V10.10 PATCH NOTES

BATTLE ROYALE

WHAT’S NEW?

Retail Row

A Rift Zone has turned Mega Mall back into Retail Row, and prices have dropped significantly. These discounts come at the cost of increased danger — bargain-crazed Fiends are spawning in the Rift Zone, and they want the shopping center all to themselves.

World Run LTM

Dip, dodge, and duck through treacherous traps, lava pits, and more to become the world’s fastest lane runner. 16 players race to complete the course. The first team to collect 30 coins wins!

LIMITED TIME MODES

World Run LTM

Team Type: Squads | Respawning: On

16 Players.

4 Teams.

The team to collect 30 coins fastest wins.

In the event that two teams collect the same amount of coins, the team that was faster will win.

WEAPONS + ITEMS

Unvaulted only in the Sword Fight Squads and Duos LTMs:

Infinity Blade

Reduced the environmental damage from 10000 to 600.

Increased the number of resource stacks contained in Chests in Tilted Town from 1 to 3.

B.R.U.T.E. updates:

Added a targeting laser that appears as players load and fire missiles.

In addition to the B.R.U.T.E.’s gunner, this laser is visible to opponents and teammates.

This is to help give clarity to all players on where a gunner is aiming their rockets before they’re fired.

The time before the B.R.U.T.E. explodes after the self-destruct countdown has initiated has been increased from 4 seconds to 5.

Improved visual and audio feedback during the self-destruct sequence.

These timing, audio, and visual adjustments aim to address an issue with overall readability of the self-destruct sequence.

B.R.U.T.E.s can now be entered directly from glider mode.

Updated B.R.U.T.E. spawn logic for large team respawn game modes.

B.R.U.T.Es will now spawn intermittently throughout the match instead of waiting for Storm phases to end.

B.R.U.T.E.s abandoned in the Storm will self-destruct after 30 seconds.

B.R.U.T.E.s will reappear on the minimap after 15 seconds if no player is in either seat.

On Saturday, August 10, we lowered the spawn rates of the B.R.U.T.E. per Storm circle in Arena and Tournament playlists. We will continue to monitor the impact of this change in advance of next weekend’s Champion Series event.

Beginning of Match

21.5% chance that between 1-3 B.R.U.T.Es will spawn

Previously was 100% chance that between 2-4 B.R.U.T.Es would spawn

Storm 1

44% chance that between 1-4 B.R.U.T.Es will spawn

Previously was 100% chance that between 2-4 B.R.U.T.Es would spawn

40% chance that between 1-2 B.R.U.T.Es will spawn

Previously was 100% chance that between 1-3 B.R.U.T.Es would spawn

Storm 5

3% chance that 1 B.R.U.T.E will spawn

Previously was 10% chance that 1 B.R.U.T.E would spawn

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue in which opponents’ B.R.U.T.E.s would sometimes not be visible.

B.R.U.T.E.s can no longer be used to traverse the map faster than intended.

The turn rate of B.R.U.T.E.’s turret is no longer framerate-dependent.

GAMEPLAY

Retail Row

A Rift Zone has replaced the Mega Mall POI with Retail Row.

Retail Row now spawns hordes of Fiends who charge at players.

Fiends may drop a weapon, consumable, or ammo upon being eliminated.

Fiends cannot go outside the Retail Row Rift Zone.

Note: Fiends will not appear in certain modes.

Chests and ammo containers will now open when destroyed.

Known issue: Destroying a Chest or ammo container by destroying the object it is placed on will not open it.

We plan to have this issue resolved in the v10.20 update.

Bug Fixes

The Week 1 and Week 2 Hidden Battle Stars can now be collected.

Fixed an issue in which the Bush would reset its displayed equip timer if the player tried to activate it multiple times. (Players would still be able to equip the Bush at the intended time, but the displayed timer would be incorrect.)

Fixed an issue in which Supply Drop smoke would not appear if the box was not in sight.

Trees no longer turn into different kinds of trees upon being damaged.

This includes snow-covered trees no longer turning into non-snow-covered trees.

Fixed an issue in which Chests would sometimes already be broken or opened at the start of a match.

Walking over in-motion Bottle/Fancy Flip Toys no longer causes a camera issue.

EVENTS

Pushed a fix on August 5 to address an Arena matchmaking issue causing players to be matched within a wider Hype range than intended.

Because players are now matched within a narrower Hype range, some players may experience longer queue times. This is to ensure higher-quality matches.

Fixed an issue involving Chests being unopenable in Tilted Town.

PERFORMANCE
