General Updates

Report Feedback Notification

A notification will now be displayed on login when action has been taken against a player that you have recently reported for misconduct! This notification will appear once when you log in if applicable, so y’all good fellas reporting naughty gremlins will not be spammed with notifications.

UI

  • Daily quest notifications should now properly trigger upon login.
  • Fixed an issue where achievements related to Champion Levels did not progress correctly.
  • Season quests tab will now jump directly to current week when entered

Gameplay Updates

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a bug where it was possible to drop items when dead.
  • Anti-Teaming Countermeasure disabled in private games.

Match Start Timer

Royale matches now start as soon as a clear majority of players are connected. You’ll no longer have to wait for the final few stragglers. Overall wait time has also been reduced. Less waiting, more gaming!

  • Match goes to reduced timer as soon as 80% of players connect (rather than 100% of players)
  • Maximum wait time reduced from 90s to 80s
  • Timer after players connect reduced from 30s to 20s

Death Vortex Timings

Further adjustments have been made to the death vortex to improve the pacing in the late game. The vortex now closes considerably faster for the final two circles, reducing the maximum game length from 13 minutes 20 seconds to 12 minutes flat. Overall, this change reduces the percentage of time the vortex is closing from 42.5% to ~35%. Players who are able to keep ahead of the circle are rewarded for their decision-making.

  • Circle 5
    • Delay increased from 35 to 45
    • Shrink Duration reduced from 90 to 30
  • Circle 6
