The answers were almost unanimous, and our development team has already made some changes to correct the balance! The Megadon has had its speed and armor rating lowered. A fix has been submitted as well for the burning grenade exploding on the Megadon’s shield. You can now fire your grenade across the map with your shield up!

Beta Testing Updates

To get started, there have been updates based on player testing feedback this month!! We polled our beta testers, asking what drone is the most OP. The answers were almost unanimous, and our development team has already made some changes to correct the balance! The Megadon has had its speed and armor rating lowered. A fix has been submitted as well for the burning grenade exploding on the Megadon’s shield. You can now fire your grenade across the map with your shield up!

VFX

Reimagined blasts for Shotguns, Rifles, and Machine Guns!

In VFX the muzzle blast and first person views have been in our sights and some really incredible work has been done. The shotgun, machine gun, and rifle have all had their muzzle blasts reimagined and re-created this month. Thrusters also have been updated to no longer be visible when in first person view.

UI

Finalizing the UI has been a major push throughout February

The Party system is in! This has been worked into the new UI seamlessly. We can now squad up!

Hovering support added to UI elements.

Tally screen updated to remove blur.

Scorecard player images now work with non default drone skins.

Leaderboard images corrected to show Sky Link profiles.

Prematch screen has been corrected to auto update for all screens and always shows the local player first now.

Contracts UI anchored and resized to properly fit into the scene.

SFX

Explosions and more!

The audio distance calculation has been adjusted to make gunfights sound much more tight, clear and punchier.

Kill confirmed SFX edited to be more in line with Sky Link’s announcer.

Fixed issue where missile sound continued playing after the round ended.

Proximity mine explosion has been reimagined with a quicker more explosive sound.

Lots of changes and more yet still to come. 2024 is flying by, so be sure to mark Friday’s beta test on your calendar, we fly at 4 PM EST!

Meet us at GDC!

Next month, March 18th through the 22nd, Odisi will be going to the Game Developers Conference and we’d love to meet you there! Join us at the event, or play from home!
