The patch notes for the 04.10.2011 patch follows below:



Function Update

* Fusion Weapons:  After a lot of work, sweat, and no small amount of swearing, Bubba Ares is
    introducing the latest line of weapons for the discriminating soldier. The new line of ?Fusion Weapons?
    might better be described as the ?Frankenstein?s monsters? of weapons development. Bubba will take
    bits and pieces of already great weapons and fuse them together into death machines that frankly
    scare us just writing about them! That's not all! You can now forge PERMANENT weapons!

   


* Customization Improvement: To make the weapon customization process easier, all of the old
    customization items have been removed from the game and replaced with new "Customization Parts."
    Any customization items currently in your possession have been replaced with an equal amount of
    Customization Parts.

   


* UI Change:  The Gun Emporium UI has been reorganized to be more intuitive and easier to use.
    As you can see above, the customize menu has been revamped and easier to use.
    The Forge menu has also been freshened up.

   



Map Update

* New Search & Destroy Clan Map: Piazza
    Piazza is a new map for clans only!
    This Search & Destroy map will only be available on the Bull Terrier server.

    A successful mission has become a disaster! Your team recovered an EMP bomb capable of shutting
    down all electrical and communication networks in an area the size of Rome from a local terrorist cell.
    Something happened on the way to your pickup though. All communication with headquarters has
    been lost and you?ve gone to ground in a quaint nearby village. Unfortunately, it seems that the
    former owners of the bomb have tracked you down. Now you have no choice. You must defend the
    bomb in the village until communications with HQ can be restored. You?ve taken the bomb, now you
    have to keep it!

   
   
   



Gun Emporium Update

* Fusion Weapons!
    Bubba Ares has created a lot of great customizable and upgraded weapons in his day, but nobody
    ever really thought he was crazy ? until now. Even jaded soldiers are shaking their heads at his latest
    line of Fusion Weapons, wondering if these things might not violate a couple of human rights laws.
    Of course, they stop wondering once they get their hands on this lethal beauty.

    WA2000-1 Tactical
   

    No one?s entirely sure how Bubba managed to swap out the barrel of the WA2000 and replace it with
    that of the DSR-1 Tactical. Frankly though, after seeing this thing in action, no one really cares.
    The WA-2000-1 Tactical?s abilities can be summed up like this: it shoots through villages. 


* New Mark II Weapons!
    You can always tell when Bubba has succeeded at pulling off something by the smile on his face.
    The really loud explosions from the Gun Emporium help, too. Check out the new Mark II weapons!

    TAR-21 MARK II
   

    Skorpion Black MARK II
     

    SAIGA 20K CAMO MARK II
   



* More Customizable Weapons!
    Did you ever wonder when Bubba Ares gets to sleep? We?re not sure because he?s added a whole
    bunch of new customizable weapons to the Gun Emporium!

    FAMAS
    ACR Sandfire
    XK-8
    M1866
    L115A2
    ACR Blacksnake
    M417 CQB
    Anaconda Silver 8-Inch
    MP5 RAS
    M92F SE



Shop Update

* Black Market Update
    - Aviator's Cap
       The signature cap of aerial warriors.
       Features ear flaps and goggles to keep you fighting at 14,000 feet.

       


* GP Update
    Say hello to our new GP weapons. An assault rifle and two vintage pistols!
    - Galil ACE
       This modern update to the Israeli Galil was designed with a focus on combat versatility.
       Exchangeable barrels allow it to use a variety of ammunition types and nearly every piece can be
       customized to further tailor the rifle for each soldier's needs. Unlocked at Second Lieutenant 2.

       

    - Luger P-08
       Despite its age, the Luger P-08 remains one of the most dominating pistols ever created.
       The unique toggle-lock action coupled with sleek design and superior accuracy make this one of the
       most sought-after guns in the world. Unlocked at Command Sergeant Major 5 (CSM 5).

       

    - Walther P38
       The Walther P38 refined the design of the German Luger to make it more powerful and versatile.
       As the first full-powered military handgun to feature a double-action trigger, this 9mm
       semiautomatic pistol is a popular piece for collectors. Unlocked at Second Lieutenant 1 (2LT 1).

       



Game Balancing & Fixing

* Bug Fixes
    - The error message that appears when an Elite Moderator attempts to kick with only 3 or fewer
       players in the match has been corrected.
    - The third person model for the XM8 has been corrected.
    - The First Aid Kit is now dropped from the player's hands, as opposed to behind the player's back.

* Other Changes
    - Switched 4 channels from the Rec Rules server to the clan server Bull Terrier.
