Summary
Gameplay & HAB Adjustments
This hotfix addresses a critical issue on Yehorivka where radial damage from explosives like grenades and 30mm rounds was not being correctly blocked by environment objects. Additionally, the developers have implemented a visual workaround for HABs; blueprints now feature stakes indicating where the ammo crate will spawn to help players avoid becoming trapped. A developer note mentions that the team plans to revert the recent HAB ammo crate changes entirely in a future update based on community feedback.
UI & Stability Improvements
Several UI bugs have been resolved, including missing grid lines on the minimap at high zoom levels and incorrect labeling in the Nvidia Frame Gen settings. Stability has been improved with fixes for crashes occurring during match queuing and VoIP usage, alongside a resolution for a memory leak.
