Patch Notes 2024年12月4日
Hotfixes
16.12.2024
- Fixed an issue where the leaderboard would load slowly or sometimes display an incorrect position.
- Players will no longer be locked in the Pause menu if they attempt to surrender while using a controller. (Note: The known issue where the Pause menu remains unresponsive until the surrender countdown ends will be resolved in the next update.)- Fixed an issue preventing players from starting a surrender vote if they disconnected and reconnected after a failed surrender attempt.
- Matches will now be correctly canceled if a player disconnects during the loading screen.
Ranked Changes
These are changes we wanted to include in 1.2.2 but were delayed. In 1.2 we removed the promotion game between Divisions without changing the way demotion worked and unintentionally caused a lot of players to move up in Ranks faster then their internal MMR. We are now taking more VP away from a player when they are demoted to counter balance the removal of promotional games as will as changing VP gains in Platinum so player's have less net negative VP when they have outpaced their rank.
- Reverted the change in 1.2 for VP gains to Platinum III and Plat II.
- Slightly adjusted VP gains in Gold I and Gold II.
- When demoted from a Division or Rank, VP is now set to 75 (previously it was 90).
- Reduced Demotion Protection between Ranks for Gold and Platinum.
Introduction
Greetings Champions!
It feels like it was just last week when we launched V1.2. We’ve been overwhelmed by the avalanche of positive messages and comments you’ve sent our way, keeping us motivated through these long dark nights as we worked on a Balance Update fit to follow 1.2.
To wrap up the year we’re excited to share Balance Update 1.2.2, stuffed full of new skins, balance tweaks and more to tie a bow on 2024.
Let’s get stuck in!
Winterfest 2024
The festive season is fully upon us and Predecessor has been transformed for the holidays! Snow has fallen, Argus is glaring at us from the main menu, and the Peppermint Kallari skin is finally back in season! Sweet!
A New Battlepass Format
Winterfest has landed, bringing with it plenty of seasonal content via Predecessor’s first Battle Pass!
A flurry of seasonal rewards awaits anyone prepared to venture out into the festivities, such as all-new profile cosmetics and the exclusive new Yuletide Zinx Skin!
XP Changes
Following feedback from the event’s launch last week, we’ve increased the amount of Winterfest XP you can earn from playing matches. There’s never been a better time to grind out those festive treats!
- Increased Winterfest XP gained in Standard and Ranked by 80%.
- Increased Winterfest XP gained in Brawl by 110%.
These changes will take effect with V1.2.2 and will apply to XP earned from that point onward.
Event Information
Winterfest runs until January 7th, so there’s plenty of time to jump in and grind! For more information about Winterfest, check out our dedicated Winterfest 2024 blog.
