The Semi-Official Duck Game Update Thread

[eighty]

Hey Duck Gamers!

I know you guys have been patiently (or not) waiting for the new update and have been getting annoyed by the lack of official statements being posted here. Basically Landon & I have been too busy(lazy in my case) to post any kind of official announcement. So, I'm going to basically compile info on the update.

THE UPDATE IS COMING.

Yes, it's true. The update is finally nearing. Landon estimates ~2 months just a little more waiting friends!

Update Teases

There is definitely more that I missed, I'll update when I find more/when Landon posts more!

In closing

However, the PS4 version won't have access to the Steam Workshop, or a PS4 equivelent to downloading and sharing levels. Basically, on the PS4 version, you will have to stick with the vanilla levels, weapons and hats. So there will have to be a specific option FOR cross-play that disables custom hats, weapon mods and levels.

it would be worth having more players on DG tho, i only ever play the vanilla levels anyway and vanilla hats are aight

I play vanilla stages often too, because everyone knows those stages. But I like custom too. Don't forget hats, I don't wanna lose my profile picture hat (as of now).

As far as it seems the game sends the level and custom level textures to other players directly without using the workshop as it sends it to players one by one, but i may be wrong

I'd still like a single player for DG, since when superjoebob originally started making this game it was intended to be a platform

Would be pretty awesome imo to see his original vision of the game 'come to life'

Broduck, will there be a ranking system of some sort?

As far as I currently know, there is not a ranking system.

It's something Landon has wanted to do since games like Rocket League do it, although I'm unsure if it's in the PS4 port.

Will server-searcher be updated?
And how about optimization features?

I'm not sure about a server browser but I believe the issue with AFK hosts is fixed. Not sure what you mean about optimization features? DG is super low end and doesn't require a super beast rig to run? The super crappy laptop I'm on right now works well with DG.

Another solution would be a general PSA feature for people making maps. Just warnings for when they add too many props props, lights, fire, etc, or other such things because they kill the FPSs of those with lesser rigs such as myself. Not a big problem on vanilla maps though.

Lets hope this Update comes with a discount for a playerbase growth!

Too many props of that kind kill FPS on ALL rigs.
