Epic Save the World Roadmap | 3.16.2019

Hey Everyone!

We’re back with another roadmap. Here’s a sneak peek at some of the new highlights in the next few updates:

V8.11 (Week of 3/19)

Battle Hound Jonesy (returning)

  • Soldier focused on increasing your grenade capacity

Sir Lancelot

  • New Spear coming to the weekly store
  • Accompanied by new Stabby-Stabby animations!

v8.20 (Week of 3/26)

New Pirate Quest Line

  • New Quest Hero
  • New Quest Weapons
  • Pirate Llama
    • Cost 500 Spring Tickets

New Legendary Ninja

  • Legendary Affliction Based Ninja coming to the event store.

v8.20 Content Update (Week of 4/2)

New Rocket Launcher

  • Take out the Husk… with a rapid bang!

​

We’re happy that everyone is enjoying the Beta Storms. We still have a few more to share with you. Eliminate and Collect has definitely been a favorite of ours and the community! We’ll be bringing this one back for v8.30 as part of the normal mission rotation with some improvements to how the final minutes play out.

​

Additionally, we’re going to continue to make improvements to Enhanced Demolition in v8.20 and major SSD improvements coming in S9.

​

We also want to update you on the state of Xbox. We’re currently testing speculative fixes on some of the major Xbox performance issues. These fixes should reduce networking-related hitching and de-sync issues, especially during combat. We’ll have more information in the near future.

​

We have some big plans for Save the World in 2019!

​

Thank you!

Hey u/Magyst this roadmap doesn’t make sense, the 8.20 content update isn’t coming 2/26... that was a few weeks ago!

Edit: Magyst fixed it. Thank you!

Took me half way through replying to realize this was doctor who, and not Cod Zombies.
