Waiting 8-10sec between matches with a locked animation has to be the worst design decision of any game ever developed.

External link →Hello, designer here. This was not a design decision at all, but a server issue where the game is waiting for a message that never gets sent, so the client sits until a timeout (8 secs) and then moves on.
It is currently resolved in next release. Sorry for the annoyance! We're all feeling it too as we play.
Thanks Kale! Two questions: 1. Can we expect other stability/performance improvements in this release? The client has felt kind of janky (like the giant numbers thing...). 2. When can we expect this? Sooner than the KLD release?
Yes, we have been working on refactoring and extending some older code in the last couple months. This should improve performance, but it sometimes causes new issues.
This bug in particular is fixed in KLD, we won't be doing a hotfix. If you are having the giant numbers issue, you can DM me, we are looking for people that get it regularly - it has been hard to track down.
Thanks for the information! I appreciate you keeping us in the loop--the silence from the whole team right around the last patch was discouraging.
No problem! A lot of us that frequent reddit have been getting some much needed vacation in October. Sorry to leave everyone out of the loop. I'm back and rested now, so I'll try to provide context when I can. :)
Hey just figured I would shoot my shot here and ask-
In addition to the unintentional delay, if there was a way to exit that Victory/Defeat screen via key shortcut (Spacebar, Enter, Esc), that would be AMAZING.
Needing to click feels really unnatural and I'm sure as a designer you know more than I do about keyboard shortcut unification / expected beviour / UX stuff. But yeah, not a big fan of how it works at the moment.
If this isn't already planned, I'm sure it won't make it into the next patch- just hope the idea is on someone's radar if possible.
I definitely want more keyboard shortcuts in the menus. I'll add a note to my QOL list. Thanks for the feedback!
