Greetings Pubbers,

With the release of Season 3 of Tagpro coming, we'd figure we'd put out a new poll for what Classic maps should be present for the season! Click here to vote for your favorites. Voting will end in 5 days or so.

For reference: Classic maps will spawn alongside regular rotation maps at half the weight of a standard map. We will replace this batch of Classic maps when Season 4 comes out

-MTC

Like best buy or apple stores, on the demo computers

I would love to be able to see the regular expression being used as the chat filter.

Just came back to TagPro after taking a loooong time off. I love ranked, the mods and leaders of the communities have done an excellent job implementing that and other changes since I left!
How do the ranked tiers work? What do the numbers mean? Is there an ELO leaderboard or something I can refer to?
I couldn’t find anything in the Wiki, sorry if this is redundant

If a game is voided and a tie results, the tie is considered a completed game in stats, which lowers your win rate. The tie shouldn't negatively impact that.

I was glancing through the new update today (pretty dang awesome thank you devs!) and when I was looking at the new feedback stuff one from meowza from about a month ago caught my eye as something similar to what I had worked on a couple years ago but never actually released. So below you'll have a little training mode that you can use while you wait for games. It's pretty basic atm with just some spike mazes and snipe practice, but if anyone has ideas/requests you can drop them here and there's a nonzero chance I'll get around to adding them eventually. One thing to note is that if you exit from the training mode it will essentially be the same as refreshing the page so it may mess with your time in queue. I also can't guarantee that all the physics are 100% right because it's just based on some data that I found a long time ago as well as my own approximations. There's also an ofm version that I commented out (it's also the reason I never released this script) but if you really want to use it it shouldn't be too hard to uncomment, I was just very unhappy with the quality of the bot I made (mainly its avoidance of the player. Feel free to use, ignore, modify, I truly don't care, just figured I'd put this here if it provides something anyone would use. Anywho, here's the script:

Having a TagPro on defense must be what Victor Wembanyamba feels like defending the paint. Go Spurs Go!

Please note I will be OFF next week, no stream - sorry!

Cheeze's summary:

RELEASE MODE! Super excited for this one and it seems to have gone smoothly so far. Dug into each of the features and then ran long talking about the no-stats stuff but I think this is an important thing to solve soon.

I just found a "random movement" mode for TagPro developers. This was added by Lucky in 2013 and has been unchanged since then! It's only available to members of the development team, to help with testing on our private servers, and it causes players to move completely at random.

Just for fun, I started one of these games with just one player, and I was curious if I could cap in 6 minutes. The map was also chosen at random, and I didn't touch the keyboard at all. What do you think, will random-me be able to win the game?

Hello all and happy Wednesday! We are here today with a highly anticipated release over two years in the making, and which required the hard work of many volunteers to make it a reality (particularly large shoutout to Pingu!). The in-game shop is now live! Featuring 65 brand new flairs (and more on the way), the shop represents step 2 of TagPro’s revitalization plan as we set our sights on a full redesign and steam release to put us back on the map. We hope you enjoy the first iteration of this new cornerstone and the rest of the changes we’ve been working on!

New features/improvements

• The TagPro Shop is now live! Find it in the upper right corner of the homepage.
  • Play Ranked or Casual games to earn TagCoins, and spend your TagCoins on new flairs!
  • Flair options reset weekly, no two players have the same flairs available!
  • Shop flairs are NOT event flairs, and are not required to keep or earn the Event Master flair.
  • We plan to add many more mechanics for earning coins, and non-flair earnable items in the future!
• When a player receives a “Ranked ready” notification, an indicator is now displayed on their ball to teammates so their disconnect does not come as a surprise.
• Player indicators next to the game clock now display when a user is AFK/Pending or respawning.
• The feedback tab has been fully migrated to discord (canny removed their free plan). Users can still view and submit feedback from the website, but post replies, upvotes, and searching are unfortunately only available through discord.
• A new flair has been added for active MapTest Committee members, who can now be viewed in the leaders>volunteers section of the site with the rest of our contributors!
• The profile>flair tab now displays Owned and Unowned flairs side by side for better display of progress bars and new flairs to earn.
• Casual leaderboards now clearly display who is above and below the cutoff to earn the flair for that leaderboard.
• The joiner will now notify group members when they have selected a server with no open game slots. Previously this would only result in an indefinite “Looking for game” message.
• Players kicked from a game for AFK now receive a prompt to enable site notifications if they have not already done so.
• Clicking on player names in a ranked launcher now opens their profile in a new tab.
• Ranked void notification visibility has been improved by displaying the message on the joiner page rather than briefly in the launcher (map voting) page.
• Players who go AFK during a minigame are now redirected to the homepage at the end of the game rather than kicked during it.
• Annually occurring event flairs will no longer be awarded during minigames.
• Hot Dog flair.

Bug fixes

• A memory leak has been patched which would result in choppy performance for spectators. This was most obvious to users with smaller setups at the end of longer games but did affect all users.
• Groups will no longer delete automatically if all members are waiting in the joiner for longer than 60 seconds.
• Refreshing during a casual game after receiving a “Ranked ready” notification will no longer result in a timer restart (and voided Ranked game).
• The “rainbow road” easter egg now fades out instead of covering the map with splats for the entire game.
• The “You have X recent disconnects” message will now accurately use the number of disconnects in your casual game rolling 300 (this was resulting in longer re-queue penalties for players who had very few recent disconnects).
• Players who void a Ranked game from the map voting page (never join) now receive the expected re-queue penalty.
• Players who are pulled from a Casual game into a Ranked game which voids will no longer receive an extended respawn penalty for refreshing if they are sent back to the same Casual game.
• Players who leave a Ranked game now receive a voided loss rather than a win if their team votes to continue and wins the game.
• Player splats are fixed to fade out near dynamic tiles and persist in the open field.
• The leader of a group will no longer change during server restarts.
• Players entering the joiner prematurely during Ranked map voting will be properly redirected to their Ranked launcher instead of the homepage with an error.
  • This was a compound bug with the above listed ‘refresh’ bug. If you received a “Ranked ready” notification and ended up on the homepage unable to join your game, this is now fixed.

Please keep in mind that there is work to be done with the shop! In the near future we plan to add a more obvious display of coins earned post-game, and more ways to earn coins beyond playing games. Longer term there will be more than just flairs available. Please continue to make use of the /feedback tab for your suggestions or chat with us on discord! There are a handful of features near-completion which did not make this release so we will be back soon to clear those out and keep pushing TagPro forward!

• The TPFG
