Summary
Anti-Cheat & Integrity
Super Earth has implemented Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) alongside additional security tools to enhance game integrity and protection against exploits.
Massive Weapon Rebalance
A comprehensive balance pass has been applied to primary weapons, particularly those from the Killzone and Halo Legendary warbonds. These weapons received significant buffs to damage and recoil control to compensate for their lack of customization. Additionally, standard shotguns like the Punisher and Breaker received damage increases, while the Sickle variants saw improvements to charge times and heat management.
Stratagem Enhancements
Several stratagems have been tuned for better usability. The M-1000 Maxigun now allows for immediate movement after firing and features increased stagger, while the Orbital Airburst Strike has a reduced cooldown and a tighter shrapnel pattern. Flame-based stratagems, including the Lumberer Exosuit and Flame Sentry, received a substantial damage boost to their flame particles.
Technical Improvements & Fixes
This update addresses numerous crashes related to vehicle customization, SEAF shuttles, and ragdoll physics. Performance optimizations for CPUs (including Xbox Series S) and various visual fixes for upscalers like DLSS and FSR have also been implemented.
