Tom Clancy's XDefiant Dev Tracker

Due to a bug causing players to be invisible, we have given everyone the "Hi-Velocity" skin from the Rewards Track, which should correct the issue.

🧵📢Thread on XDefiant Closed Beta Updates Today

🧵1/4

We will be enabling progression at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET. With this change we will be swapping to Unranked being the only available playlist.

Thank you for those that played Alpha* Ranked, we have seen great feedback on the playlist and are analyzing the data for it. 👏

🧵2/4

The new Hot Shot mode just dropped in the XDefiant Closed Beta. Learn everything you need to know about it and more in our XDefiant Starter Guide!

@SaiyanPride45 Already working on it 👍 We did a pretty big write-up about the subject and what we're planning to do about it here:

Good question!

Our newest game mode, "Hot Shot", has you collecting tokens from fallen opponents. Collect the most, and you become the "hot shot," making you faster and deadlier than ever.

Be careful though, as you'll have a target on your back revealing you on the map. 🎯

We are now turning Unranked playlist back on! That’s not all - we are also adding a new mode, Hot Shot! Both unranked and ranked will be playable. Unranked is playable solo or group, and ranked will be solo queue.

Thanks for the continued feedback on our Alpha Ranked playlist!

Thank you for everyone’s patience as we collect data on our Ranked Playlist. We will bring back unranked mode and the Practice Zone soon – stay tuned.

Due to our progression issues, we are also going to unlock DedSec faction for everyone in the rest of the Closed Beta! Try them out and keep an eye out for incoming spiderbots!

3/3

Ranked playlist features 4v4 matches, changes such as side-swapping, and for the Closed Beta will be solo queue only. Please let us know your thoughts!

We are still working on progression, for now everything will remain unlocked and we will update when we can.

2/3

We are happy to announce a test of our Alpha* Ranked Playlist. The playlist is still work-in-progress, and we are looking for feedback on the topic!

To help focus feedback - Ranked will be the only playlist starting in an hour at 1 PM ET!
