Update 1.7.0

Welcome to Update 1.7.0!

Our Summer Splashdown event may have ended, but that doesn't mean our summer festivities are over just yet!

Check out the trailer below for a quick overview on the update:

Last update, we temporarily disabled the localization feature from the game, as a result of a bug that caused issues when it came to properly translating languages. Unfortunately, we were unable to fix it in time for this update as we are currently rewriting the entire localization system, making it more optimal, improved and getting it ready for future language introductions. We hope to have working by next update, if not then the next one after that.

This week, we're treating you to (yet) another summer event: Firework Bonanaza! In this event, you can explore brand new map changes, nab a fresh batch of cosmetics and, most importantly, fire some sweet explosive fireworks with our new permanent arsenal addition, the RPG!

And last, but certainly not least, enter code 4THOFJULY in your account tab for a free gift!

Here's the full list of changes:

STORE

• AddedNew store bundleBig League Set; features a new outfit, backbling and glider

• Free limited-time store bundle: Summer Cookout Set: includes a outfit and backbling

• Extended the store date for the Summer Days Set; it will now leave on July 11

WEAPONS

RPG

• A explosive rocket launcher, can only be fired once before requiring a lengthy reload

Super Soaker

• Removed from loot pool

USER INTERFACE

• Improved the GUI of eliminations along with victory and defeat screens

• Renamed Season Shop to "Season Pass"

• Added a new shop section: Bundles

  • AddedDev noteTo make the shop less cluttered, we made a new section that is dedicated to bundles only, instead of making them take up space reserved for special offers. All bundles will be located here from now on, but if a bundle is marked as "limited-time" then they will be there until the date labeled on them passes.

FIXES

• Fixed Fightbot3000's additional style not correctly showing up in matches

• Fixed an issue where the Emotijon backbling couldn't be earned when at the correct level

• Fixed incorrect pricing on store items

• Fixed the Lobby background animation effects appearing on incorrect UI screens

• Fixed an issue where outfits that players didn't own would show in the Lobby

• Fixed an issue with the Lobby effects suddenly disappearing on the correct UI screen

  • Dev note: We solved this issue by significantly increasing the amount of effects and clones that the game is limited to, however we are aware that this may cause some issues regarding the game's stability so we will be closely monitoring this fix into next week's update.
