Official NA release

Hello dear tributes,

Yes, you read it right, we are opening NA! Now, your next question is probably when, and luckily for you, I have an answer! It will be released to the public on 16/05/2020 at 19:00 UTC. (You can use https://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/ to convert the time).

NA will have the exact same game modes that EU has right now, and we will release all the updates on both regions at the same time. I can say that the next feature update will add the practice servers!
It's also worth mentioning that the NA release will start a new SG season, and that means resetting all stats.

Ranks are for both regions, so if you have donor rank on EU, you will have it on NA too!

See you all soon!

Official PvP improvements

kb-hitreg.jpg

Hello dear tributes,

We said that the knockback was still being worked on, and we have worked on our new knockback settings for you all to enjoy!
We have improved the knockback and made hit registration better since some players had problems with hits. This does not mean that this kb will be final, we want more feedback, and based on that we will decide if we stay with this one, or if it needs further changes.

I'd like to thank our staff team and the players that helped us improve both pvp aspects, and specially to @Jacko, @Hakodate, @Droug and Gae.

Hello dear tributes,

We are working very hard to bring you the best SG experience yet and I am glad to announce that we are coming back better than ever before. There are a lot of changes, and we will be sharing some sneak peeks until we reopen. You will notice that the stats and shop pages are not open, and they will stay closed until the reopening.

When are we reopening? Well, we haven't fixed a date yet, but we expect to be open to everyone by late February.

We will need new staff, so feel free to apply using this template.
It is worth mentioning that we will be giving an in-game rank to those who boost our Discord server.

See you all soon! #BackPlay2020

Hello dear tributes,

I am glad to announce that our FFA has been updated!
Less lag and a new map!

FFA Updates - 09/8/2019 (Info by @Hxzx)

Implemented FFA Maps

Cliff Chaos - Levah & Ondre

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation of Cliff Chaos
Cliff Chaos is a new FFA map based on the theme of a Jungle with steep terrain resulting in very intense PVP throughout the whole map. Within this map you'll notice we have a twist to make things a little more interesting, this includes Tier 1 & Tier 2 pressure pads.

Tier 1 Pads - These pads are the most common to find on Cliff Chaos, allowing the player to gain either ONE positive or negative effect.
Tier 2 Pads - There is only one tier 2 pad on Cliff Chaos and it's located beneath spawn. The difference is that this pad will give the player TWO positive effects.

Tier 1 Effects will last 10 seconds
Tier 2 Effects...

Official New gamemodes!

  • 9,836
  • 17
Hello dear tributes.

Today we are happy to announce some new gamemodes! Some of them were requested by you, and others are brand new.
You will be able to play SoloSG, GodSG and UHCSG tomorrow!

SoloSG

This gamemode has been asked to be added a lot of times. We used to have it, but it didn't receive the amount of players we were expecting. Today, I am happy to say that it's back!
How it works:
  • No teams.
  • Everyone is automatically disguised.
  • Chat is disabled.
  • Real name is revealed when a tribute dies.
  • Separated stats.
  • Bounty is disabled.
  • Sponsor is disabled.
GodSG

When Marvel's Avengers: Endgame was released, we did a special event. Those who played it asked to be added as a permanent gamemode, so here you go! However, please note that we have made some changes to it. As you will see, this is a difficult gamemode to play alone, and all the match has to play together if they want to win.
How it works...

Official BackPlay status update

  • 5,493
  • 0
Hello dear tributes!

It has been a long time since I last posted here, and I think it's time to explain some changes.

First of all, from now on, updates won't be super epic and big. Instead, I will be doing smaller updates that will make the deployment process faster and you will get new features and bug fixes faster.

Regarding maps, I am working with @Albert to bring new maps and making the process easier so maps can be added when accepted on forums. In addition we have heard your feedback and we are working to fix some lag problems in maps such as Zone 85 and Highway, tiering problems in Breeze Island and Solar Frost being unplayable.

We have also got feedback regarding hit register and knockback and we are working to improve and bring you the best experience possible.

It's also important to mention that we are working on a brand new anti cheat.

See you soon <3
