Update 2.0 - Domination is Live!
Update 2.0 is now here! We're excited to release so many new changes and fixes that our community members have requested to implement into the game! We're releasing a NEW map, NEW game mode, Steam Achievements, and NEW weapon and equipment parts in the 2.0 update! That is a heck of a lot of new stuff, and we're also addressing current balance concerns and bug fixes. We have made some changes to the Personal Shield which will now be a consumable equipment item, so players will need to utilize ammo refill boxes to replenish their shields. Additionally, there are a wide ranging number of weapon balance tweaks that have affected all weapon chassis.
Preview of the Upcoming Game Mode Available in Update 2.0
In yesterday's Developer Live Stream we showcased the new game mode Domination which will be available in Update 2.0. If you're interested in viewing the new content, check the link below:
We released an update earlier today to the matchmaker that will now narrow the skill range of players searching for games. The matchmaker will also attempt to group players of similar ranges for a longer duration of time before widening the parameters of the search.
Players may experience longer waiting times while searching for games. Players at the very high end of the matchmaking spectrum may notice a much longer wait time than others.
New Map "Spires" Playthrough and Q&A
During the Developer Live Stream we provided the first game mode(s) play through on our upcoming map, currently named “Spires.” There was also live gameplay use of the Deployable Shield, the LMG Barrel, the Double Barrel Rocket Launcher and the newly reworked Personal Shield. Spires features a stark contrast in vertical gameplay accented by planked bridges and plenty of areas to utilize advanced jumping maneuvers. The new map, Deployable Shield, Double Barrel (Rocket Chassis) and lots more will be available in the upcoming build.
