The latest update for Robocraft bringing with it the new Single Player mode and the Community Robot Factory, which allows players to share their robots with the world or rent/buy other players' robots to try for themselves!
CONTENT
The Community Robot Factory (CRF) is now available to all players
- It can be accessed via the green button at the top-right of the mothership interface
- The CRF allows players to upload their robots to share them with the community
- You can rent another player’s robot for 7 days at the cost of RP
- You can’t rent a robot that uses parts you haven’t unlocked
- You can buy another player’s robot permanently, along with all the parts it used, for GC
- You can’t buy a robot that uses parts you haven’t unlocked
- When a robot you uploaded is rented or bought, you get a share of the RP or GC
- After using a rented/bought robot in battle, you can rate it for combat effectiveness and style
- Players can report an offensive robot
- Sorting system lets you find the exact robot you want
Single Player Mode is now available to all players
- It can be accessed via the Fight menu
- Enemy robots pulled directly from the CRF
- Enemy robots are selected based on your RR Vs theirs
- RP is earned for each robot you kill
BALANCE
- CRF rental costs have been changed since the public testing period, new costs can be found here
- SMG damage no longer drops off over range, base damage remains unchanged – Note that the buff from this damage is only applied to shots fired at enemies over very long distances. This change will not improve SMG damage output in typical low-mid range brawls, and the damage increase is overall very low as DPS over long distances is low due to tap-firing and inaccuracy.
BUGS
- Fixed a bug causing the incorrect robot name to appear when viewing a robot in the CRF
- Fixed an issue which allowed players to rent (and rate) their own robot in the CRF
- Fixed a bug causing the first win 2x bonus not to apply to rented robots
- Fixed an issue causing overclocking adjustment to be disabled in test mode
- Fixed a number of UI/text scaling issues
OTHER
- To improve queue times at lower RRs, The Pit and Team Deathmatch will be limited to max RR only. A lot more info on the reasoning behind this change can be found here.
