Lighthouse location rework
As we've already mentioned, one of the key changes coming with update 1.1.5.0 will be a Lighthouse rework.
The most noticeable change will be the placement of Rogues: their base will move from the water treatment plant to the chalet area. This will make the vast industrial area much more accessible for exploration, looting, and tactical maneuvers.
Accordingly, the chalet will now be a fortified position, surrounded by observation posts manned by Rogues.
A makeshift UN checkpoint will appear on the central section of the main road overlooked by chalet - an important cover in a previously completely exposed position.
In addition, new small points of interest will appear throughout the location: Rogue caches, abandoned outposts, observation posts - and even an underground route beneath the cliffs.
We've also worked to isolate PMC spawns: new cliffs and vegetation have been added to some spots to provide more room to maneuver at the start of a raid.
With the update, Lighthouse will become the third location with a BTR route. It will run along the main road, passing through the village and the water treatment plant.
There will be no more landmines in the location - except for those restricting the playable area and blocking access to Lightkeeper’s peninsula.
Finally, the way Rogues treat PMCs will change. USEC will no longer receive preferential treatment - characters of both factions will be fired upon on sight.
