Diabotical is now available for free on the Epic Games Store: https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/product/diabotical/home
I feel cheated by the variable time limit. I like 12 minutes, but what i get is 6 or 7 minutes. This is a joke. In QL i am getting 10 minutes, period.
Another problem is what is happening after the match. I can only play like 3 matches against the same opponent. And the decision to leave is made outside of the map in a menu, enough time to think about not wanting a rematch. Compared to QL i seldomly getting a rematch. Also in QL i can just play my opponent as many times as i like. Also in QL i can see which people are on servers and playing. In DBT i wait for some magic to happen and i can’t estimate the likelihood of getting a game.
In Diabotical in the Play menu you can click on the Create Lobby button, set the visibility to public, set game mode to Duel Classic, select Duration: 10 minutes, start the game and wait for a player to join through the match list (this doesn't use or affect skill ratings).
4v4 Wipeout has been moved from the Quick Play list to the Ranked list and now has a separate skill rating than Arena 2v2 and its own Leaderboard.
they're still combined on the leaderboards it seems
They are not combined, the starting Wipeout skill ratings are the Aim Arena 2v2 skill ratings as they were affected by Wipeout matches before today.
So to be clear server-side replays are only available with custom lobby?
Only available for the host of a custom lobby who turns the server-side replay recording setting on. That option is only available for owners of the current season's battlepass.
Edit: the option for other participants to download the replay will be available soon
Once someone abandons the match everyone is free to leave without a penalty.
Leaving the match will start a 2 minute timer until that person is declared to have abandoned the match, to allow that person to rejoin if there was game crash/computer crash/internet issue (the option to rejoin or abandon the match appears for that player).
After 1 minute there is a warning and after 2 minutes/when a person has abandoned the match there is a message in the chat which says that it's safe to leave.
Air knockback for shaft is completely messed up right now.
Should be fixed now in 0.20.445d
@Raven, is the game designed so we should be able to use wee balls while holding the flag? I wish there were separate binds to drop flag than use weeball..
The keybind/hud element is meant to prevent using weeballs while having the flag
u/2GD I know you won't reveal too much, but could you, at least, tell us if these new games are going to be dbt spinoffs and if the are going to be built on the Glitch engine?
Glitch engine, FPS. All engine updates will benefit Diabotical and future games
Hey everyone. The test tournament series is coming to a close over the next 2 months. Though a horrible name. It was a nice test for esports longevity, game modes, broadcasting and more.
After we have fulfilled our obligations to the test tournament series and the grassroots fund. We will continue to do esports with mojo as our esport manager, but with a focus on grassroots tournaments.
To the pro players who compete in the 3v3 circuit. To explain my decision here, since we have spoken of potentially continuing the circuit. I think it’s best we focus using available funds on improving Diabotical and achieving company goals.
To be as open as possible about the details behind this decision. The 3v3 circuit in 2021 if to be continued and matured as a product, would probably cost upwards of 400k USD. We have quite a clear plan for 2021 and 2022. Which involves regular Diabotical updates, but also releasing two new games. The projected budget we have (battle ...

- Skybreak
- Bioplant
- Kasbah
- Monolith
- Overgrowth
- Amberfall
- Raya
this is pending final licensing and polishing/art so maps are ultimately subject to change :\)
The tentative list was done by pro gamer votes. So if anyone is unhappy we would like to shift the blame to Phaze. Phaze was the only pro gamer who turned up to vote. though quite odd since he doesn't compete in duel. Thank you for your time.
