TCU Roster Addition - Ace Theus
Looking over the ratings on CFB Roster and I noticed Freshman Ace Theus from Duncanville HS was not put on the game roster. He is a scholarship athlete and has been at TCU since January 26 practicing and training with the team….is there still time for him to be added to the game? Would be awesome if he could. Dude has tremendous speed, agility and athleticismKaleb Maryland speed & throwing corrections
I appreciate the work that’s gone into the player ratings, but I think Kaleb Maryland (Utah State QB) could use another look. My concern isn’t his overall—it’s that some of the individual attribute ratings don’t seem to match his verified athletic testing and high school production Youtube link to watch him throw: https://youtu.be/dMOSvDAslSE? Verified Athletic Testing 10.48 FAT 100m 4.42 laser 40-yard dash (UA next camp) Those are elite numbers for a quarterback. An 83 Speed rating feels significantly lower than what those verified times suggest. A speed rating 92-95 would seem more representative. I mean look at his acceleration at 86 this should easily be in 94 or better- it’s not everyday you have QBs with these type of verified sprint times His passing ratings also appear conservative considering his résumé: Texas 6A Division I State Champion Approximately 3,500 passing yards 35 passing TDs Around 500 rushing yards 10 rushing TDs I’m not asking for an inflated overall rating because of recruiting status. I understand that three-star freshmen are generally rated lower than blue-chip recruits especially when they aren’t at a P4 school. My feedback is simply that the individual athletic and throwing attributes should better reflect verified testing and on-field production, even if the overall remains around 70. watch link to see how under represented his throwing ability is Youtube link to watch Deep/Medium/Short throws https://youtu.be/dMOSvDAslSE?is=6Rzro4RrpEqgttpE Thanks for considering the feedback.Update 6-24-2026

While admirable, the resemblance was minimal.

BATTLEFIELD 6 GAME UPDATE 1.3.3.0
On Tuesday, June 30, our next game update will go live for Battlefield 6 and REDSEC. At 08:00 UTC, players will be able to download the update across all platforms and jump in with the latest gameplay changes, including weapon and vehicle tuning, netcode improvements, UI and HUD updates, Portal additions, audio polish, AI improvements, and map and mode fixes. At 12:00 UTC, the new content in this update becomes available, including the Wet Work Event, Tactical Obliteration, Casual Battle Royale, the EOD Bot Arm melee weapon. Battlefield 6 Free Trial From June 30 to July 6, Battlefield 6 will be free to play for a limited time.* Jump into 5 modes across 4 maps, including the biggest map in Battlefield 6, Railway to Golmud, the reimagined Cairo Bazaar, Tactical Obliteration, and more. Download, squad up, and make your mark with a legendary Only in Battlefield moment. NEW CONTENT Wet Work Event Every player has a target on their back. Wet Work is a new Battlefield event built around cutthroat missions, high-value objectives, and high-stakes situations across Battlefield and REDSEC modes. Assemble your arsenal, identify your target, and begin the manhunt. New Mode Tactical Obliteration: The high-stakes Battlefield classic returns with a new level of intensity. With smaller teams and focused gunfights, Tactical Obliteration delivers a relentless chase for the bomb carrier in its purest form. Secure the bomb, escort your carrier to the detonation site, and obliterate the enemy. New Battle Royale Mode Casual Battle Royale: A faster, more accessible way to drop into Battlefield’s Battle Royale experience. Casual Battle Royale brings shorter, more approachable BR Quads matches with additional AI Bots, making it the perfect entry point for every squad. New Melee Weapon EOD Bot Arm: This bomb-defusing machine lends a hand in a different way. Repurposed from EOD equipment, the EOD Bot Arm is a new improvised melee weapon for close-quarters combat and last-ditch engagements. Major Updates for 1.3.3.0 New Content Arrives: The Wet Work Event begins, bringing a new hunt-or-be-hunted event experience across Battlefield and REDSEC, alongside Tactical Obliteration, Casual Battle Royale, the EOD Bot Arm melee weapon, and a new Battlefield 6 Free Trial. Gunplay Improvements: Core gunplay has been updated to reward more deliberate aim, better recoil control, and stronger weapon mastery. Damage multipliers, dispersion, muzzle velocity, bullet drag, recoil variation, and Bolt-Action Rifle sweet spot ranges have been adjusted so pacing shots, controlling recoil, and aiming for the upper body matter more consistently. Netcode and Damage Feedback Improvements: This update continues the netcode and combat readability improvements we’ve been making throughout the season. Hit confirmations, damage feedback, server-side damage handling, bandwidth prioritisation, and TimeNudge behaviour have received further tuning to reduce delayed damage, late enemy position updates, and extreme cases of dying behind cover. Vehicle Combat Tuning: This update builds on the vehicle changes introduced at the start of Season 3, with further tuning to counterplay, survivability, and weapon consistency. IFVs, MBTs, Mobile Anti-Air, Attack Helicopters, smoke systems, countermeasures, lock-on behaviour, and vehicle weapon damage have been adjusted to further refine their combat roles. REDSEC and Second Chance Polish: Battle Royale flow has been improved across looting, missions, Field Upgrade behaviour, Safes, UAV detection, and redeploy sequences. Second Chance transitions are now smoother, squads redeploy together more reliably, and players now face towards the centre of the ring when returning to the fight. UI, HUD and Front-End Clarity: Combat information and menu presentation have been improved across the game. Map indicators, objective messaging, revive prompts, hit feedback, Loadouts, Battle Pass rewards, Store previews, Ranked visuals, and profile customisation should now appear more reliably and be easier to read at a glance. Portal, Audio, AI and Map Polish: Portal creators gain new tools for moving platforms, physics impulses, camera controls, vehicle resupply, Obliteration support, and map imagery. Audio readability, AI vehicle behaviour, spawn placement, map collision, objective interactions, and mode-specific flow have also received further polish. CHANGELOG PLAYER: Dummy Targets no longer slide into place when entering the Firing Range. Firing Range now includes an additional target at 5m for testing close-quarters weapon damage. First-person ADS hit reactions now behave more consistently while seated in an open vehicle seat. Smoke Grenades now interact with spotting more reliably, preventing cases where smoke either blocked spotting incorrectly or failed to block spotting when it should. Soldier rotation now behaves correctly when changing stance while dragging a downed teammate. The Briefing Screen camera now centres correctly at the start of a round. Weapons no longer disappear in first-person after being revived. Netcode-specific Improvements Blood effects no longer appear on screen from shots that did not hit the player. Client hit confirmations now display faster when receiving damage. Damage corrections have been reduced by improving how client damage is matched with the server. Damage feedback is no longer delayed when taking damage from multiple sources at the same time. Damage handling has been improved when the server receives multiple damage events at once, reducing extreme cases of dying behind cover. Death timing is now more responsive in dense combat situations. Netgraph and connection icons no longer freeze when experiencing rubberbanding. Network bandwidth distribution has been improved to prioritise gameplay-critical players, such as nearby or visible enemies. Network TimeNudge now reacts more quickly when network or performance conditions change, reducing cases of delayed enemy positions. Network TimeNudge now recovers faster after performance spikes, with reduced spike severity. The client game clock now synchronises with the server more quickly after poor CPU performance. Time synchronisation now avoids unnecessary corrections during temporary latency fluctuations, reducing brief rubberbanding and stuttering. VEHICLES: Developer note: We’re making a series of changes to follow up on our update at the start of Season 3, targeting Vehicle Equipment that is under or overperforming. While we’ve made small changes to many systems, key changes include reducing the effectiveness of Thermal Smoke and increasing the damage of the RPG-7V2. ATPs now reset team ownership correctly when nearby friendlies are downed. Attack Helicopter Heavy Rocket damage increased from 94-250 to 120-320 against tanks, from 300 to 356 against helicopters, and from 450 to 520 against jets. Camera transitions when exiting a tank after using scoped turret view no longer clip through terrain. Emergency Countermeasures cooldown acceleration now remains active until Countermeasures are available again. Emergency Countermeasures cooldown acceleration reduced from 2x to 1.5x. Emergency Repair Pause On Damage timer increased from 1 to 2 seconds. Fixed an issue where tanks could take reduced damage from Top Attacks because they were being registered as a turret hit. Missile lock-ons no longer continue incorrectly against vehicles using, or positioned within, lock-on countermeasures. Projectile Intercept System activation time reduced to 0.55 seconds. Radio selection now works correctly when using a controller. RPG-7V2 damage increased from 173-460 to 188-500 against tanks, and from 1035 to 1125 against helicopters. The Smoke Generator now provides damage reduction benefits similar to Thermal Smoke, causing impact damage against vehicles inside the smoke cloud to register as minimum-angle hits. Main Battle Tanks MBT 120mm APFSDS Rounds damage reduced from 282-750 to 244-650 against tanks, from 600 to 520 against helicopters, and from 750 to 650 against jets. MBT 120mm HEAT-MP-T Rounds total blast radius increased from 4m to 5m, and lethal radius increased from 1m to 1.25m. MBT Aim-Guided Shell damage increased from 235-625 to 244-650 against tanks, and from 700 to 720 against helicopters. Infantry Fighting Vehicles IFV AP Shell initial velocity increased from 375 to 445 metres per second. IFV AP Shells now pierce the Projectile Intercept System. IFV AP Shells rate of fire increased from 120 to 160 rounds per minute. IFV Lock-Guided Missile damage increased from 390 to 450 against tanks, and from 845 to 975 against helicopters. Mobile Anti-Air Vehicle Armour Piercing Anti-Air Ammunition damage against aircraft increased from 160 to 200. General Purpose Anti-Air Ammunition damage against aircraft increased from 110 to 130. High Velocity Anti-Air Ammunition damage increased from 48 to 52 against helicopters, and from 60 to 65 against jets. High Velocity Anti-Air Ammunition heat generation per bullet reduced from 4.2% to 3.6%. Thermal Smoke Thermal Smoke damage received a cap increase from 75% to 100%, reducing its effectiveness in mitigating damage. Thermal Smoke no longer removes C-4 Explosives. Thermal Smoke now needs to cover the middle of a tank for it to gain damage resistance benefits. GADGETS: Goliath Compact Supply Pouches are no longer absorbed by nearby friendlies unless intended. LWCMS Portable Mortar resupply time can no longer be bypassed by redeploying or dying. M320A1 SMK and M320A1 THRM icons now display optics in the correct position. M84 Flashbangs no longer deal damage to gadgets. Placing a Motion Sensor after being revived now displays the Soldiers hands and the Gadget correctly in third-person. Shell impacts from Mortars and JAGM strikes are now visible on the Big Map. The GPDIS Grenade Intercept System no longer destroys itself after blocking one grenade. The MANET-DIS 5 Handheld Jammer now disables lights and visual effects on the GDPIS and MP-APS while they are jammed. The PowerPulse Defibrillator discharge sequence now completes fully before the gadget is removed when out of ammo. TRCRv2 Tracer Darts are now temporarily disabled when the attached vehicle activates countermeasures, or when a friendly player has an active Handheld Jammer nearby. WEAPONS: Angled Grips on the M16A4 and RPK-74M now apply the intended recoil reduction values. Hollow Point and Synthetic Tip Ammo descriptions now correctly reflect their lower penetration values. L115 iron sight attachment cost increased from 5 to 15, bringing it in line with other Bolt-Action Rifles. M2010 5-round magazine now sits correctly in third-person view. M45A1 and Vz.61 sidearms now use Subsonic Ammo by default. M87A1 magazine tubes no longer become invisible in third-person view. Speedloader attachments now play the correct animation in third-person view. The Extended Fast Magazine on the L115 now uses the correct 3D asset. The PP-19 no longer clips through the character model while in the Loadout screen. The Taclight-Hip icon now displays correctly. Thermal Scopes no longer cause sudden full-screen brightness spikes while playing on Eastwood. Updated the description of the L115 32” Custom Extended Barrel to display the correct weight value. USG-90 hip-fire weapon position has been lowered to reduce how much screen space it occupies. Weapon and camera sway no longer becomes disabled after firing and zooming in quick succession. Weapon parts now appear correctly in the Customization menu and when viewed as loot on the ground. AK-205 AK-205 314mm Fluted Barrel icon now better reflects the attachment model. AK-205 barrel icons now display correctly. AK-205 ergonomic attachments now correctly update weapon stat values. M16A4 M16A4 Carry Handle Iron Sight naming now displays correctly. M16A4 Carry Handle Iron Sight no longer disconnects from the weapon when reloading or rotating quickly. M16A4 Flip-Up Iron Sight naming now displays correctly. M16A4 single-fire behaviour in third-person now ejects one shell casing per shot. M16A4 third-person reload animations now correctly press the magazine catch and release. RPK-74M RPK-74M Ballistic Tip attachment cost set to 20. RPK-74M soldier finger animation now behaves correctly after firing a single shot. RPK-74M third-person crouch pose no longer hyperextends when using underbarrel grips. RPK-74M third-person prone pose no longer clips the hand through the magazine. Bolt-Action Rifles Sweet Spot Bolt-Action Rifle sweet spot ranges have been narrowed, requiring more intentional positioning by the shooter and making it easier for targets to traverse. L115 sweet spot range decreased from 120-175m to 100-133m. M2010 ESR sweet spot range decreased from 75-120m to 75-100m. PSR sweet spot range decreased from 100-150m to 90-120m. SV-98 sweet spot range decreased from 54-90m to 54-75m. WEAPON BALLISTIC CHANGES: To make long-range engagements more engaging, we've adjusted projectile physics across most primary weapons. Bullets now travel slightly slower and lose speed more quickly over distance, increasing the importance of leading moving targets and rewarding precision aim. Bullet Drag has been increased by 40% across all weapons and by 100% when using Match Grade ammo. Muzzle Velocity reduced for most primary weapons.

Our goal is to make longer-range gunfights require players to lead their shots more consistently against moving targets, while also improving survivability for players on the receiving end. Players will now notice greater projectile travel time at range, but they will also be paired with more predictable recoil control during sustained/prolonged engagements allowing for more situations to define your scenario through skill. Damage Multipliers To better reward skill and mastery, average Time to Kill (TTK) has been slowed down without affecting the best possible TTK. Damage to limbs and lower torso has been reduced for all weapon classes except shotguns and sidearms. This change generally increases the amount of shots to kill by one when hitting these areas multiple times but landing headshots will compensate for the lower damage dealt to limbs and lower torso. In most engagements, this means that players that are more intentional about keeping their aim at the chest or at the head of their target will be more likely to win a gunfight. To maintain weapon balance and consistency, recoil for automatic weapons has also been adjusted, headshot multipliers for automatic weapons have been slightly increased, and base damage values have received minor adjustments. Automatic Weapons Damage Multipliers: Head: Increased from 1.34x, 1.5x, 1.75x to 1.4x, 1.57x, 1.8x (depending on headshot ammo type) Chest: Unchanged (1x) except against armor where the damage is now decreased from 1x to 0.84x Stomach: Decreased from 1x to 0.84x Limbs: Decreased from 1x to 0.84x DMRs Damage Multipliers: Head: Unchanged (1.34x, 1.5x, 1.75x) Chest: Unchanged (1x) except against armor where the damage is now decreased from 1x to 0.91x Stomach: Decreased from 1x to 0.91x Limbs: Decreased from 1x to 0.91x Sniper Rifles Damage Multipliers: Head: Unchanged (1.75x) Chest: Unchanged (1x) except against armor where the damage is now decreased from 0.8x to 0.67x Stomach: Decreased from 0.8x to 0.67x Limbs: Decreased from 0.8x to 0.67x Weapon Dispersion Dispersion has been adjusted to make firing behaviour more demanding for most weapons. It remains more forgiving for weapons with very low damage output, while weapons with medium to high damage output now require greater reliance on proper shooting technique and weapon mastery. Weapons with higher damage output now experience a more aggressive increase in dispersion, especially immediately after the first shot. This places greater emphasis on burst firing or single firing when engaging at extended ranges. Lower damage output weapons are affected less, and in some cases may have slightly reduced dispersion growth. On average, dispersion growth has increased by 14%. Weapons with the highest damage output can receive up to a 22% dispersion increase. Weapons with the lowest damage output can receive up to a 48% dispersion growth reduction, with smaller differences in absolute terms. MAPS & MODES: Capture points can now be pinged correctly. M-COM “Destroyed Support” events now trigger correctly.

Water no longer flickers when viewed from a distance. PROGRESSION: Nightfall Hardware Challenge 1 now calculates vehicle damage progress consistently, preventing cases where vehicle damage could count higher than the value shown on screen. Updated several Challenges to support “OR” completion requirements, giving players multiple valid ways to complete the listed objective.

Apex Legends™: Overclocked Midseason Patch Notes
INTRO Welcome back to Overclocked Split 2! To start the latter half of the season, we’re bringing Legend balancing changes, new shotgun hop-ups, and various fixes and improvements that we think you’re going to like a lot. With all these changes landing on June 23rd, it’s the perfect time to grab your squad and dive into Overclocked! ANTI-CHEAT UPDATE We cannot overstate the value we put on competitive integrity in Apex Legends; hopefully you’ve seen our incremental and seasonal recap account ban updates. We have also been working hard behind the scenes to eradicate less conventional hacks. This season, we implemented detection for a reverse speed hack, preventing cheaters from freezing themselves mid-air for long stretches of time. Additionally, we identified and resolved numerous exploits that could be used to take down servers. Combatting cheaters is a constant cat and mouse game, as such, we are not always able to discuss all the things we’re working on, lest we tip our hand to bad actors. Rest assured, we are committed to making Apex Legends the cleanest it can possibly be, and we are working on things that we’re excited to be able to share with you soon. Please continue to report suspected cheaters, your reports help inform our anti-cheat work! PATCH NOTES LEGENDS BALLISTIC Dev Note: Ballistic has been strong in the past but after a bunch of nerfs he’s fallen close to the bottom in pickrate. We wanted to bring some of his power back but we understand he was pretty frustrating to fight against in his prime. This goal with his Tactical buff is to bring back some of the previous numbers but we wanted to add more counterplay options for the victims. The speed boost on the Ultimate was also very powerful but it could make Ballistic’s team very difficult to fight. Instead, we’re only giving a sprint boost which should still allow for fast pushes as a team but not a speed advantage during the fight. Passive Ballistic now respawns with his Sling weapon in all game modes. Tactical Overheat now only applies to one weapon. If a player has a weapon out when hit by Whistler the overheat debuff applies only to that weapon. If the player is unarmed when hit by Whistler it applies to the weapon in the first weapon slot. Overheat no longer degrades when not firing or swapping to another weapon. Overheat does not increment when swapping to another weapon and shooting. Overheat damage increased from 15 to 50. Overheat debuff duration increased from 12 to 15. Tactical charges increased from 1 to 2. Decreased time between firing and when homing activates. The overheat debuff no longer re-applies if you hit someone who is already overheating and you cannot apply it to multiple guns on the same player. Ultimate Ballistic and teammates within range get a sprint boost when his Ultimate is activated. (Previously only Ballistic got a speed boost) Sprint boost will only apply a speed boost while sprinting and will not speed up other types of movement. Upgrades Level 2 Extra Bullet: Gain an additional Tactical charge. Trap Mode: When placed in the world, Ballistic’s KTactical lasts 15 seconds and deals 35 damage if an enemy walks into it. Level 3 Quiet Time: Ballistic’s Tactical no longer applies overheat. Instead it adds silence and slow on hit. It also has a longer cooldown. Killing Time: Now moved to level 3, still provides a 15 second extension to Ballistic’s Ultimate. PATHFINDER Dev Note: Your favourite friendly robot has been a bit outclassed by other skirmishers. We wanted to touch the uptime on his abilities to help him keep pace and improve his Upgrades to be more in line with other Legends that get perks from other classes. Passive Pathfinder now tucks in his legs while riding horizontal ziplines. This should make him a little harder to hit when riding on his Ultimate and other ziplines in the world. Tactical Tactical charges increased from 1 to 2. Removed the progressive cooldown and it is now a flat 20 seconds. Ultimate Increased launch speed of the zipline projectile. Reduced cooldown from 3 minutes to 2 minutes. Upgrades Level 2 Field Research: Now grants all Recon perks instead of just the survey beacon scan. Ringmaster: Now grants all Controller perks instead of just the ring console access. Level 3 Landing Gear: Grants more air control and faster recovery from hard landings. This replaces the 2 Tactical charges Upgrade. SEER Dev Note: Seer saw a bit of an uptick after his last set of buffs but has settled back down toward the bottom. He is, however, seeing some play in higher Ranked lobbies so we know he has potential. For this update we focused on quality of life buffs. We’ve done a pass on making his Passive and Tactical more responsive. Passive Increased the activation speed of the heartbeat sensor. Decreased the interval time between heartbeats. Decreased activation time for unarmed ADSing Made the delay when aiming more consistent between weapon and unarmed. This means the heartbeat sensor will appear at the same time regardless of the weapon you’re using. Tactical Reduced the delay between the launch and hit. Improved the slow on hit, should now halt faster moving Legends more effectively. Ultimate Upon deployment, there is now a quick 2 second scan of the area which will highlight any enemy in the area. Enemies that enter the area after it’s deployed will also be scanned for 2 seconds. Cloaked enemies will now show footsteps if they are within the Ultimate zone. AXLE Dev Note: Axle has undeniably pushed the pace of play. With these nerfs, we want to target areas that cause the most frustration while staying true to her identity as an aggressive lateral speedster with team utility. Considering the popularity of her “Super Slider” upgrade, her Tactical has simply been available too frequently, nullifying much of the risk that should be considered when overextending. We also saw an opportunity to add some agency to Kickstart victims, when evading or destroying the drone simply isn’t an option. From 5/29 Hotfix: Tactical Reduced max in-world count from 3 to 2. Reduced hp from 150 to 100. 29.1: Passive/Tactical Knocked players can no longer slide across zip codes as Axle or while under the effect of a Nitro Gate. They can still boost through a Nitro Gate, but once the effect times out, they will slow down accordingly. Upgrades "Super Slider" Upgrade no longer grants a second Tactical charge. Instead, it now grants Nitro Gate a 5 second cooldown reduction and +1 max in-world count. Ultimate Kickstart now displaces victims on a parabolic arc based on their velocity at the moment of impact, instead of straight up. Reduced enemy highlight duration slightly to better match stun duration. MAD MAGGIE Dev note: Maggie has been a top performer for a while and, with the rise of Gibby, she’s seeing even more play. She is doing a lot and her Tactical is completely controlling the battlefield. Her Ultimate creates an issue similar to previous-era-Ballistic, where the added speed boost is making players very difficult to lock down. In this case, we’re introducing a series of nerfs to bring her pick rate down to a more healthy space. Tactical Increased Cooldown from 22 seconds to 28 seconds. Ultimate The speed boost granted from running on the pucks dropped by the wrecking ball has been replaced by a sprint boost. Will no longer speed up all movement, just when sprinting. VALKYRIE Dev note: Valkyrie is becoming one of the top picked Legends and has been performing really well over the last few seasons. We are making a minor adjustment to help assuage frustrations and manage her climbing pickrate. We understand this doesn’t address other aspects of her kit that are strong, but we are continuing to monitor her match data and will make additional changes if necessary. Passive Removed the recent improvement, which allowed her to land faster from skydiving. CONDUIT Dev note: Since her changes at the beginning of Season 29, Conduit spiked to the top of the pick rates and remained at that spot several weeks later. We’re so excited to see that players have really felt the improvements to Conduit’s supportive agency and playmaking potential. However, we recognize that she has been a key enabler of Legends that push the meta in an extremely aggressive way. Additionally, her dominance crowds out all other Support Legends, making her an obvious pick. Finally, she was present in 8 of the top 10 most popular team compositions. All of these indicators point to an unhealthy balance state and, as a result, we want to take steps to slow things down a bit. From 5/29 Hotfix: Tactical Decreased Regen Rate from 15/s to 10/s Increased Regen Duration from 6s to 8s Decreased Ally Total Regen from 90 to 80 Decreased Conduit Total Regen from 60 to 56 Upgrades Level 3 Instant Barrier: Increased Regen Duration from 4s to 6s 29.1: Tactical Increased Cooldown from 27 seconds to 30 seconds Upgrades Level 3 Enduring Barrier: No longer grants regen through ring damage LOOT & ATTACHMENTS WEAPONS Dev Note: The Hemlok Breach AR has stayed pretty dominant in the meta since its release, even through a few rounds of adjustments. Its damage per magazine has always been pretty generous, so the following change aims to tone down the dominance at higher tiers. Hemlok Breach AR White magazine reduced from 21 to 20 Blue magazine reduced from 24 to 22 Purple and gold magazines reduced from 27 to 25 EVA-8 Small increase to handling speed. Mozambique Small increase to handling speed. LOCKED HOP-UPS Dev Note: We’re introducing a new hop-up and juggling around another, for all the information about why check out our latest edition of Designer’s Notes. Executioner [NEW] Available on: Peacekeeper and Mastiff Knocking an enemy with the weapon grants 50 shield regeneration over 10 seconds 375 points to unlock Dual Shell Removed from: Mastiff Disruptor Rounds Removed from: Peacekeeper Graffiti Mod Removed from: Longbow DMR, Wingman and Mozambique Added to: Flatline and Volt Dev Note: It’s been a while since Nemesis has seen some updates from us, so it’s time… Turbo Nemi has arrived.

You will still see your team on the Your Squad screen then immediately load into the dropship. Dev Note: Because the information provided on the Champion Squad screen is set by other players, it is prone to be misleading and often results in increased player frustrations when loading into a match. Thus, we are removing this step from the match flow and are actively working towards a better representation of seasonal player skill to serve as an improved way to evaluate the opponents you are about to face, especially if they are at or near the top of the lobby. As always, we want to hear your feedback about whether this helps or hinders how you evaluate your opponents in Ranked. BUG FIXES Fixed issue where bots would never loot weapons.
