This update was released in two parts (but I'm writing this announcement now) so you may have already noticed some of the changes!

WEAPONS

Flare Gun

Introducing the flare gun, a very powerful secondary explosive gun

  • It has a slightly smaller blast radius than the launcher, but sets enemies on fire and has a faster fire rate

  • It's also useful for grenade jumping! Shoot at your feet to get launched up, or jump and shoot at a wall to get launched sideways.

Black Hole Gun

  • The black hole gun is also an explosive gun, but works pretty differently to the other explosives in the game

  • Left click to fire a black hole, and right click after you've thrown it to freeze it wherever it is

  • From there it will suck in and trap enemies. It can be escaped by running if you're not too close or grapple/dash

  • After 5 seconds it explodes killing everyone in its radius, but be careful as it works on you too!

  • Useful for protecting flags, bases or areas

Gun Reworks

Banana Gun

  • You can now right click to rapid fire the banana gun (it's a lot less accurate at long range though

Freeze Gun

  • Fixed a bug that caused the recoil to go crazy and make it un usable

Burst

  • No more camera shake/recoil on this gun either

Mine launcher

  • Now deals 2X more damage

ABILITIES

Voodoo Doll

This is an always active ability. When you are damaged, your opponent takes 22% of the damage they deal to you, which lends you the advantage in every gun fight :)

Ammo Kit

This ability works super similarly to the med-kit in that it's excellent in both free for all and team modes (and in fact you can equip both the med kit and ammo kit!).

  • All allied players within its radius are granted a massive 1.5X fire rate and reload speed boost

NEW RANKING

You'll now rank faster because only a small proportion of players get to the final ranks and experience everything the game has to offer. There's now 20 ranks instead of 15 (with less XP per rank). - Your rank may change/increase this update based on the total amount of XP you have.

Other

  • New winter menu and music

  • New directional walk animations

  • Improved Russian, Spanish and Portuguese translations significantly

Bugs and polish

  • Strengthened the anti cheat measures

  • Coop minigame renamed to co-op for clarity

  • Added a tutorial for buying/equipping abilities

  • Fixed a bug where every ability was unlocked in the respawning armoury

  • The water gun/pressure washer stream now always faces forward

  • Fixed a bug with the smoke/bubble grenade where throwing it at your feet midair would cause it to explode on your feet

  • Fixed a bug with the costume (DLC) equipping in the armoury where it would get reset each time you loaded into the menu

  • Fixed a bug that caused the fire and freeze gun effects to not be applied

  • The maps shown in the map votes will now show up slightly more evenly

Holiday Coins Sale

Finally...one last note To celebrate the holiday season, until next update I've dropped the prices of all coins by 60%, which means (if you really wanted to) you could unlock every weapon skin in the game right now for $6.40 ;)

As always, enjoy the update & head on over to our discord server!
