Super MNC Rule Changes 8:

Free Pro Rotation: Captain Spark, Cheston, Megabeth, Sniper, Support, Tank
We at Uber Entertainment hope everyone in the United States had an enjoyable, safe, and restful Memorial Day! We did, which results in a shorter week and a slightly smaller update.

This week we are taking aim at improving our match quality. The big step we're taking is that teams of five are only going to matched with other teams of five. Teams of two or solo players will be matched together. This means that we've removed the ability to group up in teams of three or four. If you only have a team of three or four, what better way to get to know your fellow players than to invite them into your team?

As always, feel free to leave us feedback at http://www.uberent.com/forums! If you have issues please emailsupport@uberent.com

Super MNC Rule Changes: 29

Rule Changes 29! You said it wouldn't hurt but it does...
You gave us feedback, we listened! You didn't like Uber Points, we removed them! All former Uber Point unlocks are shown via a dollar amount. Foreign currencies will be calculated when the purchase is made through Steam. Any Uber Points you have left over can be used as store credit. The conversion rate gives the best dollar value for players based on the old Uber Points scheme. What better way to check out the new, straightforward unlocking than with our new bundles?
Along with several balance changes and new weapons, another big change this week is "Classic" weapons. We are introducing rarity to our items by making some of the weapons that were purchasable last week "Classic" and removing them from the store. They are still currently available through the Prize system... for now.

Super MNC Rule Change 27

It's a monster, huge, amazing update this week. We have taken all the uniforms and split them up into head gear, torso gear and leg gear! You can now mix and match parts of uniforms to your liking. These gear parts are also added to the Prize tables so you might get a gear piece for a post game Prize! Check out the system with an awesome new Assassin uniform called "Stab Demon". This tech also allows us to finally grant the "Throwback MNC Veteran" uniforms to anyone who owned Steam MNC before Feb 29th, 2012. Don't worry, this isn't the final cut off, but this lets us flex the system before setting the final date.

We are also introducing a new test version of our matchmaking system! In the "Play" menu you can click on "Matchmaking Test". It does not currently support teams. You can opt-in to multiple regions. Matches might take a little longer to find due to the complex nature of trying to get you a well matched game. Feel free to give it a test run and leave us feedback!

Finally we fixed up large group of annoying bugs, improved performance in several areas and started using a new patching system that should reduce future update sizes.

As always, feel free to leave us feedback at http://www.uberent.com/forums! If you have issues please emailsupport@uberent.com.

Super MNC Rule Changes: 22

You are my rule changes... you are my rule cha-ha-ha-hangess. You are the one... in my life! (+2 points if you get the reference!)

Happy Valentine's Day from all of us at Uber Entertainment! We have released an entire set of Valentine's Day uniforms and taunts. Awesome taunts that come complete with props and effects. Show off the love you have for your own skill level to the person you just fragged!

We have some amazing, new, large systems we're working on internally so the balance and feature changes are slightly lighter this week than most weeks. The Tank underwent some weapon rework, somewhat returning both weapons to previous functionality. ProTip: Get up close and personal with the Tank! We also did some adjustments to Assassin grappling, improved sharpshooter rifles and continued the range normalizations we've been doing for a few updates now.
