Capture The Flag: Empire

A new map is available for Capture The Flag: Empire.

Developer note: The first CTF patch is nearly complete. We're delighted with the solutions we've come up with and feel they will correct many of the game's pain points. Capture The Flag is a very map-dependant game, so in the meantime, we hope you enjoy this brand new map!

Keep an eye on this website for more information.

Capture The Flag: Campsite

A new map is available for Capture The Flag: Campsite.

Developer note: In addition to more maps, we're currently working on a balance patch for Capture The Flag. We'll be addressing issues such as spawn camping, changing how flags are contested, as well as tweaking some of the items and upgrades. We hope to have this update ready soon.

Keep an eye on this website for more information.

In-game patch notes!

To improve in-game communication of changes and updates, we're happy to announce in-game patch notes have arrived on The Hive.

When there are unread patch notes, a book will appear in your inventory in the relevant game, and will stay there until you've read it.

Want to read older patch notes? /patchnotes during lobby will get you the book back when you want it. These will, over time, be available in all supported languages.

In-game patch notes are now live on The Bridge, and will appear over time in all games as they receive updates.

The Bridge: Automatic Kit Saving

A much-requested feature for The Bridge is now being deployed slowly across all regions. This update brings an automatic kit-saver to the game.

Automatic Kit Saving

  • Kit items slots are now persistent between rounds and Bridge servers
  • Moving items will automagically store the layout

Kit Changes

  • You now only start with 1 stack of blocks
  • Blocks are regenerated (to a max of 32) on death

Developer note: The block changes are a result of both community feedback, and making the kit editor easier to use. Multiple stacks of blocks can over-complicate a kit layout, so we felt this change would be good to trial to ensure the best kit-editing experience.

We understand this could affect the block economy and are paying close attention. Please leave your feedback on this post or our discord server to help shape the future of The Bridge.

Thanks for your feedback so far, and happy bridging!

Capture The Flag: Mini-Patch

A mini-patch for Capture The Flag is currently deploying to all regions. This patch focuses on fixing teleporter trapping.

Teleporter Trapping Fix

  • Added a no-build radius around teleporters
  • Added block-decay for nearby blocks around teleporters when a player exits that teleporter

Developer note: We're currently going through all the CTF feedback to create the first balance patch. However, we wanted to address this issue faster as it can impact gameplay heavily. Thank you all for the amazing feedback so far, and keep an eye out for the balance patch coming soon.
