Read today's patch notes for a few bug fixes we are addressing from yesterday's patch. Read more: Patch Notes - October 22nd, 2016
Initial changes to fix some severe reach bugs that have been discovered - this mainly affects Alfars and female characters. Nice changes, u guys are on fire!
Yeah, kinda dumb that you fixed the reach without including race changes. I've got the money sitting right here, take it.
This is awesome, you guys are machines! I bet someone or some people didn't even sleep last night while they slaved away improving the game. Thanks so much!
i'm a bit out of touch; what was the issue with female character reach? race reach differences were obvious, but i don't recall females being preferred for anything outside of being thinner, taking up less screen space & having smaller hitboxes.
Plenty of talk about human females being the strongest race due to their reach vs hitbox compared to males.
We'll be having a follow up patch later in the week after we monitor this where we will go into the exact specifics of it. TL;DR Alfar reach was bugged and female character was always preferential.
Yeah what was changed exactly with female characters? Hope they got a very very slight nerf to reach so males/females are more balanced now. --- Post updated --- I dont think females had more reach than males.
Alfar have been buffed a bit, females calculations are now done correctly, but the results we get for them are not applied yet (currently female reach = male reach. There were bugs in female reach calculations that we fixed). We are waiting on finishing balancing before deciding if female reach will be shorter or not.
The reach of both alfar male and female have been increased. yes. It always been the same for genres.
