With the addition of new respawn mechanics and game modes, do you have any intentions on adding more squad flexibility (I.e. duos, quads, etc.)?
yep we'll be trying out duos soon :)

I love that you guys are bringing faction war type modes back. To me, that's what made Hyper Scape stand out. But I'm on xbox, and I'm not really too excited to be playing against a bunch M&K players. It gives players a huge advantage for fast paced games. I'll wait and see how the skill gap is lowered before I make it too big of an issue for me.
Also, I'm a big fan of the exterior of the map, gives me Old City Montreal vibes but the interiors need to be more diverse, it's hard to make call outs. To the average person trying the game out, I believe it makes the map boring. Half the fun in a new BR is to explore the map. Thanks for your hard work though, I love that you guys are listening to the community and not going the BFV route. Cheers
I answered it elsewhere in the comments here but so it's clear: we're not going to force console players to go up against PC players.
I was hooked on this game since the second day of release and I'm really excited for these changes, especially cross-play. But one thing I hope you guys do special events for holidays and such as Halloween and Christmas. That would be really cool to see and play during. Keep up the good work! You built such an amazing game and I dont want it to die so soon.
Hmmm that's true Halloween is right around the corner isn't it?
I don't think they are adding a ranked mode. They keep saying Player Rankings and it makes it sound much more like a leaderboard than a separate playlist - not to mention they know they can't add any other modes (that includes ranked) without splitting the player base up too much.
We plan to have a playlist for ranked players to get sweaty, but no it's not a full on ranked mode where the matchmaking matches you against players of your similar rank. Still general matchmaking with ranking based on your overall performance. More detail to come in our patch notes next week.
I'd consider coming back for TDM, I really wish there was a DECIMAL point for sensitivity. My sensitivity changes when I switch to hyperscape which is difficult for minor adjustments
Are you talking about Mouse sensitivity or something else? We indeed changed it to allow decimal point sensitivity on mouse earlier this season. Patched on September 1 in case you missed it! https://www.ubisoft.com/en-ca/game/hyper-scape/news-updates/6vssr2AEvdxIRT4CrdD8OQ/hyper-scape-patch-notes-11
This is good. On console, I can't get one darn kill because everybody seems to be beasts that can jump, spin and still shoot me in the head without missing.
I practice a lot but once I'm in game, it just get too hard. Every other game I'll get over 5 kills in most matches. This one? One if I'm lucky.
I think this is a pretty fair summary of many of our players' experience in the game, and we look forward to hearing what you think as we make changes in the weeks ahead!
So there WILL be crossplay when season 2 starts? Is there a date for this as well? Want to start telling my console frands.
Season 2 starts next week on October 6. Crossplay is not ready to go that soon. We're moving as quick as we can on that though.

Thanks so much for your post! Hope to see you sticking around and seeing what we can do together to make Hyper Scape shine.
This game is not for noob lol, i decided to give up after 2 week trying to hide from other player.
in your opinion, what could have eased your 2 weeks playing and made you more likely to stay?
Do you plan on nerfing the riot one at some point?
Oh, we have lots of plans...
(jokes asides, we know the Riot is currently not loved a ton by the community right now, stay tuned)
Read moreAs someone who's been a fan of the game since it launched for me on PS4, this message addresses exactly where I'm at. I love the core gameplay, but the unforgiving nature of the skill ceiling and Crown Rush as a mode makes it hard to enjoy the experience sometimes. Pair that with the player base population, and now at the end of S1, it has resulted in a bit more deflated experience admittedly.
That said, this is the right type of message and I think the right type of approach. Offering other deathmatch style modes, I think will be a huge win for Hyper Scape. Not only does it offer more casual players a chance to participate in the fun gameplay more, but it also will allow Hyper Scape to stand out among other F2P games which are BR only and needlessly limit themselves to that one game mode. I truly believe the best games are not just "one trick ponies", and can extend beyond the definition of a single mode.
I genuinely feel sympathy for all of the team members at Ubi...
such a great note, thanks for taking the time to write it! <3
I wouldn’t mind a respawn mode that isn’t ranked or stat tracking either, respawn is important because it gives ppl reps on their shot too. I’m hoping for more polish, I wish the game was more dramatic in like how ppl die and just the theatrics of it, the fundamental game is great imo and aesthetics play a huge role for casuals even if the game does seem difficult, plus it’s even better for content creators to push content and promote the game
Anything can change for the future of course, but the current plans for modes with respawn is for them to exist outside of the player ranking system.
Will there be a FOV slider for console anytime soon?
Work is being done on this currently but I don't have any ETA to share at this time.
im gonna say this just in case: id feel a lot better about playing a game that slowly pushes out quality content than a game that does it faster but with overworked and depressed developers
Part of the direction to the team with this new cell structure is not to rush to ship new features and ideas, but rather to give each the time they need to be fully baked. So we're with you on this desire :)
I've been asking for months now, but please could you take a look at the usual crashes some people and I are getting?
Gonna need more specifics on the crashes you're talking about, including platform please!
Could we get a player leveling system, that's not the battle pass level.
A core level that would bring rewards to players, specially F2P players. Maybe every so many levels we could get a loot box or some currency to exchange in the shop.
Those are the kind of things that helps players and makes us stay for longer... Honestly after I reached level 100 I didn't see much reason to keep on playing. Instead I moved to other games and worked on their passes or simply leveled up for rewards.
Progression systems are part of the focus of that "Player Goals" pillar indeed. The player ranking in Season 2 is a start of that.
Just a thing

Bring fov slider to console or at least make the default fov more at start of season 2
We're currently doing FOV work right now. I don't have any timelines to share, as it's a bit complex to manage FOV and performance on consoles, but we're on it.
Does the Cross Play feature you’re planning force Console players in the same lobbies with PC players?
Nope, per platform requirements console players can never be forced to play with PC ones.
