This means you can’t one-shot headshot with it anymore. The headshot damage when using a heavy barrel was brought down from 100+ to 93. The MK 20 SSR marksman rifle was given a nerf as well. The ACR 6.8 was given a few nerfs, including rate of fire, overall time-to-kill, ADS, and sprintout time. The M1911 pistol saw a very slight reduction in the rate of fire, to the point of being almost negligible. The examples given by XclusiveAce show that the RPK-74 saw both its ADS and sprintout time brought from 500ms to 475ms, meanwhile, the M60 saw an increase from 400ms to 525ms and 450ms to 525ms.

Libertad saw changes to its regeneration along with Biovita getting nerfed to only bring you to max health, no overhealing, and heal you at a slower rate. The Libertad faction abilities saw some adjustments, and they’re mostly nerfs. In addition, consoles received a flat 5% increase to aim assist. What this means is improvements to the slowdown areas, directionality, and a fix to issues with aim assist in point blank range. In the meantime, it’s supposed to be more playable now and that’s a big step in the right direction.Īdjustments have been made to aim assist since the XDefiant Closed Beta, affecting what XclusiveAce refers to as “the bubble” around players.
