Summary
Short week for a patch. First let us say Happy Thanksgiving to all our fans who celebrate this holiday! Patch on a Tuesday this week because we’ll all be sleepy from Tryptophan this Thursday. In celebration we added a new Veteran uniform, “Legs of Thanks”.
We’ve added our boost system this week. Allowing players to purchase Combat Credit (CC) boosts which will improve the CCs you gain after a match.
For game balance, we took aim at the high health and low health Pros and squeezed the difference in a bit. Increasing the low health Pros and decreasing the high health Pros.
