Hello Robocrafters We have now released the latest update Plan, Adapt, Eliminate to Robocraft! This update contains the following core highlights

• Event system added
• Gravity added to each of the three planets
• Elimination game mode added with 10 vs 10
• Weapon balance changes

We did come across a few issues with our visibility condition for the event system. This meant that the fog was not behaving as expected. Certain parts could still be visible through even the thickest fog and lock on weapons were still able to target players through the fog. We were considering delaying this update once more to fix these issues. However as we had already delayed this build once and understand there is a lot of demand to play Elimination, we have decided to force our event system to always select Clear skies for all maps for now. At 10:00Am UTC+1 on 17th of May 2019 we will be entering maintenance to implement a hot fix for the visibility conditions. This will last for approximately one hour Additionally, we are aware that players are experiencing some server issues, the team responsible for the server are still working on these issues. Id like to thank everyone who has reported the problems officially, sent output logs and screenshots. We really do hope that this can be resolved soon.

Event System

Youll be told of the current map, game mode and its conditions BEFORE you even choose to join a game. This means you can select an appropriate robot for the situation. The event viewer will display the following conditions

• Map Name
• Game Mode
• Gravity
• Visibility conditions (Currently set to clear at all times)
• Auto healing active or disabled
• Air density

The event system will refresh every hour at random so you have enough time to make adjustments to your robots or select one robot from your garage that will work with the current event conditions.

Elimination Returns!

A highly requested game mode returns to Robocraft! When Elimination is selected from the event system, this game mode will come with a few other conditions which are not available in any other game mode.

• The team size will increase to ten
• Auto healing will be disabled
• There will be no respawns

We will be keeping an eye on the performance of this game mode over the coming days. This includes any performance drops or even if there are more active players while this game mode is active. We know a lot of you have been really looking forward to playing this game mode and I hope you all enjoy it! Alongside these updates are a round of balance changes based upon community feedback.
