The April 7 update had a couple main points, with the first being toward camo challenges. If you have played Vanguard since its release, then you probably rememberthe odd objectives neededto unlock new skins. Now, SHG is making the Headshot and Longshot medal requirements lower for “several” camos.

Another key part of this focused on Tuscan and Gavutu, which are both CDL maps. The devs have been testing anew spawn system in the Experimental Playlist, and it looks like they will implemented some already. For Tuscan, both Control and Hardpoint spawns are being altered slightly, while Gavutu Control is seeing a change to protect spawners.

Developers also fixed the Armaguerra 43 from being completely silent when using a suppressor as well as attachments that would stack modifiers.
