News 24. Sep 2018 / 14:35 Michael Sosinka

"H1Z1: Battle Royale" wird demnächst auf "Z1: Battle Royale" hören. Der Namenswechsel fällt also nicht all zu dramatisch aus.

Wie Daybreak Games bekannt gegeben hat, wird "H1Z1: Battle Royale" umbenannt. Demnächst müssen wir uns an "Z1: Battle Royale" gewöhnen. Dazu heisst es: "H1Z1 auf dem PC wird bald als Z1: Battle Royale bekannt sein! Diese Version ist der erste grosse Schritt beim Übergang. Das neu formierte Entwicklerteam arbeitete eng mit der Community zusammen, um Funktionen und Änderungen zu priorisieren, die den Titel wieder zum wettbewerbsfähigsten BR-Spiel der Welt machen werden."

In dem Statement ist von der Version 1.0 die Rede, deren Changelog ihr nachfolgend seht.

Gameplay

The AR-15, AK-47, M-9, Shotgun* & Magnum have been adjusted based on their Preseason 3 characteristics:
- Bullet Speed
- Bullet Drop/Drag
- Fire Rate
- Reset Time
- Recoil
- The Shotgun's pellet pattern will remain the same as Season 1 & 2.
- No changes have been made to bleed mechanics or pass through damage.
Other weapons that were not present in Preseason 3, such as the Hellfire and the M40 Sniper Rifle, have not been changed. We want the community's feedback before determining how we will deal with these items.
Weapons that were present during Preseason 3 but have since been removed, such as the 1911 and R380, may be addressed in a later update, pending feedback from the community.
The “Classic Camera” was changed to behave the way it did in Preseason 3 (zoom, shake, lerp, etc…)
The AR-15 firing sound effect from Preseason 3 now plays for the person firing the weapon.
The “muzzle flash” has been removed from the AR-15, AK-47 and Magnum
“Aiming Down Sights”
Players can now aim down sights while jumping and fire accurately.
Players can now shoot while in the process of aiming down sights.
Movement
Jumping is now more responsive so that players should always jump if they press jump while on the ground.
Loosened the ENAS restrictions so that players are less penalized when moving in a way that triggers the system.
Players can now swap seats while a vehicle is moving, as long as it is not accelerating.

Matches

Solos – Game will match players based on account level.
Solos, Duos and Fives now have a maximum lobby time of 135 seconds, as long as there are 2 or more players (down from 8 minutes). Games that start with fewer than 100 players will dynamically adjust the match to accommodate the number of players.
ALL MATCHES WILL COUNT AS RANKED MATCHES.
Spawn selection is turned off for Solos, Duos and Fives.
Spawn selection is still an option for Hosted games.
Starting locations have been tuned to ensure decent looting at start of match, based on gas phase.
Dynamic matches will only have 1 airdrop at a time (instead of 3).
Dynamic matches will start as follows:
- 100+ players: Starts at gas phase 0 (no gas)
- 50-99 players: Starts at gas phase 1
- 30-49 players: Starts at gas phase 2
- 20-29 players: Starts at gas phase 3
- 10-19 players: Starts at gas phase 4
- 2-9 players : Starts at gas phase 5
Your new dev team has really enjoyed playing and testing this feature internally and can't wait to play it with all of you. Jace has by far been the worst player in testing and could barely get 1 kill.
Adjusted the climate weights and set the default time of day to 2pm.
- 90% sunny
- 5% gloomy
- 4% sundown
- 1% nighttime
You can now go to the "gameplay" category in the options menu and choose when you want to see players' names in the Box of Destiny. There are three choices:
Always display nameplates
Only display nameplates when someone is speaking
Never show nameplates
The player will see a 2 minute 15 seconds count down timer preparing for the match in the Box of Destiny. Once the match is ready to start, the timer will jump to a 30 second count down.
