Howdy everyone! Welcome to Patch 0.1.13!

[b]Wait, FC, as in Football Club?[/b]

• [b]Header Action[/b]: Picture one-timers...with more [i]heads[/i].
• [b]Scott Sterlington[/b]: The island’s premier goalkeeper will leap dive and kick balls striving for that elusive clean sheet.
• [b]The Wall[/b]: A dynamic human barricade that will change as the game progress. They are prepared to block your hardest shots…or so they believe…
• [b]Sensitive Players[/b]: Embracing a storied football tradition, Hockey FC will honor aficionados by vocalizing their grievances and lingering on the ice a tad too long after a hit.
• [b]Larger goals[/b]: We promise this won’t make it any easier.
• [b]Masterful dribbles[/b]: Hockey FC's strikers dazzle with their shifty footwork, making you second-guess those attempted bodychecks.
• [b]A soccer ball:[/b] It’s like a white inflated puck with some black spots....[i]and it bounces.[/i]

[b]Gameplay[/b]

• [b]New alternate Act 1 Boss added: Hockey FC[/b] [quote=author] Now, you'll have a 50% chance of facing the new Hockey FC team instead of the Referees. This is part of our ongoing campaign rework process. Stay tuned for more alternate bosses and elite teams in the future! Additionally, as previously mentioned, some existing teams will receive reworks.[/quote]
• [b]Improved pass reception and aiming[/b] [quote=author] We've increased the accuracy and reception of passes, which also improves pass interception accuracy on all difficulties.[/quote]
• [b]AI Changes[/b] [quote=author] We've made adjustments to players' positioning in defense, dangling, and individual movement. The AI will now provide a better sense of challenge, especially at higher difficulty levels. Players will need to be more accurate when pokechecking and bodychecking, as opponents are now more evasive when in control of the puck.[/quote][list]
