1.48.0 patch notes

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

GAME MODE: WINGMAN

• Added Wingman to the list of casual game modes.

That’s right, Wingman is here! Hop into a 2v2 match with your friend, or queue solo, and experience your favorite maps in a completely new way!

WINGMAN DETAILS

TEAMS:

• The Breach, Coalition.
• 2 players on both sides.

ROUNDS:

• 1 minute 30 seconds per round.
• Side swap after 8 rounds.
• Round win conditions are the same as in defuse game modes.
• 9 rounds to win the match.

ECONOMY:

• Casual defuse economy.

MAPS:

• Plaza and Castello.
  • More maps will become available later in the update.
• Each map has 2 variations: limited to A or B sites respectively.

The Wingman mode is similar to other, already familiar to you defuse game modes. Some rules have been changed to accommodate the smaller map and team sizes. We will monitor player feedback regarding this game mode, so do not be shy and share it with us!

GAMEPLAY

CHARACTER COLLIDER

• Centered character collider to the character model.

In update 1.26.0, the character collider was offset to address certain peeking issues caused by character animations. This, however, caused some negative player experiences regarding character movement.

With the introduction of new agents in update 1.43.0 the character animations were changed, and the peeking issues were addressed. Version 1.48.0 will center the character collider on the character model.

This change will affect character movement, making it more predictable and stable. Here is a comparison video of the same scenario on the 1.47.0 and 1.48.0 game versions:

KNIFE DROPPING

• Removed knife dropping on player death.
  • Knife can still be dropped manually.

Initially, a knife being dropped on death was added to make all weapons behave the same way when a character dies. This, however, caused several technical and gameplay problems, and negative player experience. Based on these factors, we have decided to make this change.

RANKED

RATING ADJUSTMENT

• Added rating adjustment system.
• Added rating adjustment notification screen.
• Made ranked matches cancel if a player is banned.
  • No team loses or wins.

Player experience and safety remain our top priorities. Starting 1.48.0, players’ ranked ratings will be adjusted accordingly if a player from their ranked match is found to have been hacking or ghosting.

If a player is banned for hacking or ghosting, the rating adjustment system analyzes all their played matches, determines how it affected each player’s ranked rating, and compensates that much rating for the match’s outcome. The system can compensate less but can not compensate more rating than gained or lost from a match.

The rating adjustment feature will be turned on later in the 1.48 LIVE release.
