2020 = smaller maps to explore new features: Destruction, Random Royale, AI ecosystems (loot truck/Pillar). 2021 = core values, larger worlds, new experiences. I love PUBG.

With that said, bloom is still a little hot in Clear, we're gonna nudge that down a bit. Foggy is desired in overcast (if they don't play different, why bother?). We are playing with ratios so Clear comes up a heavy majority of the time, makes the other 3 feel more special.

@WJacky101 @PUBG As CD, I focus on lore based costumes, how we tie stories together between seasons. Skins like Sanhok 4/Pillar, for example. Between those seasonal milestones, we've got a killer team that provides a wide spectrum of ways for players to express themselves.

@iamCDome @Hawkinz During development the Pillar Guards were being a little aggressive for our tastes, so in the final version we've fortified them in random strongholds (look for the blue flares). But once you enter those strongholds, it's on!
