Latest Patch notes (9/17/2019) – Map Meltdown

Over the course of several internal playtests, we discovered some interesting things about our multiplayer maps: mainly that a few of them suck, and others should have been nuked from orbit entirely.

Unwilling to go through another match of being bottlenecked through two docks, Chris spent several nights rebuilding just about every map we have. We hope you and your friends appreciate his efforts!
