“We’re switching things up a bit today,” began the studio’s post over on Reddit. “While we test out different maximum player counts in Quads, we’re boosting Duos from 88 to 100 per match on all platforms. Let us know how hunting down an extra dozen targets out there feels in Duos.”
So what’s new?
Blackout
- 100-Player Duos
- 100-Players Duos is now the Featured playlist for Blackout.
- 88-Player Quads
- Quads playlist is now 88 maximum players. We’re continuing to update various game settings to ensure the best experience for all players across all platforms and modes.
More features, more ways to play. More changes are on the way for the battle royale mode but the FPS has just gotten started having only just released this month. So far the feedback regarding Blackout has been massively positive, even sporting some pretty impressive plays so far!
The team also added a few key stability improvements as well:
- Fixed a crash occurring during initial boot of the game for some users.
- Fixed a crash when disconnecting from a Blackout match.
- Fixed a crash occurring when multiple windows were broken simultaneously in a Blackout match.
- Fixed a crash when browsing unlockable Items.
- Fixed crashes occurring when changing texture quality.
- Improved handling of “Out of Memory” errors.
