Here we are with another patch notes:

  • Improved Battle Royale performance!

  • Added Christmas decorations on Battle Royale map, Hospital and Military Base map
  • Military Base Map: we removed the maze in the center of the map so you can have better duels at the center of the map. We removed the cave completely
  • Invincible buff applied after player respawning. It's now 12 seconds for Military Base, remains 5 seconds for hospital
  • Penalty System: game can know detect player's AFK. Warning him or kick him out depend on AFK duration
