Saucers are disc-shaped aircraft with a bluish-green dome on top of them, resembling the popular conception of a UFO. They appeared on 2Fort, Badwater Basin, Dustbowl, Gold Rush, Lakeside, Gravel Pit, Lumberyard, Decoy, Doomsday, Double Cross, Granary, and Barnblitz, following the September 10, 2015 Patch. Multiple posters also appeared around maps depicting Saucers and the phrases "I Want to Believe" and "Be Aware; UFOs in this area".
The Saucers were added as a teaser for the Invasion Community Update.
Video
Saucers were introduced on July 7, 2015 with a leaked video titled Invasion, depicting BLU members watching a sci-fi movie Bat-Things From Planet X at Conagher ranch, when the barn they are viewing the movie in gets invaded and destroyed by a saucer.
The video was deleted from YouTube due to copyright claim and reuploaded October 6, 2015, when the Invasion Community Update was officially released.
