1.17.0 Patch notes

1.17.0 is now LIVE and available on both Android and iOS.

RankedSeason3

Ranked Season 3

We added a new Iron rank which is divided into four divisions.

Iron rank is below Bronze and will be providing much needed granularity for players currently competing at the lower end of Bronze.

We are slightly adjusting rank distribution on all ranks from Bronze to Spec Ops - Ranks from Bronze to Platinum are a bit easier to reach while reaching Master or Spec Ops is a bit harder

Starting from Season 3 players will be locked to ranked match once all players have accepted to join. Players are able to reconnect to the match at any time while it is in progress and can not join other matches while they have ranked match in progress.

Gradual leaver penalty

Players who leave ranked matches and do not rejoin will receive suspension from ranked based on the amount of penalties they have accumulated recently. Previously players could accumulate three penalties before suspension.

  • First penalty: 30 min suspension
  • Second penalty: 1 day suspension
  • Third penalty: 2 day suspension
  • Fourth or more penalty: 7 day suspension

Ranked Defuse changes

  • Round wins required for Match win increased from first to 9 round wins to first to 13 round wins. This change was added to mitigate the pistol rounds’ impact on rest of the match, giving teams more chances for come backs.
  • Freeze time increased from 10 to 15 seconds (Also applied in Custom Defuse). This change was added to give teams more time to communicate before round starts.
  • Buy Time increased from 25 to 30 seconds (Also applied in Custom Defuse). This was added do compensate the freeze time increase.
  • Player profile now has statistics for each season and best rank of current season displayed

Spring recoil animation system

  • Replaced weapon recoil animations with a procedural spring system. This was done to make weapon firing look more dynamic and smooth as the new system doesn’t suffer from animation clipping or blending issues and allows us to introduce a little bit of randomness into the animations

  • Recoil animation changes do not affect the accuracy of weapons
