Premier Updates
- We have added a waiting period between phone number verification attempts. If you experience any issues verifying your phone number, please contact Player Support.
Social Media Updates
- Voice Indicators
We've made some updates to the voice indicators that appear above a Character's head. You'll now be able to see more clearly who you can hear and who you can't. The voice icon will now also indicate when a teammate is silent or disconnected from voice, and will differentiate when a party member is speaking in the party voice. The icon for party voice activity remains unchanged.
Bug Fixes
- Character
Fixed an issue where the cover walls in the Iso (X) Execution Mission would not appear when playing with an unstable network connection.
- Game Systems
Multi-speaker audio formats such as 5.1 and 7.1 are now fully supported. Stereo mixing is not affected.
- Premier
References to the team creation deadline have been removed from the program. There are still some references to the team creation deadline that are no longer valid. We apologize for the inconvenience!
The queue button now displays the correct error message when a player has reached their weekly match limit.
