Hello all!
As you may have already seen, we recently introduced some changes and updates to the Battle Simulator. You can find a full list of the changes at the bottom of this post.
This thread is mainly intended for feedback regarding these changes. Are they good or bad, too big or too small, etc. Anything you can think of!
However, if you have any suggestions you feel are missing from the previous thread, you can post them here as well. If so, please add a bolded "Suggestion" to the top of the post so it is easily distinguishable from the other feedback.
Once again, please also follow these rules while posting:
- Feedback, ideas and suggestions only. Discussions should be conducted in other Battle Sim threads.
- Keep it on topic and fairly brief.
- No bug reports. These should be handled via support cases.
Thank you all in advance!

Battle Simulator Update
A new Bonus Pool has been added to the Battle Simulator, which increases in value with every Battle Simulator ticket purchased. Each Battle Simulator run has a chance to award 5%, 25%, 50% or 90% of the current Bonus Pool upon successful completion of the instance. The current value of the Bonus Pool is displayed on the Battle Simulator Leaderboard, and will be seeded with 10.000 PED at the start of the next season.
- Battle Simulator tickets now cost 6 PED, a portion of which is added to the Bonus Pool.
- Implemented new graphical assets to improve looks and performance.
- Optimized and tweaked many areas of the instance.
- The number of leaderboard places paid has been extended.
- Removed the possibility of evade from hit calculations.
- Improved the hitbox for Eviscerators.
- Unclaimed loot from uncompleted runs is now added to the Bonus Pool.
- Removed snare weapon and added the slowing effect to the grenade launcher.
- Reduced range of rocket launcher.
- Health packs are now stationary and heal over time.
- Two additional health packs have been added to the course.
- A new elite turret has been introduced. (Note: The elite turret looks identical to the normal turret; be sure to check the creature name to distinguish.)
- A rare melee boss has been introduced.
- Destroyed Eviscerators now lie closer to the ground.
- A ‘Replay Instance’ window will appear after exiting the instance.
- The ‘Increased Reward’ message will now appear when entering the last area.
- Glow on turrets and creatures will disappear when killed.
- Moving outside of the perimeter will cause death (there is a 10 second warning).
