Patch Update 456 - Video by Hazel-Rah

[theFiringHand 21,351]

Tankers!

This morning’s server restart at 02:00 UTC brought lots of cool and interesting changes to the game.

To start off, we’ve made a number of balance changes for turrets and alterations. We won’t go into the details here, but you can find out all about the changes and why they happened in this special video by Lead Game Designer Semyon Strizhak aka Hazel-Rah.

P.S. Make sure you turn on subtitles.

Additionally, we have some great news for Premium users, who will now be receiving a daily bonus of 2500 crystals, 3 Repair kits, and 10 of each of the other supplies (with the exception of gold boxes). This bonus is constant and is not connected to rank. Of course, to get the maximum benefit out of your Daily Bonus, you will need to log in and claim it every day.

The update also brings a new type of Daily Mission where you have to earn crystals in battle. Some missions will require you to do so in a specific game mode such as CTF, while others will allow you to do so in whichever mode you wish.

Additionally, following your feedback, the Communicator Panel now remembers the last tab you were using, so you no longer have to switch from News to Chat every time. Of course, we still don’t want you to miss any important news, so if any new alerts come up while you’re away, the Communicator Panel will automatically show you the News window next time you log in.

NOTE: The News panel will automatically be displayed as long as there are unread alerts. To mark an alert as «read», simply click on it.

And finally, among the smaller changes, we’ve got a newly designed flag for CTF and a bunch of small fixes. As always, you can find the full details in the Patch Notes.

So, don’t forget to check out the changes in the game, and tell us what you think in the forum!

First

 

EDIT 1: So ashamed for doing this ^  -_-   :)

 

EDIT 2: It's a good idea making a video announcements by Hazel. At least now people will understand who is responsible for all the changes and not go after Cedric. However, I think there are more good changes than bad ones this time.

 

Please post a detailed log about the changes. That will complement the video nicely.

this update gonn be good

[Crip 4,735]

Hm, bad for my Hammer yet good for my Thunder. I might switch between my M3.5s now.

wow you get to see Hazel in a new light speaking his language , good work ( yea coming from me )

 

so the video it self needs to be a little slower due to you can't read the captions as fast as your talking ,lol I know that's the way Russians talk i get it I'm polish and Ukrainian .so its normal but not for others , just a little criticizing

 

so the only issue i see with this new patch would be the changes for isida players , to me will have to see the others in battle to get the real damage results to see if its good or bad. great work on not touching Ricochet would like to see splash damage removed due to flipping back from the side hurts us.. over all very impressive with the video . 

 

best advise to players is to stop and read the captions on the bottom , every few seconds to get the full chat

You have no idea what a hard time we had creating those captions lol. I'm falling to pieces... 14 hour day today (and yesterday too)

[FailArmyGT 210]

[III_Dope_III 319]

Awesome, not sure about the firebird alt though

[Crip 4,735]

Yes.

 

Thunder will deal more damage at long range, whereas there will be a positive change for Firebird's damage output.

 

 

You have no idea what a hard time we had creating those captions lol. I'm falling to pieces... 14 hour day today (and yesterday too)

Honestly, the captions are great. You do a great job and the whole community appreciate your efforts and the huge amount of your own energy that you inject into this game.

 

 

 

so the video it self needs to be a little slower due to you can't read the captions as fast as your talking ,

You can adjust the speed of the video you know. Go to "Settings" on the Youtube page, and simply change the speed at which it is played.

Magnum's improvement is good. Now it's easier to parkour with it.
