Year 4 Roadmap
Season 1 - Burnt Horizon
Australian operators, new map
Season 2
- Denmark & US operators
- Peru & Mexico operators
- Kenya & India operators
Operators
- Lion
- Dokkaebi
- Kanal
- Kafe
- Theme Park
- Operator renown and R6 credits pricing is changing, older operators are cheaper, Year 1 operators are only 10K renown, Year 2 15K, Year 3 20K, Year 4 25K
- Reverse friendly fire being implemented (persistent TKing means shooting a teammate hurts yourself)
- Casual is introducing 3.5 min timer and defender location (still random? but it is shown to defenders prior to operator selection)
- Ranked coming out of beta, keeping the pick/ban from the recent event
- New event coming with each season (e.g. Outbreak, Halloween)
- Kafe will have new balcony on third floor, staircase from 1st to second floor moved
- Kanal will have tunnel connecting both buildings
- Devs recognize half of Theme Park is dark and confusing, train platform has too many places to hide, will address these and more
- Lion rework no longer highlights people, timing changed (less warning, less active time?)
- Glaze's thermal sight only activates if he's been standing still for a bit or if a target moves?
- Deployable shield is being reworked, no longer leaves gaps between doors (!!!) and has tiny bulletproof slits (like a tiny Mira)
- Mute jammers will hang up Dokkaebi calls, and your HUD shows a blue jammer icon when you're in range of one, and Dokkaebi calls will hang up automatically after ~18s (bullshit, imo, as a Dokkaebi player)
- Capitao gadget getting proper fire propagation, meant to be area denial
- Lean spam being addressed. Players still look kind of twitchy, but their head is largely in the same place. They say it's the first version of the fix and will be continuing to be address it.
- Ash losing her ACOG (this, Dokkaebi, Capitao have already been shown off in the Year 4 patch notes which are on the official blog)
- Newcomer playlist for level <50 (which I think is still like 200 hours of play or something absurd); bomb only and three new maps
Panel is over. They talked about some eSports stuff at the end, but this is most of it.
