Scheduled Maintenance and Release Notes - 28th June, 2017

(Chris Mullins) #1

Hey all!

Tomorrow (28th June, 2017) we’re pushing out a small update with zero downtime to fix a couple of issues and improve Ranked match balance.

When:

  • London (BST, UTC+1): 10:00
  • Los Angeles (PST, UTC-8): 02:00
  • Sydney (AEDT, UTC+11): 21:00

Full Changelog

User Interface

  • Fixed bug where different XP scores where shown between the end of the game and post-game Lobby
  • Fixed bug where Credits Boosters could not be activated
    Credit Boosters are now re-enabled in the Store
  • Fixed bug where you could Craft a Loadout Card for an incorrect Merc
  • Fixed bug where Friends playing Ranked were shown to be in the main menu and not in a match

Text and Localization

  • Fixed bug where ‘Character Detail’ and ‘Animation Quality’ used the same tool-tip description
  • Fixed bug where in some languages the amount of XP left until your next level didn’t fit the tool-tip

Ranked

  • Updated Ranked Matchmaking algorithm to improve match balance
    This will make queue times slightly longer, however we’re keeping a close eye on this and will adjust accordingly

Thanks,
shoe.

Wanna bet that “skill boost” was coded wrong and instead of making premade mmr rating higher it was lowering it ?

Am i correct @stayfreshshoe ?

I’m going “all in” on this bet of yours.

Today I was playing solo with 4 other silvers against a 5 pre-made team that consisted out of different golds and a cobalt. And that’s just one of the many times

Ranked matched take far too long to matchmake, waited 20 mins on a match the other day then just gave up, seriously need to get a better system :frowning:

Bad enought its almoast july dont make it july already. This year is going way to fast as is.

(TheOmniscient) #18

@stayfreshshoe If this doesn’t change, im quitting. Now waiting over 90 minutes for a lobby. I have supported this game, dumped hundreds in, but revert these changes asap and try something new. Or im out and not spending another dime till this is fixed.

Also, its been 2 years, can we finally have potent packs work for aura?

After changes.

I dont give a flying fuck if duppi and co were waitng an hour in a que, i do NOT want to be matched as a solo player against that.

I told you its fucking idiotic to allow premades in solo que, it should be SOLO ONLY, i am just constantly punished for playing solo.

Ask that genius that allowed premades in solo Q to explain to me and rest of the solo players how do you plan on balancing high level premades, just fucking tell him to get here and explain that to me like i am 5 fucking years old.

Spoiler: you fucking cant balance that.
