Red Faction Guerrilla Gets Updated

THQ made a new update for the Red Faction Guerrilla playlists live today. Here is what changes you have in store for you:

1. The “Team Objective” playlist has been removed and replaced with separate playlists for “Damage Control”, “Capture the Flag” and “Demolition”.

2. The balance of overall game modes found across each playlist has been adjusted to ensure certain modes do not occur as often. One specific example is a large reduction in “Rockets/Grinders & Jetpacks”.

3. Adjusted the overall map priority so lesser played maps will show up more often in the rotation.

4. The map “Quarantine” has been added to the “Team Anarchy” playlist, instead of previously being found only within “Anarchy”.

Below is a quick example of the game modes / map priority balancing. This specific example is for the “Large Mixer” playlist, but note that every single playlist had changes applied to it.

• There are 29 playlist entries in Large Mixer (Combination of map and weapon load outs).
• In the previous version, the top 2 combined entries appeared 35% of the time.
• In the previous version, the top 7 entries combined appeared 75% of the time.
• In the previous version, the bottom 8 entries combined appeared less than 1% of the time.
• Now, each entry appears between 1% to 5% of the time, with most at 3-4%.

To sum it all up, Large Mixer is now truly a “mixer” playlist, and not just the same few entries over and over. The same changes have been made to each playlist within RFG. Two final examples:

• Of the 134 previous playlist entries, 24 would each occur around or less than 0.1% of the time.

Now there are 167 entries, and none occur significantly less than 1% of the time.
