Version 3.2.6 Live

[Lartnev]

Sporkfire has announced that PlanetSide version 3.2.6 is now live on the servers. Here're the notes:

Battle Islands: Global Benefits!
December's Combat Event focuses on the Battle Islands, creating unique combat scenarios and offering benefits for locking the facilities on those continents. Check out all the details here!
BFR Adjustments

• Standard BFR's will no longer be available for purchase. The Gunner variants will be available to players after Imprinting in the caverns without requiring the Advanced BFR merit. The Gunner variants will be renamed Colossus, Aphelion and Peregrine.
• Adjusted the armor on the Gunner variants to all be the same, equaling the current Colossus.
• Adjusted the movement characteristics (top speed, turning radius, etc) of all Gunner variants to be the same, roughly equaling the current Colossus. Run speed is now 35 kph for all.
• Moderately increased the effectiveness of BFR Gunner weaponry.
• Lowered the damage absorption and regeneration rate (while moving and crouching) for the Flight BFR's.
• Reduced the armor on all Flight BFR's.
• Reduced damage done by BFR pilot weaponry.
• Adjusted movement characteristics of the Flight BFR's to be roughly equal or better than the current Eclipse.
• The Advanced BFR kill streak has been adjusted to required 15 kills.
• Caverns Facilities will count toward BFR acquisition if they merit 450 or more Experience.

Other Updates

• Holiday hats, gift corpses and lights on the frozen continents will be back again to celebrate the holidays.
• The stats pane will reflect driver assisted kills, meaning that if a gunner scores a kill, the driver will also have a kill registered to their stats. Driver assisted kills will be tracked in their own section of the stats pane.
• Bail malfunctions will now have a chance to occur when a vehicle has 35% or less armor remaining.
• Corrected a bug that could cause door IFF locks to disappear at certain Level of Detail settings.
• Corrected a joystick slider center point default that was not being applied properly.
• Corrected a issue that could lead to a crash to desktop when respawning.
• Lodestars can no longer repair vehicles while they are flying.
• Corrected a problem that could cause you to stop hacking a control console when your vehicle was attacked.
• Removed the possibility for a gunner to take damage when bailing from colliding with the back of the vehicle.
• Fixed invisible collision issues with removed BFR bays on Battle Island maps.
