v13.4.1 (aka the "Quads Are Still Cool" release) has been released to the installer. This is a pretty light patch, let's hop to it.
  
v11.2 (aka the "Heat And Planes" release) has been released to the installer. This patch is largely a feature and bug-fixing patch so let's list it out.  
+
'''NEW MECH:''' The Sirocco, a 95 ton QuadMech with some pretty interesting loadouts, has arrived! Find it largely with House Marik (and in their faction store!), as well as rarely with the Word of Blake and House Liao.
  
'''NEW TANK:''' [[Draconis Combine|House Kurita]] has decided to end the debate as to what is the best artillery vehicle and has fielded the [[Teppo|Teppo Artillery Support Vehicle]]. Devastate the OpFor. Buy one from House Kurita's [[Faction Stores|faction store]] today!
+
'''NEW MECH:''' The Ettin, a 95 ton two-headed FrankenMech, has lumbered into battle. You can get it from a unique event, Two Heads Are Better Than One, that only fires if you are orbiting a Gameworld. Go do some duels and maybe pick it up!
  
'''NEW TANK:''' The [[Marian Hegemony]], in order to honor its benevolent rulers in House O'Reilly, has introduced the [[Testudo]] tank, bringing tactical fire support to the battlefield in damn fine style. They might even sell one to you in their faction store, if you ask nicely.
+
'''UPDATED MECHANIC:''' Battle Armor squads mounted inside of a unit now come with some debuffs. If they can shoot out of the unit (such as with the Dakota or Unnsvin VTOLs), their attacks are now penalized fairly strongly. Any unit carrying BA now is affected by a significant slowdown as it turns out hauling around tons and tons of dudes in suits is heavy, who knew?
  
'''NEW MECHANIC:''' Strafing Runs have come to BTA. Now, using the [[Strafing Run Comm Suite]], you can have mechs direct aerospace fighter strafing runs against your enemies. These work a little like the [[Airdrop Beacons|unit calldown beacons]]: the Strafing Run Comm Suite gives the carrying mech an ability to call a strafing run. When you select the strafing run, you designate a location then drag the cursor to draw the strafing direction. Two iniative phases after you start the strafe, the ASF will fly past and blast targets in the strafing run area. Also like the calldown beacons, you can designate various kinds of ASFs for a strafe by finding and buying ASF contracts (different ASFs carry different weapons) and then by holding shift when selecting the strafe start location, just like a beacon calldown. For a fuller description of how strafing runs work, please see the [[Frequently Asked Questions|FAQ]].  
+
* Narc launchers got a bit of a range buff.
 +
* TAGs have largely had their ranges reduced and have lost their inherent accuracy bonus. This was done to help make Narc more competitive with TAG.
 +
* The DropShip battles can no longer be won by bleedouts. That was an oversight and is now corrected.
 +
* The Forest DesignMask was edited slightly, hovers *may* be a little better off in them, we'll see.
 +
* SAD has been corrected to do what we wanted it to do (it wasn't actually providing accuracy and was instead debuffing the player, which is incorrect).
 +
* SAD has been set to Disabled as the default option, at user request. Setting SAD to disabled also removes all their modifiers, no matter what it *was* at, as you might expect.
  
'''NEW MECHANIC:''' Heat damage has been reduced in effectiveness. Now, mechs have a scaling heat defense based on tonnage. The larger the tonnage, the less effective heat damage is against them. At 20 tons, heat is 5% less effective. At 100 tons, it is 25% less effective (it caps at 25% less effective, so the superheavies are not totally heat-proof). This defense applies only to mechs and works by reducing incoming heat damage by the amount indicated. If you want to calculate any given unit's "heat defense", you can find the percentage by multiplying the mech's tonnage by 0.0025 (example: An [[Emperor]], which is 90 tons, has a heat defense of 22.5%. 90 x 0.0025 is 0.225, or 22.5%). We changed this because heat strategies were overwhelmingly powerful but we didn't want to nerf them into oblivion because we as a team know that many folks really enjoy heat strategies. This will make heat a little less powerful but keeps it viable as a combat tactic.
+
'''IMPORTANT:''' v13.4.1 is an "update" update. In this case, clear your Mods folder manually and then run the installer, it'll do the work for you.
  
'''UPDATED MECHANIC:''' [[Weapons#Artillery|Artillery weapons]], specifically the Thumper, Sniper, Long Tom, [[Weapons#Missile_Artillery|Arrow IV, and Cruise Missile/50]], now have expanded scatter ranges. No longer can you safely target an enemy you're near to and trust that it'll all be fine. It won't all be fine. Use arty like the gods of war intended: from an extreme distance and not near your own guys.
+
'''IMPORTANT:''' v13.4.1 is not a save breaking update, your saves are compatible and will work fine.
  
'''COMMUNITY CONTENT:''' There's a bunch of new [[Community Content|CC]] with this patch: the [[Corsair#COR-MKD|Corsair]]/[[Victor#VTR-MKD|Victor]]/[[Toyama#TYM-MKD|Toyama]]/[[Mackie#MSK-MKD|Mackie-MKD]] (including the new [[Weapons#Magnetic Harpoon|Magnetic Harpoon]] weapon and [[Ammunition#Mortar|Glue Mortar ammunition]]), the [[Von Rohrs#VON-4RH-LAM|Von Rohrs LAM]], the [[Highlander#HGN-IB|Highlander-IB]].
+
'''IMPORTANT:''' You can see v13.4.1's patch notes, as well as any BTA patch notes, on our wiki on this page: https://www.bta3062.com/index.php/Patch_Notes
 
 
* The BTA Live-Fire Exercises now have half the OpFor. Less Danger [[UrbanMech|Urbies]]!
 
* Airburst Mortar ammunition behaves differently now, exploding into a spread of pellets that saturate the target to look for crits.
 
* [[Full_List_of_Vehicles#Assault_Vehicles|Assault-class tanks]] only spawn in shops if you're friendly with that system's owner, so no getting [[Puma|Royal Pumas]] just because you smiled at the [[Word of Blake|WoB]] that one time.
 
* [[:Category:LAM|LAMs]] might be quieter now. Let us know.
 
* There's two new [[Centurion 10|55-ton Centurions]], the -J and -W, just for fun. Thanks, Shrapnel Magazine!
 
* A few [[Gear#Armor|armors]] have had their descriptions clarified slightly.
 
* [[Skills_and_Abilities#Universal_Abilities|Careful Maneuvers]] now works on all units, not just tanks. Nothing will ever be stuck again!
 
* Every* purchasable tank now has a distinct description, hurrah! (*except the carriers because I couldn't think of anything interesting to say about the carriers).
 
* Most [[:Category:Controllable Vehicles|purchasable tanks]] have had their prices increased by between 20-50%. Tanks were too cheap and available, so we made them pricier. They're still vastly cheaper than mechs, but less "lolwhatever" than they used to be.
 
* Some of the weapon carrier tanks have been nerfed, losing [[Gear#TTS|TTSs]] or having their ammos changed around.
 
* The [[Mech_Quirks|Improved Communications quirk]] no longer stacks with itself infinitely.
 
* Good news! You can actually buy the [[Contracts#Permanent_Contract_for_Ravager_BA_Airdrop|Ravager Battle Armor contract]] from the Marians like you were always supposed to be able to do! Sorry about that.
 
* Smoke now has a better icon, hurrah!
 
* The [[Weapons#Gauss|cGauss Rifle]] ignores 2 evasion now and the iGauss Rifle now has a recoil of 2, to balance them against each other slightly.
 
* The [[JàrnFòlk|JarnFolk]] and the [[Hanseatic League]] now have black markets, the JarnFolk on Alborg and the Hansa on Koningsberg, Lubeck, and Lynn.
 
* [[Skills_and_Abilities#Vehicle_Pilot_Abilities|Sideslip]] now properly moves you through forests. Sorry about that.
 
 
 
'''IMPORTANT:''' v11.1 is an "update" update. Run the installer again to let it just update your files and you're set to go. The installer auto-updates the CAB and injects Modtek for you.
 
 
 
'''IMPORTANT:''' v11.1 is not a save breaking update, your saves are compatible and will work fine.

Revision as of 17:45, 19 May 2022

v13.4.1 (aka the "Quads Are Still Cool" release) has been released to the installer. This is a pretty light patch, let's hop to it.

NEW MECH: The Sirocco, a 95 ton QuadMech with some pretty interesting loadouts, has arrived! Find it largely with House Marik (and in their faction store!), as well as rarely with the Word of Blake and House Liao.

NEW MECH: The Ettin, a 95 ton two-headed FrankenMech, has lumbered into battle. You can get it from a unique event, Two Heads Are Better Than One, that only fires if you are orbiting a Gameworld. Go do some duels and maybe pick it up!

UPDATED MECHANIC: Battle Armor squads mounted inside of a unit now come with some debuffs. If they can shoot out of the unit (such as with the Dakota or Unnsvin VTOLs), their attacks are now penalized fairly strongly. Any unit carrying BA now is affected by a significant slowdown as it turns out hauling around tons and tons of dudes in suits is heavy, who knew?

  • Narc launchers got a bit of a range buff.
  • TAGs have largely had their ranges reduced and have lost their inherent accuracy bonus. This was done to help make Narc more competitive with TAG.
  • The DropShip battles can no longer be won by bleedouts. That was an oversight and is now corrected.
  • The Forest DesignMask was edited slightly, hovers *may* be a little better off in them, we'll see.
  • SAD has been corrected to do what we wanted it to do (it wasn't actually providing accuracy and was instead debuffing the player, which is incorrect).
  • SAD has been set to Disabled as the default option, at user request. Setting SAD to disabled also removes all their modifiers, no matter what it *was* at, as you might expect.

IMPORTANT: v13.4.1 is an "update" update. In this case, clear your Mods folder manually and then run the installer, it'll do the work for you.

IMPORTANT: v13.4.1 is not a save breaking update, your saves are compatible and will work fine.

IMPORTANT: You can see v13.4.1's patch notes, as well as any BTA patch notes, on our wiki on this page: https://www.bta3062.com/index.php/Patch_Notes

REMINDER: This update, and others like it, are made possible by my Patreon supporters. Without their support, updates would come slower and be less impactful. If you feel like being a part of the support for BTA, you can find me here: https://www.patreon.com/bloodydoves

REMINDER: Custom mod commissions are still available if you're interested. If you'd like to get your own community content added to BTA DM me, bloodydoves, and we can work something out.
