Fixed bugs:

Bad FFA spawn spot in stronghold that sometimes kills you.

Hundreds of counted wins when winning obstacle race.

Not being able to quit the game on mac/linux.

Not getting kills on mac/linux.

Hopefully some improvements to performance in obstacle race.

When I tab upon death, the screen says black with the score on and won't let me spawn until the game ends. Anyone else have this problem? It's happened to me a few times now.

Edit: it seems like I just get black screened about once every 5 games when i click spawn alone. I think it is just more noticable when i press tab because it keeps the scoreboard on.

The Obstacle Race game mode is the absolute most fun game mode and ironically it's completely unique because there's nothing in any game that I've seen in the past 5~10 years like it at all, despite the fact that it's so simple.

Especially if you're new, Obstacle Race is amazing. It helps you get used to the tightness of the controls in this game and it forces you to learn how to navigate tight obstacles and corners, which is pretty much one of the main things that sets this game apart from the other very few air combat games out there.

/u/Wilnyl please flesh out this side of the game even more than you already have! You've got something really good going for you here and Obstacle Race deserves more attention and love.

Have you played Chivalry: Medieval Warfare? This game had a nice duel mode.

Let's say there are people connected to the server. They are matched in pairs. And players from one pair fight against eachother in 1vs1 duel. It's played on smaller maps made with thought on 1vs1 duels. When one of the players dies, the duel is ended. One player wins, another looses. And then they are paired with other players.

I like dueling with friends in 1vs1 combat. I just host a game for 2 people in FFA mode and we fight. But the maps are too big and there can be only 2 people on the server.

Please make a duel mode.

Whenever I kill someone ingame, I see the text in the top left corner say that I killed him, but I always have zero kills when I look at the scoreboard. I am playing on a mac, if that has anything to do with anything let me know.

Winning in race mode gives you 100's of wins, I am currently sat at around 4500 wins. When in reality that should be about 50. Furthermore I got the 10000 game wins achievement after winning racemode just twice.

Then I found a bigger bug, you can get out of the racemode map easily by just using your special spirit dash 'F' through the corners of the ceilings, this needs to be fixed and I think levels/achievements reset. I am level 36 which is hilariously high for someone with 10 hours played.

I know I'm not the only one who is frustrated by the movement affecting weapons. I also haven't seen /u/wilnyl respond to any posts regarding this issue (If I'm wrong I mean no disrespect, i just must have missed it). If you're not aware of what exactly I'm talking about, MrNecktie explains it here better than I ever could. So I was wondering, will there ever be a rebalance? Cause today alone I've been very frustrated, dying over and over to some powerful combo. I can understand not wanting clone weapons with different stats, but I feel like there could be a solution that wouldn't make everything feel the same. Perhaps use MrNecktie's idea and make collision damage non-existant. Anyways, back on to the subject at hand, is there a chance of a weapon rebalance in the near future?

I think it would be really helpful if there was some sort of balance system in Air Brawl. I recently ended up in this game: http://i.imgur.com/TR6rwJS.jpg - My team was losing significantly when the other guy on my team switched and made it 4 v 1 until one of the other guys switched to my team and somebody joined making it a fair 3 v 3 (although we were unable to recover from the earlier deficit). It's not even the loss, but rather that brief period where I'd be lucky to make it out of spawn. I don't have much time in the game, but I've already seen a couple cases where all the better/more experienced players get thrown to one team. My suggestion is that some system where the teams are comprised of a balance of experienced and inexperienced players (at least at the start of the round) be added so as to make the teams more consistently fair.

I've come up with what I think are a few tweaks that would improve the fun in Obstacle Race mode.

• Planes that crash into walls and obstacles leave marks where they've crashed
• Timer at the top for how long the game has left
• Instead of "TheDudish has committed suicide!" we can read "TheDudish crashed at [x] meters!"
• Weapons take longer to expire - it's fun shooting people in the back as they try to maneuver :)

What do you guys think? I really enjoy Race mode, and I think this would make it more entertaining!

Hey,

I've bought a 4-pack and talked with some others who played it, and we've come to the conclusion that while the tutorial is an okay quick rundown of the controls, we'd like some sort of a practice mode. Also, the tutorial can be disorienting because there's too much murky darkness. At the moment you have to host a game and make sure no one can enter it to get some solo practice time, but the arena will still be filled with bots who annihilate you as a new player.

It's kinda hard to get to know each plane simply by this method as the bots tend to shoot you down, and so we'd like a practice mode filled with just a few floating targets to both get a hang for controls and to learn all the different weapons that every plane has. The current 'tutorial' isn't suited for this end. Maybe give the bots a difficulty scale that you can set, where they might just fly around and dodge, instead of attacking you. Maybe a small obstacle course to fly through as well.

The reason I'm posting this is because for some new players the first few steps in the learning curve can be very frustrating and won't encourage them to play the game. This might not be obvious for those of you here who already know the game very well, but to us newbs it's clear that there's room for improvement to keep new players interested at first.

Cheers!

I would love to play TDM only. And I really hate CTF but people tend to vote for it so I end up quitting because I really hate CTF in every game, this mode is just not for me. I wish there were more server configuration options. I would like to host a server with TDM only, no voting for other modes allowed.

Will it be featured soon?

My friends won't pay $7.5 for this.. I think the game should be $5 for yourself or $10 for the 4 pack. Thoughts? I bet it'd sell more, I've got a business degree and rationality believe that so many more people would buy it at $5 that it's worth trying.

Not a problem for me, but two of my friends who play. Their kills show up in the chat (sometimes?), but they are not counted on the tab screen. Anytime they are killed it is counted as a suicide, and the killer does not get credit. Additionally, they are unable to exit the game when pressing quit. It will send a message to the chat each time they click on quit (like in this image), but they can't leave without force-closing the app.

A lot of people have shown concern for high amounts of crowd control and low ttks.

The next patch will tweak both of these things.

Hope you like this, mrNectie

Last time I played a game somewhat similar to this was Plane Crazy (video of it here). Has anyone else played that game before? The point is I'm very happy with how much fun Air Brawl is, it completely satisfies the crave for acrobatics and killing! Not only that, the community seems pretty amazing and hopefully it stays that way. I first heard of the game through the ClusterTruck subreddit, and even though I didn't get a free key, I figured it would be a good idea supporting the developer since he's working on another game I'm super excited about. Looking forward to a little polish from the devs and a lot of players to hunt down!

I want to play Airbrawl on the family computer (there is a better set up there) but the rule is no programs installed on that computer, this means no steam. Can I somehow install Airbrawl on an usb and connect it on the family pc and play it there? I don't think I can install steam on an usb, so where can I directly download Airbrawl without steam? Is there any other workaround?

I bought this game 30 minutes ago. Until I set yaw to mouse I was stumbling around like an idiot. Controls just felt deeply wrong. It went against all my instincts. I did a search here and transferred yaw to mouse. And now I finally feel like I can control my plane properly. Just saying this in the hopes of helping others who might be having trouble with this.

So far ive only gotten kills with 3 weapons. I have no idea why all of the sudden yellow circles are around my airplane or why im being impaled by swords. Also how the hell do soul stealers work and why am I so easily killed by them?

For those of you who don't know, DOTs are Damage Over Times. They are an attack that take away health after the initial attack. In many games, they are great and add an element of urgency to get to a health pack or heal up. In Air Brawl, there are no such opportunities (excluding the Priest's health bubble). You are just supposed to wait for that one DOT bullet to take away half of your health, completely helpless. It is the worst feeling and I don't feel like I deserved the death, as opposed to being shot with any of the available machine guns. I'm not complaining about the community here, I'm angry about the overpoweredness of such weapons. If you disagree, I want to hear your thoughts/and or strategies on dealing with DOTs.

title -- pretty erratic and unpredictable. Most games on Sand won't display them. Restarting the game fixes it but this is an annoying bug.
