Delta Force Update Brings Sineva Buffs and Map Tweaks

Delta Force update on January 21 adjusts Sineva operator stats, balances Trainwreck and Knife Edge modes, and resolves item overlap and UI display bugs.

A server-side update for Delta Force brings balance adjustments for operator Sineva across Warfare and Operations modes, alongside layout and vehicle tweaks for Trainwreck and Knife Edge maps.

Operator Sineva Balances

Sineva receives EOD set damage reduction increases from 30 percent to 50 percent and shield turning speed limit increases from 360 to 540 degrees per second across all modes. In Warfare, the grapple gun cooldown drops from 15 to 10 seconds, observation window health increases to 150 on PC, bullet and explosion blocking scores increase, and shield bash damage rises from 35 to 55. In Operations, grapple gun cooldown drops from 35 to 25 seconds, and EOD set removal time drops from 4.6 to 1.6 seconds.

Map Adjustments for Trainwreck and Knife Edge

On Trainwreck Attack and Defend, attackers receive light vehicles at Sector B, while defenders gain an FSV Wheeled Tank Destroyer and a vehicle supply station near the attacker base, alongside a fix for a missing fixed weapon in Sector D. Trainwreck King of the Hill mode adjusts the location of B1 and the areas of B2 and Sector D while fixing stacked vehicle spawns. Knife Edge adds an unlocked ORV for attackers as troop force decreases in S1 and adjusts capture areas across multiple sectors.

Bug Fixes and Optimizations

The patch resolves item overlap issues in Layali Grove, display problems in Brakkesh and outdoor med crates, squadmate spectator UI errors, and building window display bugs. The Warfare 2x Merit card functions correctly, the right-click Stash menu is fixed, major event probabilities on Ascension are optimized, and flipped vehicles are easier to exit.

Why this patch matters

This update makes Sineva viable through reduced cooldowns and increased damage reduction, while smoothing out vehicle spawns on Trainwreck.
