We're really excited about this update, and hopeful that the servers will start filling up with players more frequently. We added two big features to help with this: the ability to join games that are already in progress, and the ability to shoot bots while waiting for other players to join. No more waiting around in lobbies -- just click the Join Game button to get going!
Here's the full list of changes:
- No more watching paint dry while waiting for multiplayer matches. Shoot bots while waiting for other players to join!
- Now auto-connecting you to any available in-progress match (unless you're partying up), instead of forcing you to start a new lobby and wait.
- New HAWK class model.
- Added death animations and explosions in multiplayer.
- Made ZONER's teleporter recharge a little slower, to make ZONER not OP.
- New music that won't get flagged by YouTube's Content ID system.
- Robotics World game map now has brighter lighting.
- Fixed multiplayer scores showing up as 0 during a match (press the left controller menu button to see scores and settings).
- Fixed HAWK's holodouble head not visible if you're the player who deployed it.
