Jetball News

Features:

• Completely re-worked how the keybinds are handled.
  
• Added default binds for WASD and ESDF players.
  
• Menus cleaned up and improved to support lower resolutions.
  
• Fixed a missing sound with the disc launcher (fire effect volume was so low it was inaudible).
  
• Beacon and Springboard sound effect volumes adjusted to reflect player speed.
  
• Updated to Unreal Engine 4.18.2.

Gameplay Changes:

• Bots should no longer get stuck in the spawn huts.

Bug Fixes:

• See keybind feature (controllers still need more work but are supported).
  
• Score hud fixed for lower resolutions
  
• Start up intro loud volume fixed.
  
• Adjusted jetpack for Alpha and Vangaurd (and some animation improvements)
  
• Fixed a crash when running a lot of bots on a server.

Known Issues:

• Some character animations are not working at the right time (like walking instead of skiing or vice versa).
  
• Some character jetpack locations are not aligned yet.
  
• Slapping the ball quickly between players causes a multiverse infinite possibilites scenerio with some interesting results.
  
• The brake key has been known to stick for at least one player (hitting brake again fixes it).
  
• After changing teams, players can see both team messaging waypoints indicators (when you should only see your own team message waypoints).
  
• The mouse goes inverted sometimes when playing with sensitivity - workaround is to check the invert mouse box (until you restart then it will correct itself requiring you to unchkeck the box).

Features:

• Added "Find Players in Discord" button to the Join Game screen.

Gameplay Changes:

• None

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed Chat focus issues.
  
• Fixed Ping to show proper round trip value while connected to a server (should get similar results as when doing a cmd ping).
  
• Fixed Jetpack stutter issue (much improved anyway).
  
• Fixed FOV not working in 3rd person.
  
• Fixed 3rd person mode not persisting after death/respawn/map change.
  
• Fixed the "Intercppted" spelling error.

Known Issues:

• First time running the game there is often a problem where available keybinds and screen resolutions do not appear correctly - restart the game to fix.
  
• The keybind screen is little wonky at times (order moves around by itself) but seems to get the job done.

With a great big thanks to the guys at Branzone.com we now have 3 new high speed servers in action. One in Frankfurt Germany and 2 in Texas USA. Each server has 8 slots, so enjoy up to 4v4 or 3v3 with a spectator or two. Branzone offers some of the lowest ping and jitter free servers. We are very excited to have them as a partner in Early Access.
