All servers will come down for maintenance at 6:00 AM PDT (3:00 PM CEST) for game update 12. Downtime is anticipated to be less than 2 hours. Players may note the following changes:
GU13 Patch Notes (http://planetside.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Luperza/Server_Downtime_for_Game_Update_13_July_24,2013_6A M_PDT_(3PM_CEST))
General Game Updates
Automated Server Recommendations
Recommended servers work well to funnel new players on to the servers that could use the extra population, but we need to make that process smarter and automated. We made some improvements in GU12, but there were still some more things that we thought would be useful to do. As such, we’ve made the following improvements to the way this works on the backend:
The recommended server surfaced at character select is now automatically chosen based on these criteria, in order:
Empire Population – favoring the server with the lowest percentage average population for the empire selected in the last 24 hours
Server Population – favoring the server with the lowest overall population for the last 24 hours per region
These changes should have no direct impact on players beyond the effects that come from providing more responsive recommendation system.
Alert Experience
Alert empire rewards are now proportional to the amount of time you participated in the alert. Only characters that participate throughout the entire duration of the alert will receive the full empire reward. This participation time is specific to individual characters (i.e. it’s not account-wide).
Improved Respawn Logic for Lattice-Enabled Continents
Updated facility respawn options to fall in line with the following:
All friendly facilities within one lattice-link to the region the player died/redeployed, including the current region.
If there are multiple friendly linked facilities then the player can respawn at any of them.
Nearest Major Facility (Tech plant, Bio lab, Amp Station) by lattice-links, if not already satisfied by #1
“Nearest” is determined by lattice link distance from the player’s current region.
The player’s faction Warpgate Facility
The above is in addition to any reinforcements needed, Sunderers, and squad spawn options that may be available. No changes have been made to those spawn options. No changes have been made to non-Lattice enabled continents.
These changes should allow players to always fall back to any linked friendly facility. It also allows players who have multiple access points to a region to respawn at any of those access points. All players in a region can always fall back to their nearest major facility (if they have one) as a local rally point or for access to vehicles.
Interactive Tutorial Changes
The following changes have been made to the Interactive Tutorial:
A few more seconds have been added before the Tutorial starts after entering the zone. This is to allow more time for loading and avoid situations where the tutorial skips too far ahead.
The equipment terminals have been removed from the mini-spawn room at the Redeploy step. These were unnecessary and distracted new players.
The spawn door shield has been changed to hostile and now blocks progress at the Redeploy step. This shield functions like the shooting range shield and will drop automatically when players respawn.
A teleporter has been added to the beginning of the Tutorial as a shortcut to the mini-spawn room. This teleporter only appears when players reach the Redeploy step. This is to give players who accidentally spawn at the start of the tutorial a quick way back to the mini-spawn room. If this occurs the tutorial will also direct the player to that teleporter and halt further progress of the tutorial until the player returns to the mini-spawn room.
The Redeploy and Instant Action toggles can no longer be cancelled while in the Tutorial. This is to prevent accidental cancellations of instant action and redeploy if a player happens to hit it twice so they can see it is a countdown and not instantaneous.
The Generator Overload and Warpgate terminal steps now detect when a player is in a vehicle and updates the floating help to show the Exit Vehicle keybind in case the player missed how to leave the vehicle in the previous vehicle driving step.
The Warpgate Terminal floating help text has been updated to provide better instruction to the player.
The ammo depot waypoint now points to the Ammo Depot itself instead of the road in front of it.
Improved the freshness of the continent population check at the Warpgate Terminal step. This should reduce chances where players are directed to a continent with a queue. The tutorial will highlight the continent with the highest population without a queue for that player’s faction.
XP Changes with Suicides
When an enemy soldier dies from a suicide or logs out, the last player to damage the player (within 10 seconds) will be awarded the kill. This also applies to characters inside of vehicles.
New in the Depot
New Weapons
NS-7 PDW SMG: This SMG has a lower damage drop-off than all the other SMGs, allowing it to perform well at short and medium ranges. Its low recoil and very quick center speed (fastest in the class) allow those with good burst control to extend its range even further.
NC LA3 Desperado Pistol: This 2x burst pistol has a fast burst but slower overall rate of fire. The fast burst mixed with moderate damage makes this pistol a solid choice at close range, though low accuracy will limit its effectiveness at range.
TR TS2 Inquisitor: Equipped with an extended magazine by default, this pistol gives the TR a solid all-around option that has very high sustainability and damage output per magazine.
VS Cerberus: High upfront damage mixed with an above average rate of fire for that damage class makes this pistol a good choice at close range. Low accuracy will limit the pistol‘s effectiveness at range.
New Camos
Seven new camos now available, including the Grey Scales Camo in the Early Access section.
New Bundles
Our most popular camos are now bundled together at a reduced price
Get our most popular loadouts for each vehicle and infantry class with new Pro Bundles

Default cannons have been re-tuned. Some adjustments have been done to the empire specific characteristics and some are across the board.
New Descriptions:
“The Saron Laser Cannon is the standard air superiority nose cannon for the VS Scythe. Its specialized rounds can be reloaded quickly and travel faster than standard rounds.”
“The M20 Mustang is the standard air superiority nose cannon for the NC Reaver. Its high caliber rounds allow it to do more damage up close and at range.”
“The M18 Needler is the standard air superiority nose cannon for the TR Mosquito. Its small caliber rounds allow it to sustain fire for longer and at a higher fire rate.”
Fire rates have been slowed. Mosquito retains the fastest fire rate.
Saron Laser Cannon: Fire Rate reduced from 732 RPM to 706 RPM
M20 Mustang: Fire Rate remains at 667 RPM
M18 Needler: Fire Rate reduced from 800 RPM to 750 RPM
Magazine sizes increased. The sustained fire of these cannons should be longer than before. The Needler gains a larger clip and can sustain fire the longest.
Saron Laser Cannon: Magazine size increased from 50 to 60
Magazine Size certifications reduced from 6/9/12/15 to 2/5/7/10
Ammo Capacity Increased from 600 to 720

“The Vortek Rotary is a high damage, close range cannon that can unload rounds quickly. Its high caliber rounds allow it to do more damage up close and at range. NC use only.”
“The M18 Rotary is a high damage, close range cannon that can unload rounds quickly. Its small caliber rounds allow it to sustain fire for longer and at a higher fire rate. TR use only.”
Fire rates have been slowed across the board. Damage increased so TTK remains near the same.
Hailstorm Turbo Laser: Fire Rate reduced from 1200 RPM to 857 RPM

Esamir Lattice and Facility Enhancement
The lattice system already in use on Indar is now active on Esamir.
Nearly every facility and outpost was been enhanced or in some cases completely replaced to help create better gameplay flow and support the addition of the lattice connections on the continent.
Added two new outposts, The Rink, and Rime Analytics

All servers will come down for maintenance at 6:00 AM PDT (3:00 PM CEST) for game update 12. Downtime is anticipated to be less than 2 hours. Players may note the following changes:
GU13 Patch Notes (http://planetside.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Luperza/Server_Downtime_for_Game_Update_13_July_24,2013_6A M_PDT_(3PM_CEST))
General Game Updates
Automated Server Recommendations
Recommended servers work well to funnel new players on to the servers that could use the extra population, but we need to make that process smarter and automated. We made some improvements in GU12, but there were still some more things that we thought would be useful to do. As such, we’ve made the following improvements to the way this works on the backend:
The recommended server surfaced at character select is now automatically chosen based on these criteria, in order:
Empire Population – favoring the server with the lowest percentage average population for the empire selected in the last 24 hours
Server Population – favoring the server with the lowest overall population for the last 24 hours per region
These changes should have no direct impact on players beyond the effects that come from providing more responsive recommendation system.
Alert Experience
Alert empire rewards are now proportional to the amount of time you participated in the alert. Only characters that participate throughout the entire duration of the alert will receive the full empire reward. This participation time is specific to individual characters (i.e. it’s not account-wide).
Improved Respawn Logic for Lattice-Enabled Continents
Updated facility respawn options to fall in line with the following:
All friendly facilities within one lattice-link to the region the player died/redeployed, including the current region.
If there are multiple friendly linked facilities then the player can respawn at any of them.
Nearest Major Facility (Tech plant, Bio lab, Amp Station) by lattice-links, if not already satisfied by #1
“Nearest” is determined by lattice link distance from the player’s current region.
The player’s faction Warpgate Facility
The above is in addition to any reinforcements needed, Sunderers, and squad spawn options that may be available. No changes have been made to those spawn options. No changes have been made to non-Lattice enabled continents.
These changes should allow players to always fall back to any linked friendly facility. It also allows players who have multiple access points to a region to respawn at any of those access points. All players in a region can always fall back to their nearest major facility (if they have one) as a local rally point or for access to vehicles.
Interactive Tutorial Changes
The following changes have been made to the Interactive Tutorial:
A few more seconds have been added before the Tutorial starts after entering the zone. This is to allow more time for loading and avoid situations where the tutorial skips too far ahead.
The equipment terminals have been removed from the mini-spawn room at the Redeploy step. These were unnecessary and distracted new players.
The spawn door shield has been changed to hostile and now blocks progress at the Redeploy step. This shield functions like the shooting range shield and will drop automatically when players respawn.
A teleporter has been added to the beginning of the Tutorial as a shortcut to the mini-spawn room. This teleporter only appears when players reach the Redeploy step. This is to give players who accidentally spawn at the start of the tutorial a quick way back to the mini-spawn room. If this occurs the tutorial will also direct the player to that teleporter and halt further progress of the tutorial until the player returns to the mini-spawn room.
The Redeploy and Instant Action toggles can no longer be cancelled while in the Tutorial. This is to prevent accidental cancellations of instant action and redeploy if a player happens to hit it twice so they can see it is a countdown and not instantaneous.
The Generator Overload and Warpgate terminal steps now detect when a player is in a vehicle and updates the floating help to show the Exit Vehicle keybind in case the player missed how to leave the vehicle in the previous vehicle driving step.
The Warpgate Terminal floating help text has been updated to provide better instruction to the player.
The ammo depot waypoint now points to the Ammo Depot itself instead of the road in front of it.
Improved the freshness of the continent population check at the Warpgate Terminal step. This should reduce chances where players are directed to a continent with a queue. The tutorial will highlight the continent with the highest population without a queue for that player’s faction.
XP Changes with Suicides
When an enemy soldier dies from a suicide or logs out, the last player to damage the player (within 10 seconds) will be awarded the kill. This also applies to characters inside of vehicles.
New in the Depot
New Weapons
NS-7 PDW SMG: This SMG has a lower damage drop-off than all the other SMGs, allowing it to perform well at short and medium ranges. Its low recoil and very quick center speed (fastest in the class) allow those with good burst control to extend its range even further.
NC LA3 Desperado Pistol: This 2x burst pistol has a fast burst but slower overall rate of fire. The fast burst mixed with moderate damage makes this pistol a solid choice at close range, though low accuracy will limit its effectiveness at range.
TR TS2 Inquisitor: Equipped with an extended magazine by default, this pistol gives the TR a solid all-around option that has very high sustainability and damage output per magazine.
VS Cerberus: High upfront damage mixed with an above average rate of fire for that damage class makes this pistol a good choice at close range. Low accuracy will limit the pistol‘s effectiveness at range.

Vehicle Updates
Empire Specific Fighter Updates
Default cannons have been re-tuned. Some adjustments have been done to the empire specific characteristics and some are across the board.
New Descriptions:
“The Saron Laser Cannon is the standard air superiority nose cannon for the VS Scythe. Its specialized rounds can be reloaded quickly and travel faster than standard rounds.”
“The M20 Mustang is the standard air superiority nose cannon for the NC Reaver. Its high caliber rounds allow it to do more damage up close and at range.”
“The M18 Needler is the standard air superiority nose cannon for the TR Mosquito. Its small caliber rounds allow it to sustain fire for longer and at a higher fire rate.”
Fire rates have been slowed. Mosquito retains the fastest fire rate.
Saron Laser Cannon: Fire Rate reduced from 732 RPM to 706 RPM
M20 Mustang: Fire Rate remains at 667 RPM
M18 Needler: Fire Rate reduced from 800 RPM to 750 RPM
Magazine sizes increased. The sustained fire of these cannons should be longer than before. The Needler gains a larger clip and can sustain fire the longest.
Saron Laser Cannon: Magazine size increased from 50 to 60
Magazine Size certifications reduced from 6/9/12/15 to 2/5/7/10
Ammo Capacity Increased from 600 to 720
Ammo Capacity certifications remains 60 per rank
M20 Mustang: Magazine size increased from 50 to 55
Magazine Size certifications reduced from 6/9/12/15 to 2/5/7/10

Magazine Size certifications reduced from 6/9/12/15 to 2/5/7/10
Ammo Capacity Increased from 600 to 900
Ammo Capacity certifications increased from 60 per rank to 75 per rank.
Damage has been adjusted to offset the fire rate reduction and to make the TTKs more even. Reaver retains the highest damage but also kills slightly faster.
Saron Laser Cannon: Max damage increased from 325 to 340
M20 Mustang: Max damage remains at 400 (as fire rate was not changed)
M18 Needler: Max damage increased from 300 to 315
Damage fall-off has been added. Fall off for the Reaver starts at a farther range.
Saron Laser Cannon

Minimum damage inflicted beyond 325 meters
Minimum damage is 255
M20 Mustang
Inflicts maximum damage up to 225 meters
Minimum damage inflicted beyond 350 meters

Rotary cannons have been re-tuned. Some adjustments have been done to the empire specific characteristics and some are across the board.
New Descriptions:
“The Hailstorm is a high damage, close range cannon that can unload rounds quickly. Its specialized rounds can be reloaded quickly and travel faster than standard rounds. VS use only.”
“The Vortek Rotary is a high damage, close range cannon that can unload rounds quickly. Its high caliber rounds allow it to do more damage up close and at range. NC use only.”
“The M18 Rotary is a high damage, close range cannon that can unload rounds quickly. Its small caliber rounds allow it to sustain fire for longer and at a higher fire rate. TR use only.”
Fire rates have been slowed across the board. Damage increased so TTK remains near the same.
Hailstorm Turbo Laser: Fire Rate reduced from 1200 RPM to 857 RPM
Vortek Rotary: Fire Rate reduced from 1000 RPM to 750 RPM
M18 Rotary: Fire Rate reduced from 1500 RPM to 1000 RPM
