There are more changes coming, we will keep you guys posted

We've snuck in some more quick hotfixes tonight.

XP gain fixed
Ball speed increased
Ability to mute players (tab menu)
Other minor fixes

We have a larger update planned in the next couple of days that will address a lot of the bugs players are facing. We're also working on switching from Captain's Pick to random teams (while respecting Steam parties so friends can play together on the same team)

• Vote Kicking is in. You can vote kick a player by going to the tab menu
  
• Changed the quarter time from 5 minutes to 3 minutes for Casual mode
  
• A fix for one of the issues causing players to be immediately kicked upon joining a new game
  
• A couple of security hotfixes
  

These are quick hotfixes. We are working on a larger update to address the many issues that you guys have brought to us. We hope to have another update out within 24 hours which will address some of the worst of these bugs.

We also plan to release an update tomorrow that will increase the ball speed by about 25% as it's far too slow at the moment.

We've released a hotfix for backfill, our system that enables new players to join existing match. This means that if you are in a game that is not full, you can just wait and new players will be filled into available slots.

We're going to release another update today with more bug fixes and features, including being able to vote kick players and to mute players.

Hello Everyone!

We have released an update to Gridiron that fixes some of the major issues affecting players.

* Matches will now start even if a couple of players failed to join. Replacement players will be backfilled during the match.
* Player cutout has been updated to have more accurate collision.
* Fixed some minor GFX glitches
* Added a few things to track down the loading screen issue
* Fixed a bug that caused players to not see unlock levels
* Backend changes
* Lower the time that auto hike happens
* Add some hints to players to hike the ball
* Games will end if an entire team leaves.
* A couple of exploits fixed.
* Other minor bug fixes.

We are continuing to work on issues, including switching to respecting Steam parties/team assignments so that friends can play together. This was always part of the design plan for Gridiron, but for testing purposes we rely on Captain's Pick.

Your response during launch has been amazing and we continue to value all the feedback we've been getting. If you are having issues of any kind, or have any suggestions on how to improve the game please let us know on Discord or in the Steam discussion forums.
