Patch v2.3 – Season 2 – TU 2

Patch 2.3 introduces several major new features to Hyper Scape as well as a series of improvement to combat comfort. As we explained recently, we are now in the Hyper Scape Lab phase of the Season 2, and we are going to let our players experience certain features while they are still in beta, to gather feedback from our community.

NEW FEATURES

BETA TEAM DEATHMATCH

Patch 2.3 finally introduces the long-awaited Team Deathmatch (aka “TDM”) game mode!

Team Deathmatch is a new fast-paced 6v6 game mode taking place in specific areas of Neo Arc...

NEW FEATURES

FOV SLIDER ON PS4 AND XBOX ONE

Reminder, that since our update earlier this week, we are now supporting the FOV slider on all generations of PS4 & Xbox One.

Keep in mind that changing the default value might impact the overall visual quality of the game, as it affects the dynamic resolution scaling.

• Default value: 80
• Minimum value: 70
• Maximum value: 105

Developer Notes: You may have noticed the default FOV value has changed from 65 to 80. In fact, the value remains the same, but we converted our FOV measurements from Vertical (65) to Horizontal (80) to match player preference.

Patch 2.2 adjusts some of the changes from patch 2.1 and fixes a major issue with the Komodo.

NEW FEATURES

CONTROLLER AIMING IMPROVEMENTS

A new exponential aiming curve has been added for controllers and the behavior of the other curves has been improved. The three aiming curves (classic, linear and exponential) now use the same speed / top speed settings. We also fixed some issues where the diagonal speed was sometimes different between vertical & horizontal speed, which should increase the comfort when aiming.

This comes with new aiming settings to customize your controller:

• Horizontal extra speed
• Vertical extra speed
• Horizontal extra speed (ADS)
• Vertical extra speed (ADS)
• Extra speed delay
• Extra spe...

NEW FEATURES

NEW WEAPON - ATRAX

The Atrax is a full-auto rifle which shoots sticky explosive projectiles.

The chemical projectiles from the Atrax will detonate instantly when hitting a Contender, but when hitting an environment surface, they will instead stick to it and detonate shortly after.

Any enemy target caught within the Area of Effect of the explosion will suffer damage and a short slowdown effect.

The Atrax is an efficient and versatile weapon, but it has a very limited magazine clip size, so watch your ammo count closely!

Hyper Scape will briefly be down for maintenance today to deploy a small title update addressing a number of bugs reported by the community. While this patch does not impact overall gameplay balance, we are actively listening and discussing game feedback and suggestions.

Sound Optimization

Simplification of the number of active sounds during a match, reducing occurrences of dropped sound. The change should not generate any noticeable changes in the sound experience for players.

Please note: This does not include a fix for the previously reported Magnet issue. Stay tuned for further updates on this issue and the Magnet hack.

Xbox Launch Crashing

We have addressed the largest Xbox One-related issue, which was causing crashes at game launch.

Additional Debug Logs

To better serve the community, we are adding detailed online debug logs to help us investigate online service ...

Greetings Contenders!

The full launch of Hyper Scape’s first season across all platforms has brought new important feedback from our existing community, and from an entirely new audience of console players. Your comments are extremely important to us, and we’re starting to address them in the patch 1.1, the first major update since the launch of Season One.

Thanks to the arrival of console we have received a lot of comments on the game experience with a Controller, much more than we heard during our Open Beta. Players particularly reported issues related to the aiming sensitivity of the game, and the comfort of Controller sticks in general. As such, we are adding new Controller settings to disable Aim Acceleration and choose a Linear Response Curve. Making sure you have a good experience on console is key for us so we will continue monitoring your feedback on this topic closely.

We also heard from our community that winning with the Crown during the Showdown ...

Hello once again, PC Open Beta Contenders!

We are excited to announce Patch 0.5, deploying on PC this Friday, July 31 at approx. 2:00pm PT / 5:00pm ET, following the Creators Cup. This represents a broad rebalancing pass on the abilities meta of the game. These changes come after much consideration of your feedback since the beginning of our Open Beta and following the changes introduced in our last patches. To summarize the changes you’ll see below, this is an update to many items of frustration you have voiced.

First and foremost, this patch is about Time-To-Kill. Many of you told us TTK felt too slow and that it was too hard to eliminate opponents. We believe the core of the issue was indeed that weapons were not dealing enough damage, but also that the shooting windows of opportunity were rendered too short by the very strong presence of mobility or defensive Hacks. Hacks started to have too strong an influence on the TTK overall. So, we have foc...

Hello to our PC Open Beta Contenders! We’re happy to bring you Patch 0.4, deployed during our first week of Open Beta to address several points of feedback you’ve been asking us about. This patch will bring fixes to multiple bugs & balancing issues encountered since the Technical Test.

As a quick note, we wanted to point out that this is why Open Beta is very important to us, as it gives us a chance to gather and react to your feedback before Hyper Scape’s full release this summer. To that point, this patch would not have been possible without all your questions, comments, and suggestions. Your feedback is crucial, so please keep it coming.

Hello Contenders! The launch of Hyper Scape’s Open Beta introduces our version 0.3.

This patch comes with a lot of new content and several improvements on issues raised during Technical Test. The test for us was incredibly useful in being able to ensure our server and game client stability is up to the task for the much larger populations we expect when fully live. Your gameplay data gave the development team the crucial information necessary to better understand where our overall Game Balance stands, and what changes will be needed. You’ll see some of these changes already in the notes below, with more planned for launch.

Thanks again for all the feedback you gave us during Tech Test, your help in making Hyper Scape better is critical. We count on you for Open Beta, tell us what you think of the game!
