At some point, yes.

No, projectiles spawn from your logical origin which is always horizontally centred and independent of the presentation settings of the weapon model.

Shaft is more sensibly sized since 353b. We'll keep tweaking them all. Also, there are some particle effects that were done assuming rightward positioning and will need specialised versions.

Gameplay

• Items now respawn during the warmup state

Stability/performance

• Fixed a resource leak causing performance degradation over long game sessions - thank you to neeple for testing

Visual changes

• In Settings-More settings, there is now an option to select what type of damage numbers are seen, outgoing (the potential damage of the hit) and incoming (the damage received by the player which depends on the health they had left) the default is now outgoing damage so that it's clearer how much damage a hit can do - this does not effect the damage number
• In Settings-More settings, there is now an option to see the first person weapon model in center of the screen

Maps

• Collision fixes to Perilous, Icefall, Furnace, Toya Fortress, and Refinery

Masterserver and matches

• It's now possible to queue Quick Play and Ranked while in a Public Custo...

• In Ranked the Team Card no longer has 4v4 MacGuffin

Netcode

• Fixed a bug in server-side netcode causing the first player in a multiple-hit penetrating PnCR shot to receive all the damage
• Fixed a bug in server-side netcode causing team-mates to incorrectly block penetrating PnCR shots

Stability/performance

• Tentative fix for a crash in the UI engine used in the menu screens happening sometimes when leaving a game, starting a game, or switching to the menu - thanks to Coherent (makers of the Gameface UI engine)

Visual changes

• The Vanguard's powerup effect is blue now
• Tweaked the Extinction ghost highlight e...

What's your Epic Games name?

The last threads still have multiple things to address which are not forgotten, but I'll create this to separate some of the solved problems from last week and issues that players find during this week

Week 1 - Bug Report Thread

...

Gameplay

• The default win condition of Instagib Duel changed from highest score at the Time Limit of 5 minutes to highest score at the Time Limit of 4 minutes and first to 25 frags (whichever is reached first)
• Instagib Duel's overtime has been reduced from 2 minutes to 1 minute

Masterserver/matches

• It's now possible to join Warmup as a party - when the party leader clicks the "Party Join"button all party members will join the same server, party members can still join warmup by themselves whenever they wish but will be brought along to a server with the rest of the party if the party leader clicks "Party Join", the party leader can play Warmup without bringing party members by clicking the "Join" button instead
• Some ranked matchmaking balance fixes (more will be coming soon)

Stability/Performance

• Fixed a crash happening sometimes when switching enemy colors
• Fixed a crash happening...

This is one of our top priorities now.

Can you open windows explorer/a folder and paste %ProgramData%/EQU8 then upload startup.log and diabotical.log and give me a download link, you can do so if you dm me on Discord http://discord.gg/diabotical or using a service/website that allows you to upload files like https://filebin.net/ or Google Drive, Dropbox

Gameplay

• New Mode! In Custom Games it's now possible to play Instagib Duel

To answer some common questions about the Shop and Battle Pass:

(this is an explanation of how things are at the moment, it is possible that changes will come in the future, if there are changes they will be announced)

Shop

• Coin PacksIn the Epic Games Store and in the Shop it’s possible to buy Coin Packs, the first purchase of each of these packs which have different coin amounts, will contain bonus exclusive items (only possible to get from these packs with the exception of the Heart sticker). When you purchase a more expensive Coin Pack you do not receive the coins or bonus items from the less expensive pack(s), they are separate.
• Coin Packs with bonus - limited time offerIt is undetermined for how long these coins packs with bonus items will be available.
• Shop rotationThe shop’s contents rotate every 2 days at ...

Yes, that'd make a lot of sense. Noted.

Removing Rotterdam would be a bit mean to UK right now :)

We are currently working on trying to get a good Paris location. It's easy to just get a consumer-grade dedicated server or a cloud location, but for important locations like that we want to stick to something proper with a support crew on-site that understands our gaming concerns (minimal routes, latency stability, etc). Also we want companies for those locations with a level of support where we can take to them any traceroute of a user having problems and they can address it, contacting this users' ISP or whatever it takes. This is why we have some important holes in our coverage right now, but don't worry, we take coverage very seriously and we are not willingly ignoring certain areas.
