Flight of the Ancients Tournament!


As Guns of Icarus Online/Alliance approaches its seventh anniversary, we here at Muse Games have looked back at how far this game has come since its inception. We've seen many new additions, from ships, to guns, to new maps, and even the addition of PvE.

This year, we honor the past by reliving it. On Saturday, November 2, Muse Games proudly presents the Flight of the Ancients tournament, a trip back through time and the different eras of Guns of Icarus: Alliance and Guns of Icarus Online.

Click here to view the rules and sign up thread on the Guns of Icarus Forums.

Don't miss the tournament stream on November 2nd!

Heavy Detonator Balance Pass

The PvP version of the Heavy Detonator was doing more damage than we would like to balloons, especially on direct hits. Turns out it was doing double damage! We've adjusted the damage and projectile count of the gun to address this issue.

New Stats for the PvP Detonator:
  • Direct Damage: 7x6 Flechette (from 13) (x2 damage on direct balloon hits)
  • Burst Damage: 28x6 Explosive (from 31)
  • Ammo: 1 in a cluster of 6 (was 7)

The Description has also been updated:
"Launches a volley of 6 slow-moving projectiles that will instantly detonate with double damage when Secondary Fire is pressed. Direct hits to balloon will do double Flechette damage without detonation. Practice detonating just after the projectiles start lighting up the target."

These changes are live right now so hop in game, give it a try, and let us know what you think!
