Patch Notes: Beta v1.18.2

Thanks for all the bug reports and feedback. We just pushed live a minor patch this morning before the weekend. Some slight gameplay changes included as well.

Gameplay

• Decreased dodge immunity frames by 1.

• Decreased input buffer from 4 frames to 3 frames. (Felt a little sticky at 4)

• Increased time after attack before you can dodge by 1 frame.

• Changed how signature cooldowns work. Now there is a fixed 12 frames between global signature cooldown regardless of which signature you moved before. (Goal is to keep some of the punish without the controls feeling sticky and allowing a little bit of baiting. Also a consistent timer makes it more learnable, variable cooldowns per character were tough to learn.)

Networking

• Removed frequent resends from 1.18 as it had an adverse affect on normal non-high packet loss gameplay. Will rework.

• Lowered server forgiveness threshold on late packets (from 7 to 6). Shouldn't affect normal gameplay latency, should decrease the intensity of the larger rollbacks.

• Changed how server deals with late packets by restamping slightly less forgiving.

• Capacity of EU Server doubled.

• Players can now change what region they are playing in from the User Settings tab of the User Account screen. This will also change your default server selection for custom lobbies you host.

Bugs

• Asuri Lore is now accessible.

• Fixing missing costume name for Asuri.

• Fixed missing stances for Asuri.

• Additional Mac support for Xbone controller.

• Fixed bug where the first 15 heroes weren't unlocked after your second login even though you were a founder.

• DealWithIt shades now work with Lynx skin on Asuri.
