  3. New Patch - 6/15

Good Afternoon!

Another patch is live.

Here's what it does:

1. Removes the ASE Basketball promotion

2. Removes Double XP

3. Fixes the joining-the-wrong map bug, which caused a number of issues many of you have noted

4. Fixes the headset bug – headsets should work with rivals and friends now. Let us know if this doesn't work

5. Blinding Powder - The attacker gets briefly blinded as well – Due to the numerous complaints about the over-poweredness of Blinding Powder, we wanted to try something to reduce its effectiveness. We hope that this doesn't completely negate the use of the power, but if so, we're not afraid to revisit it.

6. Deatomizer infinite ammo exploit is fixed – Thanks for getting this figured out, guys!

I'm sure you've figured out by now that we don't want to rush into making balancing fixes (nerfing, etc… ) That's why we only roll one out at a time. Please, as always, keep your opinions flowing!

Good job guys!
You are the most dedicated team! You fixed the deatomizer glitch pretty quickly! :)
Thanks again!
I can finally use this sign for a funny quote....but I can't think of one...

I personally don't use BP but I also have no problems with other people using it. Having said that, if the user gets blinded too, there really is no point. That's more than a nerf. That's making the perk completely useless imo. A nerf would have been to decrease the time that it blinds people.
Are sigs really necessary? Who came up with this stuff?

Hey HVS i kinda agree. Maybe the user should have a charge...like, you use it, but you have to wait a while before the effect comes back.

thanks for the update and the fixes. but to be honest, blinding power wasnt OP to begin with and it rarely gets used over supercharger (atleast in hardcore mode), so now it never will. if quickness was quicker and blinding power was left alone i'd say group B would be pretty close to a toss up and u would see less superchargers out there.

all in all i'd say the game is very very balanced and well done

I think Blinding Powder was very powerful, infinite mini flash nades? yeah, it needed a nerf. But I think the upgrade should still give me some advantage, I will give it a try.

Never the less, I really was hoping for more improvements. This pretty much debunks the dlc rumors.

It says the attacker is briefly blinded, therefore the attacker will still recover before the attacked victim does.

is that why everyone uses supercharger over it?

also, i still have to reconnect to online multiplayer everytime i try to join a rivals game that is full. zzzzzz

There is no everybody in this game. I found an equal amount of people using either BP or SC. Both being quite annoying.
