TR - Patch note preview & more! : FPS / MMORPG / RTS Discussion

For those of you who may not check the official site on a regular basis have no fear as we snag the eye popping news clips for you! This weekends wrapup includes a sneak peek at the next patch, as well as giving biotechs, medics and exo's some peace of mind:

Patch Note Preview for 1.5
* PvP Safe Regions have been added to persistent maps. When a player dies due to PvP damage they can select to respawn at a PvP Safe Region. Doing so will allow them to respawn with a PvP immunity buff which negates all damage to the player from PvP for a short time. This buff can also be removed by leaving the Safe Region, usually defined by landmarks and or walls. The Safe Regions are displayed with a distinctive icon on the map, mini map, and hospital selection screen. Additionally the player receives a status update when they are immune to PvP damage and when the immunity expires.

* Special gift items (like Halloween Masks and special hats) may now be placed into a player's footlocker.

Known Issue - Armor Penetration
We've identified an issue with armor penetration working incorrectly when using weapons such as the Injector Guns. We're currently working on a resolution for this issue.
