LTM Rules and Gameplay[]
Due to this being a “large squad” mode, Profile Stats are not tracked. Daily & Weekly challenges still work, with the exception of the Squad-based challenges (‘Place Top 6 in Squads’, etc.). 50v50 was removed on October 17, 2018.
Storm and Map[]
- Each team has a bus, approaching the island from opposite directions. On the map, the friendly bus has a blue outline, enemy has red. The path lines of the bus also have the same colors. The enemy bus has a red path line and friendly is also blue.
- The map has a dotted line, which indicates the "battle lines" between the two teams. Crossing the line will make running into enemies more likely.
- Final storm circle visible on minimap at start.
- Players have 10 minutes to loot the map as the storm closes in on the circle, then 5 minutes to fight, and another 5 minutes as the storm shrinks to the end.
- Supply drops come in batches of 3-6, fall every two minutes, and only land in the final storm circle.
- Added dotted line to map, which indicates the "battle lines" between the two teams. Crossing the line will make running into enemies more likely.
- Friendly players can be seen in the map with a blue marker and shown as a blue arrow. The 3 people in your squad will be shown with their colors instead of Friendly blue.
- Due to this being a "large squad" mode, Profile Stats will not be tracked. Daily & Weekly challenges will still work, with the exception of the Squad-based challenges.
Changes[]
- Performance
- Various server performance improvements focused on the 50v50 LTM.
- This time around 50v50 will have:
- Double normal Dual Pistol spawn rate
- Double bounce pads spawns
- +50% resource rates
- 50v50 v2 storms
- 50v50 V3
- A new, larger Storm circle has been added to the beginning of the match.
- Extra supply drops fall in the new circle, giving more players a chance to find an open one.
- Supply drops now come in batches of 4-8 (up from 3-6), fall every two minutes, and only lands in the first two Storm circles.
- The damage applied over time while in the Down But Not Out state has been changed to the default of 2 damage per tick.
- Bonus resources earned from farming reduced from +75% to +25%.
- The Storm circles are now more likely to bias towards the center of the map, this helps make the bus flight path less important.
- We've removed the vaulted weapons (crossbow, guided missile) and impulse grenades the 50v50 LTM. We've also added the new delicious apples from today's 4.2 update in the LTM!
- 50v50 V2 Adjustments
- DBNO (Down But Not Out) damage per tick lowered from 10 to 5.
- Chest spawn rate increased from 50-70% to 75-90%.
- Final circle is shortened from 5 minutes to 3 minutes.
- This last circle exists for 60 seconds before gradually closing in over an additional 60 seconds.
- 50v50 V2 Adjustments
- ⛈️The storm will now deal 10 damage per tick for all ring phases. ⛈️
- This change was made to improve gameplay flow - we noticed that a high number of matches were resolving with a team healing while in the Storm, rather than resolving due to the normal pace of combat.
- ⛈️The storm will now deal 10 damage per tick for all ring phases. ⛈️
