The changes in this update are designed to reduce the capabilities of part of all weapons and special items, based on the analysis of statistical data, which had benefited from the results.
Our aim is that this will entice players to test these weapons, while keeping their weapons in the most profitable position.
We identify various types of statistical data in this transition, but especially for those who limit the capabilities of specific weapons, focusing on data from games among high-level players.
We will release future updates after taking a closer look at the changes from this review, as well as the state of statistical data over the long term.
Other Changes
- Changed the opening conditions for Tracks # 20 to # 26 on squid Beatz 2 so that anyone can play them.
- You have extended the time limit for playing your next game after you disconnect during a shorter period.
- This change will only affect those with regular connections, less than 1% of all active players worldwide.
- The more frequent your connection in the shorter, the shorter the playing time your next game will be.
- If you download the latest update data, you will no longer be able to contact players on The Shoal who have the old update details.
