Developer Patch Hotfix 2017/05/03

We are rolling out a hot-fix tomorrow morning to fix some minor issues related to the patch that we released some time ago. This hot-fix contains a lot of client sided fixes (check notes) and also contains a lot of server improvements and crash fixes. We have worked hard to release this hot-fix as soon as possible so that your game experience becomes better with less crashing and better performance.
Please read the end of these hot-fix notes about exact date and time this hot-fix will be released.

GENERAL UPDATES

Fixed some loading screens that had wrong links.

Improved the look of the in-game killfeed. Players can now visually see with what weapon players kill each other.
Removed the normal skinbox from the daily rewards.

Some of the bigger PVP maps now have a clan limit of 10 instead of 5.
Players can now only purchase GC with exact numbers. (So now players buying GC through Steam can only buy GC for 1, 2, 4, 10$ etc.. No longer: 1.10$ for example)

For the players wondering about the new Battle Royale map; the map is close to being finished and will most likely be released in the next upcoming patch. We are aiming to release another patch as soon as possible.
Servers will go down for this hot-fix tomorrow morning: Wednesday, May 3, at 11:00 AM (UTC+2). Server downtime will be very short.
