Patch 0.4.18c

This patch enables the Full Throttle Event!

More details:

  • Control has been simplified - instead of multiple sub-rounds, the control point will move around the map whenever a single team manages to score 50 points at that location. First to 100 points wins!
    • Overall this shouldn't affect the gameplay significantly, except in close three-player matches where you'll be likely to see a fourth control point pop up.
    • This mostly just aligns the game mode's architecture with other existing modes, and makes end-game scoring simpler to understand.

  • You now get a kill if a player suicides within 5 seconds of you damaging them.

      With this change in mind, we've also removed the -1 point penalty for suicide in Depthmatch.

  • Refreshed UI:

    • All text should now be legible when played on a handheld or TV.
    • Simplified weapon display on HUD to make rarities easier to understand.
    • Added reorient and menu control display to the main HUD. As always, these can be turned off in the settings menu.

  • Added support for Cyrillic and other characters in players' usernames.
