Patch Note Round Up 8/22-8/28/2016

Here is the weekly round up of the patch notes from the last week (The week of 8/22 to 8/28/2016)

The new ship the Ghastly Crow was added.

The Ghastly Crow has a Poison Gas ability that replaces the Barrel Bomb, it costs gold while its on and any enemies caught in its cloud take damage. While on you get a small speed buff after its been upgraded and on death your ship deploys a large cloud to take out your close ranged killer.

Now for the changes then the fixes of the week:

Changes:
Barrel Bomb level 0 added so it can be used from the start. However it does half damage and has a reduced blast radius compared to level 1.
Level 2 has been given an increased radius and does an extra 50 damage.

The new stats are:

Flat Damage: 50/100/150
% Max Health Damage: 5/10/20
Radius: 8/12.5/15
Cooldown: 15/15/15 second
Cost to fire: 50/50/50

The old:

Flat Damage: 100/100
% Max Health Damage: 10/20
Radius: 12.5/12.5
Cooldown: 15/15 seconds
Cost to fire: 50/50

Fixes:
Various fixes were added for the new ship that was found during our various playtests. Such as the fix for the glow on the front of the ship and to have it leave a bit of it's smoke ability where it dies.
Various fixes were added to the smoke ability such as it not triggering after being turned off on it's first use.

Fix on Hull Upgrades not registering after Ghastly Crow was added in.

Fix on Cannon ball collisions not registering properly after optimization pass.

As a warning soon a version check will be added to the lobby so you will only see matches that match your verison number. So make sure to stay updated.

Well that's it for this weeks roundup. I hope everyone is continuing to enjoy the game and we look forward to seeing you on the High Seas!
