17 de sep. de 2024

General  

  • SEASON 3 BEGINS! There is a new Season 3 BATTLEPASS now available!

Rifts 

The “Naptime is Over” PvE Rift is NOW AVAILABLE! 

The “Batman Megamix” PvE Rift has been added and will unlock later in the season: 

Rift Updates 

  • Gems can now be leveled up to level 20 instead of level 10, but total maximum XP and maximum strength are unchanged. Current gems will scale to their new level based on their current XP, and level 10 gems will scale to level 20 gems with the start of Season 3. 
  • Rift difficulties are now unlocked based on total gem XP rather than the average level of the player’s top 3 gems. 

Rift Combat Updates 

  • Updated several level actors to support controller rumble feedback 

Ranked 

  • If you have a character in Diamond / Master, other characters will be adjusted to Silver V / Gold V on their first game respectively 
  • Fixed a bug causing RP calculation to read inaccurate skill ratings 
  • Defeating players of a higher tier than you now has a higher minimum RP gain before MMR is accounted for 
  • Losing to players of a higher tier than you now has a lower maximum RP loss

Note: We started with a light touch, if we feel RP gains aren’t appropriate for a significant difference in ranks, we will tune further via server hotfixes

  • Base progression in lower tiers has been toned down a bit as there are now multiple mechanisms to accelerate high skill and experienced players 
  • Matchmaking favors games with players within a single tier, but may still fallback to two tiers 
  • Pre-made groups are assigned their MMR by the strongest player for both placement and RP calculations 
  • Raised the target MMR for Master 
  • Master I players will decay RP for inactivity 

Coming In a Future Patch: Win Streaks will be displayed in face-off 

Unranked + Ranked: 

  • We now use OpenSkill to calculate MMR instead of a customized version of Glicko for matchmaking.  This should result in new and returning players getting more appropriate games.

General Combat 

Movement Changes 

We are looking to increase fighter movement in the air to improve feel, allow more approach options, and increase player skill expression. Character-specific movement changes are listed in the character patch notes, but the general changes are listed here: 

  • Certain air attacks now maintain more momentum when executed as part of a dodge attack

Additional Changes

  • Automatic tech animations are canceled immediately if a fighter is forced into the air for any reason 
  • Certain ground dodge animations have been sped up so fighters are less likely to have trailing hurtboxes when their invulnerability ends 

General Bugfixes

The Rage mode changes will also address the dominance a team gained during this timeframe and level the playing field.

Marvin 

While successful from a distance, Marvin was lacking ways to properly box with opponents in a meaningful way. We have improved Marvin’s overall combo game, and made him easier for a newer player to pick up and try. This includes a return to his Neutral Special (Button) being an active part of his kit as a combo starter.

Marvin was also experiencing moments where projectiles would not hit an opponent after dodging it at any time, we are looking into a fix for this in an upcoming patch. Neutral special has been adjusted to address part of this issue in this patch.

Tom & Jerry 

A majority of Tom & Jerry’s focus revolved around using Up Attack as the all or nothing attack option due to its reward for hitting, and also Tom & Jerry’s lack of other safe approach tools outside of zoning. This led to gameplay in which passive play was the primary choice until you could find a hit with the Up Attack.

With this patch we have adjusted the Up Attack to prevent loops into itself, and resetting with jab. We have also improved their gameplay to allow more unique exploration of the kit with new combo routes.
