Halloween 2018 Update

Update 10/26/2018

Hello All,
This week’s patch includes many changes and updates.

World Update - Halloween!!

Halloween is almost here and the Isle of Thera is ready! The map features new lighting, art and an environment theme to get ready for the holiday. Jump in today and play in the mode for a limited time.

Something spooky lurks ahead...

A ghostly aura encompasses the Isle.

Leaderboard

The leaderboard was fixed and updated last week. As we had said previously, we are running a short monthly leader contest that will run until the remainder of the month. We wanted to honor the player who has led the boards for most of early access, inflameZ, until the contest ends at the end of the month. You will be able to find statues honoring inflameZ's achievement throughout the world. Upon conclusion of each month, the leading player will have their statue patched into the game soon after the month ends.

Spectating

We have added the ability for players to spectate other players upon death. In single-player mode, you will be able to cycle among the remaining players to view their gameplay. In duo and team modes you will be able to spectate your team while players on your team remain. When all players are eliminated, you may spectate the remaining players.

• Enabled Spectate in all gameplay modes.
• Players may hit Next to cycle to next player.
• When players want to exit, they may click the Back button and this will take them back to their finish screen to exit the match.

Gameplay

• Fixed several localization issues. Players should now see text that is appropriate for their selected language.
• An option to always run has been added to the options menu for players
• Fixed several impact sound issues with thrown weapons and arrows
• Reduced the amount of time between several of the middle circles reducing match time by approximately 3 minutes.
• Added a 1-second cooldown to speed potions to prevent players from accidentally using more than one at a time
• Fixed issues where clothing would not equip when changing your appearance
• Fixed issue with debuffs and buffs not displaying when mounted.
• Reduced the damage of fire arrows from 120% weapon damage to 100%

UI & Store

• Simplified store layout for ease of navigation.
• New items have been added to the store.
• Item purchase flow has been simplified.

We’re excited to bring you the first of many events and hope to see you in the game!

Sincerely,

Industry Games
