[2019] Anthem current and upcoming changes - 2/22/2019

Hey Freelancers,

As some of you have noticed there are certain fixes that we can make without any patches (live changes), but there are others that require a client-side fix that needs to be downloaded. We have identified the following issues and are working on a client patch to resolve them:

• The final boss in the Heart of Rage stronghold isn’t appearing if the group wipes before engaging
• HDR is currently disabled on consoles (Xbox One and PS4)
• Some players are encountering issues that are causing them to crash

While the team continues to work on the above fixes they were able to address some of the live issues that have been reported:

• Coin changes for Daily/Weekly
  We have fixed an issue that displayed and rewarded the incorrect amount of Coin from various activities

• Stronghold Matchmaking
  We have extended the timer that allows for matchmaking in a stronghold. This should allow groups to fill easier when matchmaking

• Non-stop Rain
  We have fixed an issue that was causing it to rain in game more than intended

• Fusion Proc Bonuses on Weapons
  Weapons were incorrectly applying infusion proc/bonuses from being equipped when they should only have been applying bonuses from the weapon that was in the active slot

• Chests found in Missions changes
  Chests found in missions now have less of a chance to drop higher tiered items

• Emotes Not Properly Saving
  We have fixed the issue that was causing emotes not to save properly when bound

• Shield Fix
  We corrected an issue that was allowing players who still have shields active to be one shot by high damaging attacks
