Template:Patch PTB 3.5.0

FEATURES & CONTENT


 * Feature - Added a Compendium page in the Archives. This page allows users to go back to previous Tomes and complete challenges. Completing challenges from a previous Tome will not give the user Rift Fragments.
 * Feature - Added a new Rift and Challenges for Tome II in the Archives. A new popup will display once a new Tome & Rift are active. Note: Only Level I of Tome II will be accessible during the PTB.
 * Feature - Showing/Hiding the tally screen chat is persistent after every match. This feature has been added to each type of chat (party, online and tally) and is independent for each chat.
 * Feature - Removed the invert camera in-game keybinding and from the Controls menu. This option is still available in the Settings menu.
 * Feature - Movement Extrapolation: Testing a system to make player positions more consistent between clients under normal latency conditions. This should reduce cases of Survivors getting hit by Killers who appear too far away. Note: This is only a test for PTB. This feature is not currently planned to be enabled for release.
 * Content - Updated the Treatment Theatre map (see details below in the BALANCE section).
 * Content - Removed Dutch & Swedish language support.
 * Content - Disabled the Cursed Legacy Japanese thematic lobby.

BALANCE


 * Gatekeeper Emblem: Flattened score value of all remaining generators so now all generators are worth the same amount (1 point per minute) regardless of the duration that they remain in the match. Also added an additional score for both gate remaining unopened at the end of the match.
 * Hex: Ruin: All generators are affected by Hex: Ruin; if a generator is not being worked on, it regresses at 100/150/200% the normal regression rate. The Hex effect persists as long as the related Hex totem is standing.
 * Rainbow maps will track chests if revealed by a perk that shows chests (ie: Detective's Hunch).
 * The Oni: Removed turn speed limitation on Demon Strike. Implemented a hard cap on the turn angle during Demon Strike.

The Doctor changes


 * Removed Treatment Mode and the Static Field VFX. The Doctor will no longer need to switch stances to use Shock Therapy, or to use a regular attack.
 * Added Doctor-specific chase music.
 * Added a new special ability, Static Blast, as the secondary power (see below for more information).
 * Added a 3 second cooldown to Shock Therapy. This means it will take 3 seconds before The Doctor can hit with his primary weapon, use Shock Therapy or use Static Blast.
 * Increased the base range of Shock Therapy by 10%.
 * Range increasing add-ons no longer increase the width of the Shock Therapy, only the length. See the add-on changes below for more information.
 * Reduce charging move speed to 67% normal from 70% normal to keep the speed the same at 3.08 m/s.
 * Madness regresses while outside the Terror Radius, and does not regress while inside it.

 * Scrapped Tape: Name changed to Iridescent Queen. Rarity changed from Uncommon to Ultra Rare. *Survivors hit with Shock Therapy or Static Blast acquire a lingering Static Charge. If a Survivor with Static Charge is within 4 meters of another Survivor, the Survivor receives a shock with identical effects as the Shock Therapy and Static Blast.
 * Iridescent King add-on: Shock Therapy and Static Blast cause the Survivor to gain a random Madness affliction.
 * Renamed the Shock Therapy score event to Pacified.
 * Added a score event for hitting Survivors with Static Blast (Tranquilized - 300 Bloodpoints).

Static Blast


 * Static Blast is a new mechanic for The Doctor. We removed the Treatment Mode and the ability to switch between modes. The Doctor will always be able to hit with his primary weapon, use Shock Therapy (which now has a 3 second cooldown), and can use Static Blast. Static Blast takes 2 seconds to activate, and has a 60 second cooldown.
 * The Doctors Static Blast causes all Survivors within his terror radius to gain 50 Madness points.
 * The Doctor will laugh if the Static Blast affects any Survivor.
 * Affected Survivors will scream; they give away their location if their Madness level increases.
 * Survivors outside the Terror Radius hear a direction-neutral audio cue when the ability is being charged and when it fires.
 * Survivors inside the Terror Radius hear direction-revealing audio cues for the charge and fire of the ability.
 * Scoring event for hitting Survivors.

Snap Out Of It adjustments


 * Missing a skill check will regress the progression bar by 1/4th instead of all the way.
 * Skill checks will trigger at every quadrant of the progress bar.
