So use it wisely. Disruptor-Rounds are added offering increase damage to the shielded targets, compatible with Alternator / RE-45. Hammer point rounds are also added under new hop-up offering increase damage for unshielded targets. They are compatible with P2020 and Mozambique.

Bug fixes

- EVA-8: ADS recoil now resettles back to starting point instead of a randomized offset of the starting point.
