Major Additions and Changes:
This is the first of several massive updates for A Gentlemen's Dispute as we gear up for this February's Steam Next Fest.
Dedicated Servers
A Gentlemen's Dispute now runs on dedicated servers!
Enjoy a vastly improved game experience with support for many more items and much more chaos.
When you create a game, you may need to wait a few seconds for the server to start before you join the lobby. Players playing in the first few hours of the update may need to wait up to 30 seconds to start a game. Once the update has been out for a few hours it should take only 5-6 seconds.
Future updates will expand on this system, including matchmaking and team play.
Players in the same server can now chat with one another by pressing enter.
New Abilities
All Gentlemen must be trained in glove to glove combat!
If you press the use button without any item in your end you will now let loose a slap, knocking over players in range. Use this to defend yourself if you are out of options!
Additionally, you may now pick up downed nearby players and hold them over your shoulder. You have a few seconds to carry them around or press use to throw them in front of you. Players being carried can mash to escape so don't dilly-dally!
Cannons have now been expanded, allowing you to roll them forward and backward. You now use your look controls to rotate and angle the barrel.
