Patch 1.31 - Improvements and Bug Fixes

Thank you to everyone who's provided feedback and the overwhelmingly positive response to our latest content update. Today we're launching a small patch to fix a bunch of the issues that were found and improve on some of the systems already in place.
We've made a lot of improvements to the bots in the game, including a way to disable them if you would like to play with only your friends. Bot pathing has been completely reworked so they will no longer get stuck if they get knocked off the path. Raptors also see some improvements that should level the playing field against those tasty humans. To disable bots on your dedicated server simply add the following code to the launch options: -NoBots When hosting a p2p match simply untick Allow Bots when starting the match. Below is a list of the changes/fixes that made it into this patch.

Additions:

- Added the ability to turn off bots in hosted games and on private servers - Added logic to bots so they can react to taking damage (provided they don't have a closer target already) - Added Raptor health regen

They will run away when health reaches less than 5 instead of less than 30

Bug Fixes:

- Fixed potential crash - Lowered spawn points on the plane in Picnic Panic to prevent getting stuck - Fixed incorrect win/loss screens on Toybox CTF - Fixed vote kick not showing the name of who was voted to kick - Fixed bots jittering when moving up/down slopes - Potentially fixed bots getting stuck in objects - Completely reworked bot pathing system so they will no longer just stop moving because they lost the navigation path - Fixed Facebook link being incorrect on main menu - Fixed fatal error crash when p2p host quit the match - Fixed potential for extremely rare issue where main menu widgets wouldn't load and players could get stuck at main menu - Fixed navigation in Hamster FFA map - Fixed issue where bots could potentially not attack targets but instead would just jitter aiming at the target - Fixed collision on lemonade container in Picnic Panic - Fixed potential for Raptor to run in place when killed

BOTS!!!!

The big news of course is that BOTS are finally available in The Mean Greens! Bots are automatically added to any team deathmatch or free for all map.

New Maps

New Map Gamemodes

We've also created Team Deathmatch and Free For All versions of our current maps. Some of these maps are the same as the current versions, others are slightly altered and some are completely reworked for these game modes! Toybox Assault even gets a capture the flag game mode!

Ranks & Leaderboards

This update also sees our ranks and leaderboards implemented. Ranks are increased as players gain more and more experience, and are the perfect way to show everyone how skilled you are. Work your way up from Private all the way to Commander. Then check the leaderboards to see how you stack up against your friends.

New Characters

5 new unique soldier characters have been added to the game and we've also added the ability to choose which character you spawn as in the new Customization menu.

Optimizations and Bug Fixes

Throughout development we have been making massive improvements to the optimization of the game with some maps seeing significant frame rate improvement. Complete systems have been reworked to be more efficient and overall the game should run much smoother for everyone.

A Holiday Surprise From Virtual Basement

Happy Holidays from Virtual Basement

We hope everyone is having a great holiday season! Hopefully you are getting to spend time with loved ones and getting some quality gaming time in as the year draw to an end. As a bit of a Christmas gift from us here at Virtual Basement, we wanted to let everyone in on what we've been secretely working on lately! We have been hard at work behind the scenes creating more than just awesome new maps like the recently released Lazy Hamster map. So without further ado, here's what we're currently working on:

BOTS!!!!!

That's right, we have been actively working on an AI system that can handle the vast array of game types we have in The Mean Greens. This will allow you to play offline as well as help fill up servers.

Ranking System

In addition to bots players have been asking for a ranking system, and we've been listening. We have a ranking system designed and are working on implementating. We're not quite ready to outline the details of how the ranking system will works quite yet but I can assure everyone that it will not give players with higher ranking any advantages over lower ranked players.

More Maps

On top of all that awesomeness we're still designing and developing more maps/modes for The Mean Greens all being released in FREE updates! Here's a few maps/modes that are in development: - Picnic Panic - Jurassic Plastic - Halloween Hustle - And More!

Steam Sale

The Mean Greens is still part of Steam's Winter Sale and Mean Greens is at it's best price EVER! 75% off! That's right, you can now pick up Mean Greens for under $2.50! http://store.steampowered.com/app/360940/The_Mean_Greens__Plastic_Warfare/ These new additions are all pretty huge and they will take some time for us to polish up but we didn't want to keep it a secret any longer! We hope everyone is as excited about this as we are. Please feel free to discuss this in the forums or in our Official Discord server https://discord.gg/zP4twkW

We're not quite ready to outline the details of how the ranking system will works quite yet but I can assure everyone that it will not give players with higher ranking any advantages over lower ranked players.

What does a bathtub, sunken boats, rubber ducks and a giant octopus have in common? The Mean Greens Bathtub Bash that’s what! Hop onto the floating rubber ducks and ride to the sunken ships in the middle of the map. Avoid crossfire, grab a flag off of the ship, and carry it to your base. The team with the most flags at the end of the round wins.

It’s game night! As The Mean Greens battle against each other in an all-out paper-craft war, more than dice will roll across this table. Go head-to-head as tan and green teams fight for control of the city. The objective is simple, be the first team to reach 30 kills.

Even a beautiful aquatic adventure has its dangers. Run over aquarium décor and capture flags in sunken ruins as you square off in an underwater playground. Fight your way across the duel bridges to steal the flag that sits in the sunken temples.
This map puts a whole new twist on the traditional capture the flag mode with its “Low – gravity” action and captivating nautical theme.

It’s full on war to conquer the countertop in this decked out kitchen! Push the other team’s cup off the counter and destroy their only way to zipline into your territory.

The mood is a bit chilly as you fight your way through this food-filled freezer. Everyone melts the ice cube in the center to get to the lower level, and then it’s a mad rush as you try to free your frozen dinosaur before the opposing team releases theirs.

This train is leaving the station with or without you! Enjoy this Christmas themed level while you travel over holiday sweets to claim your capture points on this nostalgic toy train. It’s tug-of-war, as both tan and green teams battle back and forth to maintain control of all three capture points.

This farm style soccer match is a new take on Foosball that you’ve never experienced before. Shoot, blast, and push the ball into the enemies’ barn to score the most points. Don’t drop the ball and watch out for the moving 3-rod pigs and cows.

Got game? Explore a colorful world on top of chessboards, boxes, and racetracks. Hold the center of the map in this traditional King of the Hill game mode. Just don’t get hit by the other team or the racing cars.

It’s birthday time, but the other team is full of party-poopers that don’t want the festivities to begin. Fight your way up the cake and start the celebration by lighting all the candles on each layer. The attacking team must jump from the gelatin launch pad and onto the multi-layered cake to light each candle. The defending team must fend off the other team’s attempts to light each wick until time is up.

Turn the tables on your opponent in this death match. Be as crafty as you can to survive and mark your territory. Perfect the art of combat and chalk up those points to make it into the Champions Circle!
