After a week of testing and tweaking, we’re happy to announce that we have officially launched Custom Games Mk1. We’ve been blown away by your love and support for the new mode and we’re continually amazed by your Custom Games creativity – keep those YouTube videos coming; we love ’em.
In addition to officially launching Custom Games Mk1. we’ve added the much-requested Robits to all reward crates; this includes end of battle crates, purchased crates, daily login crates and level up crates too!
There’s also a new Ninja Mask Cosmetic too – we kinda snuck that one out there all ninjery like.
As usual, we’ve made some other improvements and fixed a stack of bugs too
NEW:
Custom Games Mk1 - Custom Games has taken a LOT of development effort to support. We’ve had to rework our entire server infrastructure and lobby code to enable it. We’re releasing Custom Games in four stages; the first, the MK1 release, we will official release tomorrow. The reason we’re splitting it up like this is to get the feature to you as quickly as possible, by doing it in steps we can get it to you quicker and get it stable faster and learn from the way you are using the feature and feedback on the feature when it’s live.
In Custom Games Mk1 you can invite 1-9 players to play private games, choose game mode, choose map, and host a private custom games chat channel
Robits in crates - All players will now have the opportunity to receive Robits in all salvage reward crates. Robits will be dropped into crates randomly - the same as all other items. The drop rates and Robit reward amounts are:
Ninja Mask Cosmetic - Channel your inner-ninja with the awesome ninja mask cosmetic that’s now available in the game. You can forge the parts or find them in crates
OTHER CHANGES:
Based on your feedback from the Custom Games Mk1. Alpha test last week, we’ve made a number of changes and improvements to some of the Custom Games user-interface.
Friend/Clan drop-down added to Custom Games and Party widgets. To invite more players to a Custom Game or Party the leader simply clicks on the ‘plus’ icon in the appropriate team and then invites players, either by typing in the username or by clicking on a friend/clanmate who is currently online from a scrollable drop down list that appears.
User-interface improvements to the Custom Games Widget in both Edit and Garage Modes
When a Custom Game leader queues up, all other players will now see a dialogue stating ‘Your party is waiting for you’
