- Leaving a training match before it ends won’t apply any penalty to the account.
- Closing the game client for any reason during a training match will end it immediately.
Bots A.I.
- The A.I. has been improved, and bots are now less likely to drive over droppers.
Bugs Fixed
- Fixed a bug that made the chat appear when pressing Alt+Enter to enter Fullscreen or Windowed mode.
- Fixed a bug that made the character or skin model selection change while pressing some keys when the game was not focused (a.k.a while you are Alt-tabbin')
- Fixed a bug that made the screen randomly flash during a match.
- Fixed some visual issues at the acid in the Temple of Sacrifice and some rocks in Metal God Arena.
- Fixed a bug that allowed players to open the emote’s radial menu while the match is loading.
- Fixed an interface bug that kept the cooldown cursor appearing while using a gamepad.
- Fixed a bug that was preventing the skin models’ names appear in the purchase confirmation window.
