Tourney Mode (Alpha)
We’re thrilled to introduce Tourney Mode - a new system designed to simplify tournament hosting! While it’s still in its early stages, here’s what you can expect:
Easy Tournament Creation: Select from the Mini Royale gamemode with Solo, Duo, or Trio options.
Predefined Teams: Tournament organizers can set up teams in advance. The time where you had to create a party previously is over :)
Player-Friendly Interface: Players will automatically see if they’re in a tournament and can seamlessly join pending games.
Automated Tracking: Team scores, placements, and key stats are automatically tracked for you.
This is just the beginning - we have big plans for more features and customization options to make tournaments even better.
Server Performance
Over the last months we worked on a new system on how the game servers work. This means the current 30 Soldiers lobbies will run smoother and we have potential for far bigger lobbies now (will be important for future updates :) ).
Server Deployment
We’ve also made significant changes to our server setup. As a small team of three developers with no prior experience launching multiplayer games, we initially hosted everything on a single cloud provider. However, we’ve taken a big step forward now:
Enhanced Server Flexibility: Our server now runs on a more versatile system, allowing us to host it everywhere.
Cost Efficiency: This shift means cheaper, more independent servers to reliably support our player base.
Scalability: During surges of new players, we can still leverage the cloud to handle the load.
We are gonna test the new system this weekend - so if you experience any troubles let us know.
