NA:
We will perform maintenance on Friday, May 18 at 02:00 PT | 04:00 CT | 05:00 ET. The game will be unavailable for approximately 1 hour.
Starting May 18, Frontline: Road to Glory will have some changes to the dynamic zone defense system:
- If the attacking team captures two zones in line 1, capturing a zone in line 2 requires 220 capture points (instead of 250)
- If the attacking team captures all three zones in line 1, capturing a zone in line 2 requires 100 capture points (instead of 150)
The patch will also address the issue of Valhallan Ragnarok and Mordian styles providing no concealment bonus.

Patchnotes:
• Fixed the issue when the Valhallan Ragnarok and Mordian styles provided no bonus to concealment.
• Frontline mode: improved the system of dynamic zone defense. Now, if the attacking team captures two zones in line 1, capturing a zone in line 2 requires 220 capture points (instead of 250). If the attacking team captures all three zones in line 1, capturing a zone in line 2 requires 100 capture points (instead of 150).
Downtime: is planned about 45 minutes
Planned restarts on this day will be cancelled.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to do an opposite, shorten the time required to capture first zones to give the attacking team a foothold but extend the time to capture the second line to make the fight more intense?
No, they just want you to camp.
Light a fire and sit around it, roast some mallows.
We are talking about Russians here komrade. Like bizarro world, everything in Russia is backwards.
The first base is usually the easiest to cap. The next ones can be a huge pain in the ass because of the “safe defense parameter” in the back.
