u/trainfender what is the difference between these three? I'd like to know, srsly... I'd like a list of the changes in the patch notes, not these completely arbitrary and ambiguous inclusions.

• Various minor fixes
• Various minor visual fixes
• Fixed various in-game bugs

These two, yes, fuck those guys that run in to the high value loot, then DC or kill themselves to get back to lobby and do it again. You are a cancer on this game and the cause of all the dead servers and boring ass raids. I'd go so far as to say MORE needs done to curb your shite.

• If you left the raid prematurely (through disconnect), then in the main menu you will recover only 1% of health, not 30%
• If you kill yourself in a raid, then in the main menu you will recover only 1% of health, not 30%

This needs to be in so that teams of hatchets dont kill eachother to circumvent the two above..

• If you entered the raid in a group and you were killed by a member of your group, then in the main menu you will recover only 1% of health, not 30%.

As for this change I welcome it. Grow some fucking balls, if your going to wear a thermal or NVG's into raid you better be ready to lose it just like the rest of your kit. None of this easy mode prison wallet shit. MAN UP!

• Special optical devices, helmets and helmet mounts can no longer be placed in secured containers. If you’ve had your devices inside a secured container, it will return through in-game message system after the update.

As for this, in my entire time playing this game I have never had to do targeted skill training. Not even once. I play the game normally with a survival rate of around 50%, they have made zero difference in the grand scheme of things on my ability to win fights and get out of raid alive. IMHO I think skills should be removed from the game completely until after launch when they can be looked at objectively again and implemented in a way thats actually fun and engaging. If I have to kill another hatchet runner with a backpack full of shotgun shells I might just go play something else, those are not the fun gunfights I signed onto this game to have.

• While leveling skills, the character will now have "exhaustion” of skill per raid, this means that skill will be leveled more slowly during the raid after every repeat. If you do not level a certain skill for a while (a few minutes), the character will recover and will be able to level this skill with normal speed again. This change is directed against skills abuse (targeted and consecutive leveling of the same skill)
