New Mode: Gun Game
This patch introduces the first bonus game mode “Gun Game”.
- This mode is a free-for-all race to the finish as players change weapons with each kill
- As this is Savage, Melee will always also be available
- Deaths in this mode will set you back 1 weapon progress and change your Race
- This option will occasionally be available via the end match map vote
- Tell us what you think about this bonus mode right here on the community forum! Also, let us know if you think of a better name.
There are a few bugs but we're ready for some initial testing. The bonus modes are a personal side project of mine so don't worry about them taking time away from Savage :D
