Payload mode will let the players commandeer a helicopter for aerial assaults while players on the ground will be given heavy weapons, recall system and Superweapon crates to shoot down the choppers. Last team or man standing will win. You can also revive your dead teammate by grabbing their dog tag and going to the communications tower. We are also getting a new ledge grab feature wherein the player can grab ledges of buildings by jumping on them to access areas that were previously inaccessible. Apart from the fuel drums, which are used to juice up your vehicle, can now explode when shot upon. There have been some new improvements in Survive Till Dawn and also some performance-related upgrades. Here is the full changelog for the update.
