Im going to write what HiRez reveal about the next patch. I might miss something but i will try to get everything in here.

They will go to PTS asap, maybe today or tomorrow if everything works out

Changes:

• Skill based matchmaking added to get a better enviroment for beginners.

• Classes removed from the game, you can now use any ability and weapon that you want. The class specific skins are still useable even though they wont belong to a specific class anymore.

• Abilities are changed to being one mobility slot and one ability slot only and you can mix abilities freely. You can use soar barricade or blink fireball but not soar blink or barricade turret for example.

• The legendary abilities are much stronger now in general

• Armor pieces is removed from the game

• Runes added instead of armor pieces which are dropped in the world at a low rate. You can have 6 runes at a time and will contain bonuses such as giving your chickens more health, increasing your headshot damage or giving you armor/sec. The runes can be gray-legendary.

• Health potions, armor potions, runes and gears can be crafted at forges. Crafting a gear gives eithter a weapon or an ability(?).

• Window vaulting added. Anyone can jump through windows

• Only projectile weapons available. No hitscan.

• Previously class specific weapons can now be dropped as any colour.

• Working on a melee weapon rework.

• Golden chickens drop in the world. They are a currency that can be used to buy skins without real life currency. There will be "full cosmetics" available for purchase, not just a default skin with its colour changed.

• More updates on console comming soon.

• Special gamemodes such as 40v40 comming soon.

• They may add new items or new weapons and rotate others out to keep the meta fresh.
