Spectre Divide Update | November 5 | Patch Notes
GENERAL
- Based on community feedback, we’ve enabled a basic version of Spectator Mode for Custom Matches to support competitive play.
- Spectator Mode is currently in early Beta. You will encounter bugs and known issues.
- We don’t intend to make many updates to Spectator Mode right now – most change/feature requests will be queued up for the future.
- Known issues:
- As a Spectator, your Sponsor Help (F1) menu is blank
- If you start a Custom Match with a Spectator and no Attackers or Defenders, the match will be canceled
- As a Spectator, the Map (M) will only show Sponsor logos for the team you’re actively spectating
- As a Spectator, sometimes a player in the top HUD will show as disconnected when they’re not (reconnecting to the match typically fixes this)
- As a Spectator, at the start of the round, the Minimap will briefly show the player arrows as dots
- The color indicators above the player portraits at the top of the Spectator HUD are incorrect
- Some equipment cooldowns don’t update properly when observing individual players
- The colors used to highlight teams through walls use different color values from the minimap
- Voice-over lines are sometimes incorrectly attributed to the Spectator
- There are some issues with Spectator + Widescreen. For example, if you’re observing a player scoped using a sniper rifle and then you change players, you may be stuck with black borders
- This corrects itself after a short amount of time.
- As a Spectator, your Sponsor Help (F1) menu is blank
- Known issues:
