1. Map Update 8

    ObsidianSpartan
    The following changes were made by feedback given through the Forged Friday Livestream:

    The SAW and Plasma Caster have been permanently removed from the map.
    Railgun has been moved from its initial location; its ammo count has been reduced from 5 to 3, and its respawn time set to 150 seconds. The Railgun has been moved to the central lounge on the lower platform table where the SAW was initially.
    A DMR has been added to the location that the Railgun was previously set.
    Gravity Hammer energy capacity reduced from 75% to 50%.
    Over-shield power up respawn time increased to 150 seconds.
    Shotgun placed on shelf near villa entrance has been permanently removed from the map.
    Both sniper rifles remain unchanged from position, respawn time increased to 150 seconds.
    SPNKR Rocket launcher remains cheekily hidden as usual.

    Aesthetic changes:
    The glass near the entrance has been set to a vibrant red colour. This makes it stand out more and is less likely to tamper with gameplay.
    Overlapped, glowing blue shield glass on the holographic interface has been removed, followed by the blue light set on it. Other lights and sound effects in the same room have been removed to restore frame rate stability in that specific area.
    Light bake on some large objects switched off to reduce light map expenditure.
    Another van has been added to the outside garden area to encourage cover and reduce the open space in that specific area.
