Today we have upgraded Account Management:

• You can now link multiple Steam or Oculus accounts to your Rec Room account.
  
• You can also change the Steam or Oculus account linked to your Rec Room account.
  
• Example 1: Let's say you have a Steam account "CoolGirlSteam" and an Oculus account "CoolGirlOculus". You can now share one Rec Room Member account between them, so you can login on either device and be the same Rec Room player!
  
• NOTE: You can only be logged in with one linked account at a time.
  
• Example 2: Let's say you started playing on Steam profile "CoolGirl01" and made it to level 10 as a Rec Room Member. For whatever reason, you now want to use a different Steam profile "CoolGirl02". Start Rec Room as CoolGirl02, and you'll get a new Rec Room Guest account. Use the kiosk to sign up as normal, and use the same email address as you did for CoolGirl01. After you provide your Rec Room password, you'll be prompted to merge the guest account into your existing Level 10 Member Rec Room account. Any new avatar items and friends will be imported from the guest account.
  
• IMPORTANT! When you do this, you should immediately quit and restart Rec Room so that you're logged in with the right Member account. Otherwise any more progress you make on the Guest account will be lost. We hope to make this smoother/more automatic in the future.
  
• You can unlink accounts by visiting your profile page:

• NOTE: You must have at least one linked account...

Also:

• Fixed some bugs that you reported! Thanks!

Also:

• New visual effect that makes it much easier to see who is talking!

• New Report feature. If a player is violating the Code of Conduct, please report that player and specify the reason why. This will also initiate a vote kick, and ghost (ignore) that player. To initiate a report, use your watch menu. Note that we will continue to improve this UI over time. We're getting the backend in place first.

• Internal tweaks to how the vote kick system works
  
• New splash screen that makes it clearer that kids under 13 are not allowed in Rec Room

• You can now see the actual time on your watch!!!
  
• Don't forget that as a Rec Room member you can create "Invite Only" rooms! With this feature, you can play with only your invited friends if you prefer. Tutorial video for this coming soon!

As always, thanks for playing Rec Room. We welcome all feedback positive and negative, so keep it coming! We have lots of fun stuff in the works for you, so we'll see you in the Locker Room and please be excellent to each other =]

We got lots of feedback the paintball shotguns were too powerful. We just pushed a minor update that scales them back a bit!

Happy Rec Rooming!

We're back from break and just pushed our first update of the new year. This is a small one, just getting back into the swing of things. It includes:

• Special "Class of 2016" item for members who joined before midnight Dec 31st 2016
  
• Longer detentions for vote-kicked players (especially players who've racked up lots of vote kicks)

Happy new year, and we look forward to having fun with y'all!

Here's what's new...

• Rec Room members can now create Invite-Only games.
  
• As the name suggests, Invite-Only games allow you to play only with your invited friends. So if you want to play in a controlled environment, this is how to do it!
  
• To create an Invite-Only game, go to your watch and select the "Create" button at the bottom of the "Play" menu:

• Once you're in your Invite-Only room, use your friends list to invite others!

• There's a new space to enjoy in Rec Room! Welcome to The Lounge:

• The lounge is an invite-only event room and hangout space suitable for all kinds of VR gatherings...
  
• E.g., something we've been enjoying is Rec Room poker night:

• The Lounge is Invite-Only, so you must be a member to create and invite your friends.
  
• We think of this as "version 1.0" of the lounge. We want to hear your thoughts, recommendations and requests for how we can make it better! Don't forget to send us your feedback...

• Enjoy a freeform game of 3D Charades with friends in The Lounge!
  
• No rules, no timers, just a selection of random cards, and the 3D Pen to play with...
  
• Let us know what you think! We know some people preferred the more freeform version of 3D Charades before we added the podiums, etc.

• The flag carrier now has a longer teleport cooldown, to make CTF games a little more competitive.
  
• We did this in response to your feedback. Let us know what you think... Like it? Hate it? Should flag carrier move even slower?

• We've added a fun new tool to Rec Room. The whiteboard:

Why would you want a whiteboard?

• Draw a picture!
  
• Keep score in a game you play with friends in The Lounge
  
• Have a VR meeting!
  
• Just as with The Lounge, we think of this as a version 1.0. Please tell us what you think, and how we could make whiteboards more useful for you.
  
• For now, whiteboards are only available in The Lounge, and there's one in your Dorm Room.

We've made some more updates to Ghost Mode (some context here). Here's what's new:

• Ghost Mode now happens quicker - press and hold the Menu button for one second (was two). Or select it immediately via the watch menu.
  
• Ghost Mode now works in selected games (3D Charades, Disc Golf, Paddleball). Previously, Ghost Mode was disabled when a game was in progress. Ultimately we'll make it available in all situations, but that's going to take us a bit longer.
  
• Ghost Mode long press now works even if you have something in your hand. Previously you had to drop the item first.

Show your (dis)approval with the new thumbs up and down gestures!

We've added some features to the Rec Room Profile Page (accessible via any web-browser):

• You can access your profile here!
  
• Login with your Rec Room member name (or email) and password
  
• You can now change your Display Name at any time!
  
• You can also change your password, or issue a password reset if you forgot.

Also from your profile page (accessible via any web-browser):

• Click on "Friends" to see your friends list
  
• Click on "Find new friends" to search for Rec Room members by name
  
• Send a friend request with a single click!
  
• You can now make friends with a guest (previously, both players had to be members). Just shake hands, and it should work =]

• Rack space is now handled better when you have a lot of avatar items in the dorm room
  
• Fixed bug where mystery item could appear in center of the room
  
• Fixed bug where some players would receive empty boxes (sorry about that)

PS Yes we realize how ugly the profile website is =] We'll fix it next year.

Thanks as always to everyone who plays and provides feedback! Keep it coming =]
