We had 3 releases last week: our initial launch, a 2nd release on Thursday enhancing our algorithms to better learn from player behavior and a 3rd release on Friday with new settings / fixes based on community feedback.
Here’s a breakdown of the new additions and fixes:
- Added a Mouse Input Setting with the options “Raw“ and “Smooth”.
- Aim FTW defaults to “Raw” and we generally recommend playing video games with raw input instead of using smoothing. We added smoothing however, for those users who prefer being able to control their mouse sensitivity in-game.
- Note that in order to use the “Look X and Y” sensitivities, you will need to select the “Smooth” option. Selecting the “Raw” input method negates the effect of the X and Y sliders.
- Aim FTW defaults to “Raw” and we generally recommend playing video games with raw input instead of using smoothing. We added smoothing however, for those users who prefer being able to control their mouse sensitivity in-game.
- Fixed an issue where the mini game loading screen was followed by a black screen for up to 30 seconds. Now, the loading screen will transfer immediately to the game environment.
- Added an Ambient Sound volume slider to the Settings Menu.
- This controls the ambient background noise present while playing mini games so that you can choose to disable it altogether.
- We recommend keeping it on as most games have ambient noise and it is very useful to train your ear to detect sounds like gunshots and footsteps so that you can respond to threats before they find you.
- This controls the ambient background noise present while playing mini games so that you can choose to disable it altogether.
- Fixed a bug where the Master Volume slider in the main menu was not working in some cases.
- Updated the Master Volume slider to control all sounds including weapon sounds and footsteps.
- Fixed a bug where background music wouldn't play upon returning to the Main Menu from the mini games.
As far as new features and fixes on the horizon, we have the following in our sights:
- Redoing the Assault Rifle Scope. There is an issue causing it to be darkened making aiming more difficult.
- Adding more customizable weapon settings (2 are currently available: Assault Rifle Accuracy/Spread and Assault Rifle Rate of Fire).
- Updating hit boxes to accurately reflect model visuals.
- Adding the ability to toggle targets within games or removing them altogether from certain mini games.
- A feature for customizing the game time from its current default of 2 minutes.
- Translations (Chinese/Russian).
- Adding Controller Support.
- Adding Leaderboards and Mini Game-specific rankings.
- Refining the Scoring System and making it easier to understand.
- Adding a Sensitivity Calculator to adapt sensitivities from popular games.
- Adding new Mini Games.
Let us know what you would like to see most (and if something else should be on this list)!
Good luck, have fun,
