Battlebit Remastered has received a significant update that includes tons of changes such as a barbed wire, gun balancing changes, a new boat and much more. The new 2.0 update has an extensive list of changes that might affect your playstyle so it’s worth taking a look
This article will tell you about all the changes included in the new Battlebit Remastered 2.0 update.
BattleBit Remastered: Barbed Wire, New Boat, XP & Class Changes
The first change is that all players using the assault class will be able to use the Honey Badge, Groza, P90, AsVal, MK20, M110, MK14 and SVD. All Assault players will also be able to use the Ranger armour for protection which is lightweight armour that allows you to carry more ammunition and provide better mobility.
Next is balancing changes of the Kriss Vector where the damage has been increased from 22 to 42 and the damage drop-off begins at 10 meters instead of 50. The standard magazine can now hold 36 bullets from 40 which is a minor downgrade.
The Medic class has also received some modifications as it will have 3 C4s instead of 4 with the normal backpack adding 2 more if you wish to use them. This means the Medic class will have one less C4 in their pocket which addresses the controversy that the Medic class shouldn’t have access to destructibility and explosives like the Engineer class.
The ACR has seen some balancing changes too with the running speed buffed from 1.01 to 1.05x and the aim downtime buffed from 0.25 to 0.21 seconds. The control speed has been reduced from 100% to 105% while the damage has been increased from 25 to 27.
The AK5C has also received a damage increase from 30 to 34 and the vertical recoil has been increased from 1.2 to 1.4. Similarly, the first recoil has been reduced from 1.5 to 1.0 while the reload speed has been increased by 12.5%.
Next is the SG550 and the muzzle flash of this gun has been reduced from 100% to 85%. Moving onto vehicles, the APC now takes 2 times the damage from the back meaning that it’s more easy to destroy.
The Wine Paradise expansion now has the support of the Conquest 254 game mode and the progression system will ease after level 15 to provide consistent time for players to level up
The major change is to the healing section as classes other than medic will now be able to use bandages to heal themselves regardless of the bleeding status. They will gain 40 HP for each bandage used and this is applicable to all classes.
Since this list of changes is too extensive and long to be discussed point by point, here are all the changes being implemented in Update 2.0:
GENERAL PLAYER UI / UX
- Game will no longer auto lock squads when a party member reserves a squad for their party to join, instead, a non party member will be forced change squad (with their role) if the reserved party squad is full while a party member is joining to server.
- Improved detection for targeting downed players to bandage/revive.
- A bug where player’s armors & body does not sync when player is standing still and client loads their object for first time until they move – fixed.
- When a player shoots at a mine/C4/claymore, the shooter will take ownership for the explosion, as if they owned the mine/C4/claymore. Previously, ownership remained with the person who deployed the mine, even when someone else shot at it. This led to instances where shooting a friend’s claymore/mine would kill them.
- Players will no longer be allowed to place mine/claymore under water
PROGRESSION/XP IMPROVEMENTS
- Progression curve will ease after level 15 to keep consistent time to level up.
- – This is intended to decrease the time commitment and XP required to reach level 200 on average.
- Empty transport/boat vehicles will no longer give points when destroyed.
- XP Score Event added: Destroying enemy c4/mine/claymore will give a hitmarker and additional XP
CLANS
- Clan submissions will open with requirements of minimum Prestige 1.
- Used clan invites persisting once used from clan invite list has been fixed.
- The issue where the 100 clan invite limitation included expired invites has been fixed.
UNIVERSAL HEALING
- After a long discussion, it’s apparent that the medic is the only class capable of enduring more than one fight. Other classes cannot survive a second fight after being shot. Consequently, making other classes very unpleasant to use, in response, the following change has been implemented:
- Bandages now apply self-heal, even when bleeding, gaining +40 HP for each bandage used. This applies to all classes.
- – You cannot heal other players by bandaging, it remains the same as before, you can only stop bleeding or revive, but it will not heal them, only the Medic can heal OTHER players with their Medkit Gadget.
