Supply Drops[]
We’re adding a system in Rogue Company called Supply Drops and here’s a TLDR:
- Supply Drops will allow players to unlock in-game items while playing Rogue Company.
- There are two versions of supply drops - Reward Supply Drops and Rogue Supply Drops. You can earn Reward Supply Drops through play, or spend Reputation to unlock Rogue Supply Drops.
- There is also an option to unlock Rogue Supply Drops with Rogue Bucks, but we believe the vast majority of Rogue Supply Drops will be unlocked with Reputation.
- Each Reward Supply Drop will give you one item, and each Rogue Supply Drop will give you two items.
- The Supply Table is visible in game, you have an equal chance to obtain each item, and you will only unlock items you currently don’t own.
- Supply Drops are completely optional and offer no advantages in-game.
Ranked Updates[]
The first new season of the new year begins today, granting last season’s rewards and unlocking new ones to earn! We are moving this season of Ranked back to 4v4 and hope you enjoyed our experimental run of 3v3.
Ranked Strikeout[]
To further expand the ranked experience for our players: as an experiment, we are introducing a separate ranked queue for Strikeout. Strikeout has shown to be a very popular game mode and, for a good while, there wasn’t a place that the strikeout diehards could graduate to and have a place in the competitive environment. In this update, please try out the ranked experience for Strikeout, complete with the Draft Pick Rogue Select improvement that we detailed above. Let us know what you think!
Draft Pick[]
In this update, we aim to improve the overall draft pick experience for our ranked and custom games. This overhaul entails a polished new rogue select experience, cleaner ban experience and unique rogue limitations. In addition, players will no longer re-draft their rogues at half-time. This will have players approach their matches in a more tactical ‘give and take’ mindset in the rogue select phase of the match. We hope you enjoy this update and look forward to your feedback
Rewards[]
The following rewards will be given to those who are marked veterans in ranked and to those who have achieved Rogue tier during the active season:
- Play 30 Ranked Games: Gunsmith Avatar
- Achieve Rogue Tier: Cornered Animated Banner
General Changes[]
- Player count reverted to 4v4, from 3v3.
Map Updates[]
Depot[]
In this update, we are reintroducing Depot, a skirmish map that has undergone a visual overhaul to not only meet our standard for quality but also have a better place in the world of Rogue Company. Depot is one of many training grounds used by Rogue Company for Rogues to hone their skills (or even settle scores with each other) to keep in peak condition. We look forward to your feedback!
