CUSTOM MATCHES!
We've been listening to the community and the most requested feature has been Custom Matches. We've put together version 1.0 of this feature, and didn't want to wait to get it out there! We have a lot of ideas to improve the customizability of the matches(Armory options, Map selection etc...), but wanted to get the basic mode out there for everyone to try. We feel that these base options offer enough freedom to create some fun private games!
Keep your eyes open for more game customizations coming in the near future, and leave us your feedback and suggestions in our Discord!
