Simon & Schuster Interactive have today announced that the first downloadable update for their game, Outlaw Volleyball is now up and ready to download on Live! In addition to a new character this download will also fix several problems that have been croppingup in online games; check the complete list below!
* "Trix" is Not for Kids - Just in time for going back to college, S&SI introduces the first downloadable character for Outlaw Volleyball. "Trixie," a member of Sigma Theta Delta (STD) sorority, is the only girl on campus who can be seen wearing knee pads to class for "extra credit."
* Improvements to Live gameplay:
1. Ranking System Improved - Gamers can be ranked in four different types of game modes so players of all skill levels can can see who is number one.
A. The Quickie - 7 point, single game, rally, win by 2, any difficulty.
B. The Beach Brawl - 15 point, best of 3, side out, win by 2, any difficulty.
C. The Outlaw - 7 point, best of 5, rally, no win by 2, only Tour Skills
D. The Iron Man - 21 point, best of 5, rally, no win by 2, any difficulty
2. Defaulting the voice mask to... NONE.
3. Players will now see their opponent's rank BEFORE playing them. Never be outclassed or blown away by another player.
4. Timed Pause - We are implementing a "Timed Pause" feature that gives each team (3) thirty second pauses after which the other player can choose to end the game with a win if they are close to winning, or a loss if it is too early in the game. The person who paused meanwhile will either get a loss or a drop. So if you are playing a friend (or someone who is being cool) you can still choose to wait until they return. But if someone is trying to get you to quit on purpose this will cover you.
5. Elimination of the cheat that maxes a character beyond their normal tour skills.
