Hi everyone! Today we are releasing a new Parity patch that addresses tons of balancing, bot and multiplayer issues. General

Tons of multiplayer fixes
Restores lobby after finishing a game
Player now look at the ball when the game starts
You can now leave the lobby if there are only bots left
The kickoff direction in multiplayer is now displayed for clients
Reworked some menu navigation and added missing input hints
Adjusted some SFX volumes
Fixes freezes and crashes caused by bots
Fixes magnet glitches that could cause the ball to leave the arena
Fixes crashes caused by very long chat messages
Bot difficulty settings now gets saved for future games
Balancing

Major game speed overhaul: Everything moves at higher speeds but also slows down faster, making the gameplay sharper and action-heavy
Adjusts tons of minor values for tackling cooldowns, cooldowns for picking up the ball after being tackled, skates adjustments and many more
Reworks spin shot: Left/Right spin shot now actually shoot to the left or right, enabling the player to "shoot around corners"
Reworks points for most actions
Adds new button (Y/LeftAlt) that allows you to request the ball from teammates - including a visual indicator that suggests a pass-direction
Bots

When requesting a pass, bots will always attempt to pass to the requesting player
Bots now properly use new spin shots
Bot passing vastly improved
Nerfes all difficulties by applying a more realistic brain-lag (decreasing with higher difficulties)
Improves spacing of bots in highly populated games
Plenty of other minor improvements
Aside from potential hotfixes for this patch, we're working on a major update for 1.1. We'll introduce a replay feature and switch to the unity render pipeline, so stay tuned! Svonn & Parity Team

Merry Christmas Parity Players, To ensure the best experience over the holidays we just pushed a new hotfix dealing with some issues some players encountered during online sessions and when testing their skills versus the bot opponents. Other than that, we made some minor gameplay changes to further enhance the competitive aspect of Parity. General

Fixes glitch that caused players to be stuck after the host left the game
Only open pause menu when entering steam overlay during local gameplay and not when the player is in the main menu
Resolves tons of alignment and display issues for screen aspects other than 16:9 - 16:10 and even 4:3 should be working fine now
Balancing

Reduces repel-time of spin-shot
Tackle and Boost disregard current player speed make it more consistent
Slightly decreases magnet ramp-up time to allow better fake-outs
Slightly increased player mass when on ice-skates, thus slightly decreasing acceleration and deceleration
Bots

Removes accidentally applied difficulty modifiers on the level 10 bots, vastly increasing their skill
Improves goalkeeper movement on non-trivial maps
Fixes some pathfinding hiccups, improving performance in the process
Improves offense, defense, and predictive behavior
Vastly improves 1on1 skills
We're currently working on a hotfix to remove the last few known bugs from online-multiplayer. For instance, the magnet glitch that prevents players from picking up the ball. After that, we'll start working on an actual patch containing new features and quality of life improvements. Stay tuned! Svonn & Parity Team
