Additionally, the recently launched Update 30.2 reintroduces items like the Tactical Pack and EMT Gear, now assigned to primary weapon slots with enhanced functionalities. The Tactical Pack offers increased attachment slots, and the EMT Gear reduces the usage time for heal items and increases the speed of teammate revival. The All-In-One Repair Kit can now be used three times and occupies the secondary weapon slot. These items now spawn in all maps. Additional updates include Automobili Lamborghini collaboration items, vehicle customization enhancements, the Flare Gun in Deston, and adjusted spawn rates for the Emergency Pickup in Miramar and Rondo. General map bug fixes have also been implemented to improve performance, collision detection, and textures.
