G’day Forts Fans! Welcome to this week’s update, complete with new map Dueling Vipers 4v4. This update adds a few minor features and fixes which improve team death match, and also includes an important fix which ensures doors are closed after repair. We’re aware of the lobby connection and desync issues, including when joining a battle in progress. These are being investigated.

Dueling Vipers 4v4

High up in the middle eastern mountains, two ancient snakes are caught in time about to strike at each other. Or at least that’s what it looks like. Attached to their faces are four forts apiece, with three differing styles of play: standing, hanging and cliff face. Whichever you choose, the battle is sure to be intense!
