Mini-Map v1.0

Our initial implementation of a mini-map is in! The mini-map lives in the upper left corner of your heads-up display (HUD) and gives players critical gameplay information. You can, of course, still use the larger map to ping locations and see the state of things in more detail. This first version of the mini-map shows:

• Your location and facing direction
• Ally locations
• The location of enemies detected by you or your teammates
• Hives, hive telegraphs, and hive hearts
• Incoming objectives
• Active objectives
• Pings

Developer's note: As part of this change and because much of the information in the compass was duplicated by the mini-map, we've removed the compass from the HUD. We’re going to continue to examine how we can best use the space in the HUD to convey critical information, and we’ll keep an eye on feedback to changes like this.

Hey Jay! Sorry if you feel that you haven't been heard by us, but I promise we're listening :) . We've definitely heard the concerns over the feel of combat. Improving the feel of combat is on the roadmap, is something we've updated in the last few patches, and is something that we'll be continually working on. We do appreciate the ongoing feedback - especially on the changes we've been making and what we can continue to do.

Completely understandable. We're still finalizing the plans for this, but are getting a lot closer to being able to announce/share those plans out.

Hey everyone,

Welcome to this week's feedback thread! We’d love to hear your thoughts on all things Crucible.

Here’s some guidelines for giving great feedback:

· Give details and examples: Be specific, explain the issue fully. The more detail you provide, the better that your readers will understand the point you're trying to make.

· Suggest improvements: While detailing a problem is the first step in solving an issue, don't be afraid to put some thought into how you'd solve the problem.

· Avoid making it personal: Resist the temptation to argue with a person, but by all means debate a point being made. On the same note, do not be offended if someone disagrees with your opinion or suggests alternatives to an idea you’ve put forth.

Gotta love when it happens

Thanks for feedback (and cool presentation of it) :) I'll make sure the team takes a look!

Looking forward to it :)

We <3 all the feedback we can get!

No new patch this week, but you can read about what we'll be doing for future releases in the dev update from earlier this week: https://www.playcrucible.com/en-us/news/articles/developer-update-july-22

Thanks for posting all of these :)

Hey everyone,

Welcome to this week's feedback thread! We’d love to hear your thoughts on all things Crucible, and we have a few specific questions to get you started:

Is there anything you think is missing from our public roadmap? https://trello.com/b/zS6QIJfM/crucible-beta-roadmap

Are there any areas you perceive as unbalanced?

You’re not limited to the above. If you’d want to write a wall of text, we’ll read it!

Here’s some guidelines for giving great feedback:

· Give details and examples: Be specific, explain...

Can you share the error you're encountering? We fixed this with an update shortly after launch - any information would be helpful

they're part of our new ping system, which is more contextual around the specific objectives and scenarios you may encounter in a game of Crucible - so you should be able to communicate more effectively with your team.

We understand that queue times may be longer while Crucible isn't available for download on Steam (outside of us sending waves of keys every month) so during Closed Beta, we recommend showing up to the weekly Closed Beta test every Friday from 11AM - 5PM Pacific time. Our dev team and other players will be logging on to play during that window, so you shouldn't have a problem finding a match during that window.

There's also a ping-able role you can sign up for in the Discord to be notified when players are organizing pick-up games outside of the weekly playtest.

We're looking at the tournaments (and feedback from them) every week. We have some projects in the works to address player feedback while in Closed Beta; you can check out our roadmap here: https://trello.com/b/zS6QIJfM/crucible-beta-roadmap

If there are are things you think are missing from the roadmap, let us know in the feedback thread for the weekly Closed Beta test! We appreciate all the feedback we can get.

Thanks for the report! What challenges are bugged for you?

We're working on some map adjustments to tailor the map to better fit Heart of the Hives that will hopefully help address your concerns. We'll be looking for any and all feedback when that releases to make sure we've addressed the concerns around map size / traversal

Absolutely :)

Thanks for putting this video together, and providing feedback! We are working on a few of these issues;
Mini-map and map adjustments are on their way - you can check out our public roadmap here: https://trello.com/b/zS6QIJfM/crucible-beta-roadmap

Looks like Kalo let you know how to mute players already!

Thanks for the feedback on all these topics!
