There are a lot more features have been added in the latest patch update for the PlanetSide 2 on PC. Below you can also find a summarised version of the latest PlanetSide 2 patch notes.
DX11 Integration
Our continued quest for improvement has brought us here, after months of work and a coordinated effort from multiple departments throughout the company, we’re pleased to announce that DX11 has arrived in PlanetSide 2.
Players on all types of compatible hardware should be receiving notable performance increases due in no small part to this update, but others as well. Numerous third-party software used by the game and our own internal Forgelight engine has been updated, and we’ve also restructured the way that assets are packed and encrypted. This results in not only a more performant game, but also smaller file sizes, and more security from cheaters.
Nanite Systems Operatives
Built to function in the harshest weather conditions and most demanding combat roles, our new Nanite Systems Operatives are here to serve. Players now have the ability to create a robotic character on a new, fourth faction, the Nanite Systems Operatives (or NSO).
- NSO characters are available to players with All Access Memberships
- Each time an Operative moves to a new continent, they will be assigned to fight for whichever faction currently has the lowest population. This action will not be re-assigned until the player travels to a new continent.
- Operative characters use Nanite Systems weaponry only and have their own special Directive lines available for completion. NSO characters do not have equivalents for faction-specific items, so use caution when purchasing bundles that offer items for multiple factions.
