Hotfix - July 24

July 24th, 2023 Hotfix Notes

Matchmaking:

• Adjusted matchmaking rules so that players are restricted to matches in their level range. This will ensure that high level players with high level weapons and armor will not fight against much lower level players.   It will also ensure that players will find the right level of loot for their level.
• Current levels are: 1-9 minimum security, 10-19 low security, 20-34 medium security, 35-49 high security,50+ max security ,65+ (not active) ultra max security
• Added a feature that scales base health and shield up to the minimums for a security level in a scenario where low and high level players are partied.   This will allow higher level players to bring low level players and give them a chance to compete.
  • They are as follows:
  • Low - 159/159 HP/Shields
  • Medium - 168/168
  • High - 186/186
