  • Fixed a Linux dedicated server crash related to AI nav area checks in Coop. 
  • Re-enabled render batching to improve stability on Revolt.

Improvements

  • Scope parallax effect has been adjusted so its quicker and never obstructs the center of crosshairs. 
  • New sprint and crawl animations for pistols and grenades. 
  • New knife animations. 
  • In Push and Strike, each team will have access to different classes depending on if they are attacking or defending. 
  • In Strike, both teams will know where the cache is located at the start of the round. 
  • In Hunt, enemies are now more responsive to a cache being blown up, and hunt players at the end more consistently. 
  • The matchmaking process will now ignore servers you have on your server browser blacklist. 
  • Improved overview art for District, Market, Ministry, Revolt, Siege, and Uprising 
  • Separate crosshair texture for Mosin 7x.

Bug Fixes

Hot Fix March 27, 2015 Changelist 

Stability Fixes

  • Potential fix for font-related crash on the kit menu. 
  • Fixed common coop server crash when a bot was attacking a player that just disconnected.

Improvements

  • Servers in the matchmaking pool now require VAC to be activated. If you are running your server with -insecure, you will not receive any matchmaking traffic. 
  • Implemented global server blacklist. Any servers in the PvP or Competitive playlists running game-breaking plugins (eg. country blocking, kill/damage confirmation with death messages off) will be considered for blacklisting and will no longer receive matchmaking traffic. 
  • Added Ukrainian localization.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed regression where capture progress was not stalling when there were equal numbers of attackers and defenders on a point.

Map Updates

  • Station: 
    • Fixed a few exploits around and at B push. 
    • Fixed several small issues throughout the map.
  • Tell: 
    • Opened up the chokepoint near push objective A on Security side of canal. 
    • Reworked layout of rooms adjacent to push objective B to mitigate route confusion from B to C. 
    • Eliminated jumps up the hill to the left flank of push objective A by smoothing the terrain. 
    • Fixed Security blockzone for push objective B. Insurgents can no longer fire into security spawn above A. 
    • Removed crawlspace under ruins on left flank of push objective B approach. 
    • Other minor fixes.
  • Tell Coop: 
    • Adjusted Security spawns for C and F 
    • Moved cache I
