Survival Changes:

Spawning fixes and tileset tweaks over the past year greatly improved flow by reducing enemy travel time to players, upped the intensity of attackers and grouped enemies together into more tightly packed squads, and increased availability of points during spawn selection. While we’re happy with these changes to enemies, one side effect is that survival difficulty drifted over the past few months to where it is now; plentiful large canisters and no reason to use them, even when not trying to stockpile them.

We’d like to bring back the original frantic gameplay style of Survival, dashing from room to room while facing hordes of enemies against the clock. We’ve tried this solo, in small teams and in full squads, everything from Apollodorus to T4 Survival, and as far as we can tell the changes feel awesome.

Upcoming Changes:

– Each PLS drop is now worth +4 seconds of life support time instead of +6 seconds

– Small reduction to PLS drop rate (around 90% of what it was)

We’d love to hear your feedback and will continue to test and tweak if needed.

Additions:

• The Mastery Sigil that was given out via Inbox message has been added to the Market for 1 Credit!
• Added Mutalist Alad Coordinates to Rotation B of ODS. This missed the build cutoff but will be in the next one!

Survival Changes & Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where Personal Life Support Capsules would give 2x the intended amount when picked up by Clients in certain scenarios. This bug has existed since Survival was introduced, and is a huge contributor in why Solo missions are so much harder in Survival (no Clients to get 2x the Life Support).
• Changed the amount of seconds each Personal Life Support Capsule gives from 4 seconds to 7 seconds (please note that the unit here is seconds, not percent).
• General Note: Restored the Personal Life Support Capsule drop chances to pre Update 17.2.4 values. What this means in the short term is that the stakes and pressure are back to being very low (for now). With the 17.2.5 version of Survival, it is likely that having a full row of unused Life Support Towers will be easy to achieve, especially in a group setting. However, work is ongoing to strike a balance in what the right amount of urgency in Life Support is.

• Continued to tune personal life support drop rates.
