Summary
Naval Enduring Confrontation
The "Enduring Confrontation" mode for Naval vessels has received a significant mechanical overhaul. Matchmaking is now based on Battle Ratings, aligning it with Arcade and Realistic battles. Entry barriers have been lowered, allowing any ship with a BR of 3.3 or higher to participate, and the previous requirement for a 4.7–5.0 BR ship has been removed. Additionally, spawn point costs for ships are gone, though a new spawn timer has been introduced for players using the same vehicle at the same location.
Graphics & UI
A minor graphical issue in the settings menu has been addressed, correcting the reference images for Water Effects Quality.
