newcomers alike, here's everything you need to know about the upcoming changes.

Focus of This Test:

2. Server Infrastructure Upgrades

To combat lag and disconnects during peak hours, the devs are rolling out:

Regional Server Expansion

New Locations: São Paulo, Mumbai, and Johannesburg servers added.

Ping-Based Matchmaking: Strict 100ms caps for competitive queues.

Persistent "Warfront" Servers

24/7 Large-Scale Battles: 50v50 mode on a persistent frontline (map changes weekly).

Dynamic Events: Sandstorms, artillery strikes, and supply drops alter tactics.

3. Map Queue System Overhaul

The hated random map rotation is being replaced with a player-driven vote system:

How It Works:

Pre-Match Voting: 3 random maps appear; squad leaders vote.

"Conquest" Priority: High-population maps (e.g., The Shattered Refinery) appear more often.

New Maps Added:

"Blighted Harbor" (Close-quarters urban combat).

"Sunscorched Trenches" (Open-no man's-land with destructible cover).

Class-Specific Map Preferences:

Medics get bonus XP on dense maps (e.g., Refinery).

Snipers favored on long-range maps (e.g., Trenches).

4. Class & Weapon Tweaks

Medic Nerfs:

Healing Pulse Cooldown: Increased from 12s → 18s.

Revive Speed: Slowed by 20% (risk/reward emphasized).

Sniper Buffs:

Breathing Stabilizer: Reduced sway after 5s of scoping.

Ammo Capacity: +2 rounds for bolt-actions.

New Weapon: "The Ember Saw"

A hybrid LMG/flamethrower for the Heavy class (unlocked via playtest achievements).

5. Community Feedback & Beta Roadmap

The devs highlighted key changes based on player demands:

"No more nighttime maps!" → Temporary removal of "Midnight Siege."

"Squad VOIP is buggy" → Fixed in this build.

"Add Asia servers" → Planned for Phase 2 (2025).
