Hello inmates,
We’ve got a smaller patch for you this week that follows up on some features introduced in 1.10. These changes are coming to Steam on Tuesday, May 8. (We’ll update with the specific time when we can).
UPDATE: Maintenance for patch 1.10.1 will be from 11 AM to approximately 12 PM EDT (3 PM to 4 PM UTC).
In case you missed it on our social channels over the last couple days: On Friday we fixed an issue with Show Directors not earning Fans and gave them a roster of Powers proportional to their number of matches played when patch 1.10 went live. On Sunday, we fixed an issue with Show Directors being unable to direct Duos matches. Now you're all caught up! Check out the next changes in full below.
See you in the arena!
Revised Rating Requirements for Show Director Powers
Thanks for your feedback, Show Directors! Our original Rating requirements allowed only a small fraction of Show Director players to use the full suite of currently available Powers, so we’ve lowered them to the following:
Warm Up - 2.5
Give Wood - 2.5
Electronic - 2.5
Close Zone - 2.5
Speed Up - 3
Expose - 3
Electro-mania - 3
Telepathy - 3
Blood Moon - 3
Heal - 3.5
Gravity Storm - 3.5
Nuke - 3.5
Manhunt - 3.5
We also removed these requirements in Private Matches, allowing Show Directors to use any Power they have obtained during Private Matches regardless of their Rating.
Gameplay
- Updated the default set of Powers available to Show Directors: - Give Wood x 2 - Warm Up x 1 - Electronic x 2 - Close Zone x 2 - Nuke x 1
