Horizon returns to deathmatch as the second map. As of right now, zero matches have been able start across all official servers.



This week's update brings buffs to AoE weapons, bringing their ability to destroy a cluster of blast resistant parts on par with their non-AoE counterparts. AoE weapons have a lower maximum damage output to compensate for their tendency to overlap hits or hit multiple valuable parts in one blast. When it comes to blast resistant parts, these qualities offer no advantage so all AoE weapons now deal additional damage to blast resistant parts to compensate.

If you are interested in the specific blast resistance damage multiplier values for each weapon, you can find them all in the official weapon spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zRZm1dE7r2YsItZ3jcgyXJn0ZmOY77NwPSKEaQGGnN4/edit?usp=sharing
