Crucible Dev Tracker

wait, that's illegal

What region are you in?

That is correct.

I can’t speak for what that team is planning sorry. I’m not on that team and I don’t know the details. But I’ve heard them talk about it and I can say resolving people’s concerns is a very high priority for them.

Just to get ahead of this, I can confirm that our first Pre-Season update doesn't include voice chat. It's our top priority as a studio right now and we're shuffling internal resources to get it out sooner than we even originally planned, but it's not ready quite yet.

Changes:

• Increased the time allowed for players to connect to matches as well as the time allowed for players who drop out of queue to be replaced. While some matches may now take longer to load, this change will result in fewer cancelled games.
• Made an additional change to prevent Heart of the Hives matches starting with a 3 vs. 5 team imbalance.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug that caused Bugg's Crop Dust [E] ability to inflict permanent vulnerability.
• Fixed a bug that caused Summer's Magma Spiral [Q] ability to continuously apply damage to Bugg under certain circumstances.
• Fixed a bug that prevented profile icons from properly displaying in the Pre-Season Battle Pass rewards.

Developer’s note: Right now our focus is on resolving issues with connectivity, latency, and matchmaking as well as improving the success rate of the “backfill” feature which prevents m...

Thanks for the report - we're tracking the issue with the dummy hit boxes. In this particular case, the size of the hit boxes are out of whack.

This issue with the dummy hit boxes is different than hit reg issues seen in regular gameplay. Videos would be super useful for diagnosing those cases. Please post any links you might have!

• Fixed a bug related to matchmaking. Players now have a higher likelihood of getting a match in their local region.
• Updated the default game mode selection upon login. Players who have completed the tutorial will be shown Harvester Command as their default game mode when they log in. You can click on the game mode button to select a different mode.

Much appreciated for buying the founders pack! Voice and chat are a top priority for us. In the meantime, the official discord has some voice channels open, if you would like to try finding teams there.

Thank you for this, this is the hardest I've laughed in a while, and we'll be looking into the events interacting like that haha

Re: developer stream (or something to that effect) - we hear you. Our focus this week (and through the weekend) is to get the game stable, but starting a conversation about what's next is right around the corner.

Hey Viper,

We're investigating. I don't have any updates to share right now. Thanks for your patience.

Another update -> we just made some adjustments to Alpha Hunters matchmaking to help improve queue times.

Changes:

• Updated the visual effects for the game mode selection button to better indicate its functionality.
• Updated Alpha Hunters matchmaking rules to help reduce wait times.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug that caused some players to be stuck on a black screen before loading into a match with no enemies.
• Fixed a bug that caused some players to be stuck on a screen showing only the Crucible logo while attempting to connect to a match.
• Fixed a bug that caused some players to become stuck on the pre-match "Connecting" screen.
• Fixed a bug that caused Drakahl to occasionally be permanently invulnerable.

We've got a fix for this in our next build.

Thank you writing this out for us to take a look at! Really appreciate the feedback.

Thanks for elaborating, appreciate it.

I can also say that ranked is in the pipeline too!
