Update 1.87

A quick heads-up that the update is already done, it should have gone out last week but there was one more thing we needed to do (you'll understand soon what that was) which delayed the update until Monday 20th of June.

Also wanted to give some concrete information on the new gamemode King of the Hill so that players know what it is and how it works:

King of the King is a new versus-type game mode where you play against 1,2 or 3 other players for the King of the Hill title.

Each player spawns from a corner of the map and the first player to reach the center 'bunker' of the map will become the King. Each time you level up while being King gives you one point. Collect 10 points to win the game.

If you die or leave the center 'bunker', you will stop being the King and the first player to (re)enter the bunker will take over the title. If other players are already inside the bunker area when the King dies, the player who has been there the longest will take over the title.

All players can see from the HUD who's currently the King, and also how many points all players currently have.

Throughout the game, you will automatically respawn in your map corner five seconds after you die. You will always keep all points collected while King but you'll need to become King again to start collecting more points.

In short: Only the King gets points for leveling up. (Of course all players can still select perks as usual when they level up).

In this mode, Friendly Fire cannot be set to Off. Only 'low' or 'high' is allowed. This is so that other players can try to help the zombies along to kill the current King to make him respawn in his corner and lose the title.

A new dedicated leaderboard will be available for this mode, and of course any ideas you have to make this mode better, please let me know here on on the forum!
