GAME MECHANICS General Game Size

• Space needed to install the game should now be down to roughly 14 Gigabytes from the previous size of 53.7 Gigabytes. (74% decrease in total space needed).

We have received positive feedback from our testers about this change and are eager to see how it effects our community. We plan to continue working on optimization in the following weeks and will continue to monitor related feedback.

Matchmaking

NEW: Crunch Crunch is a melee diver with a unique set of abilities meant to combo together in various ways. We wanted Crunch to be very dynamic and fluid to play, so a lot of attention went into nailing down the feel of weaving abilities and basic attacks together in succession. Players that can effectively combo both his abilities and basic attacks together, and utilize on-hit ability effect items, will get the most out Crunch.

Solo vs PVE and Co-op vs PVE game modes will now be available for players. In Solo vs PVE, players will be able to queue up with themselves or a part of premade players, filling up any empty spots with AI. Coop will use Fault's matchmaking system to fill in any missing party slots with other players also looking to queue up and play with others against AI.‍

This is aimed towards helping new players learn the basics of Fault without having the additional stress of having to play against other players looking to play in a more competitive environment.
