Gotham City Update and First DLC for free!



When the game launched it did so with the assistance of an army of new dedicated servers to drastically reduce latency issues. Along with that they have slightly decreased the Thunder Dragon’s damage to put it on a more even playing field, fixed the quick-scope exploit, made other weapon balance tweaks and even spent some additional time optimizing maps to help with some frame-rate issues. (Oh, and added some more Calling Card unlocks at the early levels!)

But they are not stopping with that. In March they are going to release the first DLC for free, which includes:

A BRAND NEW MAP: The 25th Floor of the Gotham Times building is about to be your playground for destruction! (Just make sure not to fall of the edge.)

JOIN-IN-PROGRESS: Players can now join a match, even after it has started!

MATCHMAKING FIXES: Matchmaking has been totally revamped! Those errors you remember? They’re a thing of the past. Gone. Finito.

NEW WEAPONS: The Falcon Blade (a bullet-blocking katana worthy of warfare in Gotham) and the Kingmaker (a quick-draw pistol that can humble even the mightiest of Mighties) are available to unlock!

A NEW SUPPORT ITEM: Toxic Gas! Leave a cloud of nigh-invisible noxious vapors in your wake, that will impair and damage those foolish enough to follow you.

A MULTITUDE OF NEW COSTUME CHOICES: In addition to the myriad of costume items already available, they are letting you dress up like a luchador, a corporate schlub gone mad, and so much more!

NEW FUN FACT: The new Nimble Fingers Fun Fact will let you capture Gasblasters faster, and attach/detach batters quicker.

MUTE EARLY, MUTE OFTEN: Ever wanted to squelch that guy blasting techno in the pre-game lobby? Now you can! Easy peezy, lemon squeezy.
