Hey there Robocrafters,
Today we wanted to let you know about some very important Quality of Life improvements coming to Robocraft with the Infinity Update - specifically, in-battle QoL.
Battle-ready Robots
There's nothing more annoying to both you and your teammates when you enter battle with a Robot that isn't battle-ready. So, with the Infinity Update we will be running a background 'battle-ready check' prior to a player queuing up for battle. If your Robot doesn't have Movement Parts and/or Weapons attached, then you'll be presented with a little pop-up and you won't be able to queue.
In-battle Settings
One of the many QoL requests from our players is the ability to access the game's main settings and control/keyboard mapping options in-battle. We're pleased to announce that both of these will be accessible in-battle when the Infinity Update launches this month.
In-battle UI Improvements
Finally, the observant of you may have already spotted this in our earlier reveals, but the in-battle UI is also getting a fresh lick of paint. We've made a number of improvements to the in-game UI and you'll see these in the screenshot below. Among these improvements is that players will now see the correct team colors on the kill-feed located above the mini-map.
As you can probably imagine, the Infinity Update is shaping up to be the biggest single update we've ever released for Robocraft. As such, there will be issues with it when we launch it later this month. The team are working incredibly hard on fixing the bugs and issues associated with the update, but it simply isn't possible for us to spot every single issue and so we're going to need your help. Once the update is live and you see something unexpected or broken, please do let us know so we can fix it as quickly as possible.
Happy gaming!
