:leftwards_arrow_with_hook: Update Logs Library

v0.27 of Robloxian Warriors aims to bring balancing changes, reworks, optimizations/quality of life additions, some new Gear items, etc. Also, this is the first time that Robloxian Warriors is getting proper update/patch notes (though it can be a pain to write down everything that updates bring).

Lots of changes to discuss and list out, so be prepared for a long read (or you can skim through these notes; that’s fine too)!

LEGEND

:heart: HP (health points) - Each and every unit/character possesses an “HP” statistic. If this number reaches zero, said unit/character is then considered “dead”

:boom: Damage - How much HP is lost when an attack connects with a target

:dart: Spread - The closer the number is to zero, the more accurate a particular Gear item or ability is. Usually a statistic for ranged attacks/abilities

:chart_with_upwards_trend: Fire Rate (and other cooldown statistics) - Expressed as “ticks per minute” or how many times an action is repeated in 60 seconds, such as firing a gun

:straight_ruler: Radius (studs) - This numeric statistic will be doubled, resulting in the diameter of a circle

:telescope: Field of View (FOV) - The degrees in which the camera can see the in-game world. The larger the degree, the more the camera can see, though it might be disorientating to view

NEW CONTENT

New Systems

  • A new weapons system was added in this update that will allow flexibility in making new weapons in the future, such as ranged and melee weapons.

    • Many of the existing weapons have migrated to this new system, though not all will have migrated in this update. More weapons that require a rework and new ones will use this system in future updates

  • A custom respawn system was implemented into the game. Allows for unique interactions, such as reviving dead allies using items and abilities:

    • Revived players respawn at the location where they died and are given temporary force fields, becoming invulnerable to damage and have time to adjust to their surroundings
    • Reviving players pauses their respawn timer, giving the reviver time to actually revive their dead allies
    • Cannot revive players that have already been revived
    • Dying now displays UI that indicates the amount of time left before automatically respawning:
    • A piece of text updates according to the current situation:
      • Not being revived → “Auto-respawning…”
      • Being revived by an ally → “You are being revived…”
      • Killed after being revived → “Unrevivable; auto-respawning…”
    • A “Respawn” button will light up after 5 seconds. When clicked, the player’s character respawns immediately, ignoring the timer
    • Respawn Time increased from 05 → 15 seconds

:pushpin: If you encounter any issues with the new systems described above, please report them to me immediately, and please be descriptive with the issue you encountered.

New Playable Content

  • New Gear items: (read in-game description(s) to learn more)

    • Spear of Revengeance: melee weapon with quick attacks, good forward reach, and high mobility

    • Light Staff: a reworked Gear item that was previously known as the Healing Staff. Functions similarly to the Lightning Staff except that it is able to heal ally players/objects with its beam

  • New game mode - Deathmatch Royale:

    • A game mode similar to Team Deathmatch. Similar principles of Team Deathmatch apply to Deathmatch Royale:

      • Opposing teams
      • Eliminate enemy players on opposing teams

    • Additional principles have been added to make Deathmatch Royale feel like a brand new game mode:

      • The game mode is made up of rounds. It is a best of 3 rounds; the first team to have won 2/3 rounds will win the battle
      • Each round will last 150 seconds (2 minutes, 30 seconds), so fights within these rounds will not last that long
      • Each time a round commences, each team’s spawn locations will deactivate
      • When players get KO’d, they do not respawn back onto the battlefield. They instead respawn back at the Lobby, either awaiting the next round or waiting for the battle to end. This means that teams will gradually become smaller until all players on a team are eliminated, thus concluding the round. Serious teamwork is required to pull through!
      • If the timer expires before any team is entirely wiped out, Overtime will initiate. All remaining players will take continuous damage during Overtime
      • When a new round commences, all players will be teleported back to their spawn base. Rinse and repeat the above until a victor emerges

  • This item does not necessarily count as “new”, although it does involve “never-seen-before-content” to a certain extent - Random Special Abilities:

    • A Special Ability is randomly generated after respawning! For v0.27, five Special Abilities will be available in the pool:

      1. Healing Bomb - “Cast to heal yourself and surrounding allies for a large percentage of HP.”
      2. Healing Aura - “Cast to gradually heal yourself and allies within the healing aura.”
      3. (New) Revivification - “Cast to revive surrounding allies who have been downed. Cancels revivification if you die while reviving.”
      4. (New) Tactical Meteorite - “Summon a large meteorite to strike the area in front of you, inflicting massive damage to targets caught in the blast and has a high chance of Burning them.”
      5. (New) Meteorite Shower - “You can aim where you want the meteorite shower to happen before confirming the cast. Explosions caused by the meteorites can Burn targets.”

    • While in battle, when you respawn, you will receive a message letting you know what Special Ability was chosen for you and what it does when you cast it

    :pushpin: Available during v0.27 only; will be replaced by a more sophisticated feature in later updates

BALANCING

General

Shotgun Weapons

  • Shotgun spray pattern changed to be in a shape of a square instead of a rhombus
  • Max pellets for shotgun weapons is 10 across the board, which will decrease the damage output for some shotgun weapons
    • Compensation buffs have been given to those weapons that have been affected by the change listed above

Auto HP Regeneration

  • Regeneration Rate
    • HP greater than 50%: 60 → 150
    • HP less than/equal to 50%: 120 → 300
  • HP Regeneration Tick: 5 → 2 HP

Mobility System Rework & Adjustments

DEVELOPER’S NOTE
The mobility system in Robloxian Warriors is not as well balanced was I would like it to be, especially when players can abuse the system to gain unfair advantages. Players can still sprint even when they are using a weapon or Gear item, and there is no penalty to dashing as players can perform them indefinitely. I have made the effort of temporarily reducing players’ jump power when they receive damage, but clearly, it is not enough.

For v0.27, I have decided to reinvent the mobility system to be more flexible, optimized, and easy to implement into the current game. This brand new ability system marks the return of the Stamina system, something that was taken out of the game at its very early stages of development, and puts in reasonable limitations so that players will be less inclined to abuse the system.

Please continue reading below to find out more!

  • Mobility system reworked:

    • Reenabled the Stamina system, which determines the amount of actions that can be performed before having to replenish back Stamina:

      • By default, players possess a maximum of 100 Stamina (NOT 100%)
      • Each time Stamina is being consumed, disregarding the amount consumed, a timer will begin to count down. This indicates the time needed to wait before Stamina will begin to replenish
      • If Stamina is consumed before this timer expires, the timer will reset, thus repeating the cycle:
        • Cooldown Timer: 2 seconds
      • 20 Stamina is replenished every second when Stamina is not being consumed
      • For players, a circular gauge will appear when Stamina is being consumed. The gauge will pulse red to indicate that the player has low Stamina

    • Sprinting will gradually consume Stamina when the player moves while their “Sprinting” state is active:

      • Sprinting Walk Speed: 32 studs per second (unchanged)
      • 5 Stamina is consumed per second, meaning players can sprint for ~20 seconds at max Stamina
      • When Stamina is fully depleted, the player’s character will stop sprinting
        -Dashing has seen major adjustments in this system rework:
      • Dash Speed: 50 → 45 studs
      • Each dash performed will consume 10 Stamina; players can dash 10 times at max Stamina, traveling 450 studs in total
      • Dashes can now be performed in any direction; forward (default), backwards, left, right, and even diagonally

  • Taking damage will no longer temporarily reduce jump power

:pushpin: More changes to the Stamina system will be introduced in future updates!

Gear Items

DEVELOPER’S NOTE
As previously mentioned, a new weapons system was created to easily create new weapons in the future, including projectile-based weapons, hitscans, and melee weapons. That said, a lot of new additions/reworks were given to the weapons listed below along with balancing changes.

A feature of the weapons system is equipment delay. Equipment delay, to put it short and sweet, is a small period of time where the weapon needs to be “readied” in order to use it after equipping it. For example, when equipping the UZI, there is a 0.7-second delay before you are able to fire shots. This feature is to prevent quick-swapping to different gear items and immediately attacking, especially since players are allowed 3 slots to assign their gear to.

Light Staff (previously known as the Healing Staff)

DEVELOPER’S NOTE
I did not feel like the Healing Staff was serving much purpose since it is practically useless when there are not any allies to heal. So, I opted to rework this weapon by change its attributes and gameplay style to be similar to the Lighting Staff. Now, the weapon is known as the Light Staff, with its functionalities being much more flexible and fun to play with (in my opinion at least)!

I do hope this rework will be satisfactory. Please provide me with any feedback about this weapon should you feel the need to do so.

Special Abilities

Healing Aura

  • Healing Rate: 120 → 180
  • Healing Radius: 49 → 42 studs
  • Healing Duration: 20 → 25 seconds
    • Heal Amount per Count: 7 → 5 HP
    • Overall Healing: 280 → 375 HP

Healing Bomb

  • Cooldown: 30 → 35 seconds
  • Healing Radius: 15.0 → 12.5 studs

    • Max Points (one stack of Burn): 64 → 45 points

Freeze

  • Now awards points when successfully freezing targets: 25 points

OPTIMIZATIONS/QUALITY OF LIFE

  • Optimized players’ characters’ jumping/falling animations so that aiming while airborne is less off-putting and more aligned with the center reticle
    • This was done by overriding the loaded jumping/falling animations with custom animations. The jumping/falling animations set on your Roblox avatar will be replaced by the custom ones when you enter the game
  • Fixed an issue whereby resetting your character through the Roblox ESC menu would only kill your character but fail to prompt an option to respawn
  • Fixed an issue whereby the blurring effect would not disable itself upon respawning as well as other occurrences where the blurring effect does not disable itself
  • Fixed an issue whereby the zooming functionality when zooming in with certain Gear items would sometimes fail to work
  • Fixed an issue whereby casting the “Healing Aura” Special renders the aura itself as a hitbox that could be detected by melee weapons. Melee weapons should no longer consider the healing aura as a hitbox
  • Fixed an issue whereby rewards were not correctly distributed after successfully completing a Boss Rush battle, thus resulting in the game breaking
  • Fixed an issue whereby the blurring effect when opening the player menu would not toggle, only toggling after a while later
  • Fixed an issue whereby all players are incorrectly invulnerable to damage during battles, unable to progress the match

MISCELLANEOUS

Game Mode Adjustments

DEVELOPER’S NOTE
Some game modes may have received a score limit attribute. These score limits are in place in case a team has accumulated enough points to reach the limit, thus concluding the battle even if the timer has not expired.

Keep Control

  • Battle Duration: 6 → 7 minutes
    • Score Limit: 200 points
    • Points for Capturing a Keep: 1000 → 750 points
    • Points distribution:
      • Rate: 5 → 3 seconds
      • Points for maintaining control of a Keep: 15 → 25 points
    • Overtime mechanics added:
      • Overtime can only be initiated if the losing team is lagging behind the winning team by a certain amount of points, owns at least one Keep, and when there is not a tie in points for both teams
        Overtime is broken if the winning team controls all Keeps on the battlefield or when the “losing” team’s points is greater than the “winning” team’s points.
      • Players on both teams will receive a message depending on whether they are on the losing team or winning team if Overtime happens to initiate

Crystal Defense

    Charge the staff to fire a beam of light that damages enemies and heals allies. Sparks of Light energy will appear where the beam is pointing at, inflicting splash damage/splash healing to nearby targets.

    The amount of damage inflicted/HP restored to allies via the beam is dependent on the distance between the caster and their target; damage and healing decreases as distance increases.

The game still has a long journey ahead before it can fully complete development, but I am very blessed and thankful that there are people who are passionate in helping the game grow. Thank you everyone for their continued support, whether you have played the game just yesterday or months ago.
