Garena has released the long-awaited OB24 in Free Fire, bringing a bunch of new features to the game, including new weapons, character tweaks, and balance changes. The September 2020 update is called "Booyah Day" and is about 350MB in size. Here is the full patch summary for Free Fire's OB24 update.
New weapons
The flamethrower
A hot new weapon, and as the name suggests, the flamethrower can fire flames that can burn Gloo walls faster than any other weapon in the game. It's perfect for close combat but cannot be reloaded once exhausted.
- Damage: 15
- Minimum damage: 10
- Range: 4
- Rate of fire: 0,06
Parafal
Parafl is the latest AR that has been added to the game. It is great for long range combat but fights at close range. Parafal's rate of fire is very low and players must land their bullets to be effective.
- Damage: 48
- Charger: 30
- Rate of fire: 0,245
- Attachments: muzzle, stock, magazine, grip and scope.
Balance Changes
- Grenade can now be fired by hand to reduce detonation time. Keep in mind that with the update, Grenade can now burst in your hands.
- Even with the biggest magazine in the game, the P90 has always been a low level weapon. However, its rate of fire has been increased by 3% and its spray spread has been reduced by 10%, making it faster and more accurate.
- M14 Rage Core fire rate reduced by 11%.
- The M14 gets a 1 point (58) buff to its overall damage and a 5 point (25) nerf to its minimum damage.
- Plasma will now be more effective in the late game as it gets a 2 point increase on accurate shots and an 11% decrease in its spread while moving.
- Kar98k in combination with the Biometric Scope is one of the most powerful weapons in the game. To counter this, its aim assist radius has been reduced by 35%.
Character Update
- Jai gets a skill buff making him more versatile and usable in different scenarios. Its new reload stats are 30/33/36/39/42/45% and can now be used with AR, Pistol, SMG, and SG.
