These are all the Rule Changes that are in effect as of game version 2107161.

General

• Money pickups are now shared XP. On pickup, you and every player in your team gets 2 XP each.
• Added Discord integration (more below).
• Removed UE3 logo on startup.

Bots

• A Jackbot spawned after a moneyball goes down no longer replaces all the bots that were supposed to spawn in a lane, but is instead added to it.
• The base health of player purchased bots have been increased.
  • Black Jack: 3500 => 9000
  • Bouncer: 8000 => 9000
  • Scrambler: 1800 => 4500
  • Fuji: 12500 => 18000
  • Jackbot: 35000 => 36000
• Player purchased bots get a HP boost based on the current match time.
  • HP boosts won't be in effect until the match time has reached 10 minutes.
  • The boost value is determined at the time of spawning a bot and doesn't change after that.
  • The boost will grow at a rate of 1% per minute, up till a maximum of 25%.
  • Example: At 15 minutes into a match, a player purchased Fuji will have a HP pool of 18000 + 5% => 18900

Turrets

• Turret shields can now only be kept disabled by bot damage.
• Turret shields now restore after 20 seconds, rather than 40 seconds.

Annihilator (Super Crossfire only)

• The annihilator now acts different when activated, based on the current match time.
  • 0:00 - 10:00 = The annihilator acts as normal.
  • 10:00 - 15:00 = The annihilator stops the next enemy bot-wave from spawning.
  • 15:00 - 20:00 = The annihilator stops the next enemy bot-wave from spawning, and spawns a Fuji on both lanes for the winning team.
  • 20:00 - 25:00 = The annihilator stops the next enemy bot-wave from spawning, and spawns a Fuji on both lanes for the winning team.
  • 25:00 - 30:00 = The annihilator stops the next two enemy bot-waves from spawning, and spawns a Fuji on both lanes for the winning team.
  • 30:00 - 35:00 = The annihilator stops the next two enemy bot-waves from spawning, and spawns a Jackbot on the off-lane and a Fuji on both lanes for the winning team.
  • 35:00+ = The annihilator stops the next two enemy bot-waves from spawning, and spawns a Jackbot and Fuji on both lanes for the winning team.

Discord Integration

• The game now has support for Discord Rich Presence and Discord invites.
• Discord Integration will be enabled if you start the game when Discord was already running.
  • You can recognize whether or not the integration is activated if you see the Facebook-button in the main menu.
• By clicking the Facebook-button you can send an invite to Discord channels or Discord users.
• An invite can be accepted even if the game is already running.
• An invite will start the game if it isn't running yet.
  • NOTE: For this to work you have to run (and save) the Settings tool that comes bundled with the launcher once!
• An invite will be expire once a game is started.
• An invite should be re-enabled after returning to the lobby.
• Known issues
  • If you have the in-game Discord overlay enabled and click the Facebook button, an in-game invite popup will show. This popup will also show on the Desktop version of Discord. If you close the popup in the Desktop version, it will also close in-game, but in effect also disable in-game input.
    • Workaround #1: Don't close the popup in the Desktop version of Discord.
    • Workaround #2: If you are locked out, open and close the in-game overlay once using your configured shortcut.
  • Occasionally an invite is not properly re-enabled after returning to the lobby.
    • Workaround #1: Click the Facebook-button once to force an update to your Rich Presence, you can close the overlay right after.
    • Workaround #2: If that doesn't work, send a new invite.

Bugfixes

• Fixed a bug where two-way grapples could consume full ammo for the person being grappled.
• Fixed a bug where a client/server desync could cause certain skills to be unusable.
• A jungle Black Jack should now have lower health compared to a player spawned Black Jack.

Other

• It's now possible to force the game to connect to XMPP without TLS. Run the game with the following startup argument:
  • -Hack_Xmpp_NoTLS
• Added a very insecure way to auto-login if you already have an account. Run the game with the following startup arguments:
  • -autologin -Ticket="LengthOfYourUsername|YourUsername|YourPassword"
  • Example: -autologin -Ticket="4|smnc|password"
  • NOTE: You can also use the bundled Settings-tool to create a shortcut with auto-login support.
