Hello, everyone!
With the release of the 0.21.0 update, the beta test for User Battle mode will begin.
User Battle is a customizable mode that allows parameters to be changed before the start of combat: you decide the composition of the teams, the preferred mode, and the map.
The main purpose of this new mechanic is to provide players with a comfortable way of conducting various competitive events.
At the initial stage of testing, we want to focus on players who wish to organize a tournament or any similar activity. So the ability to create User Battles will be provided to a limited number of players.
All players can — and are welcome to — participate in User Battles.
After testing and finetuning the new functions, we plan to extend the range of players able to create User Battles.
During the beta test period, access to the creation of User Battles is given out to Caliber partners participating in the referral programs, and to those players who wish to organize a tournament or any similar competitive event.
If you have any ideas or suggestions, please click the button below.
A new User Battles tab will be available on the mode selection panel. If you have access, click on the Create button and you will be taken to the combat customization and preparations screen.
In this window, you can:
When the creator of the battle clicks the Start button, each player has to choose their class, then the battle preparation stage will begin.
You can participate in User Battles in several ways:
You can choose from the entire operator roster — even the ones you currently don’t have on your account. These operators will be at level 15 and use the standard upgrades, but will not have any skills.
No. The first iteration of User Battles will not allow game mode customization.
No. User Battles do not grant any rewards and are not taken into consideration when completing objectives.
In order to analyze your performance in the latest battle, you will be able to see Ribbons on the battle statistics screen. However, these Ribbons will not bring you XP or influence the statistics of your Account.
No. You can leave the battle freely.
Application feedback is issued within seven working days from the day of submission.
The entire fireteam gets taken to the battle preparation screen. If one of your team members creates their own battle, they will immediately leave the fireteam.
Right now, our main priority is to root out any possible bugs and decide how to improve the new functionality.
Nevertheless, Spectator Mode, which allows players to watch the battles as they unfold, is already in the works.
Each User Battle increases our servers’ workload. Thus, moving forward, access to the creation of User Battles will be paid.
Participation in such battles will always remain free.
Yes. Both the text and voice chats will be available.
