Hear no Troopers, See no Troopers, and browse menus..(?) - V0.01.03 - 08/07/2021

Description


Hey everyone! We're addressing some bugs that we've been seeing in game, allowing players to browse the menu while in queue, and adding some visual touch ups to the Strike Map - Silo City - and main menu.

Just an update on the bots filling matches. Unfortunately, this is no easy task but we are about to head into the implementation of bots filling matches which will reduce the maximum wait times for games, FINALLY, hopefully this feature will help grow our player base faster.

Would just like to say a massive thank you to each and every one of you that have shown their dedication to Super Squad, you guys make it easy to wake up every day and keep on working.

You're welcome to join our Discord to help give us feedback throughout early access! You can also take advantage of our LFG role, and communicate directly with the Devs!

Continuation of the Beta Battlepass

While on off peak hours some players have been struggling to find games. We’re continuing the beta battlepass for 2 weeks, so that everyone has time to unlock those sweet sweet exclusives!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Browse Main Menu while in Queue

You can now view the main menu while in queue. We pushed this last week, but we had some unexpected bugs occur when we pushed, so we rolled it back and have fixed the issues we were seeing last week!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Fog of War”

We are trialling only being viewable on the minimap while someone on your team or yourself can see the enemy, this happens even if they’re behind buildings. If this ends up not being popular it will be pulled.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chat Mute

You will now be able to mute players in the in-game chat. We here at Bad Fox are not about toxicity and so if you feel uncomfortable by some peoples chat you can mute them.

Map Work

  • Visual update to the Strike map.
  • General collision work for Maps to smooth out collisions.
  • Visual update to the main menu

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bug Fixes

  • One Two passive now applies the additional damage.
  • Bots no longer run through spawn.
  • Bots no longer contribute to players K/D/A.
  • Abilities should no longer allow you to travel into spawn.
  • More error handling on matches failing to start. - Unfortunately, one of the main reason’s games won’t begin (Waiting for X players) Is because we have not region locked the game yet, this will continue to be an issue while we grow the player base however we believe that we have handled some issues that made this happen more often than it should.
  • fixed some crash issues where the name wasn’t being fetched correctly on re-login

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Known Issues

  • Your keys may be set randomly in the options menu while changing settings.
  • Sometimes the escape key won't work when in various menus, right click on the game to re-focus the window, and ESC should work.
  • Keys at Launch and Rockets diffused are not tallying correctly at the end of the Strike Match score screen.
  • Sometimes key UI icons in Strike stay on the minimap after being collected
  • Some players may not be given a vote on the gamemode vote, we're looking into this.
  • Sometimes in squad select some players are given a wider aspect ratio than intended.
  • Sometimes when a Trooper respawns they can lose their overhead UI, we're tracking this down and should have a fix soon.
  • If you end the match with an ability being aimed, the aiming line/reticule will get stuck on screen. This can cause your abilities to lock off in the next game. If you have this bug go back to main menu before re-queueing and it will fix it.
  • Borderless/Windowed/Fullscreen don't seem to be setting properly, working on a fix.
  • Sometimes when another player disconnects when you are going into match, the screen will go blurry when you go back to main menu. Everything works fine, but just a bit blurry.
  • We've had one instance of Trooper's spawning with the incorrect UI, we're keeping an eye out for this, but haven't had any additional instances of the bug.
  • Some players are experiencing random crashes. Some of these have been fixed, but there may be more. If you experience this then join the discord and send over your log files to BadFox_Eddie. You can ask him how to get your log files and he'll help!
