We will publish one more map update over the winter holidays and then continue our regular schedule of 20 maps per week in 2021.

While these winterized maps are of a temporary nature, we also have a bunch of features and improvements that are meant to stay:

Performance Improvements

We shipped a performance update that makes network rollbacks on the client way faster. Players with slower connections should see the greatest improvements, since slow connections lead to a lot of rollbacks.

And more

Additionally, we have upgraded the spawn areas for both teams:

Attacker Truck

The truck doors now have an animation when opening as well as playing a sound. To make it even more obvious that you should get moving, the truck now features a light that switches from red to yellow near the end of the planning phase and finally to green for execution.

Defender Room

The defender weapons are now placed in neat little cages and got reorganized a bit to make it easier to pick them up.
