The dev team is glad to announce a new series of tournaments!
To begins this year, we will be testing several types of tournaments. This time, the official tournaments will bring together the North Americans and European players. Moreover, there is an Instagib Capture The Flag Tournament hosted by Rudeb0y and managed by us; and an Invitational Duel Tournament! The program is here:
To begin this year, we release a full rework of the level art of CTF-AndAction and a new meta for duel game type! Are you ready?
MAP
First, CTF-AndAction. The map is a bit bigger with respawns rooms behind the flags:
DUEL MODE: A NEW META
After analyzing 2020 duel tournaments, we have arranged the perks to have a better balancing for this game mode:

Shield swapped with Heal.
Standard Robot perks:
Smoke (no change).
Freon swapped with Ghost.
Teleporter swapped with Shield.
Heavy Robot perks:
Gas swapped with Teleporter.
Heal swapped with Gas.
xRay swapped with Blindness.
UPDATES / FIXES
Duel mode: Carnage pickup is now replaced by a +50HP (and no longer by a rocket launcher).
DM-Mars: New pickups distribution.
Damages popup: They are smaller and now colored depending on the damage dealt.
Sounds: Some attenuation filters for dodges / wall-dodges / jump / super jump / teleporter were adjusted.
Smoke perk: Fixed an issue where the x-ray does not work.
Ghost perk: the opacity of the character's skin is corrected.
Some logs added to be able to analyze some rare game crash.

Update December 2020
Hello everyone!
It's update time! This update mainly concerns the DUEL mode with DUEL-ROSS updated and perks balancing and as well as weapons! Are you ready?
MAPS:
DUEL-ROSS: We are releasing a new version of the map, with no structural changes but graphics update:
The duel mode can be played on maps intended for the "deathmatch" mode. The "carnage" item was then deactivated, leaving an important place on the map empty. So we implemented the following:
When the game detects a carnage item in duel mode, it will replace it with a rocket launcher slot.
If there is a rocket launcher item provided on the map, it will then be replaced by an item of 50 HP.
PERKS (GAME TYPE: DUEL):
Freon: The freezing time has been reduced by one second + fixed an issue where the freon perks weren't deactivated when the enemy is hit (it deactivates automatically).
Gas: New balance, you will now have two grenades.
Smoke: New balance, you will now have two grenades + an additional functionality: when your enemy enters the radius of the smoke, you can then see their points of life.
Teleporter: Reduced the number of teleportation and the expulsion force on the teleport point.
Ghost: Balanced against the X-RAY asset. The X-RAY can no longer detect a robot whose "ghost" attribute is active.
WEAPONS:
Electrogun: Increased damage frequency.
SMG: Reduced spread and primary fire rate.
Shotgun: Ammunition number reduced to 8 (previously 12).
Rocket Launcher: Ammo count increased to 10 (previously 8).
Flashrifle: Combo damage reduced to 150 (previously 200).
Sniper: The rate of fire is now slower (2 previously 1).
OTHER:
Fixed menu return when connecting to a server.
Fix for "hidden weapons" functionality.
We look forward to seeing you at Christmas for a content update :) Have a good weekend, have a good game, and have fun!
