PlanetSide 2 Rolls Out Oshur Update On PlayStation 4 Today
It’s been PlanetSide 2. As with the PC release, the new tropical map will come with new points of interest, outposts, and bases, that factions can now fight over, capture, and defend.
“Oshur was designed with an emphasis on logistics and diversity of gameplay. The towering Trident Relays necessitate air and quick responses, the lattice has deliberate and strategic cutoffs for squad and platoon leaders to pursue, the beachheads and mid-field bases carve a meaningful role for construction; the open savannahs, sandy beaches, and tropical jungles foster vehicle battles and heavy armor usage; and the hand-crafted designer-driven bases create unique and learnable gameplay spaces for hardened infantry veterans. With this new island battleground, there is something to enjoy no matter your style of gameplay.”
The update also introduces new Expeditions and Directives, Chapter 2 of the Distant Shores Campaign, as well as new gameplay mechanics such as the ability to swim or drive vehicles underwater and underwater weapons. There’s also a long list of quality of life improvements including a shortened friendly fire griefing counter, decreased friendly fire damage, balance tweaks to infantry, and new construction options.
You can check out the Oshur PS4 patch notes on the PlanetSide 2 official site.
