November 12, 2015 Hotfix

The game servers will be coming down at 6am (pacific) tomorrow morning for a brief hotfix. Estimated downtime is approximately 1 hour and will include the following changes:

Victory Point System

 * Layout and info changes have been made to the Victory Point Scoreboard on the map screen.
 * Alerts now require at least 30 pop on two factions in a zone to start.
 * Alerts can now start on multiple continents at once.
 * Increased Alert rate, Alerts should fire off 45-90 minutes after last alert ended.
 * Linking both warpgates simultaneously no long caps the continent, but instead grants 3 victory points (in addition to the 2 victory points you get for linking the individual warpgates).
 * Indar now only requires 8 victory points to lock.

Misc

 * Removed External Fuel Tanks from ESF skill tree since this items max rank is granted by default.
 * Added AV Mana Turrets back to Engineers cert lines.
