We've got some exciting news to talk about today. DiscStorm is getting a major update! This should come as no surprise if you've followed our blog ove the last few months, however, after plenty of testing we're happy to announce that the DiscStorm Mulitplayer Update will be launching July 2016 on Steam. This update is packed full of features and we can't wait to get it into your hands. Here's what's in the patch:
We're adding three new multiplayer modes, each introduces a new way to beat your friends. There's the strategic Safeguard where holding onto your disc is essential, the score based Capture the Flag mode where you need to be in the right place at the right time and the frantic Poison where you need to chase after the cure to the zombie outbreak.
Fancy playing DiscStorm for more matches, want to only play a particular mode or on your favourite three arenas? The customisation menu lets your tweak all aspects of a multiplayer from how many rounds you need to win to whether voting or powerups are enabled.
We've vastly improved the AI in multiplayer, they have unique behaviours for each mode and they also have their own personalities. We feel this makes the AI mimic humans a lot better so they're not the superhumans that they currently are but still put up a challenge and can respond to different situations a lot better!
This isn't a comprehensive list of features and there's a whole bunch more content bundled away including:
