Patch Notes/Season 1.02 Patch

Season 1.02 Patch are patch notes that were released on September 8th, 2022 for MultiVersus.

General

 * Gizmo will be arriving on 09/08! He has his popcorn and is ready to pop off!
 * Spectator Mode now displays Team Colors properly
 * Fast settings have been added to support lower-end PCs

Hitbox/Hurtbox Update



 * Hurtboxes updated on every character.
 * Hitboxes updated on most attacks. Specific adjustments may not be listed in the character notes.

Projectile System Update

 * Standardized opposing projectiles to always clank, destroying both projectiles
 * Introduced the Heavy Projectile - Heavy Projectiles break enemy projectiles, can only clank with other Heavy Projectiles, and cannot be reflected
 * Barriers and buffs that “Block Projectiles” more consistently block all projectiles.
 * Projectiles that explode no longer hit fighters that blocked the projectile.

Directional Action Key Mappings for Keyboard

 * Directional Attacks and Specials can now be mapped to specific keyboard keys. For example, Down Attack can be mapped to a key so that you can perform Down Attacks without also Fast Falling.
 * In total, there are 8 new keyboard binds: Up Attack, Right Attack, Down Attack, Left Attack, Up Special, Right Special, Down Special, Left Special.

Miscellaneous Gameplay Updates:

 * Adjusted character mesh vertical offsets so that characters’ feet don’t clip into the floor as much. This change also involved adjusting the floor collision for the following maps: Scooby’s Haunted Mansion, Cromulons, Cromulons (1 vs 1), Tree Fort (1 vs 1), and all versions of Sky Arena.
 * Wall, floor, and ceiling bounces no longer restore Dodge Meter energy.
 * Improved input handling when an Attack/Special is executed at the same time as a jump. In the past, it was possible for jumps to interrupt Attacks and Specials, thus leading to “ignored” actions. This change will improve the responsiveness of short hop Attacks and Specials.

General Perks

 * Clear the Air - Updated description text to explain that perk effect only applies to non-Heavy Projectiles.
 * Ice to Beat You! - Projectiles will only apply Ice debuff to fighters that are not already debuffed by Ice.
 * I'll Take That - Unstacked cooldown refund decreased from 0.5 seconds to 0.25 seconds.
 * Make It Rain, Dog! - Unstacked projectile speed buff reduced to 10% from 20%.
 * Sturdy Dodger - Fixed an issue where the perk would not stack properly.

Maps

 * 2v2 Tree Fort Map - Trampoline tree health reduced to 15 from 30.
 * Trophy's E.D.G.E. - Fix minor asymmetry in the main platform’s collision so that it is now perfectly centered.
 * Cromulons and Cromulons (1 vs 1) - Added a new floating platform to both versions of Cromulons.
