Feature Updates
Gameplay
Gravlev Balance Updates
Updated acceleration restrictions to gravlev player height changes. Full Balance Pass for performance changes for all gravlev vehicles.
Distortion Temporary Changes
Distortion damage has been effectively removed from all item except power plants and dashboards. This is a temporary measure until we rework how distortion damage penetrates vehicle hulls. Shields now have a 75% to 95% resistance against distortion weapons (based on power triangle assignment).
Updated mining item descriptions and HUD to reference Inert Material Level instead of filtering
Added a mild push impulse force on catastrophic shatter of mineables (with a smaller force for FPS variants)
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue that could cause aUEC purchased ships to be lost from LTP after a patch
This LTP bug fix will take affect going into future updates but not going into 3.22.1. This issue was sometimes causing ships that were insurance claimed to become unsaved from LTP unless the ship was ASOP spawned and then restored into a location.
UGF Elevators should no longer go missing
Fixed an issue causing the Klesher elevator to not be present for players exiting prison
Mercury Star Runner AI in HRT Bounty Hunter missions should no longer spawn as civilians
The “Perform Treatment” text should now appear correctly when using the treatment menu in medical beds
Fixed an issue causing the “Target Attackers” hotkey to not select the target that is target locking onto you
Fixed an issue causing some hostile AI drop their weapon when entering combat

Distortion damage should no longer cause severe performance decreases proportionate to ship size
Esperia Blade should no longer be missing its personal storage
Toggling the Engine of Ground Vehicles should no longer cause the Engine SFX to Play at full volume, even when idle
Fixed an issue causing invulnerable areas around weapon Syulen hardpoints
The Proximity sensor doors on the Drake Corsair should now properly respond to players
Fixed an issue causing the Reclaimer bridge to fill up with fog when quantum traveling to MIC L1
The interior ambient machinery audio volume should no longer be overly loud in the Hercules Starlifter
Fixed an issue causing the ROC Mining Laser to not be able to be activated
Fixed an issue causing all energy-based weapons to show “0/0” in Ammo count on ships and not be able to fire
Fixed an issue that could cause Refinery Kiosks to be stuck at “Signing out”
Player tractor beans should no longer fail to work on a container if multiple players interact with the same cargo container using a Tractor Beam at the same time
Players should no longer be able to land ships at the transit platforms of the Lorville Central Business District, blocking access to the entire area

Arena Commander 3.22.1 Patch Notes
New Experimental Mode: Grav Race Feel the rush in this exciting new Experimental Mode featuring Grav-lev vehicles racing through 5 new maps: The Snake Pit, The Snake Pit (Reverse), Clio Islands, Rivers Edge & Shifting Sands.
Master Modes: 3.22.1 Update Master Modes is testing becomes more important than ever in Arena Commander 3.22.1 with another large update to this special test of the upcoming system.
New Game Mode: Master Modes: Pirate Swarm (Special AI Test) We are conducting a very special test of brand-new AI behaviours, focusing on closer engagements and more aggressive traits. Tuned specifically for Master Modes. Play through 13 waves, experience 1v1s and new wingmen. Although the waves are different regular Pirate Swarm will remain active for comparison with the current AI behaviours.
This mode replaces Master Modes: Endless Vanduul Swarm
Atmospheric Maps We have enabled atmospheric maps across all Master Mode game modes to assist in testing Master Modes in more environments. It is important to note that this patch does NOT include the “Control Surfaces” atmospheric flight model demonstrated at Citizen Con 2953.
New Ships A wider selection of ships has been introduced to all Master Modes tests.
- P-52, Snub Interceptor - Gladius, Light Fighter - Buccaneer, Medium Interceptor - Super Hornet F7C-M, Medium Fighter - Vanguard Warden, Heavy Fighter - Constellation Andromeda, Medium Gunship - Hammerhead, Anti-Fighter Corvette*
Excluded from Master Modes: Classic Race*
More Details - Adjusted capacitor tunings - Rotational buffs under boosting now depend on capacitor assignment - Retuned shield strength - All fighters now utilize “bubble” shields.
HP changes - Slightly reduced health of Buccaneer - Slightly reduced health of Super Hornet
Engines - Set pitch yaw limiters to ellipsoid in Master Modes - Rotational speed and acceleration modifiers for boosting are now dependent of the capacitor assignment (50% to 100%) - Capacitor assignment will not affect the boost burn times unless you are flying an interceptor - Reduced overall pool but increased regen by 50%. - No regen difference in NAV vs SCM mode for boost capacity - Adjusted regen delays (Snubs: 0.25s, LF: 0.5s, MF: 0.75s, HF: 1s, Connie: 2s, Hammerhead: 3s) - Slightly reduced rotation rates of F7CM and Vanguard
Shields - Shield regen overall has been reduced - S1 and S2 shield generators turned into bubbles for now - S2 shields are weaker (due to the bubble) - Capacitor assignment has now a much bigger impact on the resistance (energy 0% to 50%, Ballistics 0% to 25%) - Shield reserve pool in NAV made can now hold 100% of the shield generator’s health)
Weapons - Reduced regen delays (0.25s for anti-fighter, 0.5s for unspecialized) - Reduced ammo speed of all MM weapons, P-52 ammo increased - Added custom KRIG gun for P-52 Merlin - Removed heat from Master Modes energy weapons
Mode Update: Gun Rush Weapons of the ‘verse are currently being updated across the board, with this several weapons featured in Gun Rush no longer provide the best experience. To temporarily address this concern, we have updated several ranks in the mode:- note that all ranks have been reduced by one due to the removal of one.
Rank 1: FS9 -> Demico Rank 2: Custodian -> FS-9 Rank 3: Lumin -> C54 Rank 4: ArcLight -> P8-SC Rank 5: Salvo -> Coda Rank 6: GP-33 (Grenade Launcher) -> LH86 Rank 7: Gallant -> P6-LR Rank 8: S71 -> P4-AR Rank 9: Ravager-212 Twin -> Karna Rank 10: Devastator -> GP-33 (Grenade Launcher) Rank 11: P6-LR -> BR-2 Shotgun Rank 12: Arrowhead -> S-38 Rank 13: Railgun -> Scalpel Rank 14: Atzkav Sniper (unchanged) Rank 15: Knife. (unchanged)
System & Balance Disabled Ballistic Persistence Ballistic Persistence, a system which had you respawn with the same ammo you had upon death, has been disabled in all game modes to see the effects on ballistics in Arena Commander instances.
UI Message Queuing Resolving several issues related to UI messages overlapping/overriding each other by introducing messaging queuing, messages should now play one after another and restore “Status” messages rather than clearing them when a new message appears.
Kill Confirmed Vehicle Scoring Kill Confirmed (Vehicle) pickups will now award based on the value of the destroyed vehicle.
Spawn Screen Improvements Several improvements have been made to the UI user experience of the Spawn Screen based on feedback. Including closing the vehicle selection in more ways, a list view of available multicrew ships which is always available, more information on who and how many are aboard a selected vehicle before spawning and more!
Disabled Maps The following maps are being disabled due several unresolved bugs causing them to no longer reach our release standards. We hope to address the concerns for the next major release.
- Bloodshot Ridge – Disabled in all FPS modes - Makers Point – Disabled in all FPS modes - Winners Circle – Disabled in all Masters Modes modes
Misc - Disabled Ready System in Squadron Battle - Improved Team Balancing, to highly prefer keeping Squads together. - Scoreboard in Racing game modes will now display players in order of race position, rather than Lap/Score. - Fixed an issue where Death Info would show absurdly high numbers in cases of over-damage. - Fixed an issue where Death Info got stuck on screen. - Fixed an issue where “Return to Simulation” appeared during spawn process. - Fixed an issue where players were getting AFK kicked after running out of lives in Duo Showdown & Swarm modes. - Fixed an issue that caused Master Modes: Classic Race to have the wrong lap counts - Fixed an issue where the Ready System UI would not appear correctly in certain cases - (Game Wide) Fixed an issue that caused grav-lev “anti-fall” to not trigger across rivers
