Winterupdate Screenshots

Ab sofort unterstützt Battleborn nämlich eine Auflösung von 1080p und 60 Bildern pro Sekunde, was für kompetitive Shooter eigentlich Pflicht ist. Die Entwickler kommen damit endlich den Wünschen der Community nach.

Darüber hinaus ist es nun möglich, grafische Einstellungen wie die Qualität der Partikel-Details selbst festzulegen um ein optimales und flüssiges Spielerlebnis zu garantieren. Im 2-Spieler Splitscreenmodus bleibt es jedoch bei 30 Bildern pro Sekunde, was für die meisten Spieler aber zu verschmerzen sein dürfte.

Darüber hinaus liefert die Aktualisierung noch zahlreiche weitere Verbesserungen, die wir euch im folgenden Changelog präsentieren:

General:

Command Rank maximum has been increased to 150, with additional rewards for each rank after rank 100.
- Core Packs awarded for most Command Ranks
- Legendary Packs awarded every 10 Command Ranks
- New Titles awarded every 10 Command Ranks
- „Battleborn“ achievement still awarded at rank 100
Character Rank maximum for all characters has been increased to 20, with additional rewards for ranks 16-20.
- Earn a Faction Pack for the associated character faction for each for ranks 16-20.
- Earn new Character-specific titles at rank 17 and rank 20.
- Character Mastery rewards are still granted at rank 15.
- „First Among Heroes“ achievement still awarded at rank 15.
Added support for the PlayStation 4 Pro
- PlayStation 4 Pro now has the following video options
- 1080p @ 30fps

- Native 4K @ 30fps
PlayStation 4 OG and Xbox 1 can select between 1080p @ 30fps and 1080p @ up to 60fps
- Xbox 1 splitscreen is hard-capped through code to 1080p @ 30fps for performance reasons

Optimized client and server processing of player profile data

Optimized friends list functionality on the frontend

Main Quests & Daily Quests:

While battling to save the Universe is a reward in itself, we’ve always wanted a way to reward coming back and playing daily in Battleborn. We’ve heard that request a number of times from players as well, so here it is! Quests!

Main Quests are one-time-completion tasks that help train new players, while offering huge bonus Credit rewards. Daily Quests are forever! Come back every day and complete new daily quests for additional rewards.

Players now receive a Main Quest chain and additional Daily Quests that can be completed for rewards
- When first logging in, you will receive a Main Quest. Subsequent Quests become available when the previous one has been completed
- After completing one match, and then after once per day, you will receive a Daily Quest. No more than 3 Daily Quests can be active at a time, so make sure to complete your Daily Quests promptly!

Improved Character Select:

Since before launch, we’ve wanted to integrate Draft selection mode into competitive play. To do that, we needed to overhaul Character Select to handle different types of character selection depending on which mode you’re about to play. With the Winter Update, character select is completely reskinned and cleaned up, and is now more versatile than ever!

Players may now choose from up to 5 different character select styles in Versus game modes
- Captains Draft 5v5
- Ban Pick 5v5
- Quick Select
- Chaos Rumble
- Classic
Character select is now broken into multiple phases, which depend on the character select style
Players can now reselect their characters during the selection phase by navigating to the character list and backing out of their selection

Training:

One of the most consistent requests we’ve received from players was for help understanding the unique game modes of Battleborn. We’ve tackled that in a few distinct ways. The new Versus Training mode uses Nova to walk you through many of the basics of competitive gameplay, including Helixes, bases, buildables, minions, sentries, and one of the most overlooked features – teleporting back to base!

We also heard that players wanted a way to try out characters outside of a match. So, we’ve created the Dojo! Jump in, starting at level 5 with 100,000 Shards, and practice your skills on waves of minions. Level up quickly and play with combinations of abilities. Tap Nova when you’re ready to leave and reset the Dojo.

Added a Versus tutorial, featuring concepts from the Incursion game mode
- Players will initially be able to access a single-player Incursion tutorial to learn the basics of the game mode
- After completing the tutorial, players will be able to access a training experience that matches 3 players against 3 bots
Added a single-player Dojo training map

Characters:

Swapped the Helix locations of Level 9 Mutation Icy Resolve with Level 4 Left Helix Augment The Cooler
Increased the accuracy bonus of Level 1 Right Helix Augment Weather Man from 30% to 50%

Thorn

The character team wants to improve the archery fantasy of Thorn so focused on augmentations to promote firing more arrows. We also felt that Thorn lost a lot of damage with the recent Blight changes so we wanted to return some of it via augmentations.

Incursion:

Added a Nova callout when the M7.Super Sentry is destroyed

Meltdown:

Meltdown has been a popular game mode, but we felt that it had some issues. It was a bit longer than we wanted it to be, it was hard to get a comeback, and the ending was somewhat anti-climactic.

So, we’ve updated Meltdown to a new version called Meltdown: Finale!

While you’re still helping MINREC escort minions through recycling grinders to appease his mad-robot-godhood, you now require less score to advance the mode to its new Finale stage! During the Finale, gigantic Ultra Minions spawn and you only need to get one of those Ultra Minions through a recycling gate to win! While the leaders will still have advantages here, there’s now more of a chance for a dramatic swing in the late game.

Once either team reaches 300 score or 20 minutes have passed, the Meltdown Finale begins!
- Ultra Minions begin spawning instead of normal minions for the remainder of the game. The first team to score a single Ultra Minion into the enemy’s final grinder wins
- The team with the greater score after the initial Meltdown phase receives advantages in the Finale based off of the size of their lead, such as stronger Ultra minions and an uncontested first wave of Ultra Minions
- Ultra Minions become stronger in each successive wave

Capture:

Many players have appreciated Capture as a fast brawl-type mode in Battleborn. We felt, though, that Capture was failing to capture what is unique about Battleborn – the strategy of leveling, activating gear, and working with a team to hold points. So, we’ve re-worked the mode to give players a much faster start, and have re-worked experience awards in the mode to better reward the types of play that we feel make Capture interesting.

Players now start at Level 3
Players now start with 500 Shards
Reduced the amount of time required to capture or neutralize a point from 8 seconds to 6 seconds
Increased Experience bonuses for capturing, occupying, and neutralizing capture points
Varelsi Scouts no longer drop Helix pickups when killed

Varelsi Scouts now provide the entire killing team with significant Experience

Face-Off:

Improved the pathing of Varelsi enemies

Snowblind: Reduced the value of Shards near the southern Tier 3 Varelsi camp

Story Missions:

Players can now acquire Diamond score medals in the 8 original Story missions. Acquiring a new Diamond rating awards a awards a Legendary Gear Pack, up to 4 per mission (Normal, Normal Hardcore, Advanced, and Advanced Hardcore).

The Algorithm

Increased the damage Geoff takes from area of effect attacks
The health of ISIC’s head slowly drains for the duration of the second phase of the Magnus boss figh

The Experiment

Reduced the aim assistance when targeting Antem

The Void’s Edge

Players can no longer become stuck in the Varelsi Void if Deande’s Holotwin decoy is alive at the end of the Void phase
Players can no longer become stuck in the Varelsi Void by activating a teleport skill during the Void phase transition
The number of activation pads required to start the Conservator boss encounter no longer scales up with player count

Gear and Economy:

While loot has been fairly generous in Story Missions, we felt (and heard!) that Versus matches were less satisfying in the rewards players earned. So, we’re changing several things in order to help Versus play be more equitable to story missions in terms of what you can earn.

We’re more than doubling the average amount of credits you earn per hour. We’re also consolidating loot packs for sale in the Marketplace into one new loot pack – the Core Pack. The Core Pack is much more expensive than our previous Common Pack, but it now guarantees at least one Rare piece of gear, and has a much better chance of giving higher rarity gear from its three additional slots. The Core Pack has been priced at 2,500 credits, which means you’ll be buying these fairly regularly, after a few matches of play.

We like the excitement of opening packs, and wanted to focus that in, while reducing the complexity of trying to understand a marketplace full of packs with subtle differences.

Dramatically increased the amount of credits earned per hour when playing Versus matches.
Players can now purchase the Core Loot Pack, which has replaced the Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic and Faction Loot Packs in the Marketplace
- Each pack contain 4 pieces of gear (one of which will be Rare or better), and also has a chance to drop a skin or taunt
- Packs can be purchased for 2,500 Credits
- Previously acquired Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Faction Loot Packs will not be modified by this change, and can still be earned through Story Missions, gaining Character Ranks, and completing Operations with 100 Ops points.

Legendary gear is exciting and powerful, but over the last few months, we’ve discovered a number of ways that gear can be combined with other skills or systems to be more powerful than intended. Sometimes, the best temporary solutions we could offer were to reduce stat numbers to make those gear items almost useless. Conversely, many pieces never lived up to their potential, and as a result did not warrant the activation cost of a Legendary item.

With the Winter Update, we’ve performed a full audit of our Legendary gear and have made a number of changes and enhancements to attempt to tune each Legendary item to be balanced and useful.
