BALANCE ADJUSTMENT

Multiplayer & Battle Royale

AR/SMG/LMG Bullet Spread Adjustment

In the current versions of the battle rhythm, we have made a unified evaluation and adjustment to the distribution value of AR/SMG/LMG firearms. Overall, the average distribution of each gun system has been lowered:


ADS bullet spread: Significantly reduced (>20%)

Swordfish, M16, Pharo, LK24, FR .556, ICR-1, AK-47, HVK-30, Man-O-War, HBRa3


ADS bullet spread: Reduced (10%~20%)

M4, M4LMG, DR-H, UL736


ADS bullet spread: Slightly reduced (less than 10%)

Kilo 141, KN-44, M13, ASM10, AK117, BK57, CR-56 AMAX, RPD, AS VAL, Type 25, Holger 26, GKS, Chopper, Hades, QQ9, QXR


ADS bullet spread: Slightly increased

In the previous version, ADS bullet spread was too accurate, even more than some marksman rifles. We have increased the spread to balance.

RUS-79U


All the above changes are applicable to Battle Royale. In Battle Royale, the ADS bullet spread of all firearms is 60% of that in Multiplayer mode.


AR/SMG/SG/SR Movement Speed Adjustment

We have sorted out the mobility of weapons between different types and within the same type, so that the mobility of firearms is more in line with its positioning.


Movement speed: Slightly increased

DR-H, HVK-30, CR-56 AMAX, HBRa3, AK117, M13, KRM-262, R9-0


ADS Movement speed: Slightly increased

M21 EBR, SVD


Movement speed bonus of attachments: Reduced

PPSh-41 Fast Reload +8% → +5%

QQ9 Tactical Barrel +5% → +4%

No Stock +5% → +4%


ADS Movement speed bonus of attachments: Reduced

MAC-10 Combat Stock & Steel Stock +20% → +16%

Fennec Light Stock +15% → +12%

Light Mag +5% → +4%

MX9 Agile Stock +40% → +37%


RPD

Overall enhanced mid-range positioning firearms to suit rhythm.

Range: Increased

Damage Multiplier to the Head: Increased


RPD new attachment: Cooling Compressor Barrel

When equipped, the fire mode switches to the overheating mechanism. Controlling the heat can achieve stable and continuous firepower output.


Attributes:

Range: Increased

Vertical Recoil: Reduced

Hit Flinch: Reduced

Movement Speed: Reduced

ADS Bullet Spread: Increased


MAC-10

The current use of Mac-10 is very high. Mac-10 can deal relatively stable damage even at a slightly longer distance. Therefore, we appropriately adjusted the damage of the second range to reduce its advantage in mid-range.


Damage: Reduced


Assault Rifle Reload Speed Adjustment

ASM10

Slightly increased the reload speed, and optimized the reload action.


Tactical Reload speed: Increased

Empty Reload speed: Increased


Man-O-War

Slightly increased the reload speed.


Tactical Reload speed: Increased

Empty Reload speed: Increased


Mid-range positioning firearms Enhanced

We have re-examined the performance of mid-range guns and adjusted their strengths and weaknesses.


HBRa3

Range: Increased


New attribute for attachment: Thunderbolt Sling

Hipfire Bullet Spread: Reduced


FR .556

Range: Increased


BK57

Range: Increased


KN-44

Make it hit the head three times within 26 meters to kill the enemy.


Range: Increased

Damage Multiplier to the Head: Increased


CR-56 AMAX

Range: Increased


Peacekeeper MK2

Base Mag Capacity: Increased

Base Range: Increased (Does not work on Rapid Fire Barrel)

Reload Speed of Double Stack Mag: Increased


M4LMG

Range: Increased


UL736

Range: Increased


Hades

Range: Increased


New attribute for attachment Crossbar

Hipfire Bullet Spread: Reduced


AK117

As one of the first high-rate rifles to be launched, the AK117 is favored by many fighters, but its relatively uncontrollable recoil and weakness at medium distances make it slightly inferior to other high-rate rifles. Therefore, we have slightly increased its range and damage at the second range, and increased the damage multiplier to the upper chest and lower arms to ensure that it can eliminate the enemy with 4 shots on the upper chest and lower arms within the second range. So that its combat capability at medium distances can keep up with the mainstream level of the current version.


Range: Increased

Damage: Increased

Damage Multiplier to the Chest and Lower Arms: Increased


At the same time, we have updated the resources for its reloading action, and made corresponding fine-tuning of the reloading time according to the performance of the action.


Reload Speed: Reduced


LK24

In the initial design of LK24, we wanted it to be an assault rifle that can be used for mid-to-long-range camping. However, since the current version of the bullet spread is uniformly adjusted, the characteristics of the LK24 are not prominent enough. Therefore, we want to re-adjust it to match its positioning.


We have adjusted the bullet spread algorithm so that the first few bullets have higher accuracy under the condition that the maximum spread remains unchanged during continuous firing; and the bullet spread in the moving state is increased.


Range: Increased

Damage: Increased

Damage Multiplier to the Hands: Increased


GKS

As a medium-rate submachine gun, GKS has been struggling to adapt to the current meta. In order to bring it back to the battlefield, we hope to give a spotlight to its ADS ballistic advantages by slightly increasing its basic movement speed, canceling the penalty of bullet spread in the moving state, and strengthening its flexible Sprint-to-Fire characteristics. We have also adjusted the damage algorithm so that GKS can eliminate the enemy with three shots in the upper body at close range. We hope this will help regain its advantage in the battlefield.


Range: Adjusted

Damage: Adjusted

Damage Multiplier to the Head, Upper Chest and Arms: Increased


Renetti

Renetti's three bursts have higher requirements for accuracy, however, the range of 6m-15m is too short in comparison to all secondary weapons. Therefore, we have increased the range to help it adapt into the current meta.


Range: Increased


Multiplayer

Perk: Persistence

The initial intention of Persistence’s design is to allow more players to experience the fun of the unique scorestreaks of the COD series. However, due to the overpowering mechanism, the technical threshold for players to obtain advanced scorestreaks is too low. This affected the overall combat experience. Therefore, we are looking to make the following adjustments:


Persistence is changed to blue perk and will be incompatible with Hardline.

Therefore, the speed at which players can obtain scorestreaks is reduced.

When equipped with Persistence, all scorestreaks are divided into 3 segments in accordance to the score; players can only choose one from each segment to equip.

In order to control the impact of scorestreaks on the battle while ensuring players’ experience of scorestreaks, players will no longer be able to choose 3 advanced scorestreaks when Persistence is equipped.


Scorestreaks

We observed the performance of scorestreaks as a whole, and made some balance adjustments to some of them:


EMP Systems

Score requirements: Reduced


Orbital Laser

Score requirements: Increased

Duration: Reduced


Napalm

Duration: Reduced


Chopper Gunner

Score requirements: Increased


Battle Royale

In the last version, we tried to emphasize the effectiveness of mid-range combat and made changes to the damage falloff of Assault rifles and LMGs. Unfortunately, the latest adjustment did not quite meet our expectations. The slow bullet velocity and large ADS bullet spread has prevented the mid-range weapons from its full potential. Therefore, we have made an adjustment.


The mobility of LMGs in BR severely limits the play of them. We have made some compensation for their movement speed, though they will still be slower than Assault rifles.


Bullet Velocity Adjustment

Except AS VAL, all Assault Rifles and LMGs’ Bullet Velocity: Increased

Medium and low rate of fire Sniper & Marksman Rifles: Increased


Bullet Spread Adjustment

All Assault Rifles and LMGs’ ADS Bullet Spread: Reduced

Min/max mirror shot spreads are now relatively close for all LMGs/Assault Rifles.

The LMGs will reach its max Bullet Spread later than the Assault Rifles when under continuous fire.


Mobility Adjustment

Base Movement Speed of all LMGs: Increased


Runner Mod Adjustment

The duration and speed of the acceleration effect will vary depending on the gun types.

The acceleration duration of gun types other than Sniper Rifles/LMGs has been greatly reduced.

Cold Down Speed: Reduced


Class: Scout

The information obtained by the Scout is too limited, it should get more frequency and duration of use.


Charge Speed: Increased

Duration of Lv.2 Scout: Increased


Class: Mechanic

The EMP drone's search distance is not far enough, but the standby state will reveal its position. We hope that it will have a more stable effect.


The Speed drone approaching enemies and Deceleration rate: Increased

Drone’s Search Distance: Increased

Reduced the drone standby time, as compensation, shortened the time required for the drone to recharge.
