[2020] Patch Notes v1.0.1

Now that we're finally in Early Access, we have a whole new set of challenges.

The most difficult of all so far have been struggling over naming the version of our Patch Notes ;)

Did we want to do "v1.1" or "v1.0.1" or should we just call them "hotfixes"?
Do we want to save version 1.0 for launch?
Maybe we should just give them all cool-sounding names?

So we decided that for now, we will use the format:

v ..

Just a little insight into how we will do things

Patch Notes v1.0.1 We've been listening to a ton of feedback from the community, and this week, we wanted to address some of the low-hanging-fruit problems and issues.

• Voice upgrades to hopefully fix some microphone issues
  
  Note: Players with MacOS may still experience microphone issues. This issue is still one of our highest priority.
  
  
• Bug fixes for Tooltips and Game End Screen
  
• Upgrading our "Report Player" functionality, including ban visibility
  
  When reporting players, there are now categories for grievances (ie. Hate Speech, Offensive Name, Teaming, etc). In addition, banned players will receive a pop-up when they log into the game explaining their banned condition.
  
  
• Starting Item Unlocks for progressing new players
  
  Players will now be introduced to each new starting item over the course of a few games played.
  
  
  
  With each new starting item unlock, there will be a descriptive pop-up detailing how the item is used.
  

We are still working on a ton of other new features and fixes to address the needs of our community. Lots more to come very soon!
