We have pushed a hotfix to address the following:

  • Mild server crashes.
  • Item stacks not working as intended on Twinblast and Grux.
  • Ward charge cooldowns not working as intended.
  • Players with high ping having trouble queuing.
  • Scoreboard hero level ping to reflect the last level visible.
We have also added a ping indicator to the draft lobby due to player feedback.

Enjoy the game everyone and keep that feedback coming via our Discord server: https://discord.com/invite/strangematterstudios ⚔️

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).
With this patch we have reduced the file size of Fault dramatically, this is the result of some work we have done to optimize and improve the memory usage of our game. 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
  • Region selector has been removed from PVP matches and replaced with Ping dependent matchmaking.

To aid new players in finding matches in a reasonable time, and to give all players in a lobby the best matchmaking experience possible, we are testing out a new matchmaking system. The game will now take a u... Read more

WHAT IS THE HERO MASTERY RACE?
The Hero Mastery Race is a competition to see who can reach gold mastery on our latest hero the fastest! We want the race to be accessible to as many people as possible, therefore we have opted to only go as far as gold for now. We don't want players to play for extremely unreasonable amounts of time to win the race, but we will monitor how long it takes our players to accomplish this goal and adjust if necessary for next time. This is something we would like to continue doing for our future hero releases, so please let us know your feedback in our Discord.


HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?
Play the game!

Anyone that owns Crunch only needs to play the game as you would normally to earn Mastery XP. Your match performance and match time affect the amount of Mastery XP you earn, so rushing bot games or throwing matches won't help you here! Play as many games of Crunch as you can and you'll be sure to rank up as quickly a... Read more

Can't wait for this. Too scared to get back into the game in its current state, so this will allow me to test all the new items without throwing and getting flamed

Can't wait to have you back!

We created a quick demonstration of how you can access our AI mode with Patch 0.14. You can play Solo vs AI or Co-op vs AI! 🤖

Note: You can play Solo PVE with friends if you queue up in a party!

How will you utilize this new feature?

Because MONEY!

We will go free to play when the game is ready for it. I see you saying there is 100 different answers but the answer is always the same: It's missing features we want to be ready before that happens, including the stability of the game.

If we went F2P now, there would be a surge of players in the short term, sure, but that's not what we want.

We still need a bot mode and interactive tutorial for new player onboarding instead of just dropping them straight into PVP. This is essential and something we are actively working hard on. This could be the best game ever made, 0 bugs, perfect balance, 1000 heroes covering every single play style imaginable, but if you force new players into a real game and they get dunked on from the get go, they will not want to keep playing.

Mastery system and other player retention incentives are also needed to keep players engaged.

Another thing is making sure we have finalized our content release pipeline to make sure th...
