Hi Daeron - will this include a new Summer Bundles package as well?

Did you fix the graphical error that causes AMD users to be vaporwave vision bound before starting this?

Why not a 400t limit instead of 100t mechs only?

[Frankenst3in]

May need to drop it to 8 v 8 so matches kick off faster, or switch to one of the more popular modes. Urbie Derby is fun, but very few people really sit down and play it for hours like the drop deck modes.

From want was mentioned before about it should be 400T total weight.

But I guess will find out the details later.

400t limit ≠ 100t assault only

Yes good. Good opportunity to familiarize with the map.

The new map needs a color adjustment. Waaaaay too much reddish purple. It makes me queasy looking at it. That new map is great in night mode and the stone rhino. I tried doing a run, in testing grounds. It was a little better. I like that the urbie derby was using domination instead of skirmish all the time. skirmish, assault, and domination. conquest, incursion, and invasion would be difficult.

[Chound]

Is the stone rhino signaling a change in strategy? The gauszilla has clan weapons and hardware on it. being able to mix the two would bring an interesting twist in mech building.

Urbie Derby needs to be a regular thing, this is fun.

[st3kky]

Why only 12 hours event? Cannot participate, though I need to work...

I agree! I had fun this time and I really enjoyed it the last time too. My only minor gameplay gripe is the unlimited jump jets gets a bit ridiculous. Maybe scale it "back" to 3x or 4x "capacity" or decrease the gravity (please keep the no fall damage).

I don't know the potential technical challenges, but it would also be great if we could hop into another match after dying before the current match finishes.
