Dear Players,It's been three weeks since Esports Life: Ep.1 - Dreams of Glory was released and here we are with the first big update. As you know, we've been very active in the community forums interacting daily with our users. Upwilly, the project director, has been reading and even answering user posts and we've gathered lots of knowledge to work on improving the game.
Patch notes- Two new teams join us! Welcome, Team Solo Mid and Team iMPacT.
- New main menu and new game mode: Amateur career
- No story to follow
- All locations are unlocked
- Manage up to 3 teams
- We strongly suggest that newbie players stick to the story or they can feel lost.
- Easier path to the Gameszone Tournament: grinding Elo score is now faster.
- Optional minigames: Now you can skip the minigames, although at the cost of a worse performance.
- Revamped GUI: Main menu and league GUIs have been improved. The enemies are now larger in the shooter minigame, and you can use R to reload.
- Match gameplay improvements: We heard your complaints about the match and we've taken several actions to improve its pace and make it easier to understand
- Skippable combat phase
- Simulate matches from team selection
- New "vision" phase to make it easier to understand
- The IA has been improved so it picks better cards, based on the team Elo.
- Improved deck manager.
- Friends are not always available anymore, especially at night.
- Reduced mother presence through the whole game.
- Lower Elo players can now be recruited. Keep in mind this will lower the team's score.
- Hats can now be taken off and equipped again. And there are new masks in the cosplay store.
- Tons of minor fixes and localisation improvements, although we plan to further improve the quality of the game translations.
Once again, you're welcome to join the community forums here:
http://steamcommunity.com/app/704830/discussions/Shortly, we'll be talking about our plans for the next update (mid to late January) and the introduction of the PT-BR and RU localisations, which weren't ready for today, but we hope to have them by next week.
Happy holidays,
The U-Play Online Team
PD: Mac version will be available tomorrow.
