Patch Notes[]
[ NEW FEATURES AND CONTENT ]
- Replaced Competitive mode "Join in Progress" matchmaking system with "Queued" matchmaking.
- Searching for a Competitive game, either from "Find a Game" or "Play with Friends," will enter the player/s ( between 1 and 5 ) into a waiting queue. Once 10 compatible players are found then the game will begin.
- Players that disconnect from a match can reconnect to it from the main menu or abandon it. Abandoning a game will result in a cooldown period during which no new competitive match can be joined.
- Note: Elo will be recalibrated for the new matchmaking system over the coming weeks.
- New maps:
- de_vertigo is now available for Classic Casual and Classic Competitive.
- ar_monastery is now available for Arms Race.
