Hello everyone.
Today is the day. The biggest update yet to my game, Beta Snippet 5, is now available.
This update brings a lot of new content, with more coming at a later date. Here's what's new:
ADDITIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS:
- Added NEW Outerwear: Pouch Belt (THIS WILL BE BEFORE THE "Butcher Blades" OUTERWEAR, SO IF YOU HAVE THAT UNLOCKED AND EQUIPPED, YOU CAN RE-CONFIGURE YOUR OUTERWEAR TO HAVE IT EQUIPPED AGAIN IF YOU'D LIKE...)
- Added NEW Game Mode: Stone Hunt / Modified SMG-P1 Starts - (BASED ON A BUG THAT CAUSED DEATH IMMUNITY...) Each shot hit on a player grants 5 Points, and spawns a Hurt Tombstone at their location. The SMG-P1 has modified traits. The damage is set to 1 and the Mag Capacity is set to 100. The first player to reach 2,000 Points wins the game!
- Added NEW Game Mode: King of the Hill / Loadout Starts - Get to the Hill and stay inside it to score points. First to reach 100 Points wins the game!
- Added NEW Map: Metro / This map is a reimagining of Downtown. Downtown will be kept in the game.
- Added NEW Main Menu Stat: Players in Open Matches / This stat will tell you how many players are active in open matchmaking lobbies, if any are available. This should help with figuring out if anyone is searching for a match.
