Howdy, Bandit!

[h2]NEW XMAS EVENT IS LIVE![/h2]

Ho Ho Ho! 🎅

The holidays came early this year, bearing the gift of a totally free XMAS Event* for you including:

• Three exclusive levels in XMAS Mode (Heist Mode)
  
• Eight new character skins to play with and unlock in the store
  
• Certain parts of Rubber Bandits decorated for the festive season
  

But that's not all we have in the bank for you 👀

You might also find some secret content that we heard you asked Santa about...
...But you will have to play the update to find out for yourself.



*XMAS event ends early January

HOTFIX!
We have addressed issues around handling hosts disconnecting during gameplay.

• Added server migration/rehosting when the server leaves a game in progress
  
• Added win and rewards for players if they are the last player in a public game
  
• Updated reward screen UI
  

Hi Bandits!

So, what's the plan boys? Well, listen... 😏



It's been one week since launch, and some of you have been asking for our short and long term plans for the game. After a first Hotfix and more to come, check out our plans for Mid December, Mid January, Late January and 2022.

And don't forget to leave a comment if you have any questions! We'll do our best to answer everyone!

Small hotfix for addressing a critical issue

• Fixed issue with blinking/unresponsive characters for Steam users (players on other platforms can still get in this state)
  
• Added indicator for poor connection to server
  

Hi Bandits!

The launch has been BANANAS, and we’ve been overwhelmed by your amazing support. Thank you!

Given that Rubber Bandits is still brand new, we’ve encountered some teething issues that we’re issuing a fix for within the next couple of days. This fix will aim to correct the reported blinking or unresponsive character bugs.

The devs are working hard on improving input latency - we’ve done some backend fixes over this last weekend to improve these, and we’re prioritising more improvements as the week goes on.
There are a few more extra quality-of-life improvements coming, and we’ll be sure to give you more details when we have them!

I have found a bug/issue! What do I do?

Don't panic! In order for the Rubber Bandits devs to get on the case with a fix, here's a few things you need to do:

• Report the bug to the #bug-report channel on Discord: https://discord.gg/Bm749g4uFv
• If you're playing on console: let us know what platform you're on, and give a description of the issue
  
• If you're playing on PC: give us a description of the issue, and a Player.log (you can find this in: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\LocalLow\Flashbulb\Rubber Bandits)
  
• Top tip from the devs: it's important to explain what happened BEFORE the issue, so we can dig into reports properly and quickly
  

Thanks again for your patience while we’ve been taking your feedback onboard and putting these fixes into practice, and we’ll update you again very soon!
