Bulletproof Cameras (which now fire EMP bursts) can be used by Defenders after death. As well, Zero's ARGUS Cameras, Mozzie's drones, Echo's Yokai, and Maestro's Evil Eye can be used by those Operators after death. Attackers will be able to drive their own drones after death.

The icon will remain for the duration of the round, just as a body would. When a player is eliminated, a transparent Operator icon will appear in place of their body.This change was made to help keep players in the flow of action. In addition, the slow motion and opponent closeup that were previously part of the death replay have been removed. When a player dies they will now be able to skip over the first-person death animation.The rest of the map, including the overall structure of the main building, has been completely remade, so players will get to experience a virtually new location that retains the same theme as the original Favela. The map's small size, irregular exterior, and verticality also remain. They were previously named 3F Main Stairs, 3F Back Stairs, and 3F Packaging and are now named 3F Red Stairs, 3F Trash Chute, and 3F Electrical. The two main entryways on Favela's roof have been preserved.

Attackers had plenty of entry points to breach, making it difficult for Defenders to guard their objectives. While the destructible exterior walls on Favela map have allowed for interesting strategies, they never provided players with perfectly balanced gameplay. A healer by nature, she uses her Kóna Healing Station to improve the well-being of her teammates and also foes.įavela was originally made to provide players with a brand new destruction experience and was never intended for competitive play.

The game's newest Operator is Thunderbird, a 3-speed defender and "free-spirited pilot" from the Nakoda Territories in Saskatchewan, Canada.

North Star might well prove to be one of the biggest updates the game has ever seen with the After Death Experience changes (currently only on the Test Server) potentially marking a sea-change in how the game is played.
