Today we introduce an important and long-awaited new feature to the game: faked insanity.
"wibble"
Players who do not participate in "going over the top" when the momentum shifts in their favor during a frontline match, and practice what some players in the community are calling "camping" or "cowardice" will be given two pencils and a pair of underpants, and declared insane. In addition they will be permanently renamed to "wibble" and all of their chat messages reduced to gibberish.
What the developers have to say:
"At M2H and BlackMill we have worked tirelessly for months to optimize this feature to encourage people to go over the top more during the frontlines game mode. Some players who are too afraid to attack stay behind and camp. this is a real problem for the gameplay. In this we have found a sound solution" - Developer Matt Hergaarden.
"Clearly this is one of the most important things we have worked on, besides the rats of course" - Developer Jos Hoebe
"yeah - that'd be epic" - Character Artist James Chilton
"The new update will be live later today, April 1st 2015" - Developer Mike Hergaarden
"Please study this classic video of great historical accuracy on which this feature has been based" - Historian Don Durandal
