- There is a brand new airport in the center of the map

- Improved player spawn locations for Solo, Duo & Squad matches

QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS & BUG FIXES
- Improvements to Framerate for players using Video Cards. Remember, using an onboard video device will likely cause poor performance. Make sure your system is above the minimum system requirements!
- Crouch has received some visual animation updates as well as a speed increase to make crouch more viable for sneaking around
- A fix has been applied for a known FPS drop when being shot by other players
- Arc Shield, Ammo Crate, and Medical Station now give 3 per boost, up from 1.
- Player levels are no longer displayed during the match to prevent confusion where new players thought player level was affecting character stats. Level is purely cosmetic for the badge icon and provides no benefit in game.
- There is a new Achievements menu at the end of the game to better track your stats from the match. Each performance goal unlocked during a match increases your total experience gained. These are all individual bonus XP incentives that can be earned each match.
- Supply drops now fall from the sky significantly faster than before
LEVELS, EXPERIENCE & ICONS
- Rewards for all players placing in the top 50 have been added as well as players placing in the top 5 have received an increased reward
- Experience required per level is now 2,000 XP per level, down from 10,000 per level. This should result in much faster account leveling!
- Updated icons to update more frequently as player levels up
- Brand new accounts will receive double XP for the first 10,000 XP earned
COSMETIC UPDATES
- You may now purchase Starlight Coins with real money
- You may now unlock Weapon Skins using this new Starlight Coin currency
- Certain character cosmetics are no longer attainable by Gold Coins and now are only available for Starlight Coins
- The Character Cosmetic menu has been reorganized

ANTICHEAT UPDATES
- Additional fixes & updates to our Anticheat systems
JUMP PUZZLE

See you in game!
