A new DUST 514 update has been deployed for the game currently in closed beta testing. Devs have penned a new blog to discuss the significant changes made in Chromosome, most notably improving the foundations of the game and significant changes to the progression system, the squad system, the fitting system and game modes.

One of the most unique features you will see in Chromosome, however, is the ability to request off-map support from players on our test servers in EVE Online. With this feature, DUST mercenaries will be able to coordinate devastating bombardments with EVE pilots in space ships in planetary orbit. These Orbital Bombardments have the capability to dramatically change the tide of battle, and we'll be testing them thoroughly in the weeks to come.
