v1.1.5 Patch Notes
Dear Players,
Introducing the in-game chat ! You are now able to write to the whole players of your room. In the next update you will be able to only write to your team.
We also increased Zeus toothpick damages from 160 to 185.
We had a lot of feedbacks and we took the decision that the weapons would be now all allowed in FFA mode. We are not able to set up a high level FFA mode because it would split too much the traffic.
The gameplay with the Bow and Shuriken only was also too boring.
More weapons, gamemodes and new map to come.
Stay tuned !
100k players registered on BattleStick !
Dear players,
The update 1.1.4 is now live and we have more than 100k players registered on BattleStick !
There is few changes for a more balanced gameplay for the FFA game mode especially for the newbies.
There is now weapon restriction for FFA mode. You can now only play in FFA mode with weapons unlockable before the level 4.
The TDM map has been improved.
Fixing a bug with the free coins (50 coins each 20 minutes).
New death sound added.
v1.1.0 Patch Notes
Overview
Dear Players,
The update most of you have been waiting for is now live! Introducing the team deathmatch game-mode! You and 5 others can now simultaneously work together to dominate the playing field against 6 other opponents at a chance of becoming the reigning King! On top of that, this specific game-mode has a unique map along with hazards (beware the spike-pit!) and an underground section to keep things interesting! Will you charge in, sticks flailing, or will you rather stealthy sneak up behind the enemy to ambush them? The choice is yours, but there can only be one victorious team!

The update is currently in the process of being beta tested. For those of you who would be interested in joining the beta testing team; you are asked to please visit the BattleStick sub-reddit and keep an eye out for the stickies to be informed of upcoming test sessions as well as to apply to be a part of the beta testing team.

v1.0.0 Patch Notes
Overview
Dear Players,
We are excited to announce the huge update that you may have heard us referring to recently! The main focus of this update is the server and game architecture. We have been working tirelessly to have a scalable solution to handle a greater amount of total and concurrent players as well as maximising performance. We feel that with this update we have made considerable progress as we are now able to quickly and easily deploy servers as the demand requires.
Thanks to your feedback and extensive testing we have also rebalanced all of the weapons. We have tried out the changes on our development server and feel it is a good start, but obviously we will need the kind of raw stats and feedback that only actual extended gameplay can provide. So keep this in mind and if you have any feedback to offer on this please feel free to share it with us.
