Desert Rose Update[]
This week’s update to Rogue Company has more additions and fixes than Dima carries grenades! First up, we have a brand new map that will take you to the dark bowels of a Venezuelan prison. You’ll be able to drop into this map immediately with our brand new Custom Matches system to practice, play with friends, or hold your own competition! Finally, don’t just play your Rogue, but also master them with our new Mastery system to earn unique rewards.
General Updates[]
- We’ve received a lot of feedback around the Text Chat system; based on that, we believe it still needs some work. We disabled this functionality pending further overall improvements to the system.
- Hipfire Aim Assist on controller for all weapons standardized to 8.5m. This change aims to slightly reduce the efficiency of Aim Assist in close-range engagements and provides a more consistent experience across the board.
- Rogue Bucks and Reputation prices have been adjusted for Rogue unlocks. Each of the following Rogues will now be unlocked for either 600
or 15,000 
:
- "Friendly Fire" adjustments:
- Gadgets and abilities will now deal 75% damage to teammates.
- Reverse "Friendly Fire" will now trigger upon dealing 250 damage, instead of 300.
Rogue Mastery[]
- It’s one thing to play a Rogue, but quite another to master them! With the introduction of masteries, you’ll earn your way to specific sprays, emotes, and more!
- Each match in Versus mode will award Mastery Experience based on your performance.
- If you played more than one Rogue during a match, the experience will be split equally between them.
- You will receive a reward at each Mastery level, with 10 levels currently available.
- Levels 1 and 3 are currently the only ones to have rewards, which include a spray and an exclusive emote to that Rogue.
- In an upcoming update, we’ll add 3 additional cosmetic rewards which tie into the Player Identity system.
- In the future, we’ll also unlock the Mastery page to let you view all the potential rewards.
- Any levels you complete will unlock those rewards retroactively once they are introduced.
- Note: This is still a system for our Beta and will receive additional improvements and additions
Custom Matches[]
- The Desert Rose update will introduce a brand new feature allowing groups of players to create their own matches! Whether you want to scrim like pros or simply match up against your friends, this will allow you to provide a more customized experience.
- The Match Host will select which mode (Strikeout, Demolition) Extraction) will be played and then select the map from the available choices.
- Each match will require 2 players to launch.
- Next the Host will select players from their friends list and send invites to the Lobby.
- Players can be moved from team to team via the Move button or removed from the Lobby.
- After each match there will be a Play Again option.
- Note: You will not earn Reputation, Experience, or Mastery Experience in a Custom Match.
Ping System[]
- We know voice chat isn’t for everyone and in a heated battle, text chat may not get the job done. In this update, we are introducing a new Ping system that will let you communicate common call-outs that will help your team coordinate.
- Open up the communication wheel to access the following commands (clockwise):
- Defend Here
- All Clear
- Hold Position
- Chancel That
- Group Up
- Understood
- Help Me
- Enemies Moving
- You’ll also have access to a number of quips for Rogues which can be found by using the left mouse button while the Communication wheel is open:
- Hello
- Thank You
- Nice
- Good Shot
- You Rock
- Sorry
- I'm the Best
- You're Welcome
