Release Highlights 2.08

Release Highlights 2.08

Hello, everyone!

Another month of ceaseless work on improvements to Mech Arena is behind us. Update 2.08 is due to be released soon, and we’ll cover everything it includes in this article.

One important thing to keep in mind: the features described below won’t go live all at the same time. Instead, some of them will appear in the game gradually. Battle Pass Season 8 will be the first to launch, and later we will implement balance changes to buff Surge, the Legendary Scout Mech. Let’s take a closer look!

Miscellaneous

  • Mag Implants for Beam Weapons and Arc Torrents will undergo a small mechanics tweak that their fans will enjoy. Once the Update goes live, the time required to replenish ammo charge for those weapons will no longer increase alongside the Mag size - meaning you’ll get more ammo that reloads a bit faster
  • The issue with the Pilot Specialization Event has been fixed. You’ll receive an appropriate amount of points for each Pilot Level/Rank Up
  • The bug that prevented notifications about incoming Artillery fire from showing up has been fixed. These notifications will be displayed correctly as of Update 2.08

Battle Pass Season 8

A new Battle Pass Season is scheduled to go live soon after Update 2.08. As always, it will offer a variety of rewards such as Resources, XP Boosts, and unique Mech Skins. The yet-unnamed main prize stands out in particular - this feline-themed Juggernaut Skin is a perfect fit for Nova’s flamboyant style, so if you have her in the squad (or even just happen to share her taste!), you know what you aim for this time!

Surge Rebalance

As befits a Legendary Mech, Surge will receive several buffs that should significantly improve its performance in Mech Arena. These changes are as follows:

  • HP increased by 50%
  • Speed increased by 45%
  • Storm Dash Cooldown decreased by 1 second
  • Storm Dash EMP Radius increased by 3 meters

Furthermore, Surge will enter Stealth upon completing Storm Dash and will remain invisible for the duration of the EMP Effect!

Due to the fact that with Plarium Anniversary we've got many events currently going on, the decision was reached to postpone the Vault Blitz a little bit. It is not going anywhere though 🤗

 Good evening, I have some suggestions : 1) have the ability to add more friends than 100. 2) The barrier of aegis must not be an obstacle for allies, the ammo must be able to cross the barrier like panther's but without freezing. 3) Panther should have more hp. Thanks

Thank you for your important remarks, we will forward your comment to the devs!

Tournamanets are still broken on a fundamental level.  Under the current implmentation of tournamnets the ONLY thing that matters is how many times can you mash the play button.  Do it more time than anyone else - YOU WIN! YAY!  If you live on the east coast and want to do well in a tournamanet - F*CK YOU - either stay up until 1:30 am to make sure you stay in the top 3 or go to bed becasue you have to work the next day and see your first place is now 7th place when you wake up because other poepel were able to play more rounds after you went to bed.  

Tournmanetrs need to either last a set number of rounds or a set number of hours from when you start so anyone can compete in them.  By having a limit it will mean your placement in each game you play actually matters.


Excited to see surge upgrades.  Have had a surge in my hanger for a long time and its 100% neeeded but as a surge player - Did you maybe take it a bit too far?  


Rocket mortar - Really excited to see the bug finally fixed (hopefully) with no warning icon but this weapon still needs a nerf.  Given the size of the maps the weapon effectivly has infintite range, and requires no line of sight.  Despite these huge advantages it also has the highest damage in the game.  I have on several ocasions had my Ares (purple star on mech 6 star on pilot) get killed IN A SINGLE HIT from a much lower 3/4 star mortar/pilot (aka they have no where even close to maxed out damage on these weapons / implants and they are still oneshoting a nearly maxed out tank mech).  NO weapon should be doing that much damage in a single hit.  Finally its weakenees (min range and slow reload) is completly offset by REALLY poor map design that allows any rocket mortar player to never leave spawn thus effectivly remining safe from anyone trying to attacxk them as they are always behind a wall of other mechs.  I would like to see them fire more frequnetly but with significant damage drop.


Aegis Barrier - It seems like mosty players are not happy with this mech/ability.  Instead of just making it a Dome version of Panthers ability I would suggest a slightly different take.  Have it amplify damage going out of the dome and reduce damage going into the dome but dosent block attacks in either direction.  This still makes it defensive/suport ability in nature but also allows for some more interesting game play.  


"We are excited about the release of Mech Arena on PC as much as you are and we do hope you’ll love the desktop gaming experience. The wait is almost over, thank you for your patience!"

NO! - This is NOT an acceptable reply.  You told us MONTHS AGO this was "coming soon".  You need to give us more details on where this is at.  Is there a release date?  If not whats going on that is holding up the release.  It's 100% okay to say there are delays but have the decency to treat us like actual people and let us know what the issues are.  We want information even if it's bad news.



 

Your feedback is absolutely valuable, thank you very much for your thorough commentary! We hope you will enjoy the updates within the 2.08 release once all features enter into force. 

As regards the release of Mech Arena on Plarium Play, I can already tell you that the team is currently in the testing stage and we will make an announcement as soon as we know the exact date of the launch.

Is Mech Arena ever going to be lauched on Plarium Play?? It has been nearly two months since you made the announcement. Forgive my impatience, but is the hold up? How hard is it to format a game to a platform that already exists? 

Oh, and I heard that a Legendary Sniper Pilot codenamed: Archangel was in the works. That was three months ago...

O_o Come on, guys, what gives?? The money that I have waiting to spend on that is burning a hole through my wallet and pants. If I have to much longer I'm going have to use that money to replace the clothes that it ruined. Lol

Could you please explain your request a little bit? Are you interested in having multiple Hangars available at the same time?

Yes. And i have posted about it in Mech Arena's official discord server in the #suggestions channel. A lot of people have also agreed with me. It's a really helpful feature which will will be really useful. A lot of players have different set of mechs paired with pilots and implants and weapons. Switching mechs and stuff while switching between Tournament, CPC and 2v2 is a pain. Me and my friends suffer with this a lot it's a time waste. Also i suggest that you people should do a suggestion session or something like that. you can give a google form atleast and know what people actually want... 

Thanks
