The latest update of PlanetSide 2 is here and it brings many welcome changes. Tweaks for construction have been made, along with multiple bug fixes, additions, and general improvements.
Construction items don't have a cost in VR anymore, and Factions Banners don't decay when they are near a silo. Memory leaks caused by DLSS and GUI models are fixed, and the Esamir map and minimap have been updated.
Construction
- Construction items no longer have a cost in VR
- The Glaive IPC's targeting dart no longer requires a line of sight with the base Glaive structure
- Added cortium cost (50 per burst) to the Glaive IPC
- Faction Banners no longer decay when in range of a silo
- Decaying Faction Banners no longer provide experience when repaired
- Command Center and Rebirthing Center terminals are no longer available when the structure is not powered by a silo
- Fixed an issue where Tapp Waystation did not have enough space to build a Command Center and Rebirth Center
- Dev Note: Two sections of the ring have been removed, allowing the construction of larger structures in those two locations
- Routers that are not under the influence of a friendly Routing Spire (500m range) will decay and die within 10 seconds
- Dev Note - Routers can be under the influence of multiple friendly Routing Spires
- Removed the Access/Permissions radial menu from the Routing Spire
- Routing Spires' interaction prompt is now easier to access
- Pulling vehicles from construction terminals no longer grant XP
