This time we have added a lot of Easter content which is all part of the Easter 2019 event that is starting soon. Next to that we have made some improvements overall and we have done some performance optimizations. Overall a nice patch!   Now, let's jump into the patch notes.   [u][b][u]Easter 2019 event:[/u][/b][/u] https://youtu.be/07g0Ij6s5DA With Easter upon us, we will be doing a week long event to celebrate this special date! New theme skins (which will be limited) will be brought out! You will be able to hunt for Easter Eggs on the map and also have Easter Egg wars with friends and enemies. There will also be a special character model given to all players during the event to celebrate this Holiday.

[b]GENERAL:[/b] [list] [*] Players can now see the amount of players queuing in that region when queuing. Hopefully this will motivate players more to stay longer in a queue; before players would leave when queuing for 5 minutes because a game wasn't starting. This is a very understandable behavior but unfortunately that has lead to not a lot of games starting and a lot of players not being able to play this game-mode yet. (Here is how it looks BTW:) [img]https://i.imgur.com/zgy5qH2.png[/img] [/*][/list] [b]Village (Competitive):[/b] [list] [*] Contest point B has been moved more towards the defending team's spawn.

[/*][/list]   [u][b][u]Survival Updates:[/u][/b][/u] [b]Maps:[/b] We are going to update the available maps in Survival.
