New, Shiny App Icon!
Visual Polish
- We have polished several areas in the game with new visuals and updated information.
- Hero Info
- Hero Promotion
- Team Level Up
- Daily Log-in Screen
Quick Win Tickets in PvP Crates
-
With the addition of Quick Win for everyone, there is no need for QW tickets in the higher tiered PvP Crates
- Competitor/Champion Crate Quick Win tickets are removed, replaced with a larger variety of Hero Frags
- Adjustment to amount of XP items being given out (increased for Rookie/Competitor/Challenger, reduced for Champion)
- Slightly higher chance for Bucks in Champion Crate
Camera Changes
- Reduced Camera bounce from shooting, to create a smoother experience. Changes to Camera shake from explosives.
Armor and Elemental Armor Changes
- Elemental Armor will now mitigate damage recieved regardless of vulnerability. This change noticably improves the damage reduction provided by Elemental Armor. However, the overall damage reduction provided by Base Armor and Elemental Armor has been adjusted to make weapons feel more consistent.
PvP Win & Tie Conditions
- When the match timer expires, victory will be awarded to the team with more surviving Heroes. If both teams have the same number of Heroes remaining the match will end in a Tie.
Stagger Reduction
- Staggering a target applies a minor protection period. This prevents a character from being repeatedly staggered multiple times in quick succession.
Store Improvements
-
New Confirmation Button for all Special Promotion Offers: Worry not about accidental purchases with our new Confirmation Button!
-
Improved Purchase Button Experience: All purchases made with in-game currencies can be identified with orange colored buttons! -
New Confirmation Button added when purchasing Store Restocks.
-
Improved Crate Claim and Purchase Menu: We moved the Free Crate Claim button in the Crate Store Menu to reduce double-tapping and accidental Crate purchases!
-
Improved the Free Crate experience and notifications: it’s now easier to identify when a Free Crate is available and claim it! We’ve addressed that gripe where it took too many taps to claim your Free Crate.
-
Special thanks to our Community of Hunters for your feedback and patience! These improvements and changes wouldn’t be possible without your voices!
