Greetings, Spectators!
We're excited to release a massive technical overhaul for Spectator! It's one of the most important updates we've ever done. We've gone deep under the hood to rebuild the game's core, ensuring a smoother, faster, and more stable experience for everyone.
This "Refresh" is all about future-proofing the game and delivering the performance you deserve.
Key Highlights
Significant Performance Boost: Enjoy a much smoother and more stable framerate. We've optimized core systems to reduce stuttering and increase overall FPS across a wide range of hardware.
Controller & Mouse: You can play without limitation.
Reduced Loading Times: Get into the game faster than ever! We have completely reworked our file structure and asset loading, which has significantly cut down loading screens.
Engine Upgrade: Spectator now runs on the latest stable version of the Unity engine (with secure patches). This provides a more robust and secure foundation, and allows us to use modern technology to improve the game.
Performance & Optimization
Engine Migration: The entire project has been migrated to last Unity engine. This brings with it years of engine-level improvements, performance enhancements, and critical security patches.
Scripting Logic Overhaul: We have refactored and optimized hundreds of in-game scripts. This reduces CPU overhead, improves game logic responsiveness, and eliminates many legacy issues.
Optimized File Structure: The game's data architecture has been completely reorganized for more efficient data streaming and faster asset loading.
