- Reflex 1.2.0 - Betamax Edition - 11 March 2018
Hey lads, So the long-lasting 1.2 is finally upon us! Quite a few changes have occurred! We'll be going in to beta for this one to ensure things are stable as a lot of things have changed under-the-hood. Custom Rulesets: Let's go through a bit of history. Over the years people have given great passionate feedback about their balancing concerns. This has been both exciting to see and also a very fine line to walk as everyone has a different perspective. We started with just one "Reflex" and modified the game accordingly. After a while we split Reflex into two rulesets, "casual" and "competitive". This allowed us to have a "casual" version for new/casual players while keeping the high end play wrapped up in the "competitive" mode. After some time with this setup we wanted to try out different balancing options. We didn't want to just change the "competitive" ruleset around often for two r…
