REDUCE INPUT LAG H1Z1 PATCH
REDUCE INPUT LAG H1Z1 OFFLINE

Several additional anti-cheat improvements and optimizations are in this build.Added the Level 100 reward (for reaching Level 100 prior to Early Access Launch and the account level wipe).Kill Feed is slightly more prominent and now stays active on the end screens.Made teammate death state and kill count more identifiable.This should reduce the frequency of 'spawn kills.' Respawning players are now hidden and protected from damage until they've fully loaded in.Increased Inventory capacity to allow for easier weapon swaps.

Players now always spawn with an AR-15, AK-47, and Shotgun in their weapon slots, and an SMG in their Inventory.

We've renamed it Combat Training, and made a few updates to enhance the overall experience. We introduced the Combat Zone largely as a tool to help players learn and master the various weapons. H1Z1 has unique combat that can be difficult to master.Smoke grenades no longer respect the global grenade cooldown and can be thrown immediately after other grenades.Flashbangs and smoke grenades have had their cooldowns decreased from 5 seconds to 3 seconds.Stun grenades have been renamed to flashbangs to more clearly indicate their effects.All lethal grenades have had their cooldowns increased from 5 seconds to 7.5 seconds.Molotovs have had an 80% reduction of up-front damage to decrease their lethality and make them a displacement weapon.Frag grenades have had their one-shot radius reduced by 50%.Shotgun hit feedback has been updated so that if any pellets are headshots, the Kill Feed and Death Screens will properly give it credit as a headshot.Vehicles are now more evenly distributed throughout The Arena regardless of the safe zone's starting location.As always, we'll continue to monitor this and make improvements as necessary. Now that we've moved the light bar to be inside the cab, we can relax this requirement a bit and allow you to shoot over objects easier. The most notorious of these was the light bar on top of cop cars. To combat the 'head glitch' issue, we made firing over objects more restrictive requiring more of your upper body to be exposed before you can fire over objects.Spawn Selection window now opens by default and the gas ring preview is always enabled.Crouch transitions should feel smoother now and you're allowed a bit more movement before the fatigue kicks in. Crouch fatigue exists to prevent crouch spamming, however there were circumstances where it was a bit too punishing.Fixed a specific micro stutter case that could occur when aiming down sights.Fixed a specific micro stutter case that could occur by optimizing how irradiance volumes are created and handled.Optimized how the game engine handles scenarios where numerous players are fighting in a particular area most frequently found in Fives.Optimized SpeedTree billboard rendering.Optimized how SpeedTree handled vertex buffer multi-threading.Optimized how information is sent to the Kill Feed that reduces load on the UI.Optimized threading line-of-sight and shoulder swap collision checks.Optimized collision detection by multi-threading scenarios that were only running on a single thread.Optimized how the GPU handles shotgun particle effects.Here are the specific changes in this update: A huge thank you to everyone who has sent videos and information - these have been immensely helpful as we have been able to reproduce and address specific issues and find opportunities to optimize the game code. These should reduce many of the micro stutter symptoms that have been idenitifed by our internal QA teams as well as the community. Recently, we have been focusing the internal structures that were optimized pre-Windows 10 Creators Update. Performance and micro stutters have been our top priority for many months.
