| AUGUST 7TH UPDATE: FRAGMENT CASE UPDATE, DOUBLE LOADOUT CASE DROPS AND OBSIDIAN OPERATIVE PROXY | 2018-08-07 | Welcome to another Dirty Bomb update. In this one we're making a number of big changes and it's time for another make-over for Proxy. FRAGMENT CASE UPDATE Long story short, Fragment Cases will no longer drop after you complete matches. Short story long, we know that many of you find the Fragment cases a little underwhelming when you earn them and they're added to your inventory, so we thought of a better way for you to earn Fragments in a bit of a more interesting way (Read the next section to find out what) Psst. If you have any Fragment Cases in your inventory, don't worry! Those won't be going anywhere, so you can save them for the memorie |
