Competitors! It's time for another update.
In this update we are adding player statistics, difficulty scaling, Eliminations toggle, bumped max Halo Rank and new emotes. Read on for more details!
New Levels
Today we have added 6 new challenging levels to the pool. We hope you enjoy them!
Let It Rip
Comb
Merry-Go-Round
Hop Drop And Roll
The Raft
Beams Beyond
Progressive Difficulty
Last month we ran a survey on our Discord server to determine how difficult the community finds each level. Based on this data, we have been able to add a feature to matches where earlier rounds will feature easier levels and later rounds will feature more difficult levels.
When creating a custom game, you will also see the general difficulty indicator for each level so that you can pick the right selection of levels for your group. Green is "easiest" and red is hardest. You can also disable progressive difficulty in custom games using a new setting.
Player Statistics
You can now go to your Customization screen and see your global player statistics. The data for these stats will start tracking from today onwards. We plan to implement Personal Bests here in the near future too so you can keep a track of your fastest times per level. Here are the stats we are adding for now:
- Games won
- Levels finished
- Win ratio
- Times jumped
- Metres travelled
- Jumps done
- Jump pads used
- Deaths by laser
- Deaths by falling
Eliminations setting for custom games
You can now disable Eliminations when creating custom games. This means even if you lose in a round, you will not spectate in the next one and will be able to play instead. On the final round, the first player to the end will still be deemed the winner. We hope this will make casual lobbies with your friends more enjoyable!
Halo Rank cap increased to 30
The maximum Halo Rank has been increased to 30. Good luck winning those next Halos!
