Today's patch 16 includes a number of cool updates that make your experience in Skyfront a ton sleeker and more streamlined!
Team Deathmatch mode was long overdue for some TLC.
The Team Deatchmatch game mode now allows players to select their team. When you join Team Deathmatch, you will be asked, which team you want to join. As long as the match hasn't started, you have two additional chances to switch teams. Mid-match team changes will not be possible.
This patch brings a redesigned death screen, which now tells you both the name of your killer, as well as the weapon that killed you. In addition, the death screen will display your current killstreak, should you have gone on one.
Another major update concerns the weapon switch. When you have one weapon equipped, you can click on either side of the scrollwheel to bring up the other weapon. We hope the carousel weapon switch will make it easier and quicker to switch weapons mid-game.
To tweak the meta, we buffed the Locust minigun. A single bullet now does 30 HP damage, instead of the former 20. In addition, the bullet spread when you have the gun equipped with both hands has now been reduced to 0.
To top it off, the Gamehub match list now displays active match hosts instead of the original match creators.
And one bug fix as well:
- Removed a bug that caused the volume to go all the way down whenever a player changed the volume settings in-game.
