Continent Locking

Continent Lock bonuses now persist until the continent is locked by another faction

Vehicle Direct Deploy

Players may now summon and spawn directly into a vehicle from the redeploy screen, as if they had used the vehicle terminal in person. If the base is contested, or if the vehicle terminals are hacked or destroyed, this option will be disabled. Only the player’s first vehicle loadout will be used for this method of vehicle spawning.

Construction purchases made with Daybreak Cash will now unlock across ALL FACTIONS. Anyone who has already purchased construction items from one faction with DBC will be granted the same item on any missing factions. If you purchased construction items of the same type for multiple factions, we'll be refunding the DBC for those extra purchases.

We will run these grants and refunds as soon as possible, and it will require some server downtime to do so. Keep an eye out for more info over the next few days.

Gameplay Additions

Nanite Systems Export series

A new lineup of weaponry is currently in development by the talented engineers at Nanite Systems. These weapons are designed with the skillful soldiers of Auraxis in mind, and will prove both difficult and rewarding to use. A new directive line dedicated to this series may be found in the Weapons directive tree, and the reward for completing the tree will be revealed at a later date. The first weapon available for nano-printing in this new lineup is the NSX Naginata.

NSX Naginata

This light machine gun bases its design on the ergonomics of entrenched heavy soldiers who defend critical firing lanes with suppressive fire. The weapon’s aggressive rate of fire and high caliber rounds can generate challenging vertical recoil, but the Naginata's tailored grip and molded stock allow for minimal side to side shake, and remains comfortable to use even in the most heated situations. A new magazine well with custom fitted drum magazine allows for quicker reloads and high ammunition counts, a crucial component to stymieing enemy offensives.

Havoc, Sigma, and Darkstar Armor Sets

New faction composite armors have been introduced for the Infiltrator, Light Assault, Combat Medic, Engineer, and Heavy Assault classes. You can find these new armor bundles in the depot.

Freedom Fighter Helmet

By community request, the New Conglomerate helmet from the original PlanetSide 2 promotional material has made its way into the game.
