### BATTLE ROYALE UPDATES

*The new Battle﻿ Royale map is finally finished! We are very happy and excited to finally be able to release this second Battle Royale map. As some of you might already know is that this new Battle Royal﻿e map is a little bit diffe﻿rent than the old Battle Royale map.*
*We will go through all the changes and explain everything as clear as possible for you ﻿guys.*

* The new Battle Royale map is a SECOND Battle Royale map meaning that players can now choose what map to play. The new Battle Royale map IS NOT a replacement.
* The new Battle Royale map is called "Tropico" and the old Battle Royale map is now called "Arena".
* Added so that when players select the Battle Royale game mode they can choose what map they want to play.﻿
* Tropic﻿o is a SOLO ONLY Battle Royale map meaning grouping / name tags / clan tags are disabled. Please keep in mind that anyone we see grouping will be punished.
This new Battle Royale map h﻿as a warm-up lobby too, just like the old Battle Royale map.
* On the new Battle Royale map player spawns work different: Instead of everyone spawning randomly in the world (like on the old map) everyone spawns in the centre of the map. All players will spawn in a big circle with in the middle a military place with a lot of good loot.
* Players will be able to join the action instantly by﻿ running to the middle or run away into the world and play more 'safe'. We are very excited to see how players are going to play this new kind of Battle Royale.﻿﻿
* WARNING: Please keep in mind that this is the first release of the map. Expe﻿﻿c﻿t﻿ ﻿﻿﻿bugs / glitc﻿hes, we will do our best to fix those instantly.
* We will also keep updating the map based on the feedback from our players. Changes will most likely happe﻿n﻿﻿.
