Panzerstorm Map Updates
A while ago we released the map Panzerstorm and we've been super happy with how it's been
received by you, the players! We've played with you and
listened to your feedback and comments.
We've also looked at the telemetry gathered from thousands of games played by millions. Based on
all this, we've decided to make some changes to the map, both big and small.
P
robably the most obvious change is the ex
tension of the F point. We added additional buildings to
the Swine Farm and made it basically four times bigger. These buildings should bring additional cover
to infantry and tanks alike. We also added an oak alley along the road between G and D to make it
easier for infantry to navigate in this previously open space.
A common criticism of the map from infantry players is that they feel they are too exposed. We've
worked a lot to try and help you out with this. We've added lots of ditches and mounds along e
dges
of fields to help you sneak up on tanks out in the open. We call it the “Arras treatment”, and if you’re
familiar with that map you will now find more height differences along ridges, stone walls, and roads,
as well as deeper ditches next to those roa
ds. Lots of these changes are fairly minor but will add up
to a more enjoyable infantry life.
While the tank battles from A to D are really cool, we want to add some soft cover to allow tankers to
actually advance. We've added a few trees to help with this
. We've also rotated the house on the D
point 180° so you can use the top floor for sniping. We've also added ladders to the barn on D if you
want to take a peek out into the fields. Some of the changes should mirror gameplay improvements
we achieved by ad
ding the oak alley to the area between D and G.
The path between D and E offered no real lanes or good cover and when studying the data, we could
clearly see that fighting between D and E is much more erratic than we'd hope for. We've tried
improving upon
what's already there by adding additional soft cover and height changes in the
terrain to help you at least get some of the way before deciding if it's worth taking the risk running
out in the open. This should hopefully lead to fewer firefights where gett
ing shot from unexpected
angles occur. We'll keep an eye on the telemetry to see if we need to make additional changes going
forward.
The area between B and C has been integrated into the tank
defense
line. This will lead to more
infantry cover between the
se points and hopefully extend the strong infantry movement from E, D, C
to B as well.
We've also heard that the flight ceiling feels a bit low on this level. So, we raised it.
Lastly, we added additional Fortifications across the map to help infantry buil
d up a stronger foothold
against advancing tanks.

Soldier Fixes and Tweaks
•
The volume attenuation of third
-
person footsteps over distance has been increased. It is now
at a point between the original shipped value and the previous update. At 25m from the
player, the footstep volume will now drop to 28% (11dB drop) of the volume h
eard when
compared to someone next to the player. This compares with a previous update value of
71% (3dB drop), and an original shipped value of 10% (20dB drop).
•
Footstep sounds on snow have had their perceived volume reduced slightly.
•
Fixed a bug where p
layers were unable to redeploy if they had been killed by Dynamite and
then almost got revived by a medic.
•
Made multiple bipod deploy detection improvements on different surfaces that would
previously be ignored or tend to easily not connect.
•
Transitioning
to prone is no longer possible if there is not enough space to fit the player. This
means that players will no longer attempt to prone if there isn’t enough space to begin with.
The feature is currently missing messaging that will come into a later patch.
•
Fixed an issue where it wouldn’t be possible to damage players performing a high vault.
•
Increased the minimum vault height when players are moving forward with a minimum
forward velocity of 1m/s. This improvement will reduce situations where players will
vault
over small height obstacles (rubble etc.) instead of simply jumping.
•
General vaulting improvements.
•
Players are no longer vaulting stairs when trying to jump while running.
•
Added a faster ledge
-
grab animation that can be triggered when falling for
a short duration.
•
Improved the slow ledge
-
grab animation to make it less jarring.
•
Made the detection of ledge grab continuous when pressing and holding the vault key while
falling. Mashing buttons is no longer required to grab a ledge while falling.
•
I
mproved tracking of enemy soldiers by reducing the leaning on turns and sharp direction
changes animation. This will keep the soldier’s upper body
steadier
and bring more
consistency to combat (mostly with rifles and pistol poses).
•
Fixed an issue where the enemy soldier’s head would be turning towards the wrong direction
when some nearby events would be playing, creating situations where players could feel like
they got killed by players not looking at them.
•
Fixed an issue where the
transition between killcard and bleed out would be delayed for a
minimum of three seconds.
•
Fixed an issue where the revive icons seen above downed friendlies would not deplete
preventing players from understanding the time left for a revive.
Vehicles
•
Ble
nheim passengers will no longer be able to see the pilot’s crosshairs within their view.
•
Fixed the third
-
person bomb sight on the Stuka B
-
1 which was missing.
•
Fixed a bug with the Spitfire MK VB where the plane could no longer fire its guns once the
ammo c
ount was below 50 bullets.
•
The Staghound will now play all of its collision sound effects.
•
The Flak 38 now shows the correct ammo name.
•
Improved the behavior of the flares on the Panzer 38t.
•
Moved the The Last Tiger emblem on the Tiger tank, so that it’s n
o longer hidden behind the
camp gear attached to the tank.
•
Added a horn to the Universal Carrier.
Honk away!
•
The Blenheim Supplies Specialization will now drop both health and ammo.
•
Fixed an issue where the vehicle repair process would not reset if the rep
airing player would
exit the vehicle.
•
Fixed an exploit where players could skip the reloading process for weapons.
•
A substantial system improvement in AA behavior has been made to make the experience for
shooting at airplanes more consistent. Players shoul
d notice that shells that detonate in
proximity to an airplane do damage more consistently, and also that shots that are closer to
the target do more damage than shots that are further from the target. This is especially
obvious when planes are flying dire
ctly at or away from an AA, with higher damage for flying
at an AA and lower when trying to escape an AA. We have adjusted damage values on all AA
guns to compensate for this improvement, and the different kinds of AA guns should now be
clearer choices. Fa
st
-
firing AA is now better against highly maneuverable, small targets like
fighters. Slow
-
firing AA is now better against larger targets like bombers.
•
Tweaked the projectile firing position on all Stationary and towable AA guns, which no longer
causes play
ers to fire into sandbags or into the ground when aiming low.
•
Fixed an issue where using a controller for movement and mouse for aiming simultaneously
could randomly cause vehicle turrets to break and not rotate anymore.
Weapons, Gadgets, and Specializat
ions
Gameplay
•
Fixed an issue where the repair tool would sometimes not work when attempting to repair
the Universal Carrier.
•
Cancelling an armed grenade can now be done by either pressing reload or any of the
inventory switch buttons.
•
Aiming Down Sight (AD
S) animations with all weapons and all sights have been revamped to
better reflect the correct point of aim while strafing and walking. All rifles, SMGs, LMGs, and
shotguns now have improved visual stability across all scopes and firing a first shot will b
e
much more accurate.
•
The transition animation from stand to crouch while in ADS has been improved to better
match the accuracy changes.
Visual
•
Removed the floating bullets when getting shipments to the Armory for the Bren Gun.
•
Fixed an issue where SMG
magazine parts would sometimes disappear when swapping from
the smoke grenade launcher back to the primary weapon.
•

iron sight
was obstructed by some muzzle
customizations.
•
AT Mines should no longer appear as floating in t
he air for players joining after those mines
have been placed.

•
Frontlines: Fixed several issues with Frontlines that were causing the game mode to be

that their “deploy point is no longer available”
when attempting to spawn.
•
Removed any traces of Reinforcements from the Domination and Team Deathmatch game
mode, as Reinforcements are not intended for these modes.
•
Fixed an issue on Aerodrome that would l
et players get into an unintended area within the
airplane hangar.
•
Improved the painted floor textures on Hamada near Objective F when playing Conquest.
They were previously very blurry.
