Update 4: Private lobbies, cyberpunk customizations and more
Hello everyone,
[h2]Private lobbies[/h2]
This update finally brings you the long awaited private lobby functionality so from now on you will be able to play with or against your friends uninterruptedly.
How to play in a private lobby?
1. The party leader invites all other party members
2. Party leader checks "Private Party Match" before pressing Quick Play
3. Party leader selects Quick Play
This way only the members of the party will join in the match.
Note #1:
We are still working on a rejoin functionality so if someone drops out from the game, you have to start over steps 1-3. We are working hard to make this process more comfortable in the near future.
Note #2:
While we know playing against friends only is a good thing, please consider playing in public lobbies to make the game fun for everyone. Thank you.
[h2]Cyberpunk customizations[/h2]
We have added some nice looking cyberpunk customizations to the game. You can find them near the beginning of the customization lists.
If you make a cool screenshot including them, post it on the internet and tag us!
The background in the image? Oh yeah, that is on of the two new maps we are working on right now.
